A Strange Dream

Normally, I don't remember dreaming. However, when I do dream I dream in sense/reality mode or warning mode without having my 5 senses affected.

In the sense/reality mode, I am awakened by the reactions of my body to stimulus. I sense another's presence to the point it wakes me.

Example: I once called a friend blasting them as to what their saying meant and I wanted to know why they wanted me to get up. The person whom I called, was sound asleep. Right after the person acknowledged that it was their saying, I forgot what it was that was said. I had never heard that phrase before I said it and that was the odd part.

I feel that I am receptive to certain people in my sleep and that they are able to enter my space and I am able to leave mine on occasion.
                                      
The other type of dreams that I have serve as warnings of danger or death and they are remembered in detail and are rather bizarre.

The dream noted below was had by me yesterday and it is not sitting well with me. However, I don't feel it to be a death dream as it did not hold me in depression. Can anyone try to help me figure this one out as I am not sure how to interpret it.

It starts out in a university where I am going to have a meeting. There is this one guy who everyone thinks is nuts and for some reason I give him 8 dollars.

I then find myself heading to a file room and when I walk in this guy (who I have been talking to on line and who is very involved in a specific network) is in the file room. Upon seeing him in there, I get frightened therefore, I tell him that I must leave and that I will be right back. As I head out of the file room, I see rats...big black shiny rats, big black spiders, and sidewinders in the hall. I don't fear them and I keep walking.

Instead of going to my car which is parked at the university, I start walking down an elevated highway. As I get to the exit ramp I pass three men and their car. Each man is wearing a robe of black velvet. There was a black, Chinese, and white. All were tall and muscular. After I passed them they started to chant and follow me so I turned and headed toward them. That is when I saw them in more detail.

The first one to speak was the black guy who was unhooded from the cloak. He spoke, but I did not hear his words. The second was the Chinese guy whose hood was up and he too was not heard. The last was the white guy who had this hood down, but there was a black band around his head. It too was also velvet and his words were not heard.

After being with them, I headed back to the area of the university and my car. I then woke upright. ~ Maggie ~ 12/16/07 @ 8:47 p.m. EST
