I thought this would be a fun topic to discuss since I brought it up with my friends. So, I've always had vivid dreams but my dreams have gotten progressively stranger over this year. I'm not going to attribute them to anything supernatural but rather my worry for the world refracted through my dreams. Have others experienced the same? What are some of your weird lockdown/pandemic dreams? (Please tag or censor is they're graphic. I'll do the same.)
Some of mine... (I keep a dream journal so pulling from there.)
I was in my car with my younger brother who was driving us through one of the neighborhoods we pass through to get to the other side of town. There was a little girl in the road yelling at someone and I yelled at my bro to swerve. He did and then I noticed a giant red cube in the sky but my attention turned back to the road. A teen girl was riding her bike in front of us and the "camera" of the dream zoomed in really close on her shoulders which had freckles made of golden light. Then it zoomed out and I yelled out the window for her to get out of the road but she acted like she didn't hear me. I woke up.
I was in my old neighborhood, just wandering around. I went to the playground I played on as a child and no one was there. The sand turned into lava and the ground started cracking - the next scene I was sitting next to Steppe (character in my New Gods novel/you may have seen him in "Justice League") cross-legged but he wouldn't look at me. He just kept muttering to himself. I held out an object that was like a moving tesseract - it kept turning into a pyramid, a cube, a DNA strand - and I said "I kept this in case you were still alive. Do you want it again?" and then there was a shot of both of us looking up at this demonic looking face in the sky (kinda reminds me of a vision a friend said they had as a kid) Then I woke up.
tw: sickness, disease
My brother was driving my car through a parking lot and the car started spinning in circles while I tried to grab the wheel to make it stop. Then he perfectly slid into a parking space and the car deteriorated, like rusted and rotted around us until only a steel frame was left. Then my nose started running and I was wiping it with a tissue but more kept coming out to the point were I started gagging and woke up.
tw: decay
I was in an apartment complex I now lived in with the family and we had a bottom apartment. We had a huge oak porch on the back and I went out. The sun was setting and there was a wide field with a forest at the end. A lot of people my age were hanging out on this huge porch at tables and whatnot and it just looked like a really fun party. Then I was back inside getting ready to take a shower but my bro didn't clean the shower (somehow in the dream I knew it was his fault). This black mold was all over the curtains and the bottom but it looked more like flaky black bread crumbs then mold. I was trying to wash it down the drain and grabbed a sponge from under the sink. The lights went out in the bathroom and then I woke up.
PS: Right now I'm listen to a rock song called "Oddweird" lmao.
