Weird dream, canal tunnel

[Maia]

I always dream with all of my (available) senses, without one predominating. They not degraded though, but rather, heightened, and always tinged with a specific type of emotional signature, as I call it, which is how you know it's a dream. Well, not the only way, but one of the ways you know it's a dream.

This is fascinating and reveals a question.

Outside of a dream, should your senses be somehow heightened in association with an emotional signature, wouldn't you be living the dream, whether or not you knew you were dreaming?

The only way to distinguish the difference between the sleeping dream and the waking dream involves the future. I don't remember ever holding the future as a thought in a sleeping dream because there, attention is limited to immediacy where the future may exist as a feeling such as peace, or hope, or anxiety, etc. Timelines of past and future within the dream get assembled in waking remembrance of the dream, if the dream is not quickly forgotten.

The emotional signatures attached to senses in dreams are very distinctive, and different to those in real life. More intense, usually, but also different in kind. Apart from a few memories from when I was little, I've never been unsure if something was a dream, or reality.

I've just had an emotionally charged dream, or dream segment, I suppose, since it's so short, which I'll describe. I was sitting in a crowded pub in London. I knew it was London, like you do in dreams, even before I heard anyone talking, and this in itself made me very uncomfortable, as I can't stand London. I don't know why I was there, and I don't think it was a moot or anything like that. Almost immediately a guy came and sat at my table, and started chatting me up, very ineptly. His breath stank of booze and he had a really loud, and grating, London accent. I immediately excused myself and stood up, and tried to head to the bar, through the crowd. And that was basically it, really short, but with a strong emotional signature. I'm sure it must mean something.

I'm not sure what you mean by "moot" here.

Do you remember anything that was actually said?

I had an awful zombie nightmare the other night. It was after I was slagging GOD and Christ off over something that I won't go into. I crossed their line again and sometimes when I do that, the GOD system projects THE most evil nightmares. I've since apologised and we are back on good terms

A moot is a Pagan meeting.

He said something like, "I come here because..." then something. I'm not sure now, to be honest. I seem to remember that he became very explicit, very quickly.

Be cause!! ..dammit when we don't recall key moments in non-lucid dreams!

Do you remember what alcohol his breath stank of, beer, whiskey, other?

Lager. And he stank of fags, too.

Did he remind you of anyone you know?

Not really, I don't think. No one springs to mind, anyway.

So if you believe there was something IMPORTANT in the be cause within this dream, your next logical step would be to keep an ear, nose and tactile interpretation of reality out for such a man, hopefully in the near future!

I would probably smell him a mile off. But yes, sound advice.
