I had a series of rather bizzare dreams last night and decided I should share them with you all. It started out with me walking through a field that is outside my house (which is there in real life) and walking up to the edge of a forest that I often visit. I do not remember entering, but the next thing I see is a little red headed girl in my place walking through the forest. However the forest is very different to the one in reality. It is much darker than usual and has many pine trees which aren't there in real life. There is also alot of snow on the ground, which would contradict the scene befor this, which was a bright, warm afternoon. Anyway this girl, who i presume is suppose to be me, stumbles across a crying baby. The baby is unharmed but its screams are horrendous. The girl/I look up onto the branch above the baby and I/she notices a very dark coloured raven. The girl and raven engage in conversation, but I do not remember the details of it. All I remember is that the raven told her that he took the baby and planned to do horrible things to it. Weirdly, the girl stays calm and keeps on walking. This brings me to the next 'stage' of the dream. I am myself again, but I am floating on a raft that appears to be made from dead bodies. The raft is in the middle of a lake that I do not recognise. The corpses that make up the raft are trying to communicate with me and drive me mad. I do not remeber what they said, but their voices sounded like hundreds of seashells rubbing off of eachother. The raft then makes its way underneath the shadow of a massive, glass tree that is filled with thousands of fire flies. The tree is on a small island and if it werent for the fire flies, would probably be completely see through. The tree tells me that I would find salvation when I leave the forest. This didn't make sense, since I was already outside the forest. The last stage of the dream had me transported straight to a familiar location. I was in the abbey, which are the local ruins of an old church/abbey in my town. I often visit there with my friends. Anyway, in the abbey with me were dozens of women. Some were dressed in rags, others in fine clothing. Some were very young and beautiful and others were quite old and ugly. They were all walking around conversing, ignoring me. At first glance I would not have recognised any of the women. A rather large, red headed women approached me. She announced that she was the leader of the group and that I had come across a confrence of witches. Witches from all over the world came here to discuss magical ideas. I asked them if they could send me home, which was weird, because my house isn't that far. They agreed to focus all their power on trying to send me home. Out of nowhere chairs appeared and the many dozens of withces seated themselves, including the leader. They all pulled out tamborines, which were hidden in the gravel on the floor of the abbey. Apparently , in my dream, magic is created through song and dance. The witches started playing a tune on their tambourines while singing "lalalala". Eventually, for the big climax, they all got off their chairs and started circling me. They were still singing their tune. The mood changed quickly, going from joyful to anger. The witches were angry at me for something. Among the many faces circling me I recognised different women from my life : My mother, two of my sisters, an old teacher of mine, a few ex girlfriends and others. The circle they formed kept getting closer to me. I decided to break the circle and run. All the witches started chasing me with their tambourines, still chanting their "lalaalal"s. This is when I woke up. I kinda wished I didnt, because I wanted to know the outcome. This was definatley the best dream I have had in a long time.
Additional Comments:
This was one of the more detailed dreams I have ever had. I cant help but be reminded of Alice in Wonderland, with talking animals and whatnot. No idea what it could mean.
