Washing line relief.

It is daytime and I find myself up at my Nan’s house in her back garden everything in the dreamscape seems hyper real and is infused with a beautiful shimmering glassy pearlescent quality just like mother of pearl, this effect often seems to occur when I’m very lucid and my senses and awareness are more heightened than usual.

I am at the end of the long washing line taking fresh clean clothes down from the line and then folding them up neatly and placing them into a laundry basket placed on the garden path.

I’m suddenly surprised by my Mum who pops up as if from nowhere she joins me standing nearby at my side, she looks a little younger, caring, loving and happy. As soon as she appears I feel a huge burden lifted from me, the feeling is one of incredible relief it is very tangible like a release of immense pressure from inside the head or like a lead replica of myself had been pulled out from inside me and carried away on the wind.

My Mum gives me a knowing smile she doesn’t speak but she sends me her thoughts, I sense that she is expressing the feeling that the burden I have been relieved of was something that I exaggerated out of all proportion and was silly to have been so worried about. I look down to the wash basket and see that the clothes I have been folding up are all items of female clothing.

Additional Comments:

Another difficult night for dream recall, in another dream I felt as if I were revisiting another previous dream, from within the dream this actually felt totally convincing but on waking I realised that it was just a false dream memory. This dream had a lot of detail and story mostly concerning espionage and a group of people who wanted to help me. Unfortunately I didn’t have the energy to focus on pulling this one back, it sort of had a bit of the flavour of some of the fever dreams I have where the story seems to loop back on itself and start all over again.

In another dream I am stood in the canteen making a coffee with a particular male colleague he is chatting to me about a duke who has gone to fight in a modern war. I seem to have some kind of misunderstanding (possibly intentional on my part) where I interpret duke as duck, I feel that I was doing this on purpose to belittle the duke.

    Strange fuel in the laundry room.

    I find myself down in a slightly dim laundry room below ground level it’s quite a big space and may even be communal and shared with other people. An unfamiliar dream female friend who is my age is down here with me and we are both helping one another sort out the dirty washing and load up the machines (I feel that I am helping her more than she is helping me).

    After a while of working she takes a pause to go and do something around a corner so I follow her to see what is, she enters a small space where I see a strange kind of hearth or more a log burner.

    The strange thing is that this fireplace isn’t made from cast iron or bricks but has been constructed from small blocks of ice very much in the fashion that an igloo would be made. The lady bends down and takes a chunk of ice out of a coal scuttle full of other chunks and blocks of ice and places it into the fireplace (perhaps it would be more accurate to call it an iceplace!).

    It’s such a strange and peculiar sight that I really feel surprised and perplexed all at once, the unexpected act really brings a smile to my face. The strangest thing of all is that the fire (or ice!) really does seem to be alight and burning with its own strange cold heat and feint pale blue flame?

    As the lady rearranges and stokes the logs of ice in the fire I sense that she seems to be ever so slightly morose or melancholy.

    Happily washing my clothes in a barn.

    It’s daytime and I find myself on a very large farm with a great network of old wooden barns and outhouses, I possibly live at a farmhouse connected to this farmyard area.

    Inside one of the barns are two or three washing machines and a tumble drier all lined up in a row against a wall, it’s a slightly strange set-up what with the straw and animal dung strewn about the floor.

    I have a pair of rubber Wellington boots on to keep the mess and mud of my trousers, I’m currently carrying a large wash basket full of dirty laundry out to the washing machines. I put one load in to wash and then go back into the farmhouse to get some more dirty clothes to launder.

    I repeat this process a number of times and must get through a numerous basket loads which amounts to a huge quantity of clothing. All of the clothes I’ve washed are mine but I feel so happy and cheery doing the laundry that I wouldn’t mind washing clothes for other people or friends if they needed some doing.
