#deciphering dreams

So I made a spell jar for better dreams and placed it under my pillow, and I feel like it’s genuinely helping. The small bits and pieces I’ve been able to recall this past week have been a lot more pleasant and peaceful.

Last night’s dream though- last night I dreamt of my ex again. This is kind of fucked up, but I remember a mutual friend I haven’t seen or spoke with in a long time approached me and asked what I did to my ex, that he was in hysterics and was begging him to see if I’d talk to him. I felt annoyed but said okay, and he like crept in the room, tears streaming down his face, he was miserable and wanted me back. I felt grossed out and just disgusted at the sight of him. I don’t have any idea how it got to this but he ended up curled up on the floor naked and crying and I remember feeling so much bigger than him, empowered even. This all sounds so fucked up as I type it out, but when I woke up I felt way better somehow. Like the other dream about him brought so many memories back, and in this dream I got to very dramatically carry out some sort of subconscious vengeance that felt super good.

5 Steps To Decoding Your Dreams

1. Upon waking, write down your dream in detail.

2. After your dream is written down, take a moment to breathe and feel what the title should be. After you have a title for your dream that “feels right”, write it down.

3. To explore the dream, look at the title. The title often shows what direction the dream is going in or what the dream is pointing towards. Here are some examples of my dream titles.

Exploring The Limited Options

The Master Key Holder

Making The Grade

Hindering The Beauty

Feminine or Masculine Approach

Dream Building

Uncovering The Tomb

The White Flag

Finding The Cure

Released To Drive

The titles of your dream reveal a lot.

So I was feeling really anxious early this morning. Sin kept trying to enter into my mind. And honestly, doesn't it feel good to think about sin sometimes? Be real. You have to fight it because the flesh wants it. I know the enemy attacks us in our weakest areas. So I bound him up real quick, prayed and fell asleep listening to scripture. I asked God to reveal what it was He wanted me to know in a dream. So I immediately dreamt about someone standing at my door, in a house I'd never been in, a big, beautiful house. I couldn't see the man's face at the door. Just his sandals in his hand. He kept ringing the doorbell, but I was too afraid to answer it. Because I was alone in the house, and I thought it was some kind of predator! Buuuut. WAIT.

Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.

Revelation 3:20

I didn't hear his voice, all I heard was the doorbell ringing. Because that was what I was focused on. I wasn't listening for a voice. But I knew the man at the door knew I was home, which was why he stood there, waiting. Then I woke up.
