Interpretations (from the 10th)
In this section, I’ll use numbered notes so that while referencing a particular part of the dream, it will be easier to go back to the dream, and find the point I am talking about.
Many possible interpretations have been coming to me since I’ve had the dream. This morning, when I lied in bed unable to fall back asleep, I settled into deep thought about the dream. One thing that stands out most clearly is that I’ve seen the Sea Creature and the Fish Man before. I have the dream recorded in a previous blog, which is on myspace, (in an older post, maybe on the third page back in blog section) dated from about 3 years ago. I also added it to the side notes on the right of this blog. (as I mentioned in an earlier part of this article) And, that I have also recently read about an author’s experience that while he on the drug DMT, whereas he saw a fish-like man, described word for word, exactly like my Fish Man.
In retrospect, the difference between the dream from years ago, and a dream like this one, where old friends make appearances, and you are at the will of the story as it unfolds, (normal dream) and the one from years ago, is that the dream from years ago was an astral projection. If you are reading this and don’t know what an astral projection is, (aka. Out of body experience, and sometimes mislabeled as lucid dreaming) just google it or something.
Okay this is where I’ll have to make yet another a little disclaimer to readers: To those who are unfamiliar with Metaphysics, various genres of spiritualism, as well as the concepts of multi-dimensional realities, this is going to sound completely whacked. Although, there will be others who will “get me”. (Excuse my lame use of vocab here), but some people can “go there” in this kind of a conversation. They’re usually people who feel an affinity with the notion of other-realms of existence, either because of personal experiences, or because the may just have an “innate knowing”. I believe that these are also people who feel they have always known there is more to be learned of the universe around us, than is shown to us through the small percentage of brain activity we are able to use and thus perceive. On the other side of the spectrum, psychologists will argue that dreams are no more than a reflection of one’s inactive subconscious. I do believe this is definitely what creates 99% of our dreams. Yes, dreams are mostly psychological. But just as well, I believe that on occasion, dreams also serve as psychic experiences, weather by accident, or by some cosmic gift, or even a glitch in the system. Just ask Edgar Cayce.
(Update October 23rd: My intrepretations from the first couple days of having the dream, really needed more time to soak in. I made assumptions too fast. Some of this may still be correct, but others, maybe not. I realize now that this dream means very little. What's happened since that time is what mattered. For example, the glowing energy balls I said were negative, I take it back. I don't beilve in negativity, it has no place in my life, and is irrelevant to my story.)
(1.) “The whale’s alter ego?”
Before the whale was shot, I pleaded with the fishermen and crew not to slay the whale. I walked over with a crew member to the window where the Fish Man was and tried to talk to him about it, only to have him ignore us. I told the crew member, “That’s the whale’s alter ego”. I think that moment held significance, and this is my attempt to figure it out.
Implying that the whale had an alter ego, would also imply that the Fish Man and the Whale were one in the same, or the separate parts of a single entity. In my dream, it was clear to me that I was at the LA River, and in this dimension, the here-now. (And, in this dimension whales do exist. But, in this dimension, Fish Men do not exist.) So, if they were one-in-the-same, and the Fish Man were a counterpart to the earth bound whale, one possibility might be that they invisibly, and simultaneously share this plane with us, while navigating through the bodies of large sea creatures.
I don’t know. The possibilities are endless. If anything, the possibility of intelligent, spiritually evolved sea creatures might also be affirmed through the common belief that whales and dolphins are multi-dimensional creatures. (Able to exist in two realms at once.) It’s been a reoccurring theme in lots of books, like Robert Anton Wilson’s “Illuminatus”. Dolphins also co-star as highly evolved creatures in “A Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”. There are so many other examples, but I can’t think of any more right now.
(2.)The "Whales Emotions"
The part of the “Whales Emotions” is definitely strange, and worth noting. Looking back, I remember the emotions playing an important part of the dream. The fisherman who was working on the Whale (I think I need to make clear that I‘m not talking about “the fish man” these are two separate characters) The fisherman asked me if I wanted to keep the Whale's Emotions as though they were some extra body part they’d have no need for. Indeed, the “whales emotions” looked like an extra body part. It was a sack of skin the fisherman had cut out from the inside of the whale and gave to me. In regards to the scary scene I was made to watch in the “viewing room“, I now have the sense that these “emotions” were generated from inside of the whale, like an emotion collecting mechanism. That is of course, assuming that this were more than a simple dream.
Is that what the purpose of the whale actually served as? To act like an “emotion generator”, in which people were made to sit inside, and witness terrifying acts, in order for some kind of mechanism to generate copies of human emotion? Is this making sense?
(3.)The Fire Demons
What is most unsettling about the dream is obviously the violent birth of the fire demons. It was a stressful few minutes for me as the dreamer. Being chased by anything in dreams for me is very scary.
Jeremy and Benny got off of the bus as normal, happy people. They decided to take a detour to the river below to see if they could find any beached whales. I think this part of the dream served as the “moral of the story” in depicting through dream metaphor, the ignorance of man kind. That though they are subjected to spiritual piracy by parasitical negative entities, they repeat and attract the negativity over and over, completely unaware of their destructive cycles, yet innocent, because of low levels of spiritual evolution. I believe that lots of people we might run into on a daily basis are carry parasitical negative entities that might drain a persons natural lust for life. These might be the ultra depressed, the drug addicted, and generally afflicted. Hey, that rhymed.
(4.) An Epilouge by a Spirit Guide?
During the end of the dream, I was shown a narration of images, which included a tiny glowing embryonic ball of energy which zipped through the river waters in search for a host to attach it’s self to. I believe that this is a representation of negative energy, floating freely without a host. I realize now that this mix of images and words shown to me may have been a Spirit Guide. (Spirit guides are said to be like "helper spirits" who aid incarnated spirits during times of emotional stress. In this instance, the narrating voice is offering a moral to the lesson at hand.) But, back to the ball of energy in the image at the end of the dream; in metaphysics, it’s often suggested that negative energy is vacuous, and entities affiliated with lower vibrational frequencies need to attach to entities on a higher vibrational frequency in order to survive. Imagine a group of people at the bottom of a well, clawing at each other, trying to grab on to higher rocks in order to reach the top of the well, and hopefully get out, or rather, ascend. This is the way I imagine the exchange might take place between entities of higher and lower vibrational frequencies. And again, it’s the parasitical entities mentioned in the above paragraph.
Why Oceanic Creatures?
Could it be that the reason oceanic creatures are often seen by people in visions, astral projections, and other psychic experiences be that water is an element which is capable of the generating, and forming of portals between dimensions and oceanic worlds, which cross through our oceans, and or get mixed up in our visions? Could it have something to do with our Etheric bodies? (The “Etheric” body, is in metaphysics, said to be a body that lives in harmony with our physical body, and astral body. The Ethric body has been said to be made up of some percentage of water vapor, creating what is known as a substance called “Ectoplasm“. I think. If I have it correctly.)
October 16th, 2008
I would have added this as another blog, but it would have appeared on top of the dream I wrote, instead of under it, and I can't figure out how to show older posts first...
Another point worth noting that has recently occurred to me, is the question of Astral Projection, and their relation to normal dreams, and weather or not they are actually one-in-the-same. But "feel different" only because of being under the laws of different environmental physics. (i.e. other dimensions) Astral Projections almost have a physical attribute to them. Sometimes I have the sensation of physicality in my sense of touch, in my sense of smell, and in sense of hearing. Astral Projections are felt in full consciousness, and unlike "normal dreams" I am able to navigate through them with full awareness. (the same kind of awareness that I am able to write this blog, and you are able to read it in, full consciousness) Usually "normal dreams" are had at the mercy of the story.
Now, in my astral projection from 2005, what happened was I came on to the astral plane through the projection, into what I described as a "water world", and this is where I saw the fish-like man, and the giant sea creature. I saw them in their natural habitat. The fish-like man never saw me, but the sea creature did. I seemed to be navigating through their world, undetected. Imagine for a moment, their world in a physical form, and what I am pondering is weather I was moving through their environment as an invisible form, like a ghost if you will.
In this "dream" I had from a few days ago (actually last week now) the setting took place in the "here-now", this dimension - The LA River. Just as well, it was all seen through the lens of the "normal dream". But, the fishman and sea creature had made appearances. No doubt, they were outside of their world, (which I might assume was that water world as seen in 2005). So the question I am posing is, could it be that an astral projection is a visit in on another realm, where s some dreams might be a visit from another realm into ours? And this difference is what constitutes an Astral Projection from a normal dream, or at least as it may be in this particular case? Does this make sense at all? To some people, I'm sure it sounds completley rediculous, but to others more familiar with metaphysics, and this specific genre of spiritualism, it might be easier to grasp. I don't know; it's out on the table so do with it what you will. I find discecting dreams and visions to be quite an enlightening task, and try not to be ashamed of recording my thoughts on it.
I'VE RUN INTO SOME MAJOR MALFUNCTIONS WITH THIS JOURNAL, PLEASE REDIRECT TO PART 2, OF MY BLOG. Go here:
http://www.majigrail.blogspot.com/
In part 2, I'll be doing chronicles from Oct. 19th through up to current, and I'm about to add a new MAJOR DEVELOPMENT, that I just learned tonight. (oct. 21st)
I suspect that my genetics have been refined down through my family on both sides.
This lineage actually in my father, and both of his parents, as well as my mother. Her last name is De La Vega. That means "Of the Vega". It's a Spanish Sir name, given by the Spanish Conquistadors when they took over the Philippines. So they were the Spanish, "Vega" family. I also learned (Oct. 26th I am writing this particular sentence in:) That Plaicidio De La Vega in fact married one of the last suviving Mayan Princesses, (affirmed by my Uncle Dennis over phone) while the last 2 Incan Princess married into the house of De Loyola. (mother's mother)
Vega is also a star.
Only 15% of people in the world born with RH Negative Blood. In Spain, the Basques people have the highest concentration. Of the Basque population, 45% have RH Negative Blood. (I am RH Negative)
Ignatius De Loyola was Basque of Spain, who founed the Jesuit Order in the 15th century. De Loyola is my Mother's Mother's last name.
Also, My Father & Swedish in him - he's always said he had viking blood. The Mayan God Quetzalcoatl, which translates as "The Bearded Man", was thought to be a Viking.
I read that it was the Viking's from the Tribe of DANA. Now, because I haven't yet looked into the Viking Tribes in depth yet, I'm still unsure of the blood relations there, however...
My Dad's birth name is Dana Eric Smith. He changed it to Eric Dana Smith at age 12, because he thought Dana sounded "girly". I know this is not directly referencing any Dan Tribe, however, there are 6 Dana's in my family including myself, my brother and my cousins. (all same middle name) Now, I'd have to say we are a modern day Dana Tribe.
Meet me on Part 2, and I'll explain everything. Here's the link again.
