Must Sleep Now Dream / Whatever
We had a group over for a celebration meal (everyone wearing short-sleeves, so summer or fall). Two of the people wanted a food I did not have, so I said drive me to the grocery store, and I'll pop in and get it. Off we went. As I entered the store, I was stunned to see
June, greeted her warmly, and asked how in the world she ended up here. She said she was not sure but had wanted to come. I was going to take her to the car when she said she met a young prince and princess from Spain on the trip and needed to watch over them until their people came for them. As we all were walking to the door, a not-so-nice celebrity saw the kids and was quite interested in them. I stepped between and said the children were with me. We locked eyes for a moment, and he departed.
We go outside and wait at the curb with the children. A group of big SUVs pulls up for the children, and they get in and drive away. I wave to the person driving me, he pulls up, and June gets in the car while turn to go back into the store. Suddenly I hear a commotion and yelling, and see a group of reindeer running through. I hug a large round pillar, and they went around me. I made eye contact with a few, and we knew each other (friendly). Once they had passed through, I woke up.
My Take
This was a must sleep now dream. There are times when I'm going about my day, and I know I must get on the sofa or bed because I'm about to be gone, and there is nothing that will stop it. Also, when I awoke, I staggered to the kitchen and ate chocolate - had to have it. (These situations come on from time to time, and I know the drill. It is either an important message, or action I'm taking in the astral realm, or both. The absolute need for chocolate when I return is another clue.)
The grocery store is a place of things of sustenance, and knowing those two people, I can understand that I needed a little something different for them (got the shot). This goes along with a knowing I have that there is a way to help the shot people, and it is through alternative means.
June and I have talked for years about having personal craft that would allow us to visit or maybe the ability to bi-locate. So, is this type of ability on the horizon, or were June and working in tandem to help out a situation. Don't know.
A prince and princess can indicate new abilities. The exchange I had with that dream person is one that has happened in waking life. I'm passing a person that I sense is very unpleasant, and we lock eyes, knowing exactly who the other is. It is like rival gangs driving slowly by each other and not engaging but clearly indicating who they are. Again, are the children symbols for new abilities, or for children in general who need our help. The interesting part is that June and I worked together on this.
And then the reindeer.... I've actually met a couple of them before, as they were all the way down here at Christmas. I felt very comfortable with them, even more so than our own little deer herd around here. Interestingly, reindeer are the only ones in the deer family where females grow antlers, too.
Reindeer symbolize ability to travel, endurance, and strong inner compass. As dream symbols, they can indicate success in travel, including mystical adventures. There is another aspect to this part of the dream because twice before I've been in similar situations. Once long ago when I was a special ed teacher, we were on a field trip to the FAA (Future Farmers of America) live stock show. It was a great place to see farm animals up close. I was at the rear of the group with a young boy who was on crutches (spina bifida) when there was a commotion and people yelling to clear the area. The rest of the class and adults moved quickly away, but I knew the boy could not. So, I pulled him against a support pillar as a huge, irritated hog ran amuck (300 pounds or more). We were fine, and he thought it was cool to be so close to a hog. The second time I was in the front yard with one of dogs (not on a leash) when I hear barking and feel a pounding sensation from the ground. I look in that direction and see a big dog chasing our deer herd, and they were almost to us. I grabbed our dog and pulled us into a big tree, and the herd thundered by on either side of us.
Soooo - stuff is happening all around and let's keep our eyes open.
