Vortex

In this dream, I'm packing up my backpack, getting ready to go on a  hike with Chief. The weather outside is a little grey and cloudy but storms usually pass quickly here, so I decided to set out anyway. We started our way up the mountain when I started to hear rolls of thunder in the near distance. I decided we should turn around and go back to the house. As I'm walking down the mountain, I notice a very distinct low-rumbling sound. We get back to the house and I notice some interesting movements in the clouds above. I notice a rotation in one area of the sky and realize that a small tornado had formed. The rumbling sound I had heard had come from the tornado and I was glad I decided to bring us back to shelter. I found it very odd that there would be a tornado in the mountains. This one was not threatening however, and I just stood there watching it continuously come together and fall apart, over and over. I was intrigued by it and not afraid. As I'm watching it, it begins to change dramatically and now I'm witnessing a very large vortex open up in the sky. It was gray and threatening looking, but I still was not afraid of it. I continued to watch it, knowing that I was witness to some supernatural event. I wasn't sure if I was witnessing an apocalyptic event, but I really didn't care. I was completely drawn in to what I was seeing before me. It seemed comparable to an amazing cosmic event of creation or destruction. I looked briefly to my left and noticed another family with a young boy who were also standing there in awe watching what was happening in the sky. They didn't seem afraid either and were also drawn in to the mystical beauty of the event unfolding above. It had been dark and gloomy, and suddenly, it was as if the sun came out, but rather, the bright intense light was from a rainbow, not the sun. It was so bright, you couldn't look directly at it, but in my peripheral vision, I saw one large rainbow, with others moving and flowing around it, like waves of light, not produced by sun and rain. Suddenly, these rainbow beams of light are flowing in and out of the vortex. One goes directly in and the colors become a part of the vortex itself and begin spiralling within in. It is one of the most amazing things I've seen. I then have a camera and try to take a photo of it, but catch it only as the intense colors begin to fade.  I realize witnessing the event through a camera was taking away from my experience, so I put the camera away and continued to watch.

The bears are back :)

 

In last night's dream I was in my room with my mom (I believe). We notice a huge bear outside the window and then see her little cub. We watched them and were a little worried about how close they were to the house. They seemed to notice us. I went looking for my camera to take their photo. Suddenly, the cub jumped through my bedroom window. I noticed there was no screen or glass covering the window, it was completely open to the outside world. I knew we were in trouble then and was just waiting for momma bear to get pissed at us and come after us. I tried to get the cub to go away, but it wanted to come in and play. It was hanging and playing on the inside of the window frame. Momma bear came over to the window, but she didn't come after us. She came up to the window and started grabbing for her baby, but couldn't catch him/her. She never did come in. Finally they both ended up back outside the window and were wandering around. They now had a bunch of baby birds with them, as if they were caring for them. My mom or someone said they were egrets (wtf is an egret? dreams are so weird!). Now there were a bunch of people gathered outside, having picnics, just hanging out in nature. I was worried that someone would get attacked by the mother bear, but that did not happen, even though some stupid humans were approaching the cub. The bears seemed to ignore everyone and the dream ended there.

Psychic

Very rarely do I have dreams when someone tells me something very specific. This was the case just a few nights ago. I found myself face to face with some guy that I never met. He begins telling me things about myself as if he was giving me a psychic reading. The only part that stood out and was clear to me was that I was going to be making a lot of mistakes. Considering the fact that I have a lot of important and life-changing decisions ahead of me, this did not make me feel good. He disappeared and I just started feeling like shit, as if I have many difficulties ahead. Suddenly I'm back in that same place and he's there again. He told me not to feel bad and that these mistakes were going to be necessary to get to me where I truly need and want to be. They were not necessarily a bad thing, but a way to get me where I need/want to go.
