I know I must have more than just this but for the past week I've had this same dream multiple times and it's the only one I've been remembering. Sometimes I wake up screaming but don't know why, I can't remember my dreams then. By the way, this is violent and gross so I warn you of a possible trigger; aside from the main points, I have left out a lot of the gore it contains.
*Possible Trigger*
I'm chained up to a tree or pole opposite three family members: My mom, my dad and my little brother. There's a man there and he's torturing them in front of me. No matter how much I fight, I can't get free. There's a part where my mom opens here mouth to say something (all the while in tears) and instead of words, blood pours out of her mouth, my brother and dad follow suit (their tongues have been cut out). At the end of the dream the man snaps my brother's neck, slits my dad's throat and stabs my mom repeatedly in the gut. I wake up then feeling so terrified that it takes me a while to come down from it.
Why do I keep dreaming this? What does it mean?

There is probably a lot more to it than this but you are undoubtedly feeling like you are unable to help them IRL. You care about them but they have put themselves on paths of destruction. Depressing interpretation to a depressing dream but I do feel like accepting realities in our lives is part of recovery. Hope you don't have that dream again tonight.

Hi,
My take on dreams is quite different than most people. If you'd like to "check e out first" then go to Learning From My Dreams | Dream Interpretation ? Learning where you'll find a free website I created telling others what I've learnt.

If after reading this and you still want me to assist by providing an interpretation of your dream as if it was mine then please do the following:

What I've learnt from my own dreams is that there is nothing in a dream by chance. Therefore, if you answer the following questions, to the best of your recall ability, I will happily give you an interpretation of your dream as if it was mine.

First tell me the number of scenes in your dream. THEN FOR EACH SCENE I want you to tell me the following:

Location:
I want you to look in your mind, as the observer, in the following directions and tell me what you see:
1. To your left.
2. To your right.
3. In front of you.
4. Behind you.
5. Above you.
6. Below you.

It’s all right if you can’t recall much. Simply tell me what you see and make sure I know what direction it is from you the dreamer. In my interpretation, you’ll see how this is a symbol itself.

When you are describing what you see, tell me in as much detail as you can recall about it. So things I am very interested in is what are walls, doors, windows, stairs, tables, etc. made of, age/style, colour, etc. The same goes for anything outside. You’ll see in my interpretations how all of this tells us lots about ourselves.

Lighting:
1. Tell me what the lighting was like, i.e. bright, dull, black, cloudy etc.
2. Then tell me where the light was coming from.
3. Can you tell the time of day or season?
Lighting is important in a dream because it’s a symbol of vibrational state. I’ll explain this during my interpretation for you.

Objects:
If there are any objects in a dream scene, then tell me about them as follows:
1. Shape, size, colour and what they were made of.
2. Where the object is in the dream relative to you, i.e. left, right, etc.

I’ve found objects in dreams are usually symbols of things we first need to concentrate on spiritually. I’ll explain this in the interpretation if you had any objects in any of the scenes.

People:
For each person in a dream scene I want you to do the following:
1. Describe them to me in as much detail as you can recall. This includes age, gender, clothes, colour of the clothes, what the clothes were made of.
2. Tell me where they were in the dream scene relative to you, i.e. left, right, below, etc.
3. Tell me if they were lying down, sitting, standing, walking, etc.
4. Tell me what they did with you. Don’t skip the details. Simply tell me exactly what happened.
5. If there are any conversations or thoughts between you and the person or others, then tell me EXACTLY WHAT WAS SAID. This is important.
6. If there were others you couldn’t see but felt, then let me know where you felt they were in a scene relative to you the dreamer, i.e. left, right, etc.
7. For people who you know in real life, tell me anything that's different about them in the dream versus the real life version.

Animals. Etc.:
If there were any animals, insects, birds, reptiles, fish or whatever in any of the scenes, then tell me. Describe them in as great as detail as you can recall. Also let me know where they were in the dream scene relative to you, i.e. left, right, etc. Then let me know of any thoughts that passed between you and them.

Thoughts/Feelings:
This is a very important part of every dream scene. Take your time, go back and tell me the following for each scene:
1. What was your first thought/feeling as the dream scene began.
2. Tell me of any thoughts/feeling changes as the dream scene progressed and let me know where in the scene this occurred.
3. Tell me your last thought/feeling as the dream ended.

I realize this is a lot of work. HOWEVER, I think you might be surprised by how much you can learn about yourself from a single scene.

With kind regards,
Guy

PS I've learnt that the strong gorey type dreams we have can sometimes be our best teachers...so hang in there.

[MtnTime2896]

Well, my dream shifted. It wasn't this nightmare tonight, it was a different one that bothered me in a different way and maybe even more.
I don't know why my mind is acting like an attack dog, right now. (I'll talk about this one some other time. It really disturbed me).

Myst, that's a pretty accurate feeling towards my family right now. I can't stop worrying about them since I've put a lot of distance there and drifted away. I guess, I'm finally seeing my family's self-destructive, explosive, crash course down their seemingly suicidal roads. I'm finally feeling how much they really scare me.

[MtnTime2896]

*This Can Trigger*

(Scn. 1): To the left it's just pitch black. To the right, is the man standing there with a hooked blade like you'd see on a scythe but a shorter handle. Slightly to the right but in front of me are my family members while slightly to the left but in front of me is just darkness. I can't see behind me, above me are pine trees, below me is dirt. These are the woods I grew up in at my dad's house (I recognize a part of the path). All light is directly on my family (like that of a work light for construction), I'm in partial darkness as is the man (like a night scene in a horror movie). It's night time and it's fall.
[My mom is wearing her night gown she always wears, I think. My dad's in his green work shirt, black jeans and his favorite hat. My little brother is wearing his jacket unzipped with a white shirt underneath and in gym shorts and his sneakers. The man is almost impossible to make out, he's like a dark outline.]
(Scn. 2): The man's still like a shadow, but now he's in the spotlight with my family and he begins to cut into them with the scythe (carving them and digging in). He forces their mouths open and cuts out their tongues. He doesn't carve up my little brother too bad but he keeps punching him. He's mostly going after my mom.
(Scn. 3): He focuses more on my brother but it's like my vision zooms in on my mom and she opens her mouth, blood flows out so heavily. She doesn't look the same at this point and looks beaten/bruised and has aged like ten years.
(Scn. 4): The man is behind them now (he still has the scythe in his hand and is standing formally with hands in front of him, as if it's a funeral). My dad and brother open their mouths and it's the same as my mom. They both look like they've aged ten years.
(Scn. 5): He kills them how I described in my original post.

Throughout, the lighting doesn't change or the scenery. All of that other stuff (from what I recall) stays the same.

[MtnTime2896]

I guess I avoided talk about my emotion in that last post.

The whole time, I was terrified and trying so hard to get free and save them. I was crying and screaming (and woke up that way once) at him to stop. He just kept going like he didn't hear me or didn't care. My family looked at me the whole time like they were pleading for me to do something, except for when my mom opened her mouth. Her eyes were more like "I love you, I'm sorry." It's so weird and it's so screwed up. At this point. I absolutely can't sleep more than two hours at a time (if that). I can't keep up at this rate.

Hello,
Thanks for making the effort to get back to me with more details. Let’s see if I can help you deal with what appears to be on the surface is an awful, horrifying, recurring dream.

Below is my interpretation of your dream as if it was mine. Dreams are for each of us to interpret on our own. Therefore, if anything I say below doesn’t resonate with you, then simply discard it. So with that said, off I go.

When I do my own interpretations or that of others, I always start with the location. I could have located it anywhere, at any time in any reality and…I’ve located it with me chained to a tree I’ve learnt that locations help to “spiritually frame in” a dream.

I will take the first of several sidebars here to help you understand the framework I use when interpreting a dream. This one will cover what I’ve learned about beliefs, belief compartments, people and the age of people. Then I’ll return to myself and the tree.

In my dreams, things that are made by people are symbols of masculine and things of nature are symbols of feminine. I’ve learnt that before we incarnate, we carefully select the times we will live in, our families, life circumstances, challenges and potential exit points. We then carefully select our personality.

I’ve learnt we do this by selecting approximately 200 different “belief filters”. These are energy filters that have two polarities, a feminine one and a masculine one. We select the degree of polarity we are going to hold the belief, i.e. the degree of feminine or masculine. This then determines the belief vibratory level.

Each belief then works with the other beliefs, each with their own vibratory rate. They literally “filter our reality” by blocking out the greater reality vibrations we actually come from. They create the aura around us and create our thoughts/feelings for each moment.

We constantly tell ourselves about this in our dreams. We use symbolism to show ourselves about the beliefs and their limiting effects on us spiritually. We also show ourselves the “dis-ease’ created by some of our beliefs using colours in our dreams.

In my dreams buildings are symbols of what I call ‘belief compartments’. I’ve learnt that each wall is a symbol of a belief. Furniture within them are symbols of yet more beliefs that work with the overall beliefs to produce what I call are ‘belief effects’.

To symbolize to ourselves the many different types of beliefs we use in all our many lives, we often create our dreams in towns, cities or houses.

I’ve often found that in many of my dreams, people appear in the rooms or buildings. When I first began to record my dreams, many years ago, I frequently found myself in large warehouses full of boxes I had to climb over or in rooms in houses full of furniture. Imagine my surprise when I eventually learnt they boxes and furniture were symbols of masculine based beliefs I had to address first before I got to the walls!

As I spiritually listened to myself, over time, the rooms began to empty. Then I was walking through empty rooms. The next step was to see glass walls, windows and open doors, all symbols of how I was beginning to work my way out of the old belief walls. Then the walls began to disappear. In the end, I was usually flying over the old beliefs.

In many of my dreams when I began to keep a record of my dreams,, I would find myself in multi-storied houses. I then realized these are symbols of numerous belief compartments I use in one or more of my lives.

Then I found myself in towns and cities. I then realized that each one is a symbol of various belief compartments I have used in another life.

I will take another sidebar here and describe what I’ve learnt about people in my dreams…

When I first began recording my dreams, I would often find people in my dreams that I didn’t know or ones that I did know but they were doing strange things. When I tried to literally interpret my dreams, it usually didn’t work.

I had a near death experience 12 years ago that changed me. One of the changes was a determination to learn to meditate. I had stopped and started meditation all my life and had in effect gone nowhere in a hurry. So this time I was determined to stick with it.

I slowly learnt how to touch my “higher self”. One day, the thought came to me to use my higher self to assist me in interpreting my dreams. Then the dream gates swung wide open.

I’ve since learnt that people in my dreams may be who they are, symbols of my masculine and feminine, other lives, teachers, guides, oversoul, aspects of myself, people who I frequently incarnate with, etc.

When I first began to record my dreams I frequently began to see an old couple. They might change their appearance but there was almost always an old man and woman in the dream. Then a young girl and by appeared.

They too sometimes changed but they were now in the same dream as the old couple. However, they were “bit players” in my dreams as the old couple was the ones I was interacting with.

At first, I had no idea who these people were. Then, as I learnt to mediate and apply my higher self to my dream interpretations, my dreams gates swung open.

First, I learnt that the old man and women were symbols of my masculine and feminine. Next, I learnt that the young girl and boy were symbols of the feminine and masculine I could become. So I then used the terms “old masculine and feminine” and “young masculine and feminine” to describe these dream symbols to myself.

As I began to address my underlying beliefs, the old couple disappeared from my dreams and the young ones spiritually grew up.

I’ve learnt that people’s age in dreams is important.

When infants are in my dreams as other lives, this is usually a symbol we are just beginning our journey through the beliefs the dream is about.

When teenagers show up I realize I am making steady progress through my dreams.

When mature adults show up, it’s a sign that I am now spiritually maturing in dealing with the beliefs.

When old people show up in my dreams, I let out a sound of joy! It’s a sign that I am now ready to release the old beliefs.

I then learnt that things made out of natural materials are symbols of feminine beliefs that are now no longer working for me. In effect, spiritually speaking, they are now “dead” for me, i.e. dead trees – wood, etc. So, whenever I am in rooms made of wood or standing on wood, etc. I refer to this in my mind as “dead feminine”.

About a year and a half ago, I felt compelled to put together a free website documenting what I have learnt. At first, I didn’t want to because I felt what I had learnt was akin in my mind to a teaspoon of water compared to all the oceans’ water, i.e. not much. However the feeling persisted.

Today if you go to ‘learningfrommydreams’ dot com you’ll see what I created. If you go there, I suggest you look at 3 things. One is the meditation page where I list all sorts of different ways to meditate. Find one that works for you.

Then I recommend you read the dream discussion paper I posted on the website. It describes the symbolism I’ve learnt including people.

Finally, I recommend you look at the resources page where you’ll find an extensive list of things to look at.

So with this said, back to my dream…
The first thing I note is that I am outside. When I am outside in a dream, it’s usually what I call a “teaching dream” as opposed to when I am inside something it’s what I call a “learning dream”. So what’s the difference?

When I am inside belief compartments, the belief walls effectively isolate me from my higher self. I am therefore usually learning on my own. As I progress, windows appear and then slowly walls disappear…all part of a learning process.

When I am outside, there are no belief walls constricting me. My higher self and others can then instruct me. That’s why I call it a “teaching dream”. So, in this first scene I am in a “teaching dream”.

Next I note the lighting. Here’s what I’ve learned about lighting in my dreams.

Lighting in my dreams is very important. It is a way of symbolizing how much en-lightenment I have with respect to the beliefs the dream is about.

Dark in my dreams is a symbol of where I haven’t yet spiritually explored my beliefs. Sunlight is a symbol that my over soul is assisting me.

When I am in rooms with no windows or doors, it’s a symbol that I am “en-lightening” myself on my own.

If there are windows and the sun is shining through, it’s a symbol that some of my belief walls are beginning to be removed and my over soul is now beginning to assist me.

Morning is a symbol I am beginning to make progress on my beliefs. Noon is a symbol I am now able to shed full spiritual enlightenment on beliefs the scene is a symbol of. Evening is a time when I am in a place of spiritual darkness with respect to the beliefs.

If it’s winter, it’s a sign that I need to reflect on my beliefs since they are frozen. If it’s spring, it’s a time that I am beginning to make spiritual progress on the beliefs. If it’s summertime, it’s a symbol that my work is now bearing spiritual fruit. If it’s fall, it indicates I am heading towards a period where I can reap the benefits by releasing old beliefs.

Back to my dream…

It’s pitch black. I am therefore dealing with some beliefs the dream is about and I haven’t yet focused myself spiritually on them. So, I am in the spiritual darkness here BUT ONLY FOR THE BELIEFS THIS DREAM IS ABOUT, I.E. I AM NOT TOTALLY IN SPIRITUAL DARKNESS.

“It's night time and it's fall.” So I am at a point with these beliefs where if I don’t listen to this dream and myself I will soon enter a spiritual winter. HOWEVER, if I do listen to myself and this dream I can release the old beliefs, i.e. it’s harvest time, i.e. fall.

My over soul or my higher self or whatever you want to call it, can’t assist me yet, i.e. the sun shining down on me. even though I’m not within a belief compartment, i.e. walls. Why? I love my old masculine based beliefs so much I’m not ready to face myself and recognize I am much more than my physical body. The attrbutes I need to release to do this are some of my feminine ones, i.e. spiritual communication, love, collaboration, etc.

“All light is directly on my family (like that of a work light for construction), I'm in partial darkness as is the man (like a night scene in a horror movie).” This is very interesting. So my family is a bit more “en-lightened” than I am with respect to the beliefs this dream is about, i..e that’s why they’re in the light. I, however am in partial darkness, i.e. I am just beginning to shed spiritual light on the beliefs this dream is about.

Now I consider the actual location…
“I'm chained up to a tree or pole…” “Above me are pine trees, below me is dirt. These are the woods I grew up in at my dad's house.”

So, in my dream, I am chained to a symbol of my feminine, i.e. a tree or a pole. What’s holding me there is a symbol of a masculine based belief, i.e. the chains. This belief doesn’t allow me to move. I will take yet another brief side bar here and tell you what I’ve learnt about standing, sitting et al and then return to me chained to the tree…

When I am lying down in dream, it’s a symbol that I don’t have any spiritual ability yet to even see the effects of some of my beliefs.

When I am sitting, it’s a symbol that I need spiritual support to see the effects of some of my beliefs.

When I am standing, it’s a symbol that I now can stand on my own two spiritual feet to see the effects.

When I am walking, it’s a symbol that I am now steadily moving through the beliefs.

When I am running, it’s a symbol I am moving relatively quickly through the beliefs.

Note that I have found that spiritual time and our time are too different things. Usually my dream time is far faster than my physical time. So when I am running etc. I realize that it still will take “some time”.

Back to the dream…

So I am standing, i.e. I am now able to stand on my own two spiritual feet to see some of the effects of my beliefs. I’m not able to spiritually move, i.e. walk, i.e. spiritually make progress. The old masculine based beliefs are holding me back.

“Above me are pine trees, below me is dirt. These are the woods I grew up in at my dad's house.” So all around me are symbols of my feminine, i.e. pine trees.

So why am I locating the dream in woods near my dad’s house? I could have located it anywhere in any forest. It’s to show me that I have carried these beliefs since I was a child. When I create dream scenes in locations where I grew up, I realize I’m sending myself a message to go back in time and contemplate the beliefs this dream is about relative to the time when I was a child.

Okay, now it’s time to address the stars of my dream…the people.

Note From Me To You:
Before I begin, I want to note that I am the producer, director and main stage actor in every dream. It’s about me. The others in the dream scenes may be themselves, or symbols or whatever (which I will address below) BUT IT’S ME WHO’S WRITING THE SCRIPT AND IT’S ALL ABOUT ME. So, as you read along with me here, I want you to put yourself in the position of an observer to your dream, as if you’re up in the cheap seats of an old theatre looking down upon the stage which is your dream. Let’s see what the dream is trying to teach you…

“To the right, is the man standing there with a hooked blade like you'd see on a scythe but a shorter handle.”

To my masculine side, i.e. right, is the killer man. He’s another life of mine. I will take a few asides here to discuss several things and then return to the killer.

First, this dream is about what I have learnt from my own dreams are what I call masculine based command/control beliefs. I’ve learnt from my own dreams that these are a group of masculine based beliefs which are scared of my feminine. As a result, I build spiritual, mental and physical walls around myself to protect myself from my feminine.

In my dreams, this is usually depicted as people playing the part of a “Controller” and others playing the part of a “Contrlee”.

In this dream, my other life is the controller. My family and I are playing the parts of the controlee.

Note form me to you:
I want to note that I have lived thousands of lives or more. I have played both parts many, many, many times. In this life, it’s time for me to spiritually wake up, en-lighten myself and begin to release it. That’s what the good old chain holding me up to my single symbol of my feminine. i.e. the tree or the pole is.

Regarding lives I’ve lived. In my own spiritual journey, after a near death experience nearly 13 years ago. I realized through my meditations I had other lives. I called them my past lives.

As my journey progressed, I then was shown these lives live at the “same time” as I do. I have a degree in Science and was wondering how this could be possible. I then came across a trilogy by a nuclear physicist, Tom Campbell, who worked with an out of body explorer, Robert Monroe, and had many, many out of body experiences. He wanted to reconcile his experiences with his science, so he wrote a trilogy called “My Bog TOE” where TOE stands for “Theory of Everything”.

I then learnt that there is a new area in physics called “Digital Physics” that is coming to the conclusion we live in a digital reality. On my website, learningfrommydreams dot com, is a resource page, with a science section, you can visit if you’d like. There you’ll find lots of links to youtubes and Tom’s books.

As well, I also read lots of books entities had written through people. At the end of this interpretation is a recommendation to read a fictional trilogy written by Jane Roberts. I strongly suggest you find these and read them. They’re an easy way to gain a new framework for viewing your oversoul and your other lives.

In summary, if we live in a virtual reality, this then makes it possible to see how all our other lives can exist at the “same time” we live our live. On learningfrommydreams dot com there is a story I created about the multiverse we live in. I also strongly suggest you read this.

This is part of the healing process in removing the old masculine based beliefs currently holding you back.

Back to my dream…

So is it my family who’s in the dream scene with me or, are they symbols? It’s them. So why are they in the same scene as me? It’s because all of us share the same underlying command/control beliefs that I do.

When people show up in my dream scenes, not only do I realize they share the same underlying beliefs BUT THEY ARE ALSO SPIRITUALLY WORKING WITH ME ON THEM.

So now I take heart from all of this. I now know I have at least one other life and m family who are spiritually working with me on the same underlying beliefs, i.e. I AM NOT SPIRITUALLY WORKING ALONE.

To my masculine side is my other life. He’s also spiritually standing as is my family, i.e. all of us are now able to see the effects of our beliefs BUT WE’RE NOT ALBE YET TO SPIRITUALLY WORK OUR WAY THROUGH THEM, i.e. walk.

He’s holding “a hooked blade like you'd see on a scythe but a shorter handle.” This is sending me a couple of different messages.

First is it’s yet another symbol of another masculine based beliefs that involves control, i.e. killing things. It is used to harvest, i.e. kill nature, i.e. a symbol of my feminine. It can also be used to kill people, in this case to spiritually kill my feminine.

Second, the other life in this dream scene uses this in his lifetime. So “I” used it and it’s a message for me to begin to understand the time and life of my other life.

On yet another side note: When I see my other lives doing terrible things, I have been taught to accept and not to judge. This is much easier than it sounds. In my dream discussion paper on my website I talk about this. Back to my dream…

So in this other life I killed people somewhat cruelly. This is something I will have to come to terms with.

He and I are in somewhat of the spiritual darkness while my family is a bit more en-lightened that us with respect to the underlying command/control beliefs.

Now I come to the clothes being worn in the dream scene…

I’ve learnt that clothes and colours are important in my scenes. They a way of sending myself messages about my beliefs and where they are affecting my on my etheric and physical body.

I have learnt that colours in my dreams are very important. They are symbols of how the beliefs affect different points on my etheric and physical body. The old Hindi’s of thousand of years ago saw three energies swirling into our bodies at several points they called “chakras”. Then they mapped 70,000 different smaller points they called “Nadis”. This then grew to 100,000 points. It was and is an amazing piece of work.

Since I can only see the first 6 inches or so of an aura around a person and I’m not yet able to see chakras, I use this reference for colours and general body location points “The Chakras” by David Leadbeater. You can find free copies of it online.

I find that this is the best reference I can find to date about colours but the colours in my dreams usually go beyond what I find in David’s reference.

I will take a short side bar here and describe clothes and shoes.

In my old dreams, I frequently was in places nude and would panic that others would see me (I’m sure readers of this interpretation will have had similar dreams). I was always wanting to get dressed or hide away.

Imagine my surprise when I learnt that clothes are symbols of beliefs we “spiritually wear”. I then have learnt that being nude in a dream is a sign of spiritual progress regarding the beliefs the dream is about.

We are beings where we are both feminine and masculine. We live many, many lives as either sex, sometimes hermaphrodite, gay, whatever. Yet in the world we live in today, being nude is considered somewhat of a “sin”.

So, today, I always rejoice when I am partially nude or wholly nude in a dream. This also applies to footwear.

I’ve learnt as I make spiritual progress regarding a set of beliefs, frequently I am barefoot. Shoes are a way of symbolizing beliefs we use to separate ourselves from our feminine, i.e. ground we walk upon.

So with all this said, back to my dream…

“My mom is wearing her night gown she always wears, I think. My dad's in his green work shirt, black jeans and his favorite hat. My little brother is wearing his jacket unzipped with a white shirt underneath and in gym shorts and his sneakers. The man is almost impossible to make out, he's like a dark outline.”

As the dream producer, I could have clothed then in any clothes I wanted. Yet, I have selected these dream clothes. What they’re wearing also applies to me!

My mom is in her night gown. This is something she wears to bed to have out of body experiences and also to have sex in. So she is showing me we both wear a masculine based belief, i.e. the night gown, that insulates us from our greater self with respect to having out of body experiences and also affecting our surface level beliefs about ourselves sexually.

“My dad's in his green work shirt, black jeans and his favorite hat.” I make a note to myself to see what part of my body the green color is affecting in Leadbeater’s book. I’m showing myself that he and I are wearing low vibration masculine based beliefs covering our genital and our spiritual feet. We also have a masculine based belief affecting our crown chakra, i.e. the hat on our spiritual head.

“My little brother is wearing his jacket unzipped with a white shirt underneath and in gym shorts and his sneakers.” So, my brother is also showing me that he and I share yet another masculine based belief that we are slowly getting ready to release, i.e. the jacket. This is a belief that has been insulating our heart chakra from ourselves. We also have yet another masculine based belief to deal with before we can then open up pour heart chakra, i.e. the white t-shirt.

He’s showing me that we also share another masculine based belief that covers our genitals. Good news- this belief is shrinking, i.e. shorts. He and I also are wearing masculine based beliefs that protect and isolate ourselves from our feminine, i.e. sneakers.

So from all of this, before I get to the gory action, I am now giving myself a glimpse of the heavy spiritual lifting ahead for me if I choose to listen to these recurring dreams.

So there I am, spiritually struggling to free myself from my old masculine based beliefs but without success. I am literally interpreting my dream…that’s why I’m in my own spiritual darkness.

On to the gore…Scene 2.

“The man's still like a shadow, but now he's in the spotlight with my family and he begins to cut into them with the scythe (carving them and digging in). He forces their mouths open and cuts out their tongues. He doesn't carve up my little brother too bad but he keeps punching him. He's mostly going after my mom.”

Note from me to you: Take the role of observer here and emotionally detach yourself from your dream. Let’s see what we can learn about the play you are producing, directing and starring in…

Now my other life is going to torture my family, i.e. the controlees. I first note that he mostly goes after my mom. Why?

My old masculine based beliefs are scared of my feminine. These beliefs result in surface level beliefs about physical and sexual command and control. So, now I can see why “I”, i.e. my other life, is going after my mother, who is a symbol of my feminine.

Secondly, he’s cutting out their tongues. This is a symbol of how we communicate. My other life, i.e. I, am trying to stop spiritual communication. So in the play, i.e. my dream, I am trying to stop them from spiritually speaking, i.e. a feminine attribute/ability.

“I”, i.e. my other life, does something a bit different with my young brother. Why? I believe that youth can be physically controlled using force and fear. So that’s why I am beating him more than cutting him. Recall why I am locating the dream in a place where I grew up?

On to the next scene…Scene 3.

“He focuses more on my brother but it's like my vision zooms in on my mom and she opens her mouth, blood flows out so heavily. She doesn't look the same at this point and looks beaten/bruised and has aged like ten years. “

While my other life, i.e. “I” focus on beating my younger brother, I then spiritually focus in on my mom. Why?

I need to spiritually see the effects of my command/control beliefs on my feminine. My spiritual life, i.e. blood, is flowing out of me feminine’s mouth, i.e. she isn’t able to spiritually communicate.

“She doesn't look the same at this point and looks beaten/bruised and has aged like ten years.” I am showing myself how these types of beliefs beat myself up. They’re also now old beliefs. Recall at the beginning of this interpretation where I talked about the age of people in my dreams is a symbol of where I am in my spiritual progress of releasing the beliefs? Well, I am now seeing that these beliefs are ripe to be released, i.e. she’s now much older. Recall it is also fall!

On to the next gorey scene…Scene 4:

The man is behind them now (he still has the scythe in his hand and is standing formally with hands in front of him, as if it's a funeral). My dad and brother open their mouths and it's the same as my mom. They both look like they've aged ten years.

My command/control beliefs are now behind my family. This is actually a good thing. They’re showing me they are now becoming ready to move beyond their old command/control beliefs. I however, still miss the point. I am fighting and screaming,, literally interpreting the dream. They are now in some light along with my other life.

It is a funeral scene…the death of an old masculine based belief.

All of my family has aged. It’s an excellent sign dream wise they are ready to release the old beliefs. I, however, think it’s the physical end of them.

In my dreams, I’ve learnt that thoughts create realities. So, I’m expecting them to be killed. As the dream producer and director, on to the final scene…

Scene 5: He Kills Them

“At the end of the dream the man snaps my brother's neck, slits my dad's throat and stabs my mom repeatedly in the gut.”

So why the different deaths? I will take yet another aside here to describe what I’ve learnt about my incarnations and then return to the killing scene…

On my website, learningfrommydreams dot com, under the resources section, there’s links to a psychologist named Micheal Newton (referenced below). He used hypnosis and discovered that we come from a place his patients called “Life Between Lives”.

He discovered that we come from soul clusters and we incarnate together. So, I know from my own dreams, meditations et al that I have incarnated hundreds of times with my wife and my father in law.

We have played many different roles, i.e. father. Sister, brother, wife, lover, enemies et al . I’ve also learnt that in these lives we did some horrible things to each other.

So back to my dream..

I am showing myself how “I” have killed these people in some of my other lives. Now, before you freak out on my here, they too have likely killed me in some gruesome ways.

So I strongly suggest you take my guides advice to me when I first shockingly came to the same realization that this dream is telling you…”Accept and not judge”.

My thoughts/feelings throughout the scenes:
“The whole time, I was terrified and trying so hard to get free and save them. I was crying and screaming (and woke up that way once) at him to stop. He just kept going like he didn't hear me or didn't care. My family looked at me the whole time like they were pleading for me to do something, except for when my mom opened her mouth. Her eyes were more like "I love you, I'm sorry." It's so weird and it's so screwed up.”

I am literally interpreting my dream. The person I need to “save” is myself from my own masculine based beliefs. Because I’m not listening to myself, spiritually speaking, I, i..e. my other life, just keeps on going, using the command/control beliefs. That’s why “he” wasn’t listening to me.

My family is playing their roles to the hilt. “They were pleading for me to do something, except for when my mom opened her mouth. Her eyes were more like "I love you, I'm sorry “.

They are sorry for me. They are standing. They have moved past the command/control beliefs, i.e. the killer is behind them.

I, on the other hand, are trapped by my own beliefs. I haven’t yet realized who I am spiritually speaking and I’m caught by my own command control beliefs. That’s why I’m in the dark, chained to the tree consumed by my own beliefs, in a state of terror.

Now, in this lifetime, we love each other. They are players in my dream to assist me in learning about myself.

If this was my dream, I would be actually be excited. Why?

I am showing myself that I:
• Am much more than my physical body
• Have other lives
• Have incarnated with my current family likely many times
• Am ready to begin the process of releasing my old command/control beliefs
• Am ready to open myself up spiritually by learning to listen to myself

I would not be focused on the gore and the killing. These are simply “play parts” used to grab my spiritual attention.

People often ask me what to do to learn to listen to themselves? Here is my reply…

• Learn to listen to my intuition – it’s my spiritual radar
• Keep a dream journal – each night I get a course on myself
• Learn to meditate – this is a way to connect with the greater me

There are many ways one can get in touch with one self…

Meditation is one way. The old hindi's of 2,500-3,000 years ago wanted to have out of body experiences. They did this by occupying the conscious mind allowing their inner soul to rise. Today, this is called yoga and the OBE portion is mostly an afterthought.

When they were out of their bodies, they saw energy swirling into the body from the sun, from the earth and from the side. They called these main points "chakras". Then they saw that the energy went into small points they called "nadis".

They then did something that amazes me to this day. They mapped 70,000 different nadi points and then it went up to 100,000.

This knowledge crossed over the Himalayas and went down into China. It became adopted as energy meridian lines. Today accupuncture uses this.

Yoga is simply one of many ways. On Meditation ? Learning From My Dreams | Dream Interpretation I list several different ways to meditate. You can go there and see if any one of these resonates with you. If so, then give it a try.

Another way is to use the hemisync technology that Robert Monroe pioneered to help people get to the theta state and have out of body experiences. You can go to the Monroe Institute to learn more https://www.monroeinstitute.org/. Books Bob wrote can be found here https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=la_B00N...qid=1477584351

Another way is to go to a hypnotist trained by the Newton Institute. This was created by a psychologist Michael Newton. About 30 or so years ago, he had a woman under hypnosis who went to a place she called her "live between lives". He then found out that many of his other patients went to a very similar place. He then write three books and began to train psychologists how to do this. The Newton Institute can be found here The Newton Institute for Life Between Lives Hypnotherapy. On this website is a link to find a local therapist.

To learn about other lives, I suggest reading a fictional trilogy “Over Soul Seven” by Jane Roberts. She was a great channeler who brought through an entity names Seth in the 1970’s. He wrote many books through her. She also wrote some of her own books.

The books I am referring to are a trilogy she wrote to explain, in a simple story form, complex ideas about us incarnating many times, at the same time. It’s an easy read and good way to get one’s mind around the concept of an over soul and many other lives.

The choice is yours to make. I hope that some of what I’ve said above deeply resonates within you. I also hope that you can now make your way past the recurring nightmares and on to more dreams showing you who you really are.

I used to wake up nearly every night with my heart beating as people tried to kill me. This went on for years. When I finally learned to listen to myself, they went away.

This didn’t mean that I didn’t have dreams about death. However, I was now more in the role of an observer watching my other lives. I would then wake up, record my dream, use my meditation skills to “reach for my higher self” and then interpret them.

I wish you well on your spiritual journey.

With kind regards,
Guy

By the way, this is violent and gross so I warn you of a possible trigger; aside from the main points, I have left out a lot of the gore it contains.
*Possible Trigger*
I'm chained up to a tree or pole opposite three family members: My mom, my dad and my little brother. There's a man there and he's torturing them in front of me. No matter how much I fight, I can't get free. There's a part where my mom opens here mouth to say something (all the while in tears) and instead of words, blood pours out of her mouth, my brother and dad follow suit (their tongues have been cut out). At the end of the dream the man snaps my brother's neck, slits my dad's throat and stabs my mom repeatedly in the gut. I wake up then feeling so terrified that it takes me a while to come down from it.
Why do I keep dreaming this? What does it mean?

This is a good interpretation. You feel hand tied to the pole and are unable to save them. The blood may mean angry words, possibly an indication of bickering and accusations flying back and forth between family members.

That is my family. I don't think they've ever gone a day without doing these things; at least not for well over a decade. My upbringing wasn't really nurturing. I don't know, I guess this makes sense.

Yugh, that's all pretty interesting; I'll have to think on it.
