    Since mid-september, every dream i've had, or remembered, has ended with me dying. The dreams start out "normal", and then I die. I usually get pushed off something, or shot, and it's always the same person killing me, a boy who's always dressed in a black hoodie, and baggy jeans, i never see his face.

    I'm not really interested in this type of thing, and I don't know anything about dreams but I find it stranger and want to know if my subconcsious mind is trying to tell me something.

    So, what do you think my dreams are telling me?

    Perhaps the fact you never see his face indicates he's not a real person and representative of a part of yourself. Perhaps this part of yourself is always undermining your efforts ,.. at least since september anyway. Hows your waking life playing out?

    There could be a meaning that dying (the end of your dreams) is when you wake up? ie. The death of your dream leading to the birth of your waking day.

    sounds like your dream advisary is the key, whoever, whatever, he represents, to you personally; and its a lot more likely a what then a who. generally almost always is.

    could be the sense of helplessness we all have because of the scale and power of the tyrannies we all live under. that would be my first guess.

    so far no one's killed me in any of my dreams. closest i've come to that was getting pinned down by crossfire from conflicts that did not directly involve me.

    it's not a matter of what intrests us, but of the dominant force of the surrounding values and assumptions, that make up the subconscous culture, and culture, in the anthropological sense, which is the only sense in which i use that word, while manifested in things like arcitecture and artifacts, is primarily a thing that goes on in all of our heads, and usually not on a conscious level.

    so there are risks from an appearant unknown, most of which turn out to be familiar things, really, masquarading themselves, hiding from us, as it were, as something unknown.

    i know how they fit with what i'd tell everyone: don't expect what you are familiar with to protect you from tyrannical conditions, disguised as being of unfamilar origen.

    iv had this reocurring dream since i was about 5...i get it around once a month, sometimes less. Anyway in the dream its like a twilight zone. like im in a perfectly white room with no door, its more like a big white space of emptiness. there are these mounds and they keep moving but there covered over buy something...its really hard to explain. im not real in the dream though...as in not human, i just exist. Im trying to find my way out...for some reason i need to get away i keep looking for this key...something to get out anyway but everytime i look for it the mounds start fighting and these mirrors appear and if i look at them then something bad happens and i die...when i die i re-appear and the same thing happens all over again, iv had this dream since i was 5 and iv never been able to understand or even explain it very well...when i do get it though im not able to sleep for about 3 days afterwards

    My awake-life has definetly been better. None of the things i'm dealing with right now are directly involving me though, but i'm getting involved with them because of my family/friends.
    I also started at a new highschool in september, and it was hard to make friends, and I didn't really like the new-friends i made, but I switched back to my old school after that semester.

    I usually wake up after I die.
    Once or twice i didn't, I kind of just floated above my body and watched everyone around me.
    I don't completely understand what you're saying, but I got it as I'm subconsiously feeling threatend or at risk from something I consiously don't know but I actually subconsiously do know what it is?

    (if that makes any sense...)


    Thanks for both of your input, I really appreciate it. [​IMG]
