"Portals, Castles, and Layers: Dreaming of New Realities"

 The last couple of nights I have had more reoccurring dream symbols. The night before last, I dreamt me and a close friend were moving throughout a building. This isn't the first time I have had this dream, or the 5th. It happens frequently, and I know when it happens that something will come up and we need to visit and discuss where we are on our paths. What are we wanting to create in our lives for 2025? Last night I dreamt of moving through rooms, and layers of earth. This was a first. 

This morning, while making my infusions, my mind drifted and took note that the stove read 10:10. This is significant for me. It is my personal sign that something has changed, or is about to change. Not something small, this is a shift. That inner voice whispered, "Are you ready?" Inwardly I knew I could only BE ready for ANYTHING and that is my only option. I remembered my dream from last night. This time, moving through rooms led to moving through layers of reality, even within the material. 

In the dream I was walking through murder mystery rooms at work. Walking down the halls and I came to a door. I thought, is this leading to the new pirate rooms on the ship? I pushed opened the door and it was a shower room. I thought, this is nice! It even had slippers and towels. I was looking around and saw another opening, I pushed on the wall and an opening appeared. It was radically different, like decked out underground bunkers. I always felt a portal around, just unsure where it was. I climbed through and started checking everything out. I then, couldn't find my way back. 

I kept moving forward, room to room, each nicer than the next, until I came to stairs. In my dreams I remembered previously dreaming of these stairs. But, they didn't look like this. People were all around, not questioning at all who I was and why I was there. They were friendly and helpful. Few would get suspicious of me when I was asking how to get "out of this area." In my dream I knew I was revealing a bit of who I was, but I needed help. I came up from the massive downstairs into extravagant lobbies of some sort. They had waterfalls and tropicals. Perfection in design, streaming in sunlight, hanging plants and beautiful fountains with glowing orbs around them. I walked through this area for a day, observing, and feeling a bit out of place. Even in my dreams I have a tendency to look like a homeless person. And I was definitely out of place here. 

People were lounging around pool areas, having drinks served to them, enjoying life. This was a land of pure leisure. I lingered around the tropicals as the sun began to set. I worried I didn't have a place to sleep. It appears in my dream their were no "assigned homes" everyone was a guest. At nightfall, I saw smoke from cooking filling the air. People were laughing and having dinner. Orbs of light lit the paths and water fountains. "What was outside of here?" a person, again greeted by a strange expression. A young lady overheard me. She came over to me and said she had a map.I followed the young lady into a room and she pulled out a paper map. She exclaimed, "I found this! It shows what is beyond here." 

I looked down at the map and this area was within perimeters, similar to Diablo maps. Areas beyond this area were grayed out. But, there was a large castle sketched above the area I was currently in. I pointed to it and asked, "What is that? I have seen this before?" She answered it was a castle that in my mind I associated with previous dreams of being in this Ice Land with a giant castle. I asked how to get there and she had not a clue. She never tried, no one did. There was no reason for them to want to. They were all happy. Was I viewing the Matrix? 

My next question was, why didn't I want to stay here? It was a very nice place and I had a feeling of peace. I felt this in another dream after I emerged from garbage in Africa into a Golden Field. I now suspect that had something to do with Biden currently being in Africa. Was this another signpost? I did just get the message of 10:10. I have witnessed the reset in my life enough after this number presents itself to know, something is going to shift. Stirring and cleaning this late morning has my mind resting enough to think about things. Ask more questions of myself. 

What was this castle of a symbol of? A fairytale, some remnant in my DNA, or an actual place? Do I was create a new level to move to, unable to be satisfied with where I am currently at? Am I programmed to continue to seek? Were castles in the sky reflective of levels of homes in the material? The very homes, levels and floors I am constantly moving through in my dreams. Can I ever be secure in not questioning and thinking I know a truth? Am I programmed to always question even perceived truth? Is grounding myself from this area of thinking beneficial? Is this walking the fine line between the Spiritual and Material?

Not wanting to spiral into another existential crisis, I will continue to clean and then be creative. I am currently hand decorating baubles for my bespoke Christmas tree that matches my new holiday graphic collection. Which I still haven't fully uploaded. Chop wood, carry water, sit by water, freak out over thoughts, carve wood into intricate works of art, then chop again.
