Anyway this morning I had a dream about a God. I can't honestly say that it was a pleasant dream like the ones I often get about goddesses, sorceresses, fairies, and the like. I honestly thought I was doing a good job of relaxing and meditating. Yesterday I achieved a low level trance that put me in the first stage of zazen. I wasn't expecting to have dreams about anything but coffee, tv, food, and cats. It was Ares the God of War. Ares wanted to tell me that a brewing war is coming. I don't remember a lot of details, but I do remember that my favorite 2014 summer anime OP music was playing near the end of the dream when I come out of it. Its Heavenly Blue by Kalafina and the anime its being used on right now is called Aldnoah.Zero about an Earth invasion of mechas from the Martian colonies. Its a decent enough war anime even though mechas aren't really my thing. The music by Kalafina is great however.

Ares, Mars, War, war gods, divinity, trickery, anime music dream
Dream diary update. I don't like writing in this dream blog much anymore. Besides the fact that I have to encourage tiresome sleep disturbances in myself in order to recall more dream details to write about, in my case such dream disturbances are dangerous since I'm a sleepwalker whom has also blacked out for extended periods in the past. (Once when I was slumming around Champaign-Urbana as a University dropout, I lost a whole month for example. When finally I came to about a month later, I was carrying an empty suitcase outside my single apartment along with a canceled plane ticket to Los Angeles inside. No memories. As far as I know I've never physically been to California, but I'll never be sure about that again)

derp- It only just now occurred to me that Ares' war god counterpart in the Roman pantheon is named Mars. The same Mars the invading planet in Aldnoah.Zero is named after. I guess that's why I keep a dream diary to keep track of such important details

JoJo's bizarre vampire horses, ice climbing tiger, Prospero's fractals dreams
Dream diary update. I realized last week that I had abandoned this blog. Fortunately lately the cats have been waking me up after 4 AM to feed them. So I have to get up abruptly & march upstairs to "whip us up some grub, bub!" This makes it easier to remember my dreaming.
Last Wednesday I woke up after having somewhat disturbing dreams about Nazi guards and vampire horses. These themes are not random, as I was marathoning the final 6 episodes of an anime climaxing with Nazi soldiers, vampire gladiators, and vampire horses leading chariots. The anime is JoJo's Bizare Adventure (2012). I had somehow tied up the Nazi soldiers with being lost in a typical eerie dream maze and I mixed up the vampire horses with the nightmare island in the 2002 film The Ring.
On Sunday I woke up after having a dream about a giant tiger and the 6 lost climbers on Mount Rainier. I must have seen some references to them Saturday. In my dream I scaled and leaped up impossible ice cliff faces like those in the 2012 film Chasing Ice in order to help my climbing & skiing comrades, a bunch of Nordic blonde girls in cute wool scarves and caps. I also rescued a giant tiger on the cliff face with gleaming golden eyes. Of course in real life the 6 climbers were not rescued at all, as they were taking their chances in bad weather.
Just now, Monday morning, the cats woke me up after a dream including a new pop idol music group. In addition to dream music from a female vocalist & guitarist, I dreamed about something involving the complexity of nature. Though rapidly forgetting the details, I was a lone sorcerer much like Prospero in The Tempest. I had become obsessed with growing intricate lattices and patterns from plants and other living things. I eventually summoned and weaved a huge intricate menagerie under the principle that "mathematics is God, and Nature is the computation of creation"

Mad scientist, mystical technology, cat boy, death angel, send in the clowns dreams
Dream diary update. Perhaps its the wild weather lately? I've been having lots of unusual dreams & interrupted sleeping. Part of it is that one or both of the cats usually accompanies while asleep me in bed or in the living room.
Friday morning I had a dream about mastering a fiendish technology that could summon mystical power. I wasn't the only one who possessed the tech. It had become quite common in society but I took it to the next level. Many agents were out to get my prized lab experiment setup. After fighting for hours I fooled them by leaving it outside my apartment building hallway sort of hidden out in the open in a communal rooftop garden. I finally reached it after being tortured inside my apartment. I had managed to surprise my torturers, killing them all. I activated my garden lab equipment as the soldiers came running from the stairway. The outside became filled with darkness & thunder as my instrument circuits warmed a green glow. I was getting ready to annihilate them as I awoke.
Saturday morning I fell asleep with Swirly cat. I dreamed silly dreams about having cat ears and a tail & talking to girls. Sunday morning (today) I fell asleep rocking Swirly cat in the living room recliner. I woke up listening to Classic Arts Showcase on tv & with both cats showering me with affection for spoiling them. CAS was playing Glenn Close singing "Send in the Clowns" again. It had become incorporated into my dream. I dreamed I was an angel of death whose fondest wish was to become something else in place of my eternal vigil. At the end of the dream I got my wish granted from the boss. I was transforming into a clown & I thought at first that they had tricked me into losing my immortality to become a Fool. But then I started laughing and everything became all right again as I awoke.
The odd thing about this one is that as soon as I awoke, Swirly cat got up from my lap on her hind paws & kissed me on the lips. Then her brother Sticky cat came up behind us & started singing & making happy mewling sounds. I ended up passing out in the rocker again until sunrise.

physical injury, clairvoyance, air walking, controlled lightning, meditation dreams
Dream diary update. I had some nightmares 2 weeks ago when I had mild back muscle injuries from work & hand scratches from the cat. Lately my dreams have been extremely pleasant as my health improves. I notice that I am losing quite a bit of fat. As my body becomes leaner my serum testosterone goes up so the process is cyclical. It improves my overall mood substantially when I can stay aroused for hours. It also helps my insomnia.
On Saturday night I had dreams about walking on air. The dreams were quite vivid as I could feel the gusts of air & physical pressure of the cloudy air beneath my tread. Last night (Tuesday) I had dreams about controlling the bolts of lightning shooting out from my fingertips. I awoke this morning in a state of heightened awareness, similar to my remote viewing & prescience meditative trances. As usual in such situations, I felt myself compelled to perform certain specific actions & investigations, though they did not manifest until later in the day. I believe that I have probably been meditating in my sleep, even though I thought I had given up on such religious practices.

Venus superstorm, wild forest critters, lost cat dreams
Well one month has come and gone and its about time for another dream diary entry. I haven't been trying to do anything but keep track of myself & my cats when I wake up. Consequently, I haven't been noting very many details about my dreams upon awakening.
On Saturday mid-mornings & Wednesday nights I often watch a ton of nature videos. This Wednesday was no exception. So I had many peaceful dreams this past Wednesday night about living with talking critters & forest spirits. These nature dreams were remarkable in their color & clarity, far beyond what is currently offered in VR tech for example. I thought I was really there.
On Thursday night I dreamed about supertyphoon Haiyan & about the superstorm multivortex that rages perpetually at Venus' south pole. The two are linked in my mind & I am trying to understand why. That is why I am regarding those 2 dreams as Prognostications rather than as dream interpretations. Many real scientific & mathematical discoveries began with vivid drams by brilliant people. Ours is not to understand why.
Last cat when I came home from visiting the nephews & picnicking at Ferne Clyffe, there were people from the road & the library parking lot next door shining lights into our Backyard Jungle to spot the deer there. It was around 8 pm. Since the deer were there 2 days in a row, I became concerned about the bobcat that dad saw on Thursday coming around again. I don't want to lose another cat after 4 disappeared last year. So after waking up & passing out again after 2 am, I dreamed that Sticky cat was missing and that I couldn't find him. When I awoke again briefly around 7 am, he knocked on my bedroom door & I sat up to let him in. I was very relieved to see him hale and fit.

Climate Change, apocalypse, refugees, ghost hunt, dermatome, demon hunter, cat squirrel, family values dream
Dream Diary update. I skipped last month's entry. I had almost decided to abandon this blog. Not only did I not want to remember my dreams but I almost gave up on my prognostications on tumblr. I just had another doozy tho, so I am writing about it here.
Basically in this dream I was part of a group of young refugees sort of as their sempai. We were living in a community together in another post-apocalyptic society. I think perhaps the global ocean had raised 20 ft and climate change desertification with toxic chemical waste added had reached 76% of the land surface. Africa and the Amazon rain forests was obliterated. We took refuge in a lot of urban jungles. Shopping malls were turned into communal living spaces.
My job in society wasn't merely as mentor to new refugees. I was as a sort of ghost-killer. I took the dermatome and other instruments that our mentors gave me and I sliced any ghost that I found among the refugees to ribbons, until either they gave up or else their demon brains exploded. It was a grisly job and I had to keep it secret from our social orders.
Anyway what happened was I got very tired of a slasher horror show happening every time they told me to sneak away at night to battle monsters. I found a ghost among this group of young folks I was transporting. It was a young tall black fellow with almost no hair on his head. I got him to play games with us on the train. He seemed like a nice fellow at first. I asked my spectral superiors if I could just let this one go but they refused. The demon seemed to recognize that I was going to take him down. He created a barrier so that the others could not see us fighting on the train. I beat him and almost had his brain slashed open with my ghostly dermatome when I awoke.
In real life the cats had brought a squirrel in to my room to eat it. Sticky cat hid given up on his anorexia from yesterday and was happily munching on a leg. I didn't want to interrupt him, but I don't like them to make big messes in our room. So I picked up the dead squirrel and I set him on the back porch with Sticky cat and a bowl of water. Swirly cat soon followed her brother outside. I think she was the one who had brought the squirrel in to feed her hungry brother cat. nom nom nom

Leap Day William, Nelson Mandela, American oil & gas extractivism, heat wave, Tina Fey, sexy Tango dream
Dream Diary Update. I went to sleep with the door next to my bed open and tv on ABC. I set the fan in the doorway and my leg on top of the fan because I find that it discourages the coons from coming in past me to get the cat food. I doubt I need to elaborate why I have to keep my door ajar with a fan since there is a massive heat wave raging on multiple continents right now. To paraphrase the @nbcnightlynews meteorologist roaming outside in NYC Central Park West, "A lot of Americans I spoke with in the beginning didn't know what a Heat Dome was. Well, They all know it now!" When I woke up I could hear the coon snuffling & grunting around my door near my feet so I closed it.
I seem to remember waking up once or twice after listening to Jimmy Kimmel's monologue to watch snippets of 30 Rock reruns that ABC puts on late at night. Specifically I watched parts of an episode about Leap Day. Jim Carrey played a character called Leap Day William.
Right now they have on Classic Arts Showcase (CAS). This German symphony was playing the Tango.
That background explains some of my dream elements. See, I just dreamed that Nelson Mandela came out of South Africa to hide a scandal for his country, that he secretly longed for revenge against the American Oil & Gas Industry. One of Mandela's more radical followers had hatched a scheme that Tina Fey's character from 30 Rock had foiled & they sent Mandela personally to do some diplomatic damage control.
After Mandela came out and leered at us while spinning yarns to the black tie party, I tangoed with Tina Fey down the street all the way up to my nephews' apartment. Then I woke up listening to Tango music and snuffling coons at my feet. That might explain some of the more surreal elements of my dream, as well as the sexy office Tango bonus I received at the end there.
