Okay, in one of my dreams last night (I had several, because I kept waking up) I dreamt of this same part over and over again until at last it changed. It was similar to that of stopping it and then starting it over. It was so weird; I woke up wondering if my mind was scratched, like a cd (although that just made me laugh). Does anyone have any reasons why it would do this? I didn't wake up between it - more like my mind was creating the scene but didn't like it...but then couldn't stop making that one scene until at last it found something more suitable to replace it (which was actually the worst thing ever, but oh well). If you need me to write the dream out, or at least that part, I will.
Could it be a situation in waking life that is frustrating you, or maybe a problem that you keep facing but haven't been able to solve? Or maybe it is a message from your subconscious that you need to change your ways in regard to something (rather than continue doing the same thing over and over again.) The content of the dream could help to explain things better.
I think I'm just going to detail the dream, so that you may see for yourself, before I respond to your message ---- I was with these people (like, peasants and soldiers - we were all dressed like medieval folk or LOTR) and we were running into this valley to fight off these demonic creatures (I actually think they were orcs now but...). They looked like regular people, but their skin looked like ash and their hair was nasty and they had strange, dark silver eyes. Well, anyway, we found a small valley, but it had several openings to get into it - half of it was mountains and the other a forest. So we ran up this hill by this shack and a lone, twisted, young tree. Well, we heard them coming through the forest and they attacked us, but they were going so fast that all we did was stand there and held up our spears - they ran right into them and died. But, the strange part is that I had this part of the dream several times - like, it'd just start over and over until at last it changed, and instead of them just dying, they had mechanical animals to ride on and were able to spurr away from our weapons. So, everyone was getting slaughtered. I, along with this other girl who I don’t even know, decided to go find these rats who could help us, oddly named the Oreo Brothers, or something like that. So, we went through this little opening and somehow ended up in my kitchen. I was underneath the table looking for them when I saw someone. I apparently forgot about the girl because I was scared and crept out only to see her. We walked into the small hallway that is beside my kitchen, and one of the creatures walked up to us from our other hallway/dinning room place - it was a girl too - and we tried to negotiate with her, stating that we were just trying to find rats and had nothing to do with the war, but she was like, “no,” and then laughed and said, "I don't think so." She pulled out a knife and tried to kill me - the other girl had disappeared. I grabbed it and instead pushed it towards the creature, cutting her from one side to the other diagonally - from her hip to just below her ribs. All she said during this was, “Go on, do it!” And so I sliced her in half…but not completely because she got up and was about to tackle me or something when I shoved the knife through her head and sliced that in half downwards - from the top of her head to her chin - and she, I guess, died because I woke up. ---- I've had many dreams lately where I've been killing someone (just random people - no one I know) with a knife, always slicing them unless I stab their heart first and then slice them. Is this normal? I mean, the first time I had one of those dreams - I was really hesitant about stabbing them, but since they were attacking me, I had to. Now in my dreams I only stop for a sec before just doing it - but they're always attacking me. I don't just randomly kill them. So...hmm...I assume my mind is wanting me to destroy a negative aspect about myself and maybe its trying to tell me to just do it and not hesitate? I don't know. That could be wrong... Anyway, what was I talking about? Oh yeah..that's my dream. I'm not sure if you can interpret it but...um...yeah. Thanks!
