I dream so seldom and this one was so vivid....I dreamed there was a ghost in the basement of this farm house (not in Hawaii). Everyone knew about it, the ghost was of a person that had been a murderer of some kind and he would run around this low ceiling basement all antsy, crazy like, talking to no one, mumbling into his hand I, for some reason, had to see and make contact with this ghost. So I asked this person in my dream, who is some one that I distantly work with on this level of thought, to guide me thru the basement. We held hands and she said we had to move fast and not to worry if her hand is shaking. We head to the basement and the entry is under a set of stairs. The door is made of white painted planks (lots of layers of paint), they are some how split at the bottom and I see a face looking at me. Some how I instantly think this is a face from the 1940's looking at me (guessing this is when the guy died). He is kinda looking like Jack Nicholson in the movie Shining, but not quite as crazy, more worried like. He also seems pretty solid...not really ghost like at all. We enter the basement and in a flash the guy is some feet away from us. I get the feeling he does know we are there and that we are there to learn/see him. He is wearing a checkered shirt and jeans, not sure if he was wearing shoes. We are running thru the basement - semi crouching - and he is talking to himself, all worried and holding his rolled fingers (not clinched to a fist) to his mouth. He would kinda flash into a different area of the basement. Always with in sight, but always a distance away. We exit the basement and she leaves. I feel that some time has past (hour or two) and I am still in the building/house. I know I talked to someone, a man - but don't remember what we talked about. Suddenly I am back at the door and he is looking out at me. I encourage him to come out. Talking to him like I talk to my clients here at work....He comes out and is naked...but I can't say that he had any body features....i.e. couldn't tell if he had muscles, or anything else....just all smooth, except his head. Maybe it is just unclear because it's a dream. I am standing there with this large package (taller than I am) and I split it open and a fluid breaks out over the floor in front of me. Looks like milk. I bend the carton and touch him with it, it feels like I am hitting something solid. He starts talking, rambling. I can't really say what he said, but the one thing he did say that I some what understood was "You're going to go down (pointing at the basement) on August ?? (insert date here). What do you think of that?" After that I woke up...I know this ghost was something to fear, but I didn't really fear him...I just feel very funny about it.
oh, forgot to say the date that he said...at first I thought I remembered wrong, but thinking about it, it is a key date for me...my sons birthday (turning 18.)
The ghost could represent someone who is not attached to the system of people which could be for example a shy person/loner outcast maybe your a person that is a good mediator find someone that no one else would dare gop for.
