About the name of Jesus. A few people don't realize that the letter "J" is a recent invention. It's only five hundred years old, or so. It's a variation of the letter "I".
In the old Latin language, the name of Jesus is Iesu. This is awkward for English speaking people, because of the diphthong or gliding vowel ("ie" sounds like "yes" minus the "s") and because of the fact that in Latin and the languages that descend from it the "i" has always the same sound, but in English the written "i" has many variations of sound.
The letter "e" has that same sound as the Latin "i". I often mix up "this" and "these" because I can't distinguish well the short and long vowels. For Spanish speakers, a "bitch" and a "beach" sound the same. Shibboleths are fun!
That Latin "I" of Iesu is the same sound as the Greek iota letter and the Aramaic and Hebrew yod. Although they say that in semitic languages it sounds closer to the modern "J" or the "Y" in "Yeshua". Maybe in Greek and Latin that foreign sound was lost, and the closest equivalent was a pure vocalic sound.
Or, perhaps, the modern Hebrew language imposes a Germanic sound on the Yod letter, and the ancient Yod of the Jews of 2000 years ago had the same vocalic "I" sound of all the other languages of the Mediterranean region. I don't know enough. I wouldn't be surprised if this was a disputed topic by obscure phonologists in the academia.
Super-duper esoteric Stack. Thanks! Some say dream interpretations reveal more about interpreters than dreamers, but I’m guessing Colorado. The juxtapositions seem most dreamlike to me, and I was invited to Denver literally this morning. Or maybe I dreamed I was.
I'm sorry you met a horror film too early and ever. A grinning idiot once told me about feeding his unsuspecting nephew a jalapeño. I think idiot deserved a karate chop. People with no grasp of child development ruin their own authority, bruise little psyches, and worse. Ignorance is as destructive as malice.
I think denying demons exist is a doomed and dangerous way to cope with reality. I believe faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, recalling scripture, and invoking His name keep demonic activity at bay. More of us should try trusting Him when He says, “Call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me” (Psalm 50:15). At any rate, I’d rather have Christ and scripture in my head than be distracted by demons. Or I could be wrong and that’s just how I cope. Even so, it’s a fascinating topic, and maybe one of the most important.
The apocalyptic dream: methinks you are gifted with empathy and the Lahaina tragedy is unresolved.
A few weeks ago, I was having dreams about being sort of lost/trapped in an Adams family style house, a bit goofy, but still 'couldn't find the door'. A night later, it was a music gig dream where nothing was going right and again lots of rooms involved. The kind of dreams that leave you a bit exhausted upon waking up, you know. ...But i was sleeping for a few days in a new room I usually dont. (I returned to the previous room and not had such clazy dreams since)....and I think the room is a bit....energetic...from a litany of previous housemates. Glad the 'lost' dreams stopped at least they tired me out. Strangely the room I am back in is closer to the gddam 5g meter than the other room, so that must be human energies perhaps.
This is really good Amy. Going to send this to Kimberly Steele. Maybe she will have some answers for you. I do not engage people I do not know in my dreams (deep sleep). Have had it happen, even when being intimate with a girl, where the person turns into the dark figure I am all too familiar with and it puts me into a state of sleep paralysis.
I somewhat recently started to dream regularly. I don't really remember them, but I don't really want to remember them. They are always weird.
One very weird is that maybe 50-75% of the time, 95-100% of a dream has nothing to do with me. I vaguely remember a very weird dream that wasn't entirely physically possible, but the weirdest part was that it was NOT a place a knew, or people I knew, or a situation I knew, either personally or from a book, etc. Sometimes I have dreams that are obviously about me, but then sometimes there is almost nothing in a dream that I can relate to myself or experience, and I find that very strange and don't know what to make of it.
OK - I'm going with #3 as the dream. For several reasons.
I've walked at the base of an active volcano . . . although you can take precautions, it is not safe. I have a hard time believing your horse would not object to the temperature of the ground while you noticed your shoes literally melting while riding. Any time I have been riding, my horse always noticed a danger before I did. So I'm going with #3.
I look at my natal chart. I see that my Neptune is retrograde. Maybe I should have more dreams! Someone is stealing my cheese!
But Neptune is in opposition to the Moon. Not fun.
Neptune in the 6th house and the Moon in the 12th house. So weird!
Mercury trine Neptune. I quote an astrology site, re Mercury trine Neptune: "Vivid dreaming and daydreaming come with this aspect. You may have psychic abilities or at least a solid and accurate intuition. Your senses are finely tuned to pick up the vibration energy from other people and your environment."
All of that is false in my case. Or mebbeee Neptune deludes me into thinking I don't have intuition. I don't know, LOL!
I don't like Mercury in my 11th house. The 11th house sucks! It's a roach motel for the soul! Mercury should be living in a RV, not in the 11th house.
I hate my natal chart. Most of it. It's just wrong. I need another birthday, with better planets.
Great post, Amy!

I used to dream about aliens as a kid (as I'm sure many did)
now I dream that I'M the alien, the stranger, the odd one out, walking among people I used to recognize...

I don't dream.
Ever.
About anything, good or bad.

I do not recall any dreams lately. Perhaps I am not sleeping long enough to allow dreams to come.
I rarely ever remember my dreams. Love, hugs, and PERSEVERE yall!!!
Also wanted to post this link here as well. It’s from Kimberly Steele who has helped me battle demons in my dreams.
