Dream of lions, friends, parents, crying, home, children, day, friend, kitchen, dead, child, house, pet, young, female

Both of my parents are now dead. I dreamt today of coming home one day and my mum standing in the kitchen, with 2 young lions - one male, one female. She said that we would have them for a few days, to look after at home. Both were very docile and I never heard any roars from them. I grew very fond of the female one (which I thought of as a male rather than female). It followed me everywhere around the house, like a pet and let me stroke/ cuddle it. We went to join some friends - lions accompanying us - in a wildlife reserve. My little friend ran away and I couldn't find him anywhere - I'd become very attached to him - like he was my child though (I don't have any children in reality) and woke because I'd been crying in my dream.

Disastrous consequences could often be averted if minds could grasp the inner workings and sight of the higher or spiritual self. The voice of relatives is only that higher self taking form to approach more distinctly the mind that lives near the material plane. There is so little congeniality between common or material natures that persons should depend upon their own subjectivity for true contentment and pleasure. Paracelsus says on this subject: ``It may happen that the soul of persons who have died perhaps fifty years ago may appear to us in a dream, and if it speaks to us we should pay special attention to what it says, for such a vision is not an illusion or delusion, and it is possible that a man is as much able to use his reason during the sleep of his body as when the latter is awake; and if in such a case such a soul appears to him and he asks questions, he will then hear that which is true. Through these solicitous souls we may obtain a great deal of knowledge to good or to evil things if we ask them to reveal them to us. Many persons have had such prayers granted to them. Some people that were sick have been informed during their sleep what remedies they should use, and after using the remedies, they became cured, and such things have happened not only to Christians, but also to Jews, Persians, and heathens, to good and to bad persons.'' The writer does not hold that such knowledge is obtained from external or excarnate spirits, but rather through the personal Spirit Glimpses that is in man.--AUTHOR.
