Understand My Dreams

Dreams abyss

This was a reoccurring childhood dream that I had for years ending when I reached the age of 12, or so. The dream was all that I remembered after waking up in the morning and it really bothered me that I couldn’t remember what came before it. so what I woke up remembering so often was me swinging on a giant swing in an empty black space. I looked up and could see no top of the rope and when I looked down I could see no bottom, no floor. And you know that feeling you got in your stomach on swings as a kid? I felt that on every upswing. Of course time is weird in dreams and I felt this need, this uncontrollable urge to escape this endless swing by jumping off it into the dark abyss below. After building the courage to finally jump off the swing I always woke up before landing so I remember waking up frustrated by all of the unknowns regarding this very disturbing dream. I’m 66 years old today and have never forgotten this reoccurring dream from my childhood and I’m curious about an interpretation.

My dream Waking up I see that I'm stuck in a rocky abyss. The ground is brownish-red and the sky is the color of blood. A giant, 20 meters tall stands in front of me. It's skin an odd tan orange. Beastly in size and strength, it looks down at me with it's three eyes. Letting out a roar it begins after me as I quickly try and run away. My effort holds pointless as I run to a high and mighty wall of the red rock that makes up the abyss. The giant quickly goes to snatch me up, and I black out. Upon waking, I find myself in a hotel hallway. I finally get to the hotel room. Opening the door I take in my surroundings. The walls are white. A shagged light brown carpet sits beneath my feet. Looking toward the window I notice that see-through blue curtains are blowing from a draft. Upon further inspection I realize the window is fully closed, and the blinds are white, and closed as well. A brown leather chair sits across from an old t.v that has knobs and a broken antenna. A small glass coffee table sits in the middle. As I continue scrutinizing the area my father walks in from the bedroom. My mom quickly follows. They both begin talking and I go explore the bathroom. I notice that it's fairly small with only a toilet and a glass bowl on top of it. Looking closer I see that the bowl is full of wrapped condoms. I pick one up and observe it, then put it back. I turn around and my parents are acting rather strange. I pay them no mind. I walk out of our hotel room and feel an odd sense of loneliness as well as a sensation of being lost. As I walk down the hallway I contemplate over these feelings, passing by many doors that I seemed too have already opened. All of them empty. I continue walking until I get too the end of the hall and stop in front of a door. I pull out a golden key and hold it up too the door, unlocking it. I open the door and am surprised to find that not only is this room empty.. It is a complete void. Regardless of common sense, I step into the room, the door and the hotel disappearing behind me. The world moved around me with purples and blacks as well as some deep greens. All these colors swirling around non-stop. I simply watched the colors as they moved. After a few seconds I start too walk again. After a few hours of walking I reach a light and just continue into it, lacking any emotion. Once I enter the light, however, I begin too feel threatened and weak. The world turns dark and empty. Nothingness. I fall too my hands and knees, staring at the ground. (Even though their technically is no ground) seconds after I get dizzy and it feels as if I'm spinning. I then fall down face first unconscious. Upon waking, my vision blurs together and I see that i lay in a hospital bed. The world around me still appears frozen. I stand and walk out of the room. The doctors in the hall like statues. I walk down to the end of the hall into a bright light. After I seem to be engulfed within the blinding light, I awake.

I woke up in a dark gloomy setting. I felt very isolated, detached from this world and as if I had no physical body. In the distance I saw three tall mountains with dark luminous clouds hovering overhead. There was a terrible storm, with hurricane winds. Flashes of lightning blinded me. The sky was also purple and everything else was some shade of purple. I was hanging onto something for dear life, my grip was loosening when I felt an eerie presence and suddenly heard an ominous voice that made my soul tremble, "You have not seen the wrath of God." And with that my grip loosened and I fell into an endless abyss.
