Dream #1: Apocalypse

Share: This is a dream I had when I was around 7 or 8 years old. This dream had such an impact on me that even today at 55 I remember it in all its details. At that time I often dreamed of the End of the World and I was very afraid of this event.

Dream: I am with my father, I hold his hand and we walk on a quiet road. We return home. Suddenly dusk sets in and the number “10” appears in the sky. The number is very large and very bright. At this moment I know that it is the sign of the End of the World, then the number "10" disappears and the number "9" appears, and so on for all the numbers, it is a countdown and then "0" will be the End of the World, I'm so scared, my father and I walk faster to be home before the countdown is over. At the number “4” the cars driving on the road are thrown into the ditch at the same time as they are flattened and piled on top of each other. The ditches are filling up quickly. At the number "1" we still haven't arrived home, I know we are going to die.

Dream #2: A black cat

Share: Very young, my parents had a lot of problems with me, here's a bit of the story: I am the 2nd in a family of 6 children. My mother told me that I had an atrocious fear of cats following so many nightmares that one night I, as usual, came to join my parents in their bed, lying between them and regularly turning the my mother's head to look at me, I couldn't sleep. So much so that my exasperated father got up and turned on the light, he took me in his arms and put me in front of the mirror and he shouted at me “look, you can see that you don’t have no cat ears.” Afterwards my mother told me that I had a panic attack and that they had to take me to the doctor and get me a sedative. My brothers who had heard of the story did not fail to torment me by saying “Ha! You have cat ears” and in broad daylight I could find myself standing on a chair screaming to my mother for help.

Dream: I am alone at dusk, it is almost night, on a dark road without noise; I want to go to a party. I move forward and I'm not reassured at all, when suddenly a beautiful black cat appears. I come to approach him and suddenly he looks at me with piercing eyes and shouts. I| turns around and urinates on me then he disappears. Disconcerted, I go to the party, it was a costume ball and I remember being a teenager. There were lots of people, music and everyone was celebrating and dancing. One of my friends then asked me to take off my mask, which I did. Subsequently he asked me again to take off my mask, I replied: “but I already took it off”. He starts laughing and says to me: “Are you kidding me? » I then went into a bathroom and closed the door, I looked in a mirror and my mask was really horrible, I took it off, and underneath it was the same, I I removed the horror again and again and again. That's when I woke up panicking every night.

Dream #3: At the crossroads

Share: This is a very important dream for me, because I had it 3 years ago at the start of my relationship. These days, my relationship is in crisis and this dream often comes to mind. Context: 3 years ago, at the time of the dream, I had just experienced burnout. I was on sick leave for a month. I often went to recharge my batteries in the valley near a magnificent waterfall and that's where I met Francesco. The water from the waterfall falls into a magnificent natural pool, which is black at the bottom (you cannot see through the water due to this lack of light) but there is a magnificent rainbow every day which forms around the pelvis. As I am afraid of water, I asked Francesco to accompany me and he swam next to me... I was reassured by his presence. I thus dared to enter this place which for me is sacred. It's a dream in two parts... (I don't know if it's the same night or with an interval).

Dream: I'm walking down a path and I hear my ex-boyfriend behind me trying to run to reach me (in reality, I was in the process of ending a difficult relationship). .. as I walk faster than him, he has difficulty and I hear him breathing heavily. Me, I walk in the direction of Francesco (who in reality is my boyfriend). I see Francesco who turns back towards me, smiles, then looks down, turns and continues walking quickly. In front of us there is a mountain, I see two paths, the first which goes up the mountain and the second which goes around it, on the left side of the mountain. Francesco leaves, choosing the second path and I'm relieved because he doesn't go up... so I tell myself that if I walk quickly I'm lucky to catch up with him. I have a feeling of hope. In another part of the dream, I see Francesco and he tells me that we have a lesson to learn together... (in reality, I have often wondered what this lesson would be).

Dream #4: Interior designer

Dream: I am an interior designer. I'm going to see a lady I don't actually know. Inside, all the walls are wallpapered in the same color. This is a wallpaper with large red and green tile patterns. I find this really old and sad. I visit the house. There is a young boy, the lady's son. I ask him if he was the one who hung the wallpaper. He tells me yes. I ask him if it was for convenience that he used the same paper. He tells me yes. I go to the lady's room and decide to transform everything. I already imagine in my mind the colors and layout I want to make. I see beautiful white sheets and light.
