i am always interested in dreams. i do hope it's ok to post these here, i share in hopes to better understand my psych/subconscious and what messages might be relayed back to waking life.
for the past few days i've been having dreams of being in some kind of medieval war. in the dream i am wearing black bulky armor. i remember feeling the weight of it on my arms and shoulders. i am an exiled war chief/general. for some reason i find this role comforting. i thought, maybe i'm being told i need to toughen up. maybe this conflict has to do with my sudden disappearance from work. in the dream, across enemy lines, people peer back not knowing what waits, 'out there'. i saw two people standing over a ledge looking out into nothing. maybe they were staring out at the sky. these two people had the head of a goat and very long necks. i walked up to each and sliced through their necks with my sword. it was bloody. they seemed like innocent bystanders. i didn't understand my actions, but thought very little of it. instead i later found my father and his collection of swords. there were three resting against a wall- we were standing on a stoned stairwell outside. i told him he had a unique collection and asked if i could have one but he refused. instead i was given my sword from a black cloud of people with arms reaching out- it didn't seem as unique or as heavy as my fathers but once it was placed in my hands i was happy and comfortable. at the end of the dream i tried demonstrating to my father i was ready for something by engaging in battle with him. he was able to deflect every blow but the last, which ended with my fist held up next to his face. i didn't swing- i just smiled knowing i was able to find an opening then walked away.
Eric my first reaction to your dream is that u may have guides that r showing u a bit of your past. You certainly have a colorful inner life. We often need to awaken to the spiritual warrior inside ourselves. As u may or may not know goats have often been associated with evil demonic beings. We fight many demonic beings in our lives. We r not encountering a physical world but also principalities of darkness who pose themselves in human form. They do not know that they r often being used by dark spirits.
Is your real father still living? What is your relationship to him? Any how u r given the weapons necessary to ward off evil yet y
u find it necessary to subdue your father ~ i do not know. If i had such dreams i would b asking my spirit guides to answer my questions about these dreams before retiring....
