badstarI didn't sleep much lat night and I think i'm coming dwn with something. My throat is kinda sore this morning and I've got the sniffles.
I had a weird dream last night...or maybe it was a series of dreams, I'm not sure. But what I remember of it was initially seeing a silhouette of a house near a hill and a night sky. Countryish Lancaster-County-like setting. And then periodically through the dream I would feel like I was falling through a silent black void, sometimes I would see some stars like a night sky (Much like the scene at the very beginning of the game Myst, if anyone remembers that....) and then I would stop falling, as if I had been on solid ground all the time. The space I was in was still completely black with no light source but I was able to see normally. Each time I stopped falling, I found myself in the presence of a god. I only remember two for sure, but I know it happened more than that. The first that I remember specifically was Dionysus. It was like a chance passing of an aquaintence in a hallway. "Oh, it's you. Hello," he said, smiled slightly and walked on. He had very long, purple-black hair and wore a black suit. Tie and all. Like Men In Black. But no sunglasses.
The other that I remember was Hekate. I did not see Her, but felt her presence, first slithering around me like a snake and then settled into a permeating pressure, like somethgin pressing into my skin from all sides, but it was oddly not overwhelming or intrusive. There was a sense of someone walking around me in circles, slowly...almost as if inspecting me, and eventually I had a feeling of approval, as if I had passed inspection or...whatever it was.
I know that there were other meetings with other gods, all of which I am familiar through their mythology but none that I particularly worship closely- I don't think any others were particularly notable enough that I remember them or maybe I just lost a lot of the dream between sleeping and waking. In between each "meeting", I fell through the black void again.
At the end of the dream I was on a residential city street, still at night. All the house porch lights were off except for mine (This neighborhood in my dream was not mine, and OI have never lived in a neighborhood resembling this, but it is a familiar scene to many I'm sure. Residntial city, semi-detatched two-story brick homes with porches and small front yards). One of my bothers was sitting on a sofa on the porch, waiting for someone else, I didn't speak to him, but opened the front window of the house and crawled in and went to sleep.
