Entries from Proving
Unable to move, I feel plastered to the furniture, to the sofa. I am stuck here. It is this heaviness and
weightiness, I just can't move, a complete surrender to it, wanting to it and being unable to move, so
surrender.
My relationship with time has totally shifted. I have no clear concept of time. Im in my own world, on
my own time.
I feel when I am meeting someone that I am not fully there. I listened and responded, but I feel off. I am not
quite having a conversation with a person and yet I am like I am not quite there.
It is a little bit scary, I have to get a hold of myself, I have to re-land in this plane. I am off, out of time
and space, there is a dividing line with time that connects us to this plane. I am off floating away.
[My brain is] a strange filtration system that is all muddied up. I cannot quite put the pieces together.
This is just the way it is.
It was like I could only see what was immediately in front of me, and I had to just take a little at a
time. Anything outside of that was blurry. Its kind of nice
I'm like 4 year old. I just want to do what I want to do, I want to take naps when I want to take naps, I
want to eat what I want to eat.
I feel you want something from me and I need to retreat a bit. You look at me and I want to pull back,
curl up (hands over face) and be with myself in a safe place.
Too complicated. I don't care, get me out of here stop looking at me, (hg) get away, I'm done.
Like standing in the middle of a busy intersection, I cant move, dont know which way to turn, how
to respond,
Open, not protected, no cover, not safe, wide open. No defenses, little, small.
Very on guard cautious weary fearful of least movement yet desire to move slowly. It like I cant relax
take a break I cant not be vigilant I have to be vigilant.
Returning late to my mother's apartment where I am staying, I start to worryWhat if someone went in
there and now she is lying in a pool of blood.
Irritable at work today. I feel as if people are taking advantage of me and I am suspicious about their motives. I am pretty sure someone is stealing from me and now I don't trust anyone. Everything
Feeling more mischievous than usual! Breaking the rules and I don't care

I felt so sad. I was completely devastated. I felt alone, separate,
not part of, left out. I was crying and crying I wanted them to
understand what I was feeling, what I was experiencing,to
not be singled out in any sort of a way.
Overwhelming, decaying smell and feeling of decay, but without
much emotion.
All of a sudden I was overwhelmed by a very real sense of
being loved and protected by the universe. My heart felt
full, my eyes started to well up.
its as if our souls were connected. And, he took care of my
deepest need which was not even something I mentioned
to him.
I woke with a smile from my dream.
It gave me access to my being in such a profound and uncomplicated way.
Why cant I be humbly awesome & my fullest?
but I got SO FURIOUS, really quick and I gave him a kind of disciplinary squeeze and he took off and
hid behind the couch!! .. this quick flash of anger - just furious!!! It dissipated really fast both times
Now I am at the office, no one is bothering me. Perfect.
I hope they don't judge me.
Having sex with a stranger of opposite gender than I am typically attracted to. Felt very natural,
amorous, and satisfying in the dream.
The Top 6 Didelphis Dreams
My husband, daughter, and I went to dinner in a huge square building; don't know why; had dinner with a middle-aged
woman, pleasant; don't remember anything about it; feeling was pleasant. The woman wants to leave via a balcony or
outside steps; I tell her I can't due to fear of heights. Later, this woman or another woman has died and we're doing an
autopsy on her, but she can still talk. We're cutting her in slices from the head downward; she's all brown on the cut
surface. She's telling us how to proceed. Feeling: weirdness; what are we doing; there was purpose, but confusion about
why is this dead woman is talking, and has no pain. Need to continue with the autopsy, but strange feeling about why
we're doing this. My thoughts this morning are that there is much that I have to do, but sometimes don't quite get the
purpose; producing ambivalence, frustration, weight on my chest surface, pushing inward; the weight moves on top of
shoulders pushing downward; then moves to the neck pushing inward, up to the eyes, pressure pushing inward; to the
scalp, which tightens and to the occiput tightens; then pressure fades away. Relief. (05)
Children falling into swimming pools, the adults let them, the children didn't know how to swim. Eventually the pool
was filled with body parts and blood, and I didn't want to let my children swim in this, but I also felt indifferent to this.

Lucid dreams of being aware of exactly how to go outside of my body. (02)
In the middle of the night. My husband, dog and I were being held captive. The setting was our cabin. We were surrounded down at the lake and up the eastern side of the cabin, property and path that led down to the lake. It think we
were told to stay in our cabin and knew they were coming back for us. So we stayed. I looked around and saw they had
a noose hanging on their property that had attachments for hands and feet to stretch a human. There was a big black
horse running around, as if scared or crazed, doing fast loops in the torn up earth. We could hear voices because some
of their people were left behind. But, the scary guys we knew would kill us had not yet come back. Then we started to
hear their voices. My husband said, lets go!. I ran upstairs to get a backpack and get my dog and it felt like there was

just too much to do and think of before escaping. Why didnt we escape sooner? I
laid down on the bed upstairs and snuggled my dog. The feeling of this dream was
not fear but worry, unfairness, overwhelm... (08)
I was being sent to a convention with along with 2 men, one of whom I knew and
was romantically interested in many years ago, I never saw him in the dream, however. He and I were assigned to a room together. I wondered if something might
happen between us that night. The room had 2 bunk beds and his stuff was on the
one furthest from the door. My bed was right near the door. The door was a
"saloon type" door that swung open from either side, was open on the top and the
bottom and had no lock. I was most concerned about safety with this door at night.
Would someone come and steal my stuff? How could I arrange my stuff to protect
it and to be aware if someone came in? The room was facing the hotel desk and it
had a little element of safety but not enough. The feeling was of great vulnerability.
. I had to arrange my things, hide them a bit, so that somebody wouldn't take my
stuff. (01)
I was at class and all of the teachers were there all talking at once, and I couldnt
understand what they were saying. I asked them to stop talking and interrupting
because I couldnt hear any of them. Then everyone got quiet and looked at me. It
was like I had made some terrible mistake by speaking out against them and they
turned on me. Someone was laughing at me, and I started to cry. I felt so misunderstood and angry, like how could they be so cruel. I was sobbing and crying and sure that my career would be ruined. it
was agonizing. no one would show me any understanding or compassion, and I wanted them to say, Oh, its ok, this is
because of the proving. but nobody did. Unfairly victimized. Mad. I cant get the information because you are jabbering over each other. Some man, the dean of the school, wanted to talk to me after class. Betrayed. Misunderstood.
Have compassion for me! Cast out of the group. Sobbing. So sad I am wrongly treated. (03)
