Is the animal dream poll still on? If so, here is my two nickels.
Before I go into dreams ,I do want to say before my Kundalini activated (It's those 'aliens' you know..saying okay..let's activate this ones energy today and see what happens'..3,2,1,,,Houston we have blast off.'.LOL)...2 months before my first full K, I experienced many run ins with real snakes in my yard. A beautiful 5 foot red rat snake, that I almost grasped while picking up tree branches! 'Yikes..that branch moved!!' She was beautiful and I got to touch her and I have since learned lives here in mama oak tree(yes my trees here have names and personality!!)..I found her shed skin later in tree nook and kept it..a sacred gift from her to me I feel! Also...a few coral snakes, a few of the guys who look like coral snakes but have no venom crossed my path, and my cat dragged a black rat snake..about 2 feet long..into the house one day when I had left sliding glass door open..and sat there in hallway next to it..looking at me like, this is for you!! Now that was a BIG surprise!! (it was quite alive still and fine,she didn't injure it a bit which I found strange knowing Keiko's usual feline killer antics)!) and finally in single span of 2 days..3 pigmy rattlers, 2 of which my husband did in due to danger of venom and a horse residing here..well..Right before my first k experience..I refused to let my husband kill the 3rd pigmy rattler ..I just felt something very deep looking at it and said no,no more killing of the critters..they are just lost!!..!! and I instead found courage(lol..after failing to convince hubby to do it) and took it down to the river to let it go..and told it to not find it's way again where people were..to stay away from people and it will live long and happy(yes I stood there talking to a snake as I watched it slither off..)maybe..it is interesting that one week later...my kundalini awakened ! Maybe I was being tested and got something right with choice to not kill 3rd pigmy?? Who knows?? Although I would see snakes now and then when I garden..the amount of my snake run ins and sightings
middot; at this time...just feels rather extraordinary to me still today. I also received during this period frequent visits from the hawk,a pair of baby mother less raccoons who were huddled right at my pond and let me just pick them up and I nursed them to grow big and free now(Chevas and Hector)..a crow(the crow saved my life that day..another story..ah heck..I will tell it)..a unusual amount of yellow butterflies same day ,that the crow actually was wanting to show me(that was the day I decided I could and would heal myself,my life, I would not give in to FMS pain and loss of function..if not at least find a total cure...I would find/see the good in life again..get my life back!!..for the crow came and showed me that day..it was still all around me..love and beauty ..amazing butterflies out of nowhere..'miracles' are real..if you believe!! if I just opened my heart and eyes to them and believed in the beauty!! I knew then deeply that day..a shift in me took place..there was something positive to come out of this Fibromyalgia that was 'stealing' my life then..I just needed to see it as a huge gift of learning too!! I was going to DO IT and ..I have a insistent crow who made me put that valium bottle down and go outside to LOOK beyond myself..too see a hundred butterflies all grouped there..so beautiful...my little struggle,was nothing..so small!! Yes, I have one crow ...to thank for that and being here today!!),also a big old gopher turtle kept popping up and 2 owls during this period. All were teaching and guiding me..to again love earth and to stay..to make again a decision to BE HERE FULLY.
Something was very much up with all these 'visits'!! It was Time for miss silly Shelly to wake up!! LOL....
As far as dreams...as a child I often dreamt of a shark swimming around and around me...
also..of being in the middle of a school of dolphin. Could of been from watching too many Flipper episodes as a young one??....yet years later(age 15)...while living on Guam and snorkeling...I experienced both of these encounters at Double Reef! Yes..one event was breathtaking..well both were...but one had me saying Oh..please 'don't go yet' and one had me swimming like a bat out of hell for the boat,praying my butt off and painfully aware that I was swimming on top of the water..like a floating tasty cork as I made my way to the boat...."don't look back,,gotta look back..where is it?..is it right behind me?..oh god help me just get to the boat.."LOL.....I shook for awhile after that one....''NICE BOAT, LOVE THE BOAT...STAY ON THE BOAT NOW..''..grin.
Current animal dreams...
I dream of a trio of 'talking' horses,who feel like wise guardians to me in these dreams and last dream they were trying to teach me freedom..that I can be free..even if in a fenced pasture..they showed me they could jump over and get out at anytime,but don't need too to be free so don;t..they jumped out and right back in!! ..because there is freedom inside always..the fence is illusion!! ...that is true freedom they said! then they told me to run with them and showed me my inner freedom by running across a field ,of course in total joy and abandon!! Wonderful dream as I became a horse too!! Then dreams of, a panther, a crow and group of foxes.And don't laugh,but this one dream that has that 'other quality' ,of a message to it...was of a 10' inch yoda like/guinea pig critter! A guinea pig Buddha guru I guess..lol..!! His message was for me to keep walking the path and to trust I have much help all around me !! To never fear 'not knowing' something(in this dream I was looking for my very real little flying squirrel ,Turbo Tiki..and though I found him..I did not know if he was dead or alive(don;t ask,dream world)..and that is when I went out of the house to get help and there too my left, off of the walkway ,at my eye level,was a altar like rock thing and my Yoda guinea pig (he had about 12 other hamster like guru ones around him..but they weren't there for me..?? looking me eye level and saying the above!
Well...I have not dreamt of snakes..but I think I had their energy visits in real time! I believe animals will come in both worlds to you and I now have learned to pay attention to the animals(don't have to hit me over the head with it anymore!!LOL) who come to you from both realms at all times. Very truly, there is something to this.
Hmm, well that's my story.
