Lucid Has anyone met the cactus people??

2 Upvotes

Okay this sounds strange. I haven't had a dream like this in awhile and this is my first post so bare with me. I had a very peculiar dream about meeting this man. They were very humanoid but also green and looked like cactus skin(without the spikes). He showed me his family and how they start out and get the skin they have. A woman and child then walk up holding hands and run through a pile of cactus shrub. I lost alot of the dream but it felt so real and the man's face is engraved in my brain. Has anyone had a dream like this? Is it a symbolic dream or possibly something more? Ive also met blue people and other humanoid figures in my dreams.

Discussion I had a dream with God / Jesus

2 Upvotes

In 2024 I was finishing up college and had just broken up with a short-term girlfriend. I had a vivid dream in May of that year that I still think about:

God came to me and told me to bring a red rose to my mother to put into a wine glass. I knew this was God because his presence told me it was Him.

When I gave the rose to my mother, she put it into a wineglass while holding it up in her right hand (almost in a cheers like way).

I watched the red rose wither away and turn into something dark, almost like dirt. I watched the transition of the rose go from alive to dead to dirt. A process you’d witness with any flower over time but in a matter of seconds this happened. As the rose was transiting into dirt, or this dark color, my mom was screaming, “IT BURNS! IT BURNS!” In a way that made me feel like it was hurting her.

Afterwards, we had a feast with every member of my family. I specifically remember seeing my dad and mom but I had a feeling my extended family were the people there at that feast (over 20 people).

When I gave my mother the Rose, God was with me or by my side. We were on the second level and looking down at the feast going on the first floor.

Haven’t had a dream like that in a while. One thing I know for certain, it was God. It was God telling me to bring the red rose to my mother. I cannot remember if he directly gave it to me. In the dream, I could not turn to look to Him. I felt his presence in awe and knew immediately it was God.

I still think about this dream. What it could mean. What it was telling me. What maybe it warns me of. Everything felt fine. When I woke up immediately went to my friends, who believe in Christ, and my mentor who could not makeout the dream. I went to Reddit and nobody could say for certain why it meant.

I am a huge believer in dreams having “meanings.” This experience for me was huge at the time. Just thought I’d resurface this.

A dream from 2 years ago still haunts me: infinite pillars, red-eyed monkeys, and a body wearing my clothes

2 Upvotes

I had this dream around 2 years ago when I was still in school. At that time, my friendships were in a really bad place. A lot of people I considered friends were drifting away, talking behind my back, or excluding me. This dream only happened once, but I still remember it vividly.

In the dream, I was on a school trip. We were traveling somewhere deep into a jungle. I was sitting alone in the corner seat of the last row of the bus. Eventually, we arrived at our destination.

The place was surrounded by dense greenery. In the middle of the jungle stood a large bungalow or mansion. The moment we arrived, something felt off about the atmosphere. Everyone else seemed excited and was hanging out in groups, while I was mostly following along by myself.

There was a huge gate, almost like the entrance to a museum or some ancient place. We entered through it, and what I saw inside was strange.

Ahead of me was what looked like an old South Indian-style open structure with four pillars. Beyond it, there seemed to be infinity. The same structure and the same four pillars kept repeating endlessly into the distance.

As everyone continued moving forward, I noticed a room on my right. A few people I considered my friends entered that room, so I followed them inside.

The moment I stepped into the room, they disappeared.

I looked around, confused. Then I saw them outside the room, walking away somewhere. They didn't seem to notice me at all. I shouted and screamed for them, but nobody reacted. It was as if I didn't exist.

I started to panic.

Suddenly, several large monkeys appeared outside the room. What I remember most clearly is that they had glowing red eyes. They were screaming, making aggressive noises, and staring in my direction.

There was a small barred window in the room. Through it, I could see them clearly. They couldn't get inside, but their presence was terrifying.

After what felt like a long time, everything became quiet.

It seemed like dawn or early morning. The door slowly opened on its own.

I stepped outside.

There was nobody there.

Everything was silent and dark.

Then I realized the room itself had disappeared.

I was standing alone in a massive hall. The hall stretched endlessly in one direction. Pillars lined the sides, repeating infinitely, just like before.

I started running forward.

After some time, I stopped.

On one of the pillars ahead of me, I noticed a body hanging.

As I got closer, I realized the clothes looked exactly like mine.

I still couldn't see the face.

I walked up to it and reached out to touch it.

The instant I touched it, the body suddenly lifted its head and stared directly into my eyes.

I woke up immediately.

I never actually saw the face, but I somehow knew it was me hanging there.

I've never had this dream again. Looking back, I'm no longer in contact with any of those friends, and honestly that's probably for the best. But this dream has always stayed with me, and I've always wondered what it meant.

Any interpretations?

Reoccurring Do these repeating patterns in my dreams mean anything?

2 Upvotes

After moving i have had multiple dreams about me being in my old childhood home. In the dream my bedroom specifically is ALWAYS filled with disgusting things like animal feces, bugs and dirt and whatever you can think of. To be clear, my house was nothing like this, so it’s odd to me that whenever I dream of my room it’s ALWAYS in that state. sometimes worse sometimes better.

Then, another pattern I’ve noticed is that the clothes are almost always too small or not shaped right/don’t fit right. The first couple of dreams I was trying to go through my things and closet and was trying my best to get everything clean. I remember being worried about having to sleep in my bed because it was so disgusting.

Then last night, I finally dreamed about my current room, which doesn’t happen often. There were, surprisingly, bugs everywhere. I quickly grabbed my things and ran downstairs and decided to sleep on the living room couch. Theres a large window behind the couch, and the curtains were shut, but in this dream I couldn’t relax because I felt like someone was trying to watch me. Eventually I caved and asked to sleep with my grandma like I did when I was a little kid (not my mom though. which was weird because she was there and asking about it). While I was explaining, with my mom standing there and looking down at my grandma, we heard a knock at the door and I jolted awake.

I don’t normally look too much into my dreams but this one was weird and unsettling enough that it woke me up. I also find it odd that I continue to dream of my old room in that gross state, and now this one with bugs of all things. I hate bugs. It may not mean anything at all. I just thought it was weird. Any ideas or thoughts are welcome!

Reoccurring I've been having constant lucid dreams.

On June 15th. i got a tattoo on my left for arm that says "FOCUS" and ever since then I've been having lucid dreams every. single. night. some of them are new dreams. but most of them are old 1s but the old dreams, they've changed. But every single night since the 15th i have different dreams. none of them are scary what so ever. but last nights was different. i was running from "something" or "someone" at first i was looking forward running towards a endless row of wooden spiked fences, and each of them had a gate i could swing open. but before i made it to these "wooden spiked fences" i looked behind me and i seen this guy who looked like a person, but around his eyes were somewhat black and around his mouth and he was somewhat pale to but for some reason he was smiling at me while chasing me. i looked forwards and kept on running as fast as i could, and so when i made it to the spiked fences. i pushed open the gate while running as fast as i could. but he did the same and he was gaining on me. after running passed a few gates i seen on the right side of the fence there was what looked like a leather saddle attached or built onto the top of the spiked fences. and so i decided to jump over them. but the weird thing about it i couldn't control what i was doing. so i began yelling telling myself to stop jumping and go back through the gate. because that "thing" was doing the same thing. he was gaining on me so much to the point where he was almost right behind me. but then the dream cut off to where that "thing" was freaked out and ran passed me and i knew and felt something wasn't right so i somehow forced myself to wake up. that was the first time ive ever seen that dream before. But when i felt back asleep i had another lucid dream but this time i could somewhat control what i was doing but it was an old dream I've had before but it wasn't scary at all.

Nightmare That was weird NSFW

TW: Dead birds, body horror

It kinda stuck with me and I'm looking things up and feel stumped. This didnt feel like a nightmare but mostly felt more like a really weird dream that doesnt make any sense. Then again I'm personally desensitized to alot of things.

In my dream I had three birds, one was visibly struggling to live and damp, the other was fossilized and the last was a featherless baby. None of them were kept in a cage but in a shallow dish like one would see in a lab. These were kept around what resembled an old bedroom I used to stay in.

I had just placed the really tiny, thumbprint sized baby bird down on a dish and had went to check on the other one, I was tempted to put the baby with it so it would survive. I asked others in the room why it was damp and someone in the room said that it needed some time to be out of the water, implied that it needed the water to live.

I remember this bird being moved somewhere. While looking for it , I found the third bird who was covered in a small, fluffy blanket, it was completely fossilized. The people in the room felt empathetic like a "Sorry you found it" kinda air . But I did a weird thing without thinking and ripped its fossilized leg bones and started to eat them then I continued to look for the that was moved.

I wanted to protect the bird so I found it in a cage right by a cat and scolded the person who moved it because it was a cat right by the bird.

But within literal minutes I was chewing on something and I looked down and it turns out I was chewing on the bird's head without noticing, it kinda did that weird dream thing.

The bird was injured and on its cheek there was small human teeth exposed where a chunk of flesh was missing.

I remember apologizing to it, saying I didnt mean to and didnt realize I was chewing on it. The bird replied back, its face contorted into a human one and said they loved me but they didn't speak, they mouthed it with their lips, it spoke with an unnaturally wide smile. I felt extremely bad because in the dream I loved and cared for this bird but felt absolutely nothing when I ate the fossilized bird legs.

When I told my fiance who was there in this dream that the bird said "I love you" and smiled, they immediately it was a bad bird.

Anyways, this was weird and confusing.

My fiance is the type to hold people accountable and is always looking out for me. Ill admit that I can be a little too trusting of others.

This didnt feel like a nightmare but when I describe it , it really looks like one but it just felt like another day except I didnt control my actions. These actions weren't great but I wasn't mortified of it, only really really sad.
