Dream: a funeral, intense emotions, and psychokinesis
August 05, 2004

Mom, Dad and I went to my childhood friend Mary Catherine's father's funeral together. It was in a huge, dark church where the coffin was up front by the altar and we waited in a long line to pay our respects to Mary's mom and say goodbye to Jim. Mary Catherine was nowhere to be found, which I found puzzling--I really wanted to see her. When we exited the line and were descending a staircase, presumably to leave, I was overcome with intense grief for Jim and for Mary Catherine, for losing her father. I broke down and wept on the staircase, blocking all the traffic behind me. Dad tried to simultaneously console and scoot me along but I was just so intensely sad that I was paralyzed.

I walked into my brother's bedroom (I think) in my parent's house and it had been absolutely ravaged by our cat. There were scratched pillows and sheets, stuff had been knocked off shelves, there were doodads all over the floor. Gavin wasn't as surprised by this as I was, but I became furious as I thought about how bad that cat is and how much I wanted it OUT. I knew it was hiding in the closet in some impossible place. The longer I stood there looking at the debris of what was once a clean room I became angrier and angrier and soon reached the point of complete fury.

As my anger grew, something happened: the things that had fallen on the floor began to vibrate slightly, like the floor was shaking. Then it turned from a slight vibration into everything kind of bouncing and moving--towards me! I was so angry, but I was really surprised that I was becoming some kind of magnet for everything in the room. Soon, the contents of the closet started to fly out towards me, including the cat which flew straight into my arms, startled. Immediately after catching the cat, everything stopped rattling and my anger even subsided. I never wanted to hurt the cat, I just wanted it out--but I was so shocked by what just happened that I didn't even yell at it, I just put the cat outside.

I've never had a dream that I had telekinesis or psychokinesis before, but here's what one website says: To dream that you are telekinetic, represents a higher level of awareness and consciousness. You are not utilizing your full potential and need to start putting your stored energy levels and mental abilities to use. In other words, your dream may imply that you need to put your thoughts into action. For some, dreams of telekinetic powers may indicate your latent paranormal abilities. On Psychokinesis, though, it says: To dream that you have psychokinesis, indicates your tendency to manipulate your surroundings. You are being over controlling.

Interesting!

I had a dream last night...the first one in a long time. I was the vice president. The president and I were exiting from a helicopter via fly-wire, and then I discovered an assassination plot. The president was murdered by a nuclear bomb, which I was able to out-run (in slow-motion, no less...my mind is like an action flick) and I found shelter with a ragtag band of youth. They didn't know I was the vice-president...so I didn't tell them, out of fear for my own safety. We would venture back to the surface to explore the utter devastation, armed to the teeth, and shooting at crazed individuals I was convinced were trying to kill me, since I would now effectively be the president. It was a post-apocalyptic nightmare. Freaky-deaky. What's your website got to say about all THAT!?

I think there's a bit of truth in both the psychokinesis and the telekinesis analyses (except for my latent paranormal abilities, perhaps). I also wonder if I was lucid dreaming? I don't know how all that works.

Chase--what did you watch before bed?

The meaning of your dream is very fascinating. It means you have the ability to make objects fly through the air towards you psychokinetically! Objects such a coffee and Frisket. Beware!!!!

Ack! Flying coffee and liquid friskett! I should temper my psychokinesis lest I get burned or...frisketted.
