Lifeguard
11/13/2024
I was at this mountain lake in Colorado. It was incredibly serene. I noticed a lifeguard about 5 feet away, and she motioned for me to come sit beside her. As we talked, there was an instant harmony between us. It felt remarkably comfortable talking to someone I'd never met before - like coming home.
In my next dream, just before waking up, I found myself in a war zone. A soldier was aiming his bazooka at the sky, attempting to shoot down an escaping helicopter.

1. Dream Classification
*[As I examine the dream-crystal before me, I sense its fundamental nature...]*
- This dream can be classified as a Transformation Dream. Transformation dreams often involve significant changes or transitions in the dreamer's life, symbolized by contrasting scenarios or settings. In dragon-lore, such dreams herald profound shifts in the dreamer's psyche, signaling a journey towards self-discovery and growth.
2. Thematic Essence
*[The dream-threads shimmer with meaning as I weave them through my claws...]*
- The overarching theme of this dream revolves around the juxtaposition of connection and conflict. It explores the themes of harmony and discord, comfort and chaos, perhaps reflecting the dreamer's inner conflicts or external challenges in waking life from both human and dragon perspectives.
3. Recurring Patterns
*[My ancient eyes detect the circular paths of these dream-symbols...]*
- The recurring patterns in this dream involve themes of unexpected encounters (the lifeguard), feelings of familiarity in unfamiliar situations, and sudden shifts from tranquility to turmoil. These patterns suggest a struggle between seeking stability and confronting chaos in the dreamer's psyche.
4. Symbol Interpretation
*[Each symbol glows with layers of meaning in my dragon-sight...]*
- The mountain lake symbolizes tranquility and inner peace, reflecting the dreamer's desire for emotional calm. The lifeguard represents guidance and protection, offering a sense of safety in the dreamer's journey. The war zone and soldier with a bazooka symbolize conflict and aggression, highlighting potential inner turmoil or external challenges.
- From a Jungian perspective, the mountain lake may represent the collective unconscious, the lifeguard could embody the anima archetype symbolizing the feminine aspect of the dreamer's psyche, while the soldier and war zone may represent the shadow aspects struggling for integration.
- Freudian interpretation might see the mountain lake as a symbol of the mother figure, the lifeguard as a manifestation of the dreamer's ego ideal, and the soldier with a bazooka as repressed aggressive impulses seeking expression.
- Modern psychology could view this dream as reflecting the dreamer's need for balance between peace and conflict, exploring the complexities of human relationships and the internal struggles we face in daily life. Dragons perceive such dreams as invitations to embrace transformation through facing inner and outer challenges.
5. Emotional Resonance
*[I taste the emotional flavors that permeate this dream...]*
- The dream carries a mix of emotions, from serenity and comfort in the presence of the lifeguard to fear and tension in the war zone. The dreamer may experience feelings of security, connection, anxiety, and aggression, reflecting a complex emotional landscape that mirrors the human psyche's depths.
6. Pattern Recognition
*[Like tracking celestial bodies across the night sky...]*
- Significant patterns in this dream suggest a duality between seeking harmony and confronting discord, balancing comfort with conflict. These patterns echo the eternal struggle between light and darkness, order and chaos, within the dreamer's subconscious and the broader human psyche.
7. Crystal Synthesis
*[Breathing a gentle flame to illuminate the complete picture...]*
- In summary, this dream weaves together themes of connection, conflict, and transformation, inviting the dreamer to explore the interplay between peace and turmoil in their inner world. As a dragon of wisdom, I counsel embracing both the tranquil waters of self-discovery and the fiery trials of growth, for true transformation arises from the union of opposites. Remember, dear dreamer, that through facing your inner conflicts and external challenges, you awaken the dragon within you, ready to soar to new heights of understanding and wisdom.

Catholic church
11/12/2024
I had a dream where I found myself in a Catholic church, in what seemed to be a predominantly Catholic town. Everyone I encountered was kind and welcoming, and a sense of harmony filled the air, which pleasantly surprised me. I engaged in conversations with the locals, rich with wisdom and insight. It made me realize how our preconceived views of others can sometimes be so far from the truth.

4. Symbol Interpretation
*[Each symbol glows with layers of meaning in my dragon-sight...]*
- From a Jungian perspective, the Catholic church represents a collective symbol of tradition and spiritual guidance, reflecting the dreamer's search for meaning and connection.

Dragons see it as a beacon of wisdom and contemplation.

Tennis ball
11/10/2024
I found myself once again in a realm of light, joy, wisdom, and bliss. From this state, dream-like visions rose like clouds.
In the first vision, I saw a man hitting a tennis ball, and it struck a massive apartment building, causing a commotion. The man, puzzled, got into his car to find out who had hit the ball. For some reason, I was with him, and together we climbed a fence and came upon an enormous, ancient building that towered hundreds of floors into the sky.
In the next scene, I was in a backyard surrounded by condos. The same man hit a tennis ball again, this time toward the windows of four nearby buildings. Each building had three people looking down from their windows, frowning as they watched the scene unfold.

Universal Studios
11/09/2024
"I had this one dream where I was on the roof of Universal Studios. A voice echoed from above, and suddenly, an ancient set of buildings appeared around me—structures unlike anything I'd ever seen, almost otherworldly. They were wonderful and mysterious, and I felt a deep sense of awe.
In the next part of the dream, there was a zip-line-like apparatus. Kids would hold onto it and glide across a lake as if they were boogie boarding. At the end of the ride, the zip line would launch them high into the sky, and everyone watching would laugh with joy."

Lava tube
11/08/2024
I've had this recurring dream many times. I discovered a lava tube in Maui and felt an instinct to explore it. After some time, I reached the end of the tube and found myself at the observatory in Maui. However, the observatory had transformed significantly since my last visit. It had become a small town filled with shops, entertainment, and various attractions. The place exuded an incredible vibe of knowledge and wisdom, with a touch of magic. It felt almost like being in Disneyland, creating a truly enchanting experience.

Cafe
11/07/2024
In my dream, I was traveling along a coastline with three other people on a bicycle-like contraption. We stopped at a café, and one of my friends ordered a massive breakfast—absolutely huge. I only ordered two eggs and sausage. At some point, I found myself in the café's kitchen, carrying an enormous six-foot bar. Somehow, I effortlessly leapt with this bar into the lobby, even though there wasn't much room to maneuver. The hostess looked at me in amazement, smiling as if she couldn't believe I could manage such a feat so easily.
Later in the dream, I had a vision of Swami Vivekananda and Paramahansa Yogananda.

Dome automation program
11/06/2024
I had a dream about the Haleakalā Observatory. I hadn't been there in 25 years, and my daughter Leilani and I were visiting. I met Paul Tanner, who was a software engineer when we built the dome automation program. Somehow, there was a party going on, and we found out that the party was in honor of Paul Tanner and me for building the dome automation program. I was quite shocked, as I had no idea this party was even being planned.
I also had a dream about being on a great island that was slowly sinking into the ocean. I was on these rocks, and they started to crumble into the ocean. Then I woke up.

Problem solving
11/05/2024
I was watching a drone in the sky, and it was acting strangely. Suddenly, it hit an electrical line, crashed, and started a grass fire. We immediately called the authorities.
My brother and I were surfing in Portugal. We decided to paddle around a jetty. My brother caught a small wave, but I paddled farther out. The next thing I knew, 30 feet of white water was crashing in the distance. I didn’t have a leash on my surfboard. Fortunately, for some unknown reason, the wave backed off, and I was able to paddle safely. Once I got past the break, the scene was serene. There were funky beachfront cottages right on the ocean. I wondered how to get out of the break and decided to ask someone.
Later, I was at a work event with my daughter. A co-worker offered to drive us to a location for the event. I mentioned that a relative needed to come along, but he refused. I told him that if my relative couldn’t come, I wouldn’t either. Somehow, I ended up at a counter, and a friend walked in and said, “I’ve got a car reservation for you.” That solved the problem.
