Magick Journal extract Fri 26th March 2009
The first section of the dream sequence occurred considerably sooner in the night than the second section of the dream. The first section comprised a scenario where I recognised the familiar landscape around a home in the dreamscape. I was aware of my partner & wife by my side in the dream sequence. As we watched the tree line around the fringes of the hill, which was in the general direction of our house, we witnessed a series of explosions close by. However, as we walked across the fields closer to the home, we noted that the explosions and subsequent fires were not as close to our house as we’d first thought.
The second section of the sequence occurred as a waking dream, which made me take note of both sequences. In the second section, we were once more wandering across the fields towards our home, when we watched a sudden and devastating volcanic eruption around the hillside near our house. As we watched in horror, we saw that there was total destruction. The realisation came with the dream sequence that the hillside and surround where our house and the community had been built was in the crater of a small dormant volcano. Obviously something had occurred which caused the volcano to become active once more. We had been unaware of the history of the hill and the idyllic knoll that had been our home.
The sense of the dream was ... it was symbolic and important in some way. It may well have been made up of elements of either a parallel existence or a previous life. The dream had colour and sensory awareness (Though the senses of smell, taste & touch were not evident in the sequence). It could well have been from a ‘soul perspective’ that is likely to make this sequence pre-emptive or predictive. Perhaps a community that nestles in the crater of an ancient volcano is about to be destroyed? But if so ... where?
