Dream #17: "Anima IV"

Classification: Type III
Age: Twenty-eight

A familiar figure walked through a crowd of shadows. Our eyes met, for an instant, by chance alone. Time dilated, slowed, stopped. The world was continuing, but we were, for that instant, locked into infinite time.

Dream #16: Dragons

Classification: Type II
Age: Twenty-six

I was a child in an animated world, full of other children. An old woman came to me, and gave me a small and elaborately decorated clay pot, about the size of a tea cup. I opened the lid and found a number of tiny red pills within, about the size of a peppercorn each. I ate one of these, and it tasted like wonderful fruit, dissolving in my mouth into tiny grains.

Dream #15: Control Yourself

Classification: Type I
Age: Twenty-six years old.

I awake with the song "Kids" by MGMT embedded in my consciousness to such a degree that I continuously think about it throughout the entire day to follow. The only words that I know of the song are "control yourself; take only what you need from it."

Dream #14: Daughter

Classification: Type II
Age: Twenty-five years old.

I am driving a ’77 Camero down a highway. I am driving recklessly and fast. I must find her; I must find my daughter.

Dream #13: Impatience

Classification: Type I
Age: Twenty-five years old.

A knocking. Impatience. The question: "Are we going?."

Dream #12: "Expedition"

Classification: Type II
Age: Twenty-five years old.

I am with a group of three close friends, all four of us doctors or scientists. We are planning to embark upon an expedition. My character is male, as are two of the others, and one is female. Our destination is a remote island somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. We secure a small twin engine turboprop aircraft and begin the journey. We are planning to study some unspecified mysterious phenomenon upon the island once we get there.

Dream #11: "Fragment"

Classification: Type I
Age: Twenty-four years old.

Someone is feeding or serving me something. I am reclining on a "couch" in a "house." (Neither were more distinct than an idea.) A vast door opens in front of me and I see something that is a violation and an affront. (It is formless and chaotic.) I lurch out of my seat to unleash my wrath upon this thing, but I find myself chained with thick chains by both arms. I know that I am chained of my own accord.

Dream #10: "Shower"

Classification: Type II
Age: Twenty-four years old.

I appear in the character of a government agent. I have a very important purpose to fulfill, some secret function of the bureau for whom I work, but this function is a mystery. I am en route to a certain location whereat I shall fulfill this function (“again” is implied). Along the way it is expedient for me to take respite at a certain way station, as it is ideally situated along the path of my journey. This way station is my home town, the town of my birthplace and upbringing.

Dream #9: "Anima III"

Classification: Type III
Age: Twenty-four years old.

I am outside a church, in the parking lot, at night. It is peaceful. I am walking next to a girl I know, but I know that I am alone. She is aware of my presence, but she is just a visitor to this place. I will let her walk for a while, for I enjoy thinking about her.

Dream #8: "Anima II"

Classification: Type II
Age: Twenty-three years old.

There are a variety of scenes muddled together: a dilapidated apartment, a college dorm room, a brightly-lit forest, a mountain top, etc. In all these scenes the Anima (actually represented by an Anima image and not as before a woman who is later recognized as the Anima) is present engaging in lesbian orgies. There is always an expression of mixed happiness, innocence, and lust on her face. Though I should be outraged or abhorred, I am apathetic.
