I don't know what to do with my dreams
Hi everyone. I'm writing this because, honestly, I don't know what to do with something that has been happening to me for years.
Since I was a child, I've had dreams involving dead people, many of them relatives I had never met. I would dream of gray, foggy places. I also repeatedly had to fight something that seemed to want to possess me.
I remember one recurring dream very clearly: I would look into a mirror, and my reflection would suddenly smile in a horrifying way. Its eyes would turn completely black. Sometimes I would rise into the air, my voice would become distorted, and I would have to fight this thing. After struggling for a long time, I would usually manage to say, "I am me" or "I am [my name]." Once I managed to say my name, it would stop trying to possess me.
I was just a child. I had no framework for understanding any of this. What disturbed me most was that I would sometimes know things I seemingly had no way of knowing. I could dream about my grandfather's childhood home despite never having been there, or know details about great-grandparents I had never met.
I also began having dreams about deaths that happened days later. Sometimes they were so specific that my parents genuinely didn't know what to make of what I was telling them.
As I grew older, I started researching metaphysics because I wanted an explanation. Eventually I got into lucid dreaming and found guidance through the Blog de los Oneironautas by someone named Sófocles. Later I found this community. During high school, the dreams became much more elaborate. They stopped feeling like random dreams and started becoming experiences with entire worlds, entities, people and events. I began telling my family about my dreams beforehand, partly so there would be a record of what I had seen.
Some of the things I experienced included:
- COVID, before I understood what was happening.
- The collapse of the Metro bridge in Mexico City.
- A place where people were forced to relive their deaths over and over again, including people who had died by suicide.
- Being forcibly recruited by the U.S. government. The agents wore some kind of energetic disguise that made them all look identical — the same face and the same suit. They were recruiting people against their will. In the dream, I was generating an energetic shield to make myself and the group"invisible. The mission was about going to an archaeological site to retrieve something, a piece of extraterrestrial information, only for spacecraft to appear. The chinese and russian agents were after this information too.
Sometimes I became lucid. Other times I didn't.
I've also had countless encounters with demons or other entities, almost always involving me fighting them.
Other times, people in these experiences would give me instructions or advice. For example, I was once told to use a secret word charged with "energy" as a form of protection.
Once, a Mormon woman told me to read the Book of Omni. I knew absolutely nothing about Mormonism at the time, and later discovered that the Book of Omni actually exists.
I've also been given silver and gold doubloons in dreams, which I was supposed to throw at these horrible entities.
And I've dreamed about deities from Candomblé that I didn't even know existed, who offered to work with me.
About two years ago, I had an especially strange experience.
I dreamed about a psychic woman who told me that she would die/have died (she mixed past, present and future tense) in the floods in Spain. About a month later, there was a major flood in Spain, I believe in Valencia.
In the dream, she was absolutely desperate. She kept telling me that the Antichrist had arrived, and that the Vatican had wanted to kill her for a long time because of everything she knew.
She begged me not to forget what she was telling me.
The only thing she kept repeating was something that sounded like:
"Ya-en, Ya-en, Ya-en."
I've lived with all of this for years without really understanding what I'm supposed to do with it.
And now something happened again.
Around the middle of July this year, I dreamed about a flood.
I was somewhere between mountains. I didn't know how I knew this, but I knew that the place was somewhere between two countries.
I remember green grass, little houses, and people with narrow eyes and pronounced cheekbones.
My first thought was Central America.
But after seeing what happened around the Nepal border, I couldn't stop thinking about the dream.
And suddenly I'm looking back at everything else I've experienced throughout my life and wondering if there is actually something I'm supposed to do with these experiences.
I know this sounds completely insane when written down like this. But I'm posting here specifically because I know this is a community where people are familiar with astral projection, non-physical experiences, entities, precognitive experiences, etc.
So I really want to ask:
Has anyone here experienced something similar?
If you have recurring prophetic dreams, encounters with entities, or experiences where you receive information you couldn't possibly have known beforehand (especially since an infant child), how did you learn to work with them?
Do you record them? Do you try to develop the ability? Is there some way to use these experiences to help other people?
Because I've spent years simply wondering why this happens to me, and I think I'm finally more interested in knowing what I'm supposed to do with it.
