I was an inexperienced server in an Italian restaurant. The menu was difficult for me to understand and the descriptions of the dishes were very long. Johnny Depp, perhaps playing a character as he was dressed as an Egyptian King, ordered bolognesa (I don't even know if that is a thing) 3 times in a row. I asked "have you ordered this 3 times now?" He said yes it was his favorite.

He was accompanied by a blonde, maybe an actress, dressed as an Egyptian Queen. She ordered something I didn't understand. The king and queen are quite affectionate. She sits on his lap and she has a cobra crown and a cobra scepter. She kisses the scepter passionately. Very uncomfortable, but I can't look away.

I went outside for a break, then realized I hadn't placed the order. I ran inside to put the order in, and there was a meek cook that asked me why I hadn't made the dish.

Lots of gaps here. Suddenly I'm in a corporate setting with cubicles, but the kitchen is still there. I'm asking around for a shared computer so I can share my dream on NDC. Some people are helpful and some quite rude. I have a hard time with electronics in dreams. In this one I manage to pull the cords out of the wall accidentally, and jam some paper in a printer. I finally decide to write my dream down on paper.

When I finish, the man next to me says "do you work here?". Yes. He orders bolognesa and a fruit dessert. I don't know how to make it. He asks what I do. I say "I come to work and I go home". I had no answer that made sense or that made my life sound anything but terribly boring. (this is nothing like real life for me)

I call a friend in another kitchen to help me through making the dish. They have apartments for rent too. I need one. We have a long conversation while the man is anxiously hovering over me waiting for his food. I make this bolognesa with tortillas, red sauce and a lot of different cheeses, trying to make it look like the last ones the king ate. The dessert is full of berries. They need to be cooked and I don't know how. All of the glassware is dirty around me - causing me to get distracted.

I go back to the desk I'm working at to find that a member of the NDC has left me a gift - somehow transported electronically but manifested physically on the desk. His name is Mark and there is a note with the gift. It has numerology in it, from the dream I'd written. He says that 1743 (a date I'd written) was 1+7+4+3= 15 which means "Dark Sleep" which is for some reason good. I wonder if there is a book he gets this information from and make a mental note to ask him. The gift is pads of paper, ribbons of ink, miniature dressers (like in doll houses) with small, hand painted, lidded jars, and a large jar with a huge salamander in it. Mark signs off saying he's in a warm place at the beach like I am (though I'm not, it's cold where I am).

I try to name the salamander - I want to name it Mark but I think that would be offensive to the gift giver AND to Johnny Depp - who I just realized was Mark Antony.

Somewhere in this dream there was a deck or more of cards. There were only threes, nines and twelves and kings and queens.

There was more, it's escaped me now...
Wow, hugely symbolic dream and I didn't even catch half of it! "15" yes, isn't it our member named "Still" that's got some dreams about this number, lately? Not the only dreamers, probably but you are both new members here and both dreaming of, probably "2015."

We have some bot run lists that have "modify delete cities 2015" in at least 2 different combinations of those 4 terms.

Interesting! I'll have to go and have a peek at some of Still's dreams and see what coincides. I was quite groggy when I wrote this post this morning, and as I get through the day and reflect on it, it felt like a positive dream...like there were answers in my path. Albeit very confusing symbols/metaphors. I felt the numbers were significant, the cards in the multiples of 3 - and there is NO "12" card in a deck so that was strange. Also, the 3 servings of the meal to the "king". Three. Seems to be prevalent.

I'm still a little unsure how the bots work etc. I'll have to go explore that a bit more.

My redneck, simple explanation of the bots and bot runs that are posted each morning is that the computer bots scour websites on the internet where folks records their dreams. The words on the list are most-commonly dreamt/dreamed words over 10,000 common dream words. (Elders please correct me on what I may say that's amiss.)

We keep finding news reports/stories that the words pointed to, sometimes being metaphors but so often it's the words or some form of them, or are synonymous with them.

Reading bot run lists and our comments under them will help you see what and how we do it. Sure took me months to catch-on, and I tell ya that this is a blast to allowed to be a part of. It's reality-based all the way, and fun, even can be satisfying/rewarding to find the news and know that folks had dreamed of it.
Thanks for your "redneck" explanation ha. I have looked some of them over, and it is definitely difficult to understand at first glance. I think it might take me some time to catch on too. I do see "card" was mentioned in the last couple of days. Hmm.

Wow this is just SO much information. It'll take me a minute Smile

It feels overwhelming at first, meaning first several weeks. IMO, resist the feeling of pushing, forcing or working at it. Read, wonder, observe and it just comes, and you will start thinking of issues, current events, and headlines you've seen or news you heard that you know will be in hardcopy too, when you read certain words or groups of words in daily bot runs.

It's gonna be fine, and fun~
Great advice - thank you! I think I'll sit back, enjoy and learn for a bit. And continue to post any dreams I have. Thank you Nanny for the warm welcome. Smile
I'm a wordy-thing, but "details matter." (grin, but yeah?)

As long as I didn't discourage you from jumping in and sharing any insights, GOOD!
If you get a hunch and wanna, please post anytime. Otherwise.....relaxing and letting yourself get familiarized sounds wonderful.

LOL at myself, but sincerely written.

No discouragement at all, I actually just did! Still's dreams have me intrigued and she posted a link about the Vatican and the UN that was somewhat reminiscent of my feeding Italian food to a king last night...I jumped in Smile

Still catching up, getting a feel. It'll be a process no doubt.

you make me giggle. Smile
Hi XeeMaye and Welcome!

Thanks for sharing your dream. The salamander part of your dream caught my attention. A salamander is a fire elemental. Additionally, there are many interesting thoughts about what a salamander means when seen in a dream. They are amphibians as as so are keepers of dreams.
Here are 2 different links I listed that have detailed information about the meaning of salamanders. Maybe some of the information will speak to you.

You've got it!
Live it up, as Mama used to say.

I haven't got the hang of the dreambot lingo yet. my brain wants to make it all read like a sentence and I cant make anything of where to break phrases.
Thank you!

Wow these links are great. I hadn't thought to look up the symbolism of the salamander. This strikes me:

"....as the salamander hold symbolism of psyche, spirituality, emotion, and ease of motion. These attributes are intensified by the salamander's nocturnal nature because night time is symbolic of shadows, secrets, dreams, intuition and psychic abilities too."
and "If you dream of salamanders you may be entering a new phase of spiritual development"
and "The salamander is also associated with secrets, with the hidden, and therefore with your own personal depths and subconscious."

since it was just yesterday that I decided to join this community. I was hesitant, but felt like a forum like this could help me with some personal transformation, if only to pay closer attention to what is going on in my sleeping mind. Also:

"This is analogous of adaptability and adjusting to our environment."

as just yesterday I was talking to my BF about a new client I have work with next weekend and how I need to adapt to their ways a bit.

Keepers of Dreams. What a lovely (if ugly) pet to be gifted in my dream.

Thank you for these insights!!
You are very welcome. I am glad those links helped.
Yes and that's part of the brain-test, sorta thing. Sometimes two or three of the words work directly together in that order, or a bit mixed but they're together, and six of eight words even, may or could go together in some likely rearranged order, etc. etc.

Like today's bot run. I think I found a good hit. The word "class" is in the run, and this was a school of oh dear, was it high school? I think so, of students performing on a stage that collapsed under them. "class" stood for "school" and I forget the other words in the run, oh! "nostalgia." They were singing an old journey song "Don't Stop Believin." Well, "believing" is a bot run word today.

You could go read today's run if you haven't, and see how many words aren't in the news story but other words are synonymous with them or point to them in some way. I forget what they are, now.

I did take a gander at the list. I think I'm like Still, don't have the hang of it, but it's certainly interesting to watch the comments and hear Eagle1's summations.
I hear ya and doubt myself regularly, too.

Yeah, I caught the salamander reference, too, as well as the mention of 15. That number is seriously popping up for us, isn't it? Wink

As for the cards, somehow I was reminded of tarot cards.

Hard to concentrate at the moment. The rest of the inhabitants of the house are watching "Taken 3" and it is a noisy movie. Big Grin
Oh interesting...tarot cards, I hadn't thought of that. And the glassware that was dirty and distracting, maybe a King of Cups? Communication and understanding? For some reason the 3 multiples keep resurfacing in my mind as well. Three of Cups? Community, sharing? And maybe Queen of Wands with the scepter... Now my mind is going!! So many possibilities!

Taken 3 - I don't do horror, THAT will give dreams I'm not interested in having lol!!
In my case, whenever I see multiples of three, I know it's a "pay attention" moment. The things my guides have to do to get my attention. LOL
