4/29/14 Iron Down…a quick update

bridge collapse

Hopefully, everyone remembers the dream-linguistic prediction of “Iron Down.” If you haven’t read the Blood Moon Dreams report, I recommend you taking a quick glance at that first.

Last week, our first dream linguistics report identified the phrase “Iron Down,” and we hypothesized what that could mean in terms of future events. Here’s the strangest thing: it seems like … Read more

This week in closing: The rise of positivity, the undeniable synchronicities, and more new-ness coming your way

But not everyone was affected negatively. Yesterday, a staff member divulged some of her semi-confidential spiritual session that took place early in the morning of the 22nd, just hours after … Read more

Another dream come true!

Let’s start with an excerpt from our latest blood-moon predictions:

If “one look” can be broadened to heavenly phenomenon, then perhaps the ‘asteroids over Austin’ dream might be a player.” Recall that “one look” included the two top indicators in our archaic linguistic model. We hypothesized that one look was at a minimum, some sort of space phenomenon. Perhaps erroneously limiting “one look” to just the eclipse / blood moon, it turns out that the aforementioned dream DID, in fact, manifest in our 3D reality.

Now, let’s take a quick gander at the aforementioned dream account brought to us by dreamer “Zellie”:

Do Psychic Phenomena Exist?

Do Psychic Phenomena Exist?

Why My Mind Is Open to Telepathy and Pre-Cognition

People – particularly other psychologists and academics – are often surprised when I tell them that I’m willing to accept the possibility of psychic phenomena such as telepathy and pre-cognition. For many intellectuals, these things are seen as superstitious nonsense, remnants of an irrational view of the world which has been superseded by modern materialistic science. Here I will explain my reasons for believing that some ‘paranormal’ phenomena are genuine. I’m going to discuss two phenomena in particular, telepathy and pre-cognition, since these are the ones I feel there is most evidence for, and the ones I have experienced myself. (There are other types of psychic phenomena – such as mediumship, ghosts or faith healing – which I’m more doubtful about, and therefore won’t be discussing.)

Your Dreams Predicted the Future, So What Now?

by Chris McCleary

Yesterday’s linguistic report set the tone for a promising new way to working with dreams. The linguistic indicators seemed to translate last week’s dream content into a valid and extraordinary explanation of our physical and non-physical environments that we are now muddling through collectively.

 

What’s even more extraordinary, at least to me, is that I used only a single, archaic means of analyzing the words, but the results were very profound. In dreamwork, there are so many ways of analyzing and interpreting dreams, that it boggles the mind. However, our successful report only used one of those methods. What this signals to me is that we are on the right track, and that by expanding the process to include more methods, the fullness and clarity should also dramatically improve.

So with that, I’d like to describe where we’re going with respect to collective dream analysis and what everyone can expect going forward.

First, you can expect free reports and predictions well into the foreseeable future. How often will these reports be?

I don’t know yet, because right now our DreamBase is growing. Certainly, if we hit dry spells or longer periods without dreams, then no report will be needed. However, if we see a sudden onslaught of dreams in one or two days, perhaps I’ll consider doing a separate investigation of just those dreams.

Over on the right of your screen, you should see a new link called “Reports and Predictions.” I’ll post our routine and special reports there (initially sending them to the main blog here). The purpose of that page is to provide quick access to these “more important posts.” The way this blog template is set up, it is somewhat difficult to find older posts, so my workaround is that page with a running list of reports.

What you can expect from a report

First and foremost, we want an overall flavor for what our dreams are saying. Of course, our staff members who look at these dreams will be inundated with our own biases and projections, but we’ll attempt to be open and transparent with that.

We’ll be working from big to small. The actual title of the dream is one of the most important factors. If needed, we’ll attach new titles to better describe the overall tone. Also important are emotions and inner feeling states of the dreamer. Many people leave this info out of their dream accounts, but it is vital that emotions and feelings are documented.

Of course, we have the linguistic profile of all the collective dreams together, and this process will undoubtedly evolve over time.

Lastly, in my experience, many parts of precognitive dreams happen very closely to waking reality. Therefore, we’ll consider certain dream events as pure, unadulterated precognitive events and perhaps even establish probability matrices for certain direct events. However, most of the time, precognition plays out metaphorically, so we’ll look at names, numbers, and objects trolling around for applicable metaphors. We’ll introduce that into the probability matrix.

All this will likely evolve as we conduct this iterative approach to dreamwork. We’ll be looking backward on our predictions to see how we could have made it better in the future. A lot of this is sounds artsy, but believe me there’s a science to it also.

Regular dreams vs Project August dreams

Anytime we place a pre-dream intention (or what’s called “incubate a dream”), we do need to honor that intention along with the actual dream (I mean that in order to properly work with that dream, it helps to know whether the person intended to dream something in particular). In Project August, dreamers must intend to dream about big, news-worthy events that are going to happen in August 2014. Because of that intention, I don’t want to cross-pollinate the ‘regular dreams’ with those of Project August.

In general, whenever you see a report out here on the blog (or on the reports page to the right), then that will only deal with regular, everyday dreams. The Project August reports will cover only P.A. dreams, and those reports will be housed at the main website (with passwords to keep non-P.A. dreamers from accessing them)

By the way, if you haven’t submitted a Project August dream yet, realize that you will not receive access to the reports and predictions profiles on May 4th. No registration is required, but registration does have a big advantage…you’ll get the final prediction report before August, instead of after August like all the non-registrants. Did I mention that everything about Project August is F-R-E-E, including registration?

Conclusion

We need your dreams, both regular everyday dreams, and definitely the Project August dreams. We need your dreams!

Time traveling car

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The following dream is much more than just any ordinary blood moon dream. You see, the National Dream Center has, among all the other things going on here, established a new project that has yet to be announced. (The project was actually conceived this weekend, when all these crazy dreams were being input into the database). My goal is to make this announcement tomorrow or Thursday, as long as I can get all the prerequisites finished before then. Yes, this sounds like hype, but I’m telling you that this will be an exciting addition to our work here.

So this dream below has many of the synchronicities that confirm we’re on the right track. So please continue to check back here at the DreamBlog or at our main page, and we should have everything squared away in a couple of days. Announcement forthcoming…

In the meantime, here’s a wonderfully written account of someone else’s fantastic blood moon dream. The dreamer provided it to us clearly because there are more of the elements from our dream analysis packed inside this dream. Right off the bat, we have the word “car” which I pretty much breezed by in our original analysis. Also, there’s a definite sense of new destiny and not turning back.

But even more than that, the dreams signals to our staff that it’s time to get a move-on with this new project. While you’re waiting for the announcement, check out the dream below…

_____________________________________________

The “Time Traveling Car”

My dream happened about a week ago, around the time of the eclipse, which I observed here in cental California.  I was happily at college in my dream getting ready to take final exams and graduate.  The newbies were scheduled to arrive and the old dorm where I lived had to be vacated. The dorm was not at all like the dorm I actually had at college; it was a wood paneled place with high  ceilings and ceramic mask like decorations, some missing, some broken.  I said thanks, and that you really helped me to a good friend(an actual friend from high school, Jan) and said my farewells.  I recognized one of the newbies as someone who I knew in my childhood, Barbara.  She was actually older than me, but was now younger.  She was very tiny and cute, surrounded by admiring guys.  (as a side note, she has become significant in the last day as I sort through some family history)  I realize that I would love to stay here and study for my degree again, but of course, I can’t. I load up my car to leave, but have forgotten my purse, run back in to get it and say one last goodbye to the dusty, timeworn dorm. As I go to my car a fellow student(totally anonymous, not someone I remember), a guy I know is standing there by my car. I say you can come with me if you want, but I understand if you don’t.  It’s not like he’s a boyfriend, just an acquaintance, but it’s an intense moment in the dream.  He says he’ll come  and I’m delighted. We get in the car and he drives.  It’s like we’re driving at night in a dust storm:  I can’t see anything.  I realize I left my iD behind, but I think, well, I can’t go back and it won’t work where I’m going anyway.  We finally get to our destination in the morning, and pull into the empty gravel parking lot, and go inside.  No one else is there. It is like the old dorm, but brand new.  The walls are beautiful burnished wood and the ceramic masks are new and perfectly in place.  We go into the large living area with big windows overlooking a natural scene.  My companion sits down at the baby grand piano and begins to play.  I say I love you to him and wander off to look at the masks in the hallways with the music floating around.

Anonymous asked:

I don’t know if this will help you but there may be a clue in it. I am 58 and have always dreamed every night and remember parts of my dreams. The last two nights I have had a completely unique experience that I will label, “Nested Dreaming”. I have no details but I do know that while dreaming I observed myself get in bed and go to sleep and then saw myself asleep and dreaming something else. Then my observed dreaming self wakes and then I wake to realize I was having a dream within a dream.

ANSWER:

Ah, nested dreaming! This is actually fairly common…I would surmise that it’s on par with precognitive dreaming, numbers-wise. Take my own life for example: I’ve had 2 nested dreams, 2 precognitive dreams, and 2 telepathic dreams (that I remember). (I’ll leave my wife’s numbers out of this discussion, because they are just too far out from the norm!)

From my experience nested dreams are fascinating the first time they happen. Then any subsequent ones are just downright disorienting! 🙂

But to answer your first sentence, “there may be a clue in it,” your dream experience here, to me, highlights what we found in the collective dream analysis. Specifically, the push-pull of the upcoming cross formation. On the one hand, you’re tired and need to sleep/dream, but on the other hand, your body wants to wake up. It can’t decide to be asleep or be awake. This is precisely the type of stuff I’d expect from the contradictory energies affecting us.

Fortunately, the solution is simple: just be aware of it. As you go through the next few days, spend extra time feeling the two different sides. Notice the result in the center; it might feel like anxiousness or angst. Mentally, you try to coax yourself to do something, but your body doesn’t seem to be responding. OR it could be the opposite…body is busy, while mind is saying, “I should be lying down right now.” The solution is just to be aware of it…and be good with what you find. That’s the hardest part!

Happy Dreaming…double dreaming, that is!

Iron Down…Is THIS what our dreams predicted?

This article just came out today, and I see it as perhaps a mixed blessing, if you will. To me, the collective dream prediction felt much more significant, with bigger implications. Of course, if iron ore goes down, there’s a reasonable chance that ALL metals are also headed downward. Nonetheless, this article does show, I think, that we are on the right path here with our linguistic interpretations.

Reuters article follows…

COLUMN-Everybody but the curve thinks iron ore is going down: Clyde Russell

Tue Apr 22, 2014 1:15am EDT

(The opinions expressed here are those of the author, a columnist for Reuters.)

By Clyde Russell

(Reuters) – It’s hard to find any bullish predictions for iron ore prices, with the consensus being that it will drop to below $100 a tonne. Except this isn’t reflected in the financial markets.

The latest bearish signal for iron ore is the decision by an Indian court to allow the mining of 20 million tonnes per annum in the state of Goa, most of which will end up on the export markets.

While this isn’t enough ore to cause prices to slump, it adds to the overall growth in supply, which is widely expected to overwhelm growth in demand, especially as top buyer China’s economy loses some momentum.
