We were indoors exploring these shifting environments, my
friend/lover Sarah Michelle Gellar and I.
As we explored the environments would change; from the familiar, my
current apartment, to the foreign or strange; a hotel, then a flophouse, and
finally another apartment, though that one resembled the assisted living
communities I worked in. Although the
environments shifted there was continuity; everything was dimly lit, dingy, and
there were red & black pentagrams and blood all over the floors and the
walls, everywhere. Naked and covered in
blood, Sarah Michelle Gellar was also a witch and she remained close to me as
we explored, it was very intimate. For a
while, we were exploring these rooms and compartments alone, but then people started
appearing. They didn’t enter the rooms
through doors or anything like that, they more just manifested in space. It didn’t feel strange though, it felt
natural the way they just appeared.
After appearing, people would start using heroin and having sex. Sarah Michelle Gellar didn’t want to use
heroin, but in the end she did and afterwards it was fine. There was no real narrative, just a shifting
of environments and emotions; lust, longing, horror; and anxiety over the drug
use. I remember waking up puzzled and
amused.
Lust and longing are driving forces in this dream. Blood is symbolic of the soul and
passion. Specifically the eroticism of
blood symbolizes passion for living.
Pentagrams are associated with the power of thought, creation,
imagination, the unconscious, and untapped potential. The color red that
appears in both the blood and the pentagrams is related to energy and
lust. The naked female form (Ms. Gellar) relates to
sexuality as well as individuality and a longing for connectedness and
nurturance. With Sarah Michelle Gellar
cast as a witch, she may be offering advice.
Drug use is associated with escapism and relinquishment of personal
will, however, it is also a message to be more awake, more clear, and more
focused. Is there something that Sarah
Michelle Gellar could be trying to tell you to be more awake, clear, and
focused about in order to increase your feeling of connection? Perhaps changing focus, ways of thinking, or
employing some creativity will help you utilize untapped potential.
