The dream this morning begins in a private residence inside a restaurant. The restaurant is owned by my father's sister, my aunt Bonnie. Strangely, she is speaking with a thick French accent. Apparently, in the dream, my aunt has been living in France for the last 10 years and it has transformed the manner in which she speaks. Ordinarily she talks with the Texan tinged accent of her youth.
My aunty is telling me a movie crew is eating lunch in her establishment and they have chartered a bus to take them all to go shopping in Chicago. My Aunt, in real life, lives in Michigan City, Indiana, which coincidently, is very near Chicago. Aunt Bonnie, in the dream, suggests I go with them on the trip as it would be fun. I think to myself, "why not?" So I speak to three people from the film crew eating at a table. Two of these people are young attractive blond actresses and the third is black man on the crew. They invite me to ride with them.
We are riding along the freeway, on the outskirts of Chicago, when we pass by a large airport. The airport is full of tens of thousands of British troops. They are standing in formations each waiting their turn to load onto planes. High in the sky above I see two strange UFO's. The objects are moving across the sky like snakes. The have 7 or 8 square parts. The things make no sense and seem bizarrely out of place. I have no idea what they are. My mind asks if they are some kind of glider trying to gain attitude hence the snake like manoeuvres. All I know is I have never seen anything like them. This is when I wake up.
What to make of this dream? My wife is a francophone and her accent often echoes in my mind and consciousness. I have never dreamed about my aunt Bonnie before. Chicago is on my mind. I am planning a trip there next month. I had, in fact, stayed at her house with my dad about a year ago to pick up some important papers from the Spanish Consulate in Chicago prior to my last trip to Madrid. I should contact my aunt about staying with her again. The dream could be a reminder to do so. The dream could be suggesting it would be advantageous.
My aunt does not have a restaurant but she is a great cook. Her home cooking is better than most restaurants. The movie crew is a curious addition. I was watching videos about celebrities before I slept so that may have played a role in the content of this dream. However, the British troops seem totally left field and unrelated to anything intruding into my unconscious, something about this aspect, and the UFO's, unnerves me.
The movie aspect of the dream suggests seeing the fantasy from behind the scenes. I know it is an imaginary creation that suspends belief and entertains. That is the purpose of a movie. My meeting with the actors and a crew member focuses on the reality behind the fantasy. I am looking for truth.
Why British troops and not American? There have not been this many British troops on American soil since the American Revolution. The imagery is provocative and is not lost on me. What do I make of all this?
The unconscious seems to be saying to pay attention and plan for this month. I need to pay particular attention to my intentions in regards to this up coming trip to Chicago. Something important may be revealed or happen.
The British army is huge and suggests an overwhelming force that I might have to contend with. I am an ex-soldier and can relate to all things military. The relationship of the airport suggests travel and some new experience are awaiting. I might have to fight for the things I believe.
The UFO's suggests that I am feeling alien to people around me and that I am desiring to find some higher spiritual purpose in this life. Am I a "space" case? This crazy dream might be suggesting it.
Something strange is going to happen this month and I am going to be doing battle with it internally and externally. I feel it in my bones. What it is and what it will be is still a mystery. It will dawn on me well after it happens and I will say to myself, "Oh! That's what that was all about!" That is how it often goes.
