Okay, it's been a long time since these occurrences, here is the best rendition I can provide. I will apologize in advance for jumping around, I know that I will. This may get a little choppy, it's been a decade and there is a lot of information regarding these dreams. I alone am here to tell the story, I wish I could have the other 3 with me now, we could go back down memory lane and this may be a little more coherent.
After we were blinded we went back to my house. It was a Friday and we already had plans for the weekend. We picked up Richard on the way home. He actually has an account on CC he is Tituswithin, though I don't think he has been on for a long time.
At the time I still lived at my parents house, we lived on 10 acres in Cedar Creek, Texas. If anyone looks at a map it is just south and a little east of Austin. My little brother was about 12 and our little sister was 7 if I'm doing my math correctly. His name is Patrick and her name is Casey. Now Casey was too young to be included in these conversations. So if you can imagine it, it's me, Luis, Richard and Patrick. Of course we are talking very excitedly about the whole thing. (I can already tell I am going to use "at the time" far too often.
we didn't realize just how relevant this bit of information was at the time, but during this time period there was an infestation of snakes in our area. We had moved to that property within a couple of months of Casey's birth and we remained in that area for at least an additional 5 years. So during the 12 years we stayed there I had never seen more snakes than at this time period. An example would be, if I left my driveway and turned right on our gravel road and turned right onto Watts lane, then right again onto hwy 21 to the cedar creek store "roughly 3 miles" during this time period (maybe a month) we may see 7-10 snakes each way, no joke. Never seen anything like it, however I didn't realize the significance until after these events. Moving on.
On the way to the airport to pick up my father there had been a large black snake. Now when I first moved to Texas 20 years ago I bought a snake encyclopedia, I love animals, in fact when we moved onto the property I not only bought a bird encyclopedia but I would go out every day and document every bird I saw. Very into nature. My point is That after we turned right onto Watts lane from Mesquite drive heading toward hwy 21 there is a small bridge just before the hwy. As we pulled up there was a large black snake. I pulled up and stopped and got out of the car. I didn't know what kind of snake it was but I knew it wasn't poisonous. There are only 3 venomous snakes in texas that don't have rattles. Coral snake, copperhead and water moccasin aka cotton mouth. This was obviously none of the 3. it was too big to be a water moccasin.
I caught snakes all the time and I would always use a stick or something, pin down the head and grab it on the back of the skull, but this time (I'll never know why) I tried to do it like Steve Erwin. I grabbed its tail and it struck at me. I dropped its tail and jumped back, amazed at the cotton white mouth it brandished at me. How could this be a water moccasin? I had lived here at the time for 7 years and we have a pond in our back yard, cotton mouths were common place. This large snake then attempted to slither off the road and into the neighboring yard, when I say attempted to slither it got where it was going but it just flopped sporadically sideways I liken it to a man in a sleeping bag trying to wiggle quickly across the road, it looked like something that had never slithered a day in its life. So Lou and I carried on and went to the airport from there.
I needed to reiterate that since we are going forward, because venomous snakes are going to be common place in this story. This is day one, that was venomous snake one.
Moving back to after the homeless man, at home with now Richard, Lou and my little brother and talking about what this means.
It's important you understand that each night all of us either had a dream or were in a dream and if we were in someone elses dream we didn't dream, nobody was ever missing and nobody ever overlapped. I personally believe our spirits were involved.
That night we went to sleep and that's when the visions/dreams began.
I had a dream, I was standing in front of 3 different jewelers. They each had a different glass case with jewelery, all of it was gold. The prices were high but I noticed that all of the prices consisted of threes sixes and nines. so whether it was 6399 or 669.93 They had this in common. At first I thought that one or two of them were trying to scam me but I quickly realized that all three were not to be trusted. I bought nothing. End of dream.
I had another dream that night. I was wearing a white robe and I was at a facility, everyone was wearing the same thing. I was there with my girlfriend and countless other people. I began handing out numbers (like when you are waiting in line) When I got to me and April (GF) I handed her a 3 and myself a 3 ( the only time a number repeated) and then I handed a man a 15 and it struck my mind very solidly "THREE COMES BEFORE THE 15!" after that I had forgotten something at the car, I don't know what. I went outside and when I came back in our number had already been called. April had already gone in. I went and I sat down in a chair that faced other chairs. I could see the door she had gone in and I waited.
April is about 4'11 and blonde. Very vivacious. However the woman who came out was tall, very pale with black hair. She looked like she was in a zombie state and she was wearing all black. A man sitting near me said something about a friend and then he turned on a fan that sat on the table facing me. When he turned it on the force was very great and my chair landed on its back with me in it and an immense force remained on my chest. End of dream.
What I didn't know at the time and only living my life had shown me the truth. I had never seen that woman before. But years later I had a child with a woman, she was my friends older sister, and one day when my child was only a month old she drove drunk and rolled her SUV. My child's chest strap wasn't buckled and he flew out. During the time she had become pregnant she was on many hard drugs and her brain really did get damaged and I'm sure losing the baby didn't help. I'm sure the dream is fairly straight forward for all who read it. She is tall with black hair.
BUT I didn't know that at the time so moving on.
I don't remember the dream that Lou or Richard had, I'm fairly certain it was Lou's dream though and Richard was in it. Don't recall at the moment, I will ask them and see if anyone remembers. I do however remember Patrick's dream.
In fact it was his dream that that started our morning off. This is his dream. He was at a carnival and there were lots of people. It was night time and then satan was there. I don't recall what he looked like but he looked like a man. He threw a knife into my brothers chest my little brother tried to scream "Jesus help me" but the words wouldn't come out. He finally whispered the words and an old truck pulled up a man who looked like a friend of the families got out came over, removed the knife and healed his wound. End of dream. The interesting part was when he told the story first thing in the morning he looked down while pointing to where the knife had been and there on his chest was a perfectly straight and even red line about an inch across.
It's now Saturday and Lou was alone on my back porch probably around 4pm and he came inside yelling about a copperhead. I doubted that very much. We had mostly prairie land and mesquite trees on my property. I did have a pond so the only venomous snakes I've EVER seen on that property were rattlesnakes and water moccasins. The copperheads are generally found near large oaks where the dried leaves litter the ground and they have camouflage. I went outside and though he swore up and down it was there next to my AC blower it wasn't there when I went outside. He was absolutely certain it was a copperhead.
I was speaking to my girlfriend on the phone (she lived in Houston at the time) and she mentioned she was looking for a cross necklace. She wanted a silver one, nothing fancy but something somewhat sturdy, nothing dainty. When I hung up I told Richard what we had talked about. His eyes lit up and he held up a finger like (whoa, hold on) he went to his backpack and said, you won't believe this, but years ago when I was skipping school in the woods I found this necklace in this box. I put it in my backpack and never used this backpack again. He pulled out the box and there inside was exactly the necklace she described. Later on when she actually received the necklace she confirmed it was EXACTLY what she had been looking for.
That night the dreams continued. I had a dream that I was standing in a large field. It was completely encased in a 12 foot privacy fence. If I had to guess I would say the field was maybe 3 acres. In the middle of the field was an ENORMOUS black snake. This thing had a head the size of a volvo (not kidding) the snake was laying there not moving its body in a few S curves. GIGANTIC snake. On the other side of the field in the back right corner was Lou and Patrick. The snake looked dead but something told me it was alive. I was not scared AT ALL. I started walking towards it and then it began to slowly slither toward me. I backed up into the corner and it continued coming. Lou threw me a trident with 3 points it landed in the ground near me. I pulled it from the earth and when the snake came close enough I stabbed it in the head 3 times. End of dream.
Next dream. I was walking down a very narrow path littered with poison IVY everywhere. (I am hypo allergic) it wasn't only on the ground, it was seeping in like walls from the trees. I was walking at first and then knowing I couldn't avoid it I began running. When I finally got out Lou and Patrick were there and they threw me a canister that somehow was going to cure me. End of dream.
Richard sadly was alone this night. To this day I believe satan did that on purpose. He wanted Richard. This is his dream.
Richard was on a school bus. There was a black man driving it wearing a black suit and they were driving through a very dry desert. The man pointed off across the sands to a hilltop it reminded richard of the sign that reads HOLLYWOOD but it had 7 letters. Richard couldn't make it out due to the heat waves. The man said "that is me, and this is mine." I believe the word read LUCIFER. They pulled up to a silver travel trailer and when the door opened there was a man who resembled Lou but it wasn't Lou. he was wearing bright orange and even his skin had an orangish tint. he had no eye lashes and no eyebrows, he had no hair on his arms. In front of the bus ran a bunch of women scantily dressed. Richard exited the bus. He goes inside with the man in orange. Richard knows in the dream that he has forgotten his whipped cream. The man in orange offers him his. Richard is about to take it, but something about the mans demeanor is too needy. Like he NEEDS Richard to take it. That warns Richard away. The man presses the issue and Richard punches the man in the face. The man first looks furious but quickly changes to a pitiful look. Richard flips out his middle finger and imitating wiping a tear from his face says "cry me a river." End of dream.
It is now Sunday. We have to wait until 12 to buy beer. At around 12:30 we drive into the city of Bastrop and go into HEB. We are standing in the beer isle I am further down and Lou and Richard are near the entrance. Two attractive girls approach them. "are ya'll single?" they asked. My friends confirmed that they were. Then the girls attention switched to me "how about you? are you single?" I smiled politely and told them I was taken. They swapped numbers and we drove back to Cedar Creek. On the way back before we even left Bastrop they were already communicating. "they want to know if they can come over and go swimming." I said I didn't have a problem with it but it had to be after my family went to sleep. "they want directions." I said "not yet, if you give them directions they will come to soon." "they promise they wont" my friends gave them directions. I kid you not. Before 3 pm those girls were at my house. My parents thought they were Luis and Richards girlfriends and they welcomed them with open arms. As we sat around a table for dinner I was seething mad. My family went to bed around 10ish. My little sister slept in my parents room to give more room for us. I was standing in Patricks room talking to April and Lou and one girl were in my room and Richard and the other girl were in my little sisters room.
(this is the dulling down. Those who have ears)
Lou came in to my little brothers room and interrupted my phone call. He said "Jeff I was all about to do this but it was like SHE NEEDED ME TOO, it scared me off" (remember Richards dream?) he said "you better go check on your boy.
I went in to Caseys room and there on the floor in the middle of the room they were. I stopped them (those who have ears) I told them it was time to go. One girl wanted to leave her friend (the one with Richard) I refused and said they needed to leave immediately. I went in to my room and called April back. About a minute later Richard came running in "SNAKE SNAKE SNAKE!" he put his foot on a shelf of my entertainment center and frantically lifted his pant leg. There was nothing. Apparently when he stepped off the stairs to walk them to the car a snake on his right side struck at his left leg but since he was walking his right leg struck the snake in mid stride and it flung harmlessly into the grass.
It wasn't until after they left that we realized what they had been wearing. Both wore black jeans. One wore a black shirt and the other wore a bright orange shirt. No joke.
Lou had enough. He called his brother and asked for a ride home. After his brother picked him up Richard, me and my brother Patrick stayed awake long into the night. Talking over the last few days and absolutely shaken at the implications. God is real. Satan is real. Not only that they have taken a direct interest into our lives. I said, "you know there is only one thing I don't understand." "whats that?" "I never figured out what 3 before the 15 was. I looked at the digital clock. It was exactly 3:15am. I felt sick, I went to the bathroom I splashed my face. Richard and Patrick followed me "whats wrong?" "look at the clock" they looked and turned white as sheets. Tears ran down everyones faces. Patrick asked "Jeff, will you sleep in my room tonight?" "sure" Richard slept on Patricks bed. I slept next to the bed on the floor and Patrick slept next to me on the opposite side. The lights were off. I couldn't sleep. I tried and there was one moment I feel like I kind of drifted off but I was immediately back awake again.
The sky began turning gray with the coming sunrise. I looked at Patrick and he was awake. I whispered "I've been awake all night, I thought you were asleep." Patrick said "me to" Richard said "me to" lol we all lay there for hours awake thinking the others were asleep. We were all too freaked out. Shortly after that came a little knock at the door.
It was little Casey. She said "Jeff, I had a strange dream. I dreamt that I came walking down this hall and Richard was sleeping where he is, you were sleeping where you are and Patrick was sleeping where he is, then I went to my room but in the middle of the floor were two snakes, they slithered in circles like eye balls. One was orange the other was black and a voice said "go get Jeff" so I came in here to wake you up and you got up but you were too tired you lay back down and went to sleep, so I went and got mom but when we came back they were gone."
if you haven't deduced it yet I believe that was that one moment I barely drifted off, you see as long as I was awake I wasn't available for the spirit realm. So when she woke me up actually was that moment I went to sleep and the moment I went to sleep in her dream was the moment I actually woke up. Keep in mind Casey is 7. She didn't know anything about any of this and she went to sleep by 10 how on earth did she know that Richard would be laying in Patricks bed, me on the floor and Patrick next to me, we didn't lay down til after 3:15am.
anyway, thats the story. Thanks for reading.
Oh yeah, remember all those snakes? the infestation for a month or so before this? during those 3 days we only saw one snake a day. One before noon, one after noon and one at night, each were venomous. After that I didn't see another snake for months.
thanks again.
