I had two very vivid dreams last night into this morning and they are both still very fresh in my mind and puzzling me so I will record what I can recall of them here. Offer your interpretation, even if you are wrong, offer anyways.
The first dream:
In the first dream I was out in my back yard at a small patch of garden. I dug through the garden making the soil suitable and freshly finely chopped. There were the beginning of two plants which I did not recognize planted in the garden. The first was green and pleasant, the other was fully grown but was mostly dead. I cut off the dead parts and threw them away leaving the stump of the plant to grow back. Then I said to myself I will make helpers to help keep the soil tilled and fresh and to help grow the plants in the garden.
I spit on the ground and out of my spit came four ants. I said these ants will help keep the soil fresh, but the ants began to fight each other and strive together and I was displeased with them. The first ant was on its back fighting the second ant, the second ant strove on top of the first ant and was prevailing over him and the third ant entered the fray prevailing over both the first two and they fought in a confused circle as ants do. The forth ant was biggest of all and prevailing on top of the churning mess of the three ants. The ants fought all across the garden until they came to the edge of it and they were caught up into a pine tree and were gone.
I was angry for some reason that the ants fought and were gone and I began cutting down the pine trees which girded and hedged in the edge of the garden in haste and fury and I destroyed the garden and plowed into furrows the garden and the edge of it where the pine trees that I cut down once stood. Then I woke up.
The second dream:
I sat for a moment awake and saw it was morning outside. I was going to get up, but I sat pondering the first dream and I must have fallen back asleep. There were seemingly two parts of this dream.
The first part of the second dream was brief. I was again out in my back yard and there was a group of people out in the back. Amidst them was a woman talking about a dream she had. She said in the dream she had plowed this very same land and she was greatly troubled by this fact and she asked for someone to tell her the meaning of this. Everyone else seemed bemused and mocked the woman or else felt ashamed and could not and would not try to answer her. I felt uneasy for I had just had the first dream of plowing the yard myself, and I felt ashamed of the crowd and said I would try a guess. I asked her if she could recall how many furrows there was thinking perhaps each furrow to signify a year of famine. She shook her head and said no, that was not the meaning of her dream.
As I stood pondering what could be the meaning of her dream the dreamscape shifted slightly to the second part. I was still in my backyard but all those people were gone and a new group of people were there. There was a beautiful young woman with long flowing and curly red hair and she was urging me to plow the land exactly as I had in the first dream. She was telling me and also showing me in visions of all the good plants she intended to plant. She was very pleasant and beautiful and laughing the whole time. She was almost elfish in demeanor and if I had to hazard a guess she looked fairly young, like early twenties. After showing me these visions she asked me if I was ready to plant this new garden with her. I told her it is still early March, we cannot do that or else everything will die if the frost comes. She and the rest of the crowd laughed at me and beckoned me to at least plow two furrows in my own yard and not to yet cut down the hedge of pine trees and plant anyways and see what grows in time, which I did.
As soon as I did this most the other crowd left except for the beautiful redheaded woman. She began somewhat flirting with me and asking me questions. She was asking me basic questions like my name and where I lived. I pointed back at my house and said I live here obviously. Cartoonishly when we both looked back at my house a window shut almost as if in rejection. This made the young woman laugh and she continued to talk to me flirtingly and with good compliments. I asked her where she lived and she told me to come with her. So I held her hand and followed her through the neighborhood. There was snow on the ground even though the day and air felt very warm and I was barefoot, but the snow felt pleasant under my feet as we walked together. She was telling me sweet things about myself and complimenting me and flirting with me in ways which I have never heard before. Finally we came to a bridge on a wide river. First the bridge was rickety, unrailed, and narrow but we crossed over the narrow part with ease. Then the bridge was wide but it had tiles on it. She said to walk carefully as the tiles were shaky and if people walk on them wrongly they will fall into the river. She crossed the tiles by one path and not a tile moved but I just ran down the middle in my bare feet, some wobbling underneath me making me nervous, but we both made it across without incident.
We then came to her house. Before entering I remember sheepishly telling her it was my birthday (which in the real world was yesterday). She laughed and said her birthday was the New Year to which I playfully said New Year's babies were trouble, and she laughingly agreed and led me inside. Inside it was like a big pleasant rec room connected by stairs to other houses or places. There were many children inside playing and laughing and eating. The beautiful redheaded woman began helping a child with a broken toy nerf gun. All the children seemed to like her like she was a sort of nanny or big sister or mother figure to them. Then a person I went to highschool with appeared but he did not recognize me. He was happy to see me though and asking how I came here and I told him about the beautiful redheaded girl and pointed her out and she smiled and nodded and laughed. Then he told me he didn't mind if I kissed her which made me embarrassed. The woman thought this was cute and left up one of the stairs promising to come back.
Immediately the crowd began feasting and brought forth a very fat and ugly dog. They called the ugly dog Community Itch, which I found funny. Out of the dog called Community Itch spawned another smaller but even uglier dog. The children wanted to take the dogs outside, but the people that looked my age said not to take Community Itch or else he would get sick. The children put a leash on the smaller but uglier dog to lead him away outside bringing him past me and I got a good look at him. I despise the look of the smaller dog for how wretched it looked but trying to be a good guest I stretched forth my hand to pet it but it was fearful of me and backed away and was led up some stairs and was gone. I then turned to the original ugly dog called Community Itch and patted it on the head which it seemed to appreciate.
Then I saw another acquaintance from highschool enter the scene from one of the stairs. I was happy to see him and jumped to him and shook his hand. He actually recognized me and just as he was saying my name and we greeted each other immediately the dream ended. As I woke up I remembered both the first dream and the second dream.
Waking moments immediately after the second dream:
The second dream seemed very pleasant to me, and I enjoyed it a lot and wanted to go back to sleep to it to know more about the beautiful girl and the idyllic community she was living in, but I could not. It was one of the most pleasant feeling dreams I have had in a long time. As I thought on it going back to the first part I remembered the first dream as well and I thought I understood it finally, but perhaps I am wrong and I am curious what others may think about it. I then did my morning routine, got some water and posted both here. Offer any insight or interpretation to one or both of the dreams as you see fit.
