The Past
This dream was strange. It was the middle of the night and very dark out. Dawn must have been approaching because the sky was a pretty blue color. There wasn't a cloud in the sky either. I was in some pretty place near the water and a little wooded area. There was a huge lake surrounded by trees; weeping willows, or something similar. Also, there was a building next to me, which I think was made of stone. (It was too dark in my dream to know for sure and I only saw part of it). I think it was a small church because it had skinny stained glassed windows with pretty colors.
I was speaking to some man. I think he had short black hair. It was a quiet night, but I knew fighting... swords for sure, and maybe cannon fire. Not sure about the cannons... was going on, or about to go on from the other side of the lake. It was like the calm before the storm, and this man and I were speaking very low. We were either just acquaintances, or had just met.
When I woke up early this morning, the name "Branberry" was instantly in my head. I'm not sure that's how it's spelled, but it's how it sounded.

Owls and Snow
Had an awesome dream last night. It was night-time, and I was standing in the backyard. There was some snow on the ground, but not much. Still, I was amazed that the snow that was left didn't look like it would melt anytime soon.
In the yard I saw a very low lying bush of some sort... it was more like underbrush.... and bursting out of it in flight were 2 or 3 owls. These owls actually GLOWED a beautiful GOLD. They were just too surreal and beautiful.
Side Note: I don't know if it's related, but the 2 acres we bought recently is in "Owl Creek." I don't know if this dream has anything to do with that, or if it's something else. (A dream dictionary would say owls in a dream would represent wisdom, etc).
If anything, it was an awesome dream!
-------------------------------------
Two Moons
Had a dream the other day where I was floating in the middle of the ocean. Some of my family was with me, and it was a beautiful afternoon. I looked up at the blue sky and noticed two moons. The one on the right was a little higher than the one on the left. I was amazed and quite perplexed about this. Lol! I tried telling my mother to look up, when the next time I looked up I didn't see the two moons any longer. Instead, I saw one moon and THE EARTH.
-------------------------------------
I'm really not so sure this was Patrick coming to me in a dream. I really don't know. I don't want to babble, so the jest of the dream is being in a skating rink, and on my way out some people are trying to tell me something.
I turn around to see for myself... a penny is floating on it's own right behind me and towards my back. In the dream it immediately made me think of the scene with a penny in the movie "Ghost," and I knew it had to be Patrick paying me a visit. I paid special attention to the numbers on the penny, hoping I'd see the #'s 1 and 2 (soulmate numbers) as confirmation, but instead I saw 1's and 3's.
So yeah... it might just be a nothing dream. As always, I'm left guessing.
Update:
It just now dawned on me that in the movie Ghost, PATRICK Swayze plays the ghost.
-------------------------------------
Not much of a dream...
The only dream I've really had lately is seeing a closeup of a brownish vine with a single rose blooming on it. It was a pretty pink rose.
-------------------------------------
UFO's and a ghost?
I had these two dreams last week, which I believe were on the same night.
First dream: I was walking upstairs at night in the gallery area when outside I noticed this large flying disc. It was flying around the house. Outside the windows I could see that the skies were all red, from the glowing lights on the ufo. I automatically knew that they were everywhere. Not just in this neighborhood, but everywhere on the entire planet.
Next thing I know, I'm inside this ufo with my mother and some people I don't know. Everyone was extremely weary of these 'aliens,' yet - as in all my space dreams - the aliens looked just like us. (They might have just appeared like us in order to not freak us out). I understood that they were just trying to understand us. I remember this one guy (alien) sitting behind a white desk of sorts, taking notes as he asks us questions. (The desk was just this 3-sided piece with just the top slab and then the two sides. Just 3 boring white 'blocks/slabs' if that makes sense). Everyone was nervous and tense, but wouldn't let it show because we all knew nothing about their ways of thinking and how they viewed us.
The only other thing I recall from this dream is them telling my mother that she was highly intuitive.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Second Dream: Don't know what to make of this one. Could it be past life related?
No clue.
All I remember from this one is being on some flat land. At least I think it was flat. It was lots of land with no structures around. Just sparse trees. Small trees just starting to grow. It was very FOGGY, and I think it was early in the morning. I was speaking to this man, only he was.... well, he was dead. Lol! He was a spirit passed on that only I could see and hear. He wore the same thing that myself and others were wearing: some kind of robe with chocolate brown and blue vertical stripes. It was some kind of soft, cottony material. Fleece or something.
In the end of the dream I asked the ghost a question, but he disappeared before he could answer. As I suspected, it turned out that he was just teasing me, pretending not to be there anymore when he really was. Anyway, he laughed and then answered my question. What that question was, I have no idea.
When he left for good, I remember my dream-self thinking that I hoped this spirit wouldn't mind if I called him "Papa."
So yeah. Lol! I'm not sure why that was unless he really was my father in the dream. I do know that I knew him while he was still alive. I was just fortunate enough to be able to communicate with him after his death as well.

Bluebird Eggs & Book
I had a strange dream last night, but I’ll only mention what I mainly remember. Our neighbor, Penny, was over and I was holding a bird’s nest. Inside the nest was a hardcover of my book alongside two pretty bluebird eggs.
-------------------------------------
Snow!
Two or three days before it SNOWED (Yipee!), I had a Gerry dream with SNOW present. (Precognitive dream? You bet!) I was taking a trip with lots of people. I was so incredibly excited to see all the snow. I couldn’t wait to snap pictures of it, but everyone else was there to ice skate in the outdoor rink. I got out of the car, camera in hand, when I spotted Gerry in the distance. He was TALL and oh-my-God was he gorgeous. In this dream I was mad for the guy. I mean ‘Twitterpated’ beyond all hope. Lol! So I see him in the crowd and he catches me trying to slip away unnoticed. I never could ice skate and didn’t want to be forced to, so I wanted to slip off to take pictures of the snow instead. But Gerry saw me, and when he did he gave me this look that told me “Like hell you’re getting away. Nice try, but you’re not going anywhere.” He literally dragged me away from walking in the opposite direction.
Next thing I know he and I are in some room, sitting on a bench against a wall. We’re all alone and just talking. The whole time he was talking I kept wishing the man would just shut up and give me a kiss. Lol! We were only friends, but I knew I had to keep my feelings for him secret. I understood that he had to feel like HE was the one in control and making the first move. Anyway, he was wearing this strange necklace of a spider. He took it off and said he’s probably not going to wear it anymore, as it was silly. The whole time I couldn’t believe I kept a straight face b/c I thought the necklace pretty ridiculous, too.
After that, some people come inside the room. I was really disappointed because we were no longer alone, and not once did he make a move. Lol! He just talked every now and then, but for the most part was pretty quiet.
-------------------------------------
Television/Message
I really don't know that this means anything. I can barely recall this dream.
All I do remember, is that on a television I saw a scrolling text with a message from Patrick. It read: "Kristin you said you would come back to me...."
(Yes, there's that familiar phrase appearing yet again; "Come Back To Me").
There was lots more on the screen, but I just cannot recall it.
Bummer, huh? If that was a message trying to come through from him, why won't he come as himself like I ask? I guess men never listen, even after they're dead, huh?
Okay, to be fair I think he did listen. I did ask that he come into my dreams last night, and to give me a positive message. I guess this was it. Maybe coming in person in dreamstate is just difficult for him.
I only wish I could recall the rest of the message.
PS - I don't get the feeling that the "Come Back To Me" part of the message was the main idea he was trying to get across. It's just that that was the only sentence I remember from the dream. I wouldn't say he was 'pining away' for me. Lol! I don't even know for sure who the heck he is.
-------------------------------------
I've really thought about not typing up this dream that I had this morning, but I think I had better. It's been on my mind all day.
I've always wanted to come up with a home-based business that will make me happy, and which I'd be comfortable with. Even if it was a little side business in the beginning, I think that'd be great.
For years I've always wanted to learn how to make those fancy Fondant cakes. I don't have a sweet tooth and have never tasted a cake like this, but I've always seen them as works of art. The first time I saw them was when I had a subscription to Victoria magazine. I mean, I LOVE these cakes b/c with the right artist they can be so very beautiful. I've even seen a show about these on WE tv this year. People make them for weddings and showers.
A couple weeks ago I was looking at home-based business ideas. The only one I've always thought I might be able to do is pet photography, but I'm not at all comfortable with the thought of always having to drive to a stranger's home and then work there. (I like to work in my own space, and have a crippling fear of entering the homes of people I don't know). In addition to that, I have no sense of direction (as in finding their house. Lol!), absolutely hate driving, and suffer from social anxiety from time to time. Those three things alone tell me Pet Photography won't work out. So after looking up all these home business ideas, all of which I thought were boring and with no future, I just went on with my day. I even forgot all about looking up that stuff.
Fast forward to early this morning.
I woke with the memory of a dream. At first I just thought it was another silly dream, but then I recalled something in it which is definitely a symbol I relate to Patrick.
You got it, those darn rabbits again.
In my dream I was at my aunt's place. My aunt was living in this fancy hotel. She and my mother were about to leave to go to this place called "Fondant Mansion."
Yep, I said it. "Fondant Mansion." Even in my dream I thought, 'What a stupid name. Isn't that a type of cake that's so pretty?' Lol! It was some kind of antique store or gift shop.
Next thing I know, I tell them I'll at least go downstairs to the car with them because I had forgotten my makeup in there. But by the time we reached downstairs, I realized I hadn't been paying attention to where my aunt's room was compared to the lobby. With my sense of direction, never in a million years would I find my way back to it alone. So I tell them I'll just tag along with them to this shop they're going to visit.
Also--- when we entered the lobby of this hotel, I noticed that all the elevators had wood carvings of rabbits above them.
After that, I'm inside that shop. I'm in the back, by myself, looking at these little miniature glass figurines. They were of animals, I think. This is when I woke up, but I think - not sure - that some of the animals made of glass were a turtle or a snail? I'm unsure of what the others were on the shelf, but there were a lot.
Here's my interpretation:
Elevators = Going up... elevation... reaching new heights
Fondant MANSION = Money... financial success
My aunt = business woman
Fancy-schmancy hotel = financial success
Rabbits = Patrick's 'calling card' if you will. A message.
Glass miniature animals = breakable... small... handle with care
(Perhaps the way I see myself? I'm TOO cautious?)
Turtle/Snail = S-l-o-w to progress
(Representative of my current job with no advancement)
What if this was Patrick's way of telling me to think about having my own cake business? (NEVER in a MILLION years would I have thought of that on my own. I mean NEVER). What if it could be as successful as my aunt's new business she's just started? I'm not talking about mega bucks here... after all, they are just cakes... but maybe it'd be enough money for someone like me who has no family to support. It could just be a little side business.
Of course, I'd have to learn how to make the pretty things first. Lol! I know I could do it, but only if I enjoyed it. Otherwise, there would be no point.
The two things in this dream that did seem really silly and out of place were some teenage girls in the background, upset that they weren't invited to come with us to the mansion/shop. I've no idea what that meant. Also, back at my aunt's apartment Jack Sparrow (from Pirates of the Caribbean) was on her tv, but I'm not sure it was Johnny Depp's JS. It was some other actor that looked and acted A LOT like him. Again, I have no clue what that could mean. I did have a dream a few months ago - related to my writing I think - where POTC made an appearance, too. My only guess with this dream is to pay attention to the SPARROW in Jack Sparrow.
Sparrow = flight? Spreading my wings?
I don't know.
I do think this dream really was a message, however. When I see those rabbits, I always pay attention. If I really am on to something here, I wish Patrick would give me some confirmation. I mean, NEVER in a gazillion years would I have thought of this business idea. Even now, typing this all up, I'm very skeptical. I've always just seen learning how to bake those as just being something fun to learn as a hobby for myself and for family. Hell, I never bake or cook anything really. These cakes - of which I've never tasted even one of - are the only type of food/dessert I've ever actually looked forward to learning about.
Anyway, the elevators with the rabbits are the big symbols here I think. I think Patrick is telling me that this cake business idea (if I have that idea right) has possibilities.
Again, rabbits (message from Patrick), elevators, etc.
Maybe one day I'll give it a try, but I'm not holding my breath. This hobby I'll dive into for fun, and whatever happens (or not)... happens. I'll try not to burn down the kitchen.
-------------------------------------
Night before last, it took a while for me to fall asleep b/c of the voices I'd hear in my room off and on. (Some woman commenting to someone I was trying to sleep, then random words I couldn't hear well). I hear them in my room a lot these days, always at night, and usually it's a woman. They're harmless though, so it really doesn't bother me. Over the past months, I've slowly been talking myself into trying to develop my clairaudience. I've always been afraid that once it's on, I won't be able to turn it off.
So since I'm least afraid of Patrick, last night I told him that if he ever talks to me he's going to have to speak louder so I can hear him. I then told him that as I fall asleep, I'll try to listen for his voice. If I hear him, then great. (I've heard him a few times before anyway). If not, that's okay too. It'll take some practice, especially on my part. I also told him that I sure hope he's helping me find an agent, b/c while I'm trying to think positively..... it's almost impossible to keep that up since I've run out of agencies to query.
Then this morning I had a dream. I'm still not sure it was a dream visit, but I think it's possible since I haven't dreamt about him for eons and because before I went to sleep last night, I told him I'd wish he'd come into my dreams again. (I've asked him this before - a couple weeks ago - and nothing happened).
So this morning I dreamed that I was walking down the gallery upstairs, headed towards the bathroom. Once in the hall, I noticed that the computer was on in the guestroom. I could hear Patrick's voice constantly saying - "Becky... Becky... Becky... Becky." In the dream I didn't enter the bedroom b/c it was the middle of the night, was dark, I was the only one upstairs, and I just didn't have the guts to go in there alone I guess. I'm not exactly sure of the reason, however, b/c I immediately woke up from my dream then. And why? Because I had to go to the bathroom. Lol!
So you can see why I'm skeptical, right?
Or maybe that was the point. He knew I was about to get up, and was telling me he was in the guestroom just then? Did he think it'd freak me out more knowing that he'd hang out in my bedroom? Lol!
Or maybe the computer being on - and him being in that room - was the whole point? I just now thought of this, but that is the room and the computer where I write. Maybe that dream was just his way of saying he is trying to help me land an agent. Hmm....
I don't know. At least it's something to ponder. My instincts tell me that this might have been a dream where Patrick really is trying to tell me something. I guess I'll know soon enough.
Que Sera, Sera.
Whatever will be, will be.
Another reason why I think that really was a dream formulated by him, is because when I do hear his voice (which is rare, but has happened when awake), he's either just saying "Kristin" a couple times, or "Becky." I never hear any other message, but one of those names (usually Becky) being repeated. I wonder why that is?
Update: Another possibility for that dream could be his way of telling me to start writing again. But..... I really don't feel that's it. It's another guess at least.
-------------------------------------
We lost electricity from the hurricane for 15 days. (NOT fun, by the way). One of those evenings I did have a possible Patrick dream. In it I saw my nephew, Luke, only he was a little younger than he is now. I haven't seen the kids for a while now, and in my dream I was about to leave when I told him I loved him. My nephew said to me that people are always telling him that, and that he wishes people would come up with a new way to express those words. Lol! When I asked what other words he was looking for, he said "Wake Up." (Just like Patrick said in that loud evp that I have of him).
Weird dream, I know, but I've learned to pay attention even to the silly ones. Maybe it's his way of explaining to me what he meant by that evp. To "Wake Up" and remember that we love each other perhaps? (Even that feels uncomfortable to me, as I don't "know" him in my waking life. I'm VERY skeptical. Can't help it).
I also keep thinking I had a dream about him a few days back, only I can't recall any of it.
~*~*~*~*~*~
I don't know why I never mentioned this before, but over the years I have had this other recurring dream. I'm standing on this balcony of a huge castle. I'm surrounded by LOTS of people. Tons of people, shoulder-to-shoulder. It's pitch black out... and when I say that, I mean it is VERY DARK. So dark that you can't even see the people's faces when up close. It's really noisy with people talking, and we're all watching fireworks.
I also remember feeling in this dream that I should be having as much fun as the people celebrating around me. Instead, I was pretending to enjoy myself, at least a little bit. I felt very... unfulfilled, I guess. Alone. Sad.
----------------------------------------------
Bats!
8-20-08
This is a little strange. (Well, sort of, as things like this happen to me all the time).
Last night one part of my dream was a bat flying into our house, then - thankfully - flying back outside. Then today I turn the tv to Ghost Hunters. The first thing I notice is that a bat is harassing the team members. Then late tonight, what did Mom tell me but that she swears she saw a bat fly into our garage and then back out again. Lol! She said the neighbors laughed at her, saying it must have been the shadow of a truck. (Erhm, I don't know of any cars having wings unless it's the Batmobile).
But I thought all these bat coincidences pretty darn neat.
But back to my dream...
Another part of it was seeing some insect similar to a butterfly. It was all the colors of the rainbow. When I saw it, it severed in half but remained perched on the house.
I know what this meant, too. It echoes my hopelessness in ever finding an agent. That dream (hence the rainbow colors) is as good as dead, yet there it stays on it's perch.
-------------------------------------
Elizabeth
Isn’t this awesome? I had a dream the other morning where my sister and I were in my mother’s room watching tv. All of a sudden the lights flicker. When this happened I saw – with my own eyes – the light switch on the wall moving up and down. That right there told me it was a ghost that was turning the lights off and on. I turned to my sister and asked her if she knew the name of the spirit doing this. She concentrated on it a moment and said “Elizabeth.” (Which shocked me in the dream b/c it was a familiar name to me somehow).
Well, the next day I told my mother about it. Directly afterward, I checked my email and in my inbox was a new email from a friend asking if I was entering the latest contest on this author’s site. She said she thought the answer to the contest was “Elizabeth,” but that she wasn’t sure and didn’t have one of the books to do a look-up for that name. (The book which she didn’t have was the prize actually).
Well, today I read that she WON this contest. I thought that was so amazing. I just knew she had to win this one b/c of the “Elizabeth” coincidence I came across that morning in my dream.
-------------------------------------
When going to bed last night I had an image of a funky looking rabbit in my head. Since Patrick has mentioned my love of rabbits from that past life to 2 or 3 people, and since I've dreamt about one over the past year, I figure there's a possibility this is related to that past life. If so, I had one shaggy, crazy looking rabbit. Lol! It was a medium brown color with a creamy (not quite white, but almost) underside. It's ears hung down low and at an angle, and were really shaggy. This rabbit was very "scraggly" looking. I don't know much about rabbits, even though I did have one as a pet for a long time. It ran loose in our backyard like a dog, and lived quite happily beneath our deck. Thumper didn't have much to do with us though.
Anyway, this morning the word "Angora" kept popping into my head. I figured there must be a breed of rabbit with that name, but wasn't sure. I finally just googled "Scotland... Rabbit" and lo and behold I see pics of that scraggly little beast whose breed really is called "Angora."
I think this is grasping at straws, but on Wikipedia it mentioned this breed originating in Turkey. That stuck out to me b/c YEARS AGO my mother mentioned something about how she felt like Patrick might have been to Turkey sometime in that past life. Maybe stumbling into that was a message? If so, perhaps Patrick brought me back one from there since I had so many other rabbits and were so fond of them... and especially since that breed didn't really exist anywhere else at that time.
Some of them are pretty funky looking. I wonder if I even recognized what the heck it was? Lol! The one I saw in my mind's eyes was much scragglier than the ones in these pics.
-------------------------------------
I wish I could recall the entire dream, but all I remember is seeing a book set against pitch black. On the cover was a picture of Patrick's face that kept zooming in and out, sort of like a hologram. The book was surrounded by little sparks of fluorescent green light whenever the pages were turned.
-------------------------------------
This I'm not sure about. This dream really ticked me off actually. I was inside some gym where a basketball game was going on. Patrick was there, but he was ignoring me. I never received the impression that Patrick in this dream was the trickster spirit I've mentioned before, so either it was really him or it was just a dream I conjured myself. Anyway... in this dream Patrick's mind was fixated on nothing but that damned basketball game. I remember wanting a simple little hug from him, yet he outright ignored me. His eye was trained on that game and the players. It's like he was on a mission.
A few days later I thought that IF that was really him, maybe it was his way of letting me know that he's trying to help me find a literary agent. His eye was trained on that goal.
