Thread: Leader in a life I wish I did live

That is very compelling. I think it is more than a symbolic representation of inner conflict about choices and decisions, since your subconscious could probably have more efficient methods of getting that across.

The time shift is interesting. It sounds like you were going from some future battle to something in the distant past, but time is nonlinear. I think of reincarnations as being something like points along a line, and from above the line, the future can be the past in this sequence, and vice versa... there is a vertical as well as horizontal dimension, if that makes any sense.

This one is continuing over the course of weeks, and that indicates that it is a significant dream sequence.

Hope this helps. When dreams feel more real than waking life, who knows, maybe they are.

There is a philosophical element here too - your soldiers from the 'future' look down on the cave dwellers from the 'past' because they are not as technologically advanced, but you are bringing the lessons of cooperation.

The enemies with their black uniforms might have a symbolic as well as extradimensional meaning - the fight against something destructive. It is a battle both within us, and in this world, and in other worlds, other planets, other times, other dimensions.

Meaning in these sorts of things is what you make of it. In a certain way of thinking, of course it is real. Worlds like this are no more "provable" than the one we're in now. You only know one thing for sure: you are experiencing it. The ideas of "real" and "unreal" are, in my estimation, simply a semantical misunderstanding. What you experience is real. The causes of those things which you experience are a different question. Any value or worth is placed there only by you.

It cannot be proven with any real certainty that this world you describe is or is not a life in a parallel dimension, or conversely, all in your head. And in the end, it doesn't matter. You exist, and the things you experience exist through you. Enjoy your time in the world, be it this one, or any other.

I can however identify with your sense of attachment with this beautiful woman you do not know.
This dream or theme I have experienced in various developmental stages of my life, mostly shortly before, during and after puberty. Not really after I have had deep and meaningful relationships with the other sex in real life.
Meet an incredibly attractive woman who you have never met in real life (has looked something like a childhood sweetheart at times) with a very powerful sense of mutual understanding.
I expect many others have had this same dream and that it is a natural part of our physical, emotional and mental development.
You dont say how old you are? I am guessing you are under 18 am I right?
