Body Switch Dream

Dreams from the 22nd of January. I have since had very low dream recall and the dreams I do recall are of no interest, confusing or just plain weird.

Dream: Body Switch

In this dream I was in a man’s body. I had been missing for a while and my family – wife and daughter – had been searching for me.

The point in the dream I have more recall begins in the bathroom. I am left inside by my wife. A man accompanies me throughout the dream but only I can see him I think.

Inside the bathroom I look around. There is a ten dollar bill folded up and hanging by a string on the shower curtain rod over the bathtub. I grab it and unfold it realizing it was left for me in case I wandered home and needed money.

Then I looked into my supposed wife’s purse. It was full of makeup – loads of it actually. It was a purse which folded open to reveal all the makeup inside. I picked through it a while thinking, “How much makeup does she need?”

Then my wife and daughter were with me in the living room. My wife wanted to take me out in the evening to see a show of some kind. I remember thinking the schedule was quite packed and wondering how anyone in the family had time to breathe with so much to do all the time. I told her I would rather not go. This response I knew was out of character for me. I also knew she accepted it because I had been gone so long and it had “changed me”.

I recall looking at a shelf that had some stuff on it of our daughter’s. It was something to do with ponies and I mentioned that I had 50 MLP’s at home some of which were the originals. I mentioned Butterscotch and fond memories came to mind. The wife looked at me strangely and I knew that I was acting out of character again. I felt like me – a female with all memories of this lifetime – but the wife in the dream knew me as a man in her lifetime (dimension).

We were then outside of the house. On the far end someone turned on a sprinkler to water the lawn. It was hitting a flowerbed near the house. The house was made of limestone or white brick. I recall that someone (my daughter I think or a maid maybe) mentioned that I (as the man) would need to adjust the sprinkler. There was a discussion about my degree. I answered that I got a second Master’s degree in Social Science. I said it was easy to do since once you get one Master’s degree you only need to take a few more courses to get a second. I remember telling the man with me that I was ready to leave that place and go to my home. He agreed and took me away.

Dream: Too Good

In this dream I was with a man who was very good to me. He doted on me and treated me with so much respect and love that I did not know what to do with it. I remember thinking him “boring”.

He had dark (black) hair and eyes and pale skin. He was tall, clean cut and well dressed. He was fairly good looking, too, but not exactly my type. He had an air about him that said he was a proper gentleman and followed the rules. His energy was gentle and caring and had a fluid quality about it that put me at ease and made me feel calm and peaceful. If his energy were an element I would say it was water. In memory he reminds me of a Cancer I dated a long time ago.

We were in his room which was very nice. It relayed money and prestige. The modern look of it was most memorable with tall ceilings, lots of windows and light gray paint and white trim. The bedding was dark in color. We lay in his bed together, spooning and him being overall very good to me. I remember him bending over to kiss me and thinking he would go further but he withdrew and said it was not the right time. The feeling I got from him was that he did this out of respect and wanting to treat me perfectly at the perfect time.

There was a sense that he was in college and we were in his dorm room or something like it. It seemed like he was an only child and got everything he ever wanted from his parents. I remember feeling he was too good to me, too good for me. There was inner conversation about how I select mates that treat me how I feel I should be treated, which ultimately is not as good as I could be treated. My response was that the too nice guys were boring and I need more excitement.

When the man left the room I saw a child sleeping on a bed raised up high, like a bunk bed. The child felt like mine and I went up to him and asked him how he was doing, kissing him on the forehead. The child said, “I can’t sleep. It’s too bright in here.” He pointed to the windows and the moonlight streaming through. I saw that it was in his eyes and went and close the blinds. This helped but the uncovered windows above the larger windows with blinds and the skylights over him kept it very illuminated. I advised the boy to move over and he did saying it was better and he could sleep. It was at this point I noticed just how brightly lit the room was by the full moon.

I saw headphones on the bed attached to a very expensive watch. It was the man’s watch and he had been streaming music from it. I recall inspecting it and knowing it was very expensive – only the best for him. I thought it had to have cost at least $400. I heard the music playing and turned it off. I thought in the dream, “That’s funny, I don’t recall hearing music before.” With this I became overly lucid and woke up.

Considerations

I really don’t know what to think of these dreams. The first may have been me visiting an alternate life or timeline. I was aware that I was in a male body. I could feel the difference of it. But in my mind I felt like me in this female body with all the memories of this lifetime. It was very peculiar. Perhaps I was being shown this to help me understand something, but I’m not sure what.

The second dream seemed to be showing me an option. Or maybe it was just a dream to show me how I selected men who did not dote upon me or treat me like a queen. Upon waking I felt as though I was with mycurrent husband because he challenged me in ways a man like in the dream could not, or would not.
