Magic, I have dreams like this. Well, a bit different. I'll find one in a minute so you see what I mean. (I'm not seeking anyone's interpretation, btw). As far as I can tell, nothing comes of them. Probably best just to analyse them like you would any other dream. I think this one may just be your subconscious anticipating that not everyone will respond positively to the development work you're doing. It could also reveal some mild anxiety about what you're doing leading you somewhere you don't wish to go (i.e. the dark side). The dream I'll add at the end of this shows similar anxiety.
In order for them to be considered lucid dreams you have to know what you're doing, control it and be able to control your dream environment, so Idon't think they are lucid dreams.
Possession Dream 7.1.07
I’m in a room with T and A (the Rs). We’re discussing how Madonna (the pop star) is apparently flying and able to demonstrate it. I explain to them that I too have the ability. I ask them if they’d like to see and they agree. So I spread my arms and my legs too into a star jump, levitate slowly and float round the perimeters of the room. Suddenly, behind closed eyes, I see the name, “Emily.â€Â
There’s a knock at the door. A girl with a band of adults arrives and her name is “Emily.†They ask for my help so I follow them outside. On the way out, I tell the Rs that I’m writing a book on my abilities. I’m thinking of asking A if he’d like to write a chapter collaborating what he has seen.
We’re on a covered bridge. Emily sits on a bench with her back against the side. I ask her to tell me about herself. She says she has multiple personalities and I become uncomfortable because I know what’s coming. She asks me if I’d like to see. Then her eyes change to an opaque yellowy colour. The demon possessing her asks me to ask him his name. I hear my mother’s voice say, “Donna, don’t!â€Â
I know I’m out of my depth, that I’ve enjoyed flying and seeking publicity but that I have no power over this demon. I say, “You’ve violated your agreement with God,†suggesting that he’s broken the rules by overruling Emily’s free will. I feel the lameness of this argument. I know in my heart that freewill is restricted by level of consciousness and the will of the less conscious is easily commandeered by the stronger wills of those with greater conscious awareness. God permits this. I realise powerful demonic beings aren’t evil because of unconsciousness; they are evil and highly conscious.
I know instinctively too that this demon will be well aware of every agreement I’ve ever broken and able to use this against me. Guilt over this will be a weakness, my undoing. I realise my ability to fly is a trick, a talent, perhaps a fluke and not a manifestation of great spiritual growth. The dream ends; I haven’t helped Emily.
