I dreamed about a Pilot Whale

I had a strange dream experience this morning. It's the only part of the dream I can remember, and it's a fairly vivid recollection at that.

I was inside a room with white walls. It had a sort of living room feel to it, although it wasn't any specific room I know I've seen. The lighting was similar to what you expect from track lighting; bright spots here or there, but not uniform lighting like you get from overhead lights usually.

Against one wall was a giant vertical tank, and in that tank...poking up and over the top was this big dolphin-looking creature. But this animal was not exactly like a dolphin. The head was somehow different, the skin was like a charcoal metallic sheen with a tinge of indigo. There were a couple of distinct yet attractive dirty blonde markings on its head. The animal was trying to get my attention.

I remember saying, "Wait, you're one of those pilot whales, aren't you?". It communicated, I don't recall if it was verbally or telepathically, that it was.

We had conversation and activity together beyond that point, but I don't recall it.

I had this experience stuck in my head all morning. Finally, I broke down and hit up Google Images for pictures of pilot whales. What I found blew my mind.

Now, I'm here to tell you I didn't consciously know what a pilot whale looks like. To my knowledge, I haven't heard or thought about pilot whales in years. In fact, I don't know that I've ever had a single thought about them. Ever.

But this morning I had a dream that I met one.

What's that all about?

Prophesy or prattle? Sharing a dream

Today I awoke with a dream fresh in my mind. Because it felt somewhat predictive, and because it didn't seem to have any personal content that might embarrass myself or anyone close to me, I thought I'd write about it. Maybe some of you have ideas on the dream's meaning.

There was a single building. Inside were two halves. On the north side there was a dance club or party.  There was loud modern dance music and lots of colorful moving lights. There were lots of people dancing and having a good time there. On the south side was a sit-down restaurant. It was a quite setting and I don't recall the noise from next door invading this space.  There were no doors between the parts of the building; the groups were completely isolated from each other.  It was night outside.

The fire alarm went off on the restaurant side, where my awareness was at that time. I can't say I was a participant.  I was really just observing.  There didn't seem to be any immediate danger and the folks inside didn't panic.  They just started moving toward the door in an orderly fashion.  It seemed as if maybe someone pulled the alarm as a prank - but it's unclear.

As everyone from the restaurant side was filing out the door on the west side, they became aware of the partiers in the other part of the building. Some went inside to warn them of the alarm, but the alarm didn't seem to be sounding on that side.

They decided to continue on with their celebration, unafraid of any danger. They didn't believe it wasn't a real situation either. However, a man who seemed to be "mayor" of this group of people or town in which the building was located wanted to make them get out since he and the others had to. It wasn't as if he was truly concerned for the folks dancing - he just wanted them to be inconvenienced, too.

I don't think they ever came out.

My personal interpretation of this dream: It felt predictive. It seems to herald a coming event that will be as an alarm to the traditional, family-oriented people of the world. The alarm will come from their side of society. Those who are just busy being happy and enjoying life won't take it seriously and probably don't need to.

That said, it seems the world's leaders may want to make them obey the alarm because it's what they're supposed to do, and everyone else has to.

But what about you?  Do you have a different interpretation of this dream?  I'd love to hear it!  You know where the comment box is. 

Peace!  To both sides of the building.
