A little background:
- I have a two-year associate of arts degree but never finished my bachelor of arts, which is a great source of shame for me (ran out of money). I frequently have dreams about school where I can't find my locker or I'm the only one who failed a test--that kind of thing. I think the two are related somehow.
- I'm currently on a diet, trying to lose a substantial amount of weight.
- I've made a decision that this Friday on the Full Moon, I'm going to devote a year and a day to studying The Inner Temple of Witchcraft by Christopher Penczak. I'm excited to do it, but a little nervous, too, because I'm doing it on my own.
I was living in a dormitory at school. I was in the basement, getting food and soda out of the vending machines. I took the elevator to my room on the 12th floor. The elevator went sideways and upside down, and it took a very long time to reach the 12th floor. There were other people (none were familiar) on the elevator, and they didn't seem to mind. When I finally got off, I couldn't find my room. It seemed like whichever way I looked, the room numbers got farther away from mine. As I wandered, the hallways got narrower to the point where I barely fit. I remember getting more panicky the longer I searched.
After I woke up, I tried to figure it out.
- It might be a take on the school theme. Since I no longer fit, maybe I should just let go of the dream of finishing school.
- It might be the Universe reminding me to stay on my diet.
- It could be the Universe letting me know it's time to "graduate" from my old spiritual life (12th floor = 12th grade) because it doesn't fit me anymore. Maybe the elevator ride indicates that it will be an interesting journey. (I wasn't afraid on the elevator, just in the hallways.)
I wish a spiritual dream would have a more direct message, but maybe I'm not ready for that yet.
Blessed be,
Patty
