Read this about dreams......

I just want to ask-do dreams mean anything?
I had a dream the other night where Jimi Hendrix,
THE JIMI HENDRIX
popped in and started playing for me and a classroom full of people and then Stone was suppossed to play something off the new album,
but an old song came on.I never actually saw Stone in my dream,
but I heard his voice.

Wierd huh?
Any dream translators out there?

i'd say you're ridiculously obsessed with seattle musicians, first off, then i'd say if jimi was alive i bet he'd probably pay a visit to his old school there and hang out with the kids. hearing stone's voice? that's annoying.....

plus you need a lot of attention.

so here it is.

ali, you're a legend in your own mind.

love you.

very cool....I had a dream about Jim Morrison once...Very real

The Great Dream Interpreter Carl Jung would say all dreams are messages!
The obvious is for us to figure what’s the message? The Unconscious tries to communicate with us one of the only ways it knows how – DREAMS…

I think it means simply that you are very passonate about music, and that music is all tied up in your mind with the rest of your life, i.e. your desires, your past, etc...

I also think Lengthy had some good points....

I love you too...but obsessed is knocking down someones door.Being a good fan is PAYING RESPECT.

Thank you...I know I'm a legend.Probably too old to be famous, but some know of me!
Peace out sweetheart!;)

I also think that dreams are a connection to the afterlife,
but Biblically...dreams mean nothing....going to have to wait to ask an expert spiritualist or priest!:)
But that dream was so real!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you want to hear a weird dream? This happened Sunday, February 13th. I had a dream that my twin sister was handing me a baby with dark hair(whose back was turned to me). I was in the house that my family lived in for 3 years in West Bloomfield, Michigan in the mid 1970's. It was my favorite house. I opened the front door and there was my twin handing me this baby. My twin is the person I'm most comfortable about. The baby had dark hair, blue jeans, and a sweatshirt. I found out that about the same time I was having this dream my niece, Margaret was being born. Margaret is my older sister's child, and her sister has really orange hair, so I thought it could not be about her. Lo and behold she has dark hair. I don't feel a "connection" with Margaret when I hold her necessarily, but I do sense that there is a reason she wanted to say hello to me around all that warm-fuzzy feeling in my dream.

Its strangs...but the Bible says...not to be all Catholic on you that dreams mean nothing...but I believe that VISIONS are everything.I believe you were meant to have that dream.
as for me...I'm fighting with a career change...I could use some advice.
ADVISE ME PEOPLE!
I'm sick of being 32 years old and coming across every loser possible into everydrug and perverted fashion known to man in the entertainment arena.
I'm what you call a local artist.I'll probably never make it "BIG" to the point of someone like Bon Jovi or Pearl Jam stature,I'm too old,yet alot of these artists know who I may be through pushing my name around.I'm a poor starving artist who hasnt quite made it and I'm seriously thinking of going back to school for another degree in something other than my field.....
or I can go back and get that entertainment lighting degree and work with a famous band.
what do you think?
Is that what my hendrix and stone dream was trying to convey?Stick with it?

Some people believe dreams are symbolic messages from the more ancient parts of the human brain. Before words there were images that meant something.

To interpret your dream about Jimi Hendrix and Stone and the school and why you only heard Ston'e voice but didn't see him...we'd need to know what Jimi Hendrix represents to you in your waking life. In your dream, he's a symbol--just as Stone is in your dream as well.

If you're really interested in dream interpretations, there are dream dictionaries that try to explain how many symbols are commonly used.

If you go to Barnes and Nobles or Borders or some other large store, you can probably look at several.

Ali

Thank you....I like to think of them as visions when they seem so real and I'm actually in them.

Me too--because in a way they are--they get me thinking.

grooveamatic

The entertainment lighting idea sounds really cool--but is there work out there? Is it extremely competitive?

Ali

SERIOUSLY...IF YOU COULDVE SEEN jIMI...(i'M LISTENING TO HIM RIGHT NOW)...i NEVER MET THE MAN BEFORE IN MY LIFE...BUT HE WAS DRESSED TO A t AND HIS VOICE AND PLAYING WAS RIGHT ON.

grooveamatic

Dreams are probably the most bizarre aspect of human existence. I honestly tried to stop figuring them out a few years ago; it's the type of thing that can drive you crazy.

Hmmmm...
How were you feeling while you were there? What were you noticing at the time?

It's not the nature of the dreams that were threatening to drive me crazy--rather, the existence of dreams at all (the existence of Time often does this to me, as well)...also, I am certainly exaggerating for dramatic effect; neither of these things have threatened to drive me crazy, they just hyper-perplex me.


as far as your career, i suggest going to school for something, because it seems like you want to. and stop hanging out with the loser dudes...you've been complaining about that since I've known you. I find that the company you keep truly influences your whole life.

Ali

WEll...I felt good.I was in a classroom and all these kids were there and
they were playing a guitar and I felt really good and I was teaching them how to play when hendrix just popped up in the door and the kids went wild.
he started playing and I couldnt believe it...I was like...I knew I was in a dream/vision but he justwas smiling away.....
It was a happy dream ....he made me feel good and the kids were in awe.

I just know losers....they all toke the whistle.and I am going back to school for the lighting degree....I wanna work with a band and go on tour.
I'm a gypsy.

grooveamatic

i was a gypsy once, but not in any glamorous way like touring with bands....more like sleeping on couches, lawns and the occasional landlocked canoe. it was fun. but not really.

touring, though...that would be fun.

Ali

I escaped my life last summmer....ran away...without a care in the world.
I wigged out...talked to myslef...still do when I'm stressed...trying to get up my psychic energies.But it was an extrodinary trip.I'd love to just hike a tall,cold mountain and do it all again.I will when I have the money and i'm alittle older to do it more responsibly.
I'm a strange bird in that respect.

it is fun, to just get away and get outside of everything....but that's not my reality anymore....oh well maybe again someday and yes, in a more respectable way...

it has been fun chatting w/ you again ali...but must get to bed now...

Ali

Yes groove...have a nice vision of me:)
Sweet dreams my prince.....

Ali, this is wonderful!

It seems like you were sharing the vividness of your love for music with these children. Almost like bringing the passion you felt for it (and Hendrix really represents musical passion, uniqueness and forcefulness to me) to life for some young people.

Ali

Thank you...and I know hendrix was really there!

It could be trying to tell you that 32 is not old, and that you are not too old, and to snap out of your funk and make the life you want. It takes years, sure, but it's yours. I'm finally taking a drawing class, finally, finally, and I'm looking forward to seeing the world differently. :-)

OK thanks.

I just want Ali to be happy and forget about loser/stoner musicians. Forget about touring unless it's Ali's fabulous self on tour.

Ali, people on here tell other people they write well when its quality is questionable. Trust yourself only.


There's some more attention for you!

Love again.
