Dream of the Week: In the Pink Dimension

The beginning of this dream is broken with few details. I'm at a large, futuristic resort and I think I've been walking around for a bit checking out the pool and other amenities. I come to a snack cafe that resembles a movie theatre concession stand and I'm waiting for popcorn while sitting on a couch. I think everything is a little unusual and wonder if it's a dream. I realize that it is and become lucid in that moment. ⚡️

I notice a quite tall man in his late 20s or 30s with brown hair sitting next to me. We start talking in a friendly, almost flirty way. I go into to hug him and say goodbye but he stops me and says, "when are we going to talk about the fact that you're not a real person." I am completely taken aback. He smiles at my astonishment and we both get up to go on a walk. He tells me that he is very familiar with the dreaming world and is a part of several dream groups that I should know about. We're walking up some stairs now and it gets very crowded with people walking really closely to us. I tell him that the dream seems very unstable and he needs to quickly tell me the names of the dream groups he's in. At that same moment, he falls to the ground, his body lifeless and his eyes closed.

I seem to understand that he has "fallen out" of his dream body and perhaps has woken up into another place. I am so surprised by all of this, I fall to his side and try to shake him back awake. Nothing seems to work and the people around me continue to walk on their way. I feel a sense of urgency that I need to wake this guy back up or look for identification. He is wearing a kind of dog-tag with the letters "I Z O" in red ink that look more like ragged shapes than actual letters.

All of the sudden, I seem to "fall out" of my dream body which falls to the ground but I am now in some sort of alternate or sub world dimension in which everything is a kind of pink hue and watery - but it's the exact same place I just was in. I see my body on the ground next to the man... who then stands up and is moving around the original dream world again. I am trying to communicate with him from my world, but it doesn't work. I wake up with everything crystal clear and a feeling of utter, perplexing astonishment.


Quick Reflection:
Lots of darkness, anger, and negativity this week. What’s up, mind? I don’t quite feel like there’s been anything new to warrant such vibes, but I guess there’s something going on inside. My usual creative silliness was noticeably absent and I missed those ridiculous celebrity encounters typical each week. Nonetheless, we see a Top Dream! A rare treat in which a dream feels BIG. I wake up feeling… different somehow

I also used Galantamine on Friday to help with dream recall, vividness, and lucidity. The dreams marked with an asterisk* are all on a night where I took an 8mg dose around 5:30am.
