Powerful Words, Something meaningful or too many movies? Options

So I have had two dreams recently that were nothing like I have ever experienced before. Both times I weilded a tremendous amount of power after speaking words in a strange language that I don't understand. I vividly remember everything *except* for the words themselves. I know that each time they were different.

First Dream: Several of my friends and family were fleeing from these dark robed creatures. We were hiding in an empty underground parking facility. There is a large garage door at one end. The creatures break down the door and everyone tries to hide. They shoot fire out of their hands at my best friend, I see her screaming and I step in front, saying words I don't understand. It doesn't feel like I thought the words, like an uncontrolled utterance. I feel energy flowing through me like a ripple. The ripple goes out of me and sends the fire back to them. The creatures turn to piles of ash. I wake up.

Last Night's Dream:

Myself and several people were in this old 3 story house. We were having some meaningless conversation when the house was attacked by these vicious evil crows (Think Resident Evil 3 meets The Birds) I hid in a room that luckily had bars on the windows... the birds had broken the glass already and were trying to peck through the bars . Behind me they peck through the door, once again I feel a wave of power and speak words I don't know or understand. The birds all burst in to flame and burn up. I wake up again.

Perhaps there are things in your life you know you should be doing but are really good at talking yourself out of doing them. The other possibility is denial. Maybe you are in denial over something(s). A more positive outlook is that you are learning to utilize a charasmatic quality within yourself.

Your friends and family are all what Carl Jung would call "dream alters" or parts of your ego that represent alternative attitudes within you that make up your entire personality. Friends and family are alters of your ego that you are familar with, you know them and understand them. They are parts of your personality you understand. They tend to be dominate qualities like moral character, optimism vs pessimism, being an introvert vs and extrovert litterally dozens of possible qualities. Some more positive than others.

The shadow figures are also alters but they are alters that represent the opposite of the alters your friends and family represent. The shadow people represent the shadow self, or the part of your personality that is hidden from your waking concsiousness. They represent things about yourself that you do not understand, that might seem frightening, or even represent qualities you are in denial over. Understand these shadow people are not "evil". In fact most shadow people represent positive qualites that we've merely forgotten or some how supressed. Their evasive apperance as "shadows" is merely parts within your own mind seeking validation and fruition. They are not seperate personalities. All alters simply represent peices of the greater puzzle that is all that is you.

When the shadows attacked your friends and family that was in a way like saying that the thing(s) they might represent are things that you feel on a subconscious level might threaten the greater ego. Its also their way of trying to get your attention.

By uttering the words that turned these shadow people to ash you, as defined by your primary self - the ego - made the shadow people go away. In other words you supressed them from fully manifesting and exposing what they really are. And they could be bad things. But things you might want to keep in mind for later dreams. They could represent something very important that you are neglecting.

Behind me they peck through the door, once again I feel a wave of power and speak words I don't know or understand. The birds all burst in to flame and burn up. I wake up again.

The house represents the total sum of your being. The structure is your mind's visual interpretation of your mental structure. The the levels correspond to the unconscious self, the subconscious self and the conscious self. The room that had the bars represents a personal prison, in a way. Its not a prison in the sense that you are locked up or in trouble but rather a place you go to hide. This means that the room represents a habit of running away from something(s), or a tendency to act out in a way that prevents you from having to deal with something(s) that might seem overwhelming or unpleasant. This could be anything from growing into adulthood, getting a new job, dealing with relationships and so forth.

The crows are a manifestation of the shadow people. Not they are the same thing but that they represent similar qualities. Crows by many native americans have been viewed as magical creatures and messengers of the Gods. In terms of modern psychology they can represent messengers from different (probably subconscious) areas of the mind. They also represent something(s) - could be major or incredibly minor - that you are avoiding or perhaps even just simply unaware of. Again their attack is their way of trying to get you to pay attention and learn from them.

Again the uttering the words and causing the birds to burn into ash represents supressing or avoiding what these birds mean and probably shadow people as well.

The title to this post grabbed my attention, I myself have been looking for a series of words but in a different way.

In one of my dreams, I believe I had it last night or the night before, I was in a building. It could have been a school for all I know. It was big and I was walking along a balcony on the 2nd floor. I turn to open a locker, for some reason I feel it belongs to me. However, the locker has no dial. I remember thinking "I need to remember that 10 worded sequence, what is it? I can't remember." I continued walking.

I ask this for some insight from others. I am a horrible person when it comes to logging my dreams into journals. This one just happened to be locked into my mind when I woke up and is so easy for me to recall.

What I got from analyzing my dream, was the building represented my mind. Everything inside belonged to my knowledge and memories. But inside my mind there is one doorway, "the locker", that I just can not tap into yet. Could there possibly be words that will open this 'door'? Or does it mean I'm not ready for what I'm looking for? I can only guess the multitude of possibilities that can be taken from this one little scene. Does anyone have anything they pick up off of this?

*background info*

For the past month or so I have been interpreting the Occult into my life for the first time ever. The realization is with me everyday. It has become a part of me now. I've been reading books, practicing and even seeing more things then usual. Just last night I thought I was seeing tiny balls of light in my room from the corner of my eye until I focused in on them. A particular one, was inside my bathroom with no windows or possible reflections of light. Not too long after, my cat jumped off of my bed and walked into the bathroom for about five seconds. Besides the incident last night where the event could just be viewed as "seeing things" from that 'normal' persons point of view, other things have begun to happen in my life as well where I just know they happened.

Thanks for any help I receive prior to the posts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

In one of my dreams, I believe I had it last night or the night before, I was in a building. It could have been a school for all I know.

Schools are commonly associated with centers of learning and knowledge as well as growing up and a center for socialization. Any of these are possible interpretations, but a place of knowledge and learning is what I tend to lean on.

I turn to open a locker, for some reason I feel it belongs to me. However, the locker has no dial. I remember thinking "I need to remember that 10 worded sequence, what is it? I can't remember." I continued walking.

A locker is place where you store things. In terms of dreams it can relate to emotions, memories, things learned from the past (since this locker is within the context of a school). So your dream may be trying to get you to remember something. But try not to over blow this. People often look for major hidden messages within dreams. In reality, your subconscious brain may simply be remembering something far more simple - like a grilled cheese sandwhich, or a missing home work assignment you knew you did, but lost and weren't able to turn in.

At any rate, not being able to remember the combination in my mind, tells me you are not allowing yourself to access the secrets of the locker. It might not seem like it, but in our dreams, we really are masters of our own realms. If you want to open a locker or a door within a dream, all you have to do is will it open. If you cannot open it, its because you are not letting yourself. Perhaps out of fear or a desire to not open any can of worms.

What I got from analyzing my dream, was the building represented my mind. Everything inside belonged to my knowledge and memories. But inside my mind there is one doorway, "the locker", that I just can not tap into yet. Could there possibly be words that will open this 'door'?

Does anyone have anything they pick up off of this?

The trick to opening doors within dreams has nothing to do with arcane sorcery or magickal riddles. Its all about reading between the lines and asking yourself why can you not open that door? There have been times in my dreams where I find a door I can't open and sometimes I've been content just to use an alternate root and sometimes I've had to use a bit of force and other times I just had to ask myself - what is it about myself that is not allowing me to open that door? When it comes down to it, its usually just a fear of the uknown. Fear and anxiety in general present formidable barriers to exploring dreams. But by understand one's own fear, they can learn to control it, rather than be dominated by it.

Dang, that's really annoying. I'm at the point where I don't fear much of anything. I wish I knew about the real me. Next time that door is coming off the hinges. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)

Fear is not a bad thing, at least as long as it doesn't dominate your life. Maybe by not letting yourself feel fear (or some other emotions) you are really repressing something - that could be the symbolism of the locker.

Oh I believe you, but to me it is ridiculous to think that fear is keeping information from me. I look at fear as a survival tool. Obviously if you fear pain you will try and keep away from situations where you are hurt.

Currently I am reading Awakening the Third Eye by Samuel Sagan, ---->Free Ebook, nab it!
http://www.clairvision.org/ckb/ckbe/ckbl/fol_0000_0001/cat_0000_0001/SaganATE.pdf

Along with the work indicated in Sagan's book, I am working on opening the third eye so I can see auras, spirits and the like. I know for a fact the first time I see a deceased person, I will fear the unknown for a second. I also know I will not maintain my fear longer than that. If that makes sense?

I don't lack any sense of fear completely, but I find it hard to fear longer then that first "boo".. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/prop.gif)

Educating yourself is not a bad thing and I would encourage you to read as much as you can get ahold of.

When it comes to fear don't see it as just a fight or flight response. Fear has multiple levels and can be anything from being unsure about the future to a down fear of dying. People fear many many things, rejection, success, failure, the past, the future and so forth. Fear is a normal emotion. Letting it control your life is not. Which, obviously you are not on that boat. Just saying.

And it might not even be fear at all. It could be any emotion you might be keeping under wraps that is within that locker in your dream. At that, it might not even be just one thing. It could be a whole powder keg of who knows what.
