before i moved, i had a very special dream, though i didn't realise it was very special at the time.

***

i was lying on a grassy hill, somewhere in the alps. the mountains looked so real, so lifelike. my surroundings were so familiar, so homely that is almost seemed as if i had been living in the alps for my entire life. by the looks of the weather, it was clearly springtime; neither cold, nor hot. the colours were so vivid...it was beautiful. as i lay in the grass, i stared up at the sky. above me was a rainbow, so amazing, so ethereal. the longer i stared at the rainbow, the more it hypnotised me. in fact, i drew all my attention. soon, i found myself gently floating away from the ground, towards the rainbow. it was like a magnetic attraction. and then, before i knew it, i was inside the very rainbow itself. dreamy prisms of colour were falling upon the mountains below me. though i was now in the rainbow, i noticed that i hadn't stopped moving. i was flowing down the curve of the rainbow, to the place were the pot of gold would be, presumably. i reached the pot of gold, though what awaited me there certainly wasn't treasure. i looked into the pot, and saw a reflection of ehrenfeld. it soon began to dawn on me that i was dreaming. the illusion started to slip away...i desperately tried to stay asleep, to keep the dream alive, but to no avail...

five hours later, wide awake, i found myself on a plane out of ehrenfeld.

almost two months later, i am here, in poland. happy. i still reflect on my dream, wondering if it meant anything. i decided to look up, on google, what it meant for rainbows to appear in your dreams. here is what experiencefestival.com says:

rainbow.
always a positive symbol. no matter what the rest of the dream implies, if the dream ends with a rainbow, particularly if you find the pot of gold, the dream is a portent of the end of all your troubles followed by much happiness.

on that note, i have a question for you: do you think your dreams mean anything? do you think they can predict the future in some subtle (or very obvious) way? alternatively, you can share your favourite dream with me.

dreams, thoughts
