Running from Snape

Oct 09, 2006 22:00

Most of this dream was completely nonsensical but the interesting part was that I was some sort of random female Hogwarts student, not my real self, and I'd say about 13 years old or younger. I was trying to beat Snape to something at the bottom of a dungeon (random D&D style dungeon lol), thinking he was evil and going to do something very bad. I used a rickety ancient wooden elevator contraption to go down a long shaft full of twisty old vines; the whole place seemed lit with this eerie green glow coming from somewhere unknown (moss? the presence of an evil power?).

I got to the lowest point the elevator would go to and saw a passage with more tangly vines all through it ahead, but enough room to squeeze through under the vines. (Below the elevator the shaft continued and was very dark.) I didn't make it very far, I was stepping off the elevator as it suddenly started to fall apart. I fell off the edge, grabbing a vine, but it tore loose and I fell.

My descent stopped almost as soon as it began, and Snape was above me, he'd caught my wrist. I realized then that he wasn't evil, that he would have let me die otherwise. He'd been trying to catch up to me to tell me. (I dunno exactly how he was not falling with me, maybe he was floating or had gotten a good hold on the vines above or something... that part of the dream is unclear.) He helped me get over to the edge of the pit. It turned out we were both on the same quest with the same good intentions, so I joined up with him and we started towards the vine-choked passage.

I don't remember anymore.

Thoughts:

Dude, two dreams close to the same time that both basically tell me to follow my heart. (See the chicken dream posted after this one.) And yet more general subconscious encouragement, specifically the "dungeon" interpretation.
