I previously posted the dream "Auras and Aliens" back in January, if that's relevant or helps.

When I was a kid, probably up until I was around the age of 13 or so, I used to have this nightmare, and it's the only nightmare i've had that was recurring.. I've been just keeping it in the back of mind on the back burner, trying to interpret it when I think about it, but some outside perspective would be really cool...

Basically it starts out with me walking in this city, like downtown somewhere, it's daytime, probably around dusk, it's light out but I cannot see the sun.. and there's kind of like a real low noise or rumble, and throughout the whole dream, it's making me feel very nauseous, very uneasy.. it's vibrating my insides. I could actually FEEL this unease, so I guess there was some lucidity to the dream. I walk around the sidewalk and I see all these kids, and they're all reaching down and picking up these pebbles off the ground, like pieces of gravel they find on the sidewalk.. I can't talk to them or interact with them.. like they're slaves or programmed to carry out this task.. so I keep walking around, and eventually this noise keeps getting like, more present and sounds like it's more near... so I turn a corner, and there's this like, gigantic wall, almost like a tidal wave, but it's not moving, except within itself.. it was an amorphous mass, and it's translucent, like, it's clear, but inside of it there's all these moving colors, kind of like when you see shiny through a prism, and there are all these colors but they all kind of blend together and change.. and this it what was making the noise, and i'm standing in front of it, and i'm feeling very nauseous and uneasy. I don't know if it's actually a hostile or evil force, but I'm very afraid of it so I interpret it as a threat or something I have to get away from. I look and see that all these kids are throwing their gravel they found at this wall, and my initial thought was that they were trying to like, hurt it or make it go away or something... but somewhere along the line, I realized that they were feeding it, almost like they were slaves to it or something.. I don't remember anything much beyond that... The strangest part of this is dream is that it used to happen the exact same way every time, so in the back of my mind I knew how it would end up, but at the same time, IN the dream I had no idea how it would end up, it was like it was the first time. Thoughts?

Darryn,
Because the dream was during your early teens can you give me some details of what your life was like during those years. Did you have a happy childhood? Dreams reflect what the true self is at the time of the dream. The three things that stand out for me in the dream are the pebbles, the noise, the wall and the fear you felt. One phrase in particular got my attention, "programmed to carry out this task." The pebbles could represent little annoyances in life but they also could represent smaller issues related to larger problems {pebble being from larger stones}. The noise would be significant and could represent an uncertainty or fear surrounding a life situation. The wall is a barrier that needs to be removed or gotten past. The fear or threat could be a literal fact in your life {again, at the time you had the dream}. We must take into consideration your age. Thirteen is a time of body as well as psychological changes and the dream may {or may not} have to do with those issues. If there was something in your early childhood that would fit then the dream would likely be addressing those issues. Were your parents good parents, in terms of not only providing substance and protection but also providing adequate love, attention and acceptance? Some additional information about that period in your life will be very helpful in analyzing the dream.
