My apologies if this should be in a different section, but it has to do with a normal dream I had just a few days ago (night of 11-1-07) This is what happened, (Notice, somewhat of a long read…) Also I apologize for any grammar mistakes.
I found myself in a rather large building, similar layout to a school but it seemed more of a warehouse. A large party was going on, many random people from school and people I’ve never seen before were there. The main people I remember are three of my friends and my sister the clearest. I begin this dream walking down a hallway with two friends and my sister, we are talking about various things (No idea what.) when we reach a corner, we turn and we see another of my friends, she is being told something by a group of people(I suspect the group was making fun of her or telling her bad news, more likely the former) halfway through their speaking she turns and quickly walks away, seemingly crying or on the verge of it. We split up into two groups 1 friend and my sister and me and my other friend to try and find her, as the building was rather maze-like. When we eventually meet back up with no success I say I will continue, the friend who was with me agrees and says he has an idea where she is, the other friend says “She might not want him to know about that place.” The friend with me replies “Well we don’t have much else to try.” The other agrees. (My sister and this friend disappear from the dream) My remaining friend asks me to follow him, I do and I’m lead to a open door, beyond which is a metal staircase (The place looks like a maintenance area.) The staircase goes down a bit then there is a broken spot, my friend is somehow on the other side already, I ask him to wait and he turns around looking impatiently for a moment then continues, I finally just jump and run after my friend. I find him waiting near a large pipe of sorts, the opening about 2/3 of a meter in diameter. He motions for me to follow after saying, “This leads to a secret place where she likes to think on things.” and we enter the pipe, it slants up and then suddenly down at one point. (The dream begins to lose some vividness here) I am somehow suddenly back where the dream started but noone is around, I wander around looking for the maintenance area and eventually find it (Kind of a black out and you’re there thing.) I rush down the stairs and head back into the pipe again, I get past the downward slant and then wake up.
So I have two questions, 1. Is there a way to make myself have this dream again without being lucid? (I would prefer not having my conscious mind interfere with what my subconscious is trying to tell me.)
and 2. Does anyone have any idea of what this dream could mean?
Any advice would be appreciated. Especially to question 1 as, I have no idea why but, This is the first dream I’ve had that i feel something like an urgency to finish
