Last night I had a very intense dream. Many details have escaped me, but certain things stand out very clearly. This might’ve been the most powerful creature I have ever encountered in the dream realm.
This dream started on an enormous ship, out at sea. It was not just any ship, but was able to fly and go to space. Nobody on board knew this, but the purpose of this ship was to give people the ability to get off Earth if an emergency would arise. For now it functioning as a ship at sea. The sea was fierce and wild. Dark clouds hung high in the sky above the waters, and giant waves played with the ship like it was a mere toy. I am unsure whether it was twilight or daytime with very dark clouds. It felt like something big was coming. Something was going to happen. The waters of the sea were clear. D was there, as was my brother M, and his girlfriend YL, and my friend T. with his girlfriend S. And T was in danger. He wanted to get away, away from the danger, what ever it was. D wanted to get away too, but not because of the danger, but from the crowd. The ship was really crowded. She longed for me to take her some place quiet and peaceful. I too longed for that, but right now T was doing something stupid. He had found some kind of escape pod and had taken a seat in the craft, and had plunged it into the water.
It was a really high tech craft. The way it looked reminded me of some of those deep sea submersibles, with a thick spherical bowl-like window. It also kinda looked like one of those flying cars from The Jetsons cartoon. But the thing is; this craft was meant to fly. It couldn’t travel through water. The engines got wet so they didn’t work, and so the craft just floated there, and the ship kept sailing on. At first I considered this was his problem. He had set this in motion so the consequences should be his to carry too. But still part of me was worried about him. I just wanted to check on him. D would rather not see me go, but she did not want me to go because she was worried about me. I thought to myself how different she is from my ex-girlfriend, cause my ex wouldn’t have wanted me to go because she saw me as her property. I told D how lucky I thought I was to have her, but that I did want to check on T and that she didn’t have to worry about me: “I just want to make sure that the path he has chosen now is safe.” I told her while holding her hands. I looked at M, and he smiled. He understood my reasons, and said: “Go. But try to let go of it.” I think he meant my feeling of responsibility towards T.
I could fly, so I levitated and went into the direction of T, who was now a blip on the horizon in the far distance, on what was now a quiet calm sea. M flew with me, but simultaneously also stayed behind with the rest. It was like he could see what I saw. As I flew and gained speed I tried to see the bottom of the sea, cause the water was just so very clear. In the reflection of the water I saw the stars in the sky. Maybe a morning sky, where the last stars slowly disappear in the ever brighter blue hue of the daytime sky. But I couldn’t see the bottom, cause it was way too far below the level of the water. The deeper I peered the darker it was down there. Pitch black dark. It had an ominous feel. I arrived at T, and stopped flying. I landed into the water, and it was a bit scary to be in the water to be honest. T was hurt; a deep cut ran across his belly. He had the pod opened up, like the bowl window was on hinges and would open up like the trunk of a car. I put my left hand on his wound and healed it. But T was determined to stay in the pod and leave. I tried to help him get the engines started, just like one would push a car, but I pushed from under the water upwards. I now got help from other beings. These beings were path-seers and healers, just like myself in this dream. Together we pushed the craft up and out of the water, and the engines fired up. It worked. The craft was hovering.
Now all the path-seers and healers went their own way, and so did I. I returned to the ship where D and the rest was. But while flying towards the vessel, I saw Angels flying high in the sky, rushing towards the location where T was. I looked over my shoulder and saw how T had not taken off yet, and was still hovering just above the water surface. The water was now dead calm and flat like the surface of a mirror. And in the deepest of the deep of the sea, I saw movement. Something was moving in the deep, and it was big. Very big indeed. But I couldn’t see it well, as it was incredibly deep still. Occasionally flashes of light accompanied the movement, though, and that gave me brief moments of seeing part of what creeped down below. It looked like a giant squid. Not just big or large; giant. Enormous. The size of skyscrapers. It was huge. Beyond any conceivable animal measure. Considering how deep this thing still was, it added to the suspense of how big it was whole. And we were about to find out as it seemed to be moving upwards towards T in his pod. I looked up at where the Angels were now, and estimated how long it would take them to reach T, then looked back at the progress the squid was making. I estimated the Angels would not make it in time. I had to go back.
Now I had wings on my back. They were made of golden feathers. In my haste I had flown all the way to the ship, but performed a tight turn and made an 180 like I was a fighter jet, while asking M for his assistance. He accompanied me, and together we flew towards where the beast would surface. And it had partially surfaced, and with one large long tentacle it had gripped the pod. Its mantle towered above the water surface, with its fins sticking upwards into the air. It was so terrifyingly big. Its eyes were above the water and it had such a menacing look. The first Angels had come close and started firing beams of light from their bodies onto the monster. They were able to prevent the beast from attempting to bring the pod with T in it to its beak and swallow it, but that’s all they accomplished. This fight had clearly only just started and the beast wasn’t going to give up. M and I increased our speed, and we were accompanied by more Angels. But we were still not going fast enough, and it looked like the Angels in the distance were losing the battle. We had to go faster. Then I got the idea to put my hands against my body and fire beams of energy from my palms, creating a sort of afterburner effect. It rocketed me at an incredible speed towards the battle, and the monster now took notice of me.
It was a weird feel. I knew the monster had noticed me, even before it would turn to me. It was like there was a spiritual element to this. It turned its huge body towards me, and I now stared into its enormous eyes. Its gaze was almost numbing. I could sense it was not afraid of me. It moved one of its tentacles up into the sky, readying it to strike me with it and kill me. As his tentacle moved, lighting bolts accompanied the movement. It was like one of those volcano eruptions where the pillar above the mount would spark lightning. This squid was so enormous that when it moved it would ionise the particles in the air. Lightning bolts and the sound of thunder accompanied his every move. This was what I saw when it was all the way in the deep, those flashes of light. As its tentacle came down I evaded its attack by continuing my flight under the surface of the water. There I saw in the clear waters that what we saw at the surface was only a fraction of the total of this monster. It was so big, so terribly big. I had to do something, but what? I was accompanied by a few strong warrior Angels. They telepathically asked me if I could help them. They were shooting beams of energy from their bodies; some from their hands, some from their eyes, some from their hearts. They all had a different method and colour of energy. I somehow felt it was my responsibility to defeat this monster, even though I wasn’t really an Angel (this was what I thought in the dream).
But I was able to shoot energy from my hands, as I had demonstrated earlier when I used to propel me forward faster. I tried to turn this ‘life energy’ into a weapon, and while flying shot a beam of energy from my left hand onto this monster. But it didn’t do enough. I wanted to fire a barrage of these attacks but the one beam just didn’t have the power I had imagined they would. They did impact it, and I sensed it felt pain, but it wasn’t enough to deter it. The Angels and I surfaced now. There the beak of the monster was now visible, surrounded by a row of giant tentacles that swung through the airs while lighting and the sound of thunder occasionally jolted from its limbs. And this animal was mad at me. Very mad. The warrior Angels came together to discuss a battle plan. I joined them. They were unable to beat this thing. But I had an idea. I suggested we would catch the energy from the lightning bolts and add that to the energy of our own attacks. They thought that was a great plan. “Good! You’re catching on!” They said. We were going to use its own force against itself. They got to work immediately, but while they did the animal had put its focus on me a second time. Its numbing gaze was calm yet furious. Its beak pointed towards me, and we could feel a build up of energy in the beast. It was determined to kill me. Its beak opened and it unleashed its attack.
An incredible blow followed and I was hit by whatever attack this was. And it kept coming. I was stuck in some kind of beam, and completely disorientated. This attack was depleting my strength and I truly felt the life flow out of me. I was dying. But the Angels now started cheering me on: “You don’t have to be afraid, Willem!” And their cheering worked. I felt wanted and supported. I was no longer afraid. While I was stuck in this attack that had its focus on me like I was in a large laser beam, I thought about D and my new home, and all the new friends I had made in the student dorm. I didn’t want to give them up. This new found will strengthened me, and I turned my wings on my back towards the beast. These wings started blocking the effects of the attack. Better still, I started to absorb this energy so I could use it in an attack. The beam stopped, and the animal focussed on T in the pod again. If he couldn’t kill me, he would kill him instead. With great speed I rushed back to the battle and fired everything I had in an attempt to get it to fire on me a second time. But it didn’t fall for it. Then I got the idea. What if instead of firing from just my hands, I discharge energy from my whole body?
I gave that a try, gathered my strength and tried to build up to another attack. The air around me started to vibrate and hum, the water vibrated, and ripples in the water oscillated from my position. It became louder and louder, and the monster took notice. It let go of the pod, and tried to flee by diving back into the deep. But my attack wasn’t ready yet, so I fired it off prematurely. My attack was made of sound that could be seen as light, and it hit the beast on its mantle. Had I been able to charge up to full power this attack would have vaporised this monster. But though not at full strength; this attack was the most powerful blow yet dealt to this creature, and its colossal body was pushed backwards violently. It experienced a lot of pain, and was now very frightened. But it survived the attack and continued its retreat into the deep waters down below. It disappeared completely into the darkness. We had defeated it. All the Angels looked at me for a few seconds, after which they looked upwards into the sky, and flew straight up. And I felt a strong urge to follow them, but I couldn’t do it somehow. My wings were suddenly gone now too.
But then I recalled D, who was on the ship, with my other friends. I grabbed T from the pod and flew back to the ship, where I put him on the deck and rushed to D to hug her. She cried and said: “Please don’t do that again.” I felt guilty for wanting to go with the Angels. I would’ve left her behind. It wasn’t because I didn’t love her any more, but because the feeling of brotherhood I felt from the Angels was so beautiful, that I had simply forgotten about the world around me. I promised D I would not leave her behind again, and kissed her on the forehead. T now started to cry. He regretted his decisions. He had planned to leave his girlfriend S behind when he decided to get into that pod. When he saw me with D, it reminded him of what he and S had together.
