Anyhoo, interesting interesting dreams lately, especially the ones from this morning. I was exhausted yesterday from preparing food for a picnic and walking (and also doing the monthly group ritual), so I fell asleep at 10 PM. I didn't have dreams until after my dog woke me up at 6 AM to go to the potty then I took him out and went back to bed. Oh boy. What weird dreams happened after that.
One of the dreams starred a lovely lady pushing around a cart of what looked to contain an ostrich and some little chicks. She cheerfully handed me a little chick and pushed her cart merrily away. I looked at the chick and realized it wasn't a real chick but a tiny yellow chick stuffed animal. But it was enchanted to act like a chick! It was blinking and chirping in my hands! She was a talented witch! But I think her backstory was a sad one as she seemed to have some sort of mental illness resulting from some trauma. I think she enchanted objects (especially these little chicks) as a coping mechanism. TT.TT I heard this all from a character in my dream.
The next dream is connected to this one, I think. Me and said character enter a room which appears to be a home or maybe a workshop? I'm not sure why we ended up here but we're here xD I walk around, and see two large flashes of white light. A feeling of uneasiness comes over me.
"What was that?" asked my traveling companion. I am not sure. The uneasiness grows and it feels hostile. I realize that this place must belong to the witch from earlier and her negative energy is lingering around from one of her psychotic episodes. I decide to do a serious cleansing and protection spell. I was NOT going to have my companion get hurt! I chanted over and over in a loud voice, "By the powers invested in me, may all the negative energy in this room be banished" and also "May protective and positive energies invested in me fill this space, so mote it be." (The exact wording I can't remember but it was something like this haha) It was having such an effect on the energy in the room that the colors in the dream kind of warped and blurred a bit-- very interesting. After all the vibrations stopped, the room felt normal and cleansed. Whew! A lot of work but it was worth it to not have that icky energy in there anymore. Reflecting back on this dream, I feel a little sad for that witch. She seemed to be alone and didn't have anyone to support/take care of her... if she ever makes an appearance in my dreams again, I'll try and interact with her some more ^^
Once in a while, I'll get dreams like this where I do ritual work and cleansing, healing, energy manipulation etc. but I'm not entirely lucid xD I can teleport and summon objects to me (Harry Potter Accio style), do telekinesis as well but it's a shame I'm not aware of what's going on. I just do it out of habit. Sometimes I find that becoming lucid makes me afraid to do anything though, so I'll have to get over that hurdle if I really want to harness the potential of my dream work. If I can get over that, I can do many more things and jump easier into the astral

Still have more dreams to share from several weeks ago but that will be for next time~ toodles~ ^^
