Subject: Magical Powers and Taunting the Devil

I was in a house with large trees around outside. It was very dark and there were several girls in the house, like we were having a party.

None of us got along very well, although I tried to keep the peace between them.

I discovered that I had a magic power: I could change objects into other objects and telepathically bring them to me.

I practiced my power on many things but it sometimes didn't work. Some of the meaner girls asked me to prove my power and I tried to, using a book, but it didn't work.

I was able to work my magic on a small, round, black disk, but the book was hopeless.

I then practiced on a large dresser-type piece of furniture. I turned it into several objects. Then my mother entered the house, and I tried to turn it back into the original object so that she wouldn't be mad. I couldn't, but she forgave me and went about her business.

I was then transferred to this grocery-store parking lot that was right next to a pond. There were many pine trees around the pond and the lot. I was taunting the devil. I tried to make him mad by saying that he was useless and that God reigned supreme.

He was getting more and more agitated. Then I heard God talking to me from behind. He said that I shouldn't taunt the devil. He said that the devil knew what was coming to him and to just leave him alone. I didn't want to, because I was having a fun time taunting him.

Finally the devil got so irritated that he sent a shot of fire out over all the people in the lot. Then he directed a huge bolt of fire at me but it did nothing. The devil told me that I was going to burn in hell, but I didn't believe him.

Then God came and sent the devil to hell. He disappeared and God came over to me to tell me what I did wrong.

God turned out to be my grandfather. He told me that I was "playing God" and deciding people's futures. He then told me to pray for them, and He would give them back their strengths and gifts.

I prayed for the people and then God and I sat down next to the pond. God handed me an acoustic guitar, and I played it the correct way this time: left hand on frets, right hand on strings. I was able to get a song out of it.

Note:

In a previous dream I didn’t play the guitar the correct way.

I'll do what everyone is tryng so hard to do for me.. what is god for you? black disc is what? a disc indeed - you've written about guitars before, do you play? you have power over /with them music, not in books (writing) do you want to write lyrics?? Do you feel this is a more important part of the song making process than the music? Having more effect on people? Is your grandfather religious, are you close to him? With god with you, you played the "right way" what did god look like? Are you doing something now that is playing with fire? As with the devil. does this kindle any ideas?

Hi Audrey

What a very powerful dream! So much in there for you to look at.

Perhaps the Devil keeps reappearing in your dreams because you are dealing with some "shadow" side of yourself or an aspect of yourself that you don't like!? The Devil can show us an aspect of ourselves that needs changing/healing or growth. Kind of, if we don't look at the bad we can't grow the good.

The part where you were in the large house - perhaps the girls that were in the house that didn't like you, are actually aspects of your female side which are out of balance at the moment. Different parts of your feminine nature which are trying to get to terms with each other. (Incidentally have you been feeling anxious or irritated about certain people (or yourself) in waking life?)

I really like the way your subconscious showed you the messages of magic.......... you couldn't do things "by the book" you had to practice/work your own magic by what you already knew or what you felt you knew!! Trust your instincts at this time Audrey, there is apparently a magic that lays within you (that not even your Mum will be mad at!!!) don't be afraid to break out of the confines of your thinking......

*************

The next scene in the dream (to me!!) speaks of choices and in particular emotional choices you are currently making....... - grocery store (lots of choices in there) - a pond near by (emotional choices?)

Now the pine trees - a dream symbol I've had before and didn't know why....... Jane cleverly picked up the pun on "pining for something" - what/who is it that you are pinning (sp!?) for at the moment? spirituality, an aspect of faith in your life? I only suggest this because of your ensuing fight with God and the Devil. Whether or not that are to do with a spiritual aspect of your nature or not there is a part of you that is fighting for good over bad, light over evil - by listening to your "God" "Grandfather" ie your higher wiser self you know how to avert the wrath of the "devil" aspect of your life.

Being the "devils advocate", can you see where or even if you are "playing God" in your waking life?

A beautiful and powerful dream Audrey!

Give yourself permission to shine!

I can definately relate to the out of balance thing...I've been out of balance lately, and I really haven't felt quite like myself. I'm not sure about breaking out of the confines of my thinking...lately, I just want to stop thinking and take a rest!

I'm not sure how I would be playing God, although I have been giving an awful lot of advice to my friends lately.

Thanks for the help!

This seems to go along with what I was talking about to my mother they other night. We were talking about magic and how it can come back on you 7 x's fold if you use it and that it could be dangerous if you don't know what you are doing. I said well if you use it to heal people like Jesus did. But my mom seemed to think that even this would not be good except if God had asked her too. And I said that Jesus had used his power to heal people, but not to his own gain. When tempted by the devel to show his power and jump off the building, Jesus would not do it.

perhaps you are trying to control someone to your personal gain? Or make someone do something because you think it would be best for him, but he doesn't? just some thoughts and suggestions.
