I don't know that this is the place for this, but, ok, move me if it isn't.

I'm awake because both times I went to sleep tonight, I woke myself with horrible nightmares. Won't go into the second one, it's too disjointed, but here is the first one...

I'm at a restaurant or club with my highschool boyfriend, Dwayne.

We are kind of intimately talking, in one anothers faces, and he reaches up, and slits my throat twice.
I don't recall much blood coming out.
Anyway, a few seconds later, my mom, who was apparently dining at the same place, comes over to speak to me, but I can't speak, as I had my hand on my throat.

*The wowser moment was this..
I did have a boyfriend when I was 15, and he was 25, named Dwayne, A LIBRA! Which is important only because I've been on here for a year saying how I've NEVER dated a Libra..
Anyway, one night a group of us were out, and some sort of fight broke out over drug monies owed to Dwayne, by a guy named Dave.
Dave tried to wiggle out of it, and Dwayne took a knife out of his pocket and slit his throat. It was not deep, he did not die.

Anyway, we took off in fear of the police, and I ended up running away and staying with him for a week at another house, because he thought the police would be looking for him in our home town, and he didn't want to take me there, and well, at 15, once you stay out all night, might as well stay gone (I was thinking) because the punishment is probably going to be the same. I was 15, my reasoning skills were not too hot.

Anyway, my girlfriend snitched and a week later my Mom found me.

What is weird is that I haven't thought of Dwayne or anything. His sister friend requested me on FB way back in the summer, and I accepted, and I did look in her album, and there he was, looking EXACTLY the same as I remembered, but that was the extent of it. I never looked HIM up, or thought of it again.

Why in the world did that repressed memory come out now, I can only wonder.
And what the hell else is lurking, I can only FEAR??

Anyone ever have a similiar experience they would care to share??

*I should add that I've ended a 27 year friendship with a girl I know. I am feeling road weary, as CPN said. I mean, my brain, body, emotions, everything, are just in exhaustion mode. OH, and when I woke up, my body was burning up. Not feverish, but temp wise, and I don't know how since my room was freezing.
Also, my heart was pounding, but not in my chest, in my STOMACH????

Wow Gypsee that's a hell of a memory to have jump out at you ... I'm guessing that the experience was more traumatic for you than it seemed at the time ... I think at the time you felt sort of removed from it and didn't make the connection that if Dwayne could cut someone else's throat he could cut yours too ... Now you are in a safe place and you can deal with that memory ... I mean you're a grandma now for goodness sake so you really are 'wise' finally, your unconscious mind has decided, ergo letting you know, o by the way ijit, what the ^%$^&%& were you thinking ????
Now having said that I can imagine myself in exactly the same position ... Dwayne sounds like a bad boy and it seeems very exciting and stuff ... But I reckon I feel that way because I'll never grow up and I am at heart an outlaw : )
You should write some lyrics about the experience / memory / dream ... my advice is don't push it away again go more into detail and remember in your awake time because clearly it's something your unconscious mind reckons you shpuld be facing.
I'm sometimes quite good at dream interpretation so maybe if you tell me more I could come up with an interpretation for why in the dream he slits your throat twice and the significance of your mother being there ...
Anyway ... wow. Hardcore. Scary if you ask me!!!

Gypsee, I am having lots of memories come up during the day. I experience a repressed emotion physically (mostly by crying) for about two minutes and then it passes away. It's done, gone, and I'm over it. I read a book that said most negative emotions should only need to be "felt/expressed" for a few minutes. Those who like to "cling on" to painful experiences as part of their current identity will vehemently argue this and I really do understand that stance. It is not their time perhaps to "let go."
I have had a few significant dreams which are more related to clarity and a sense of peace.

Something I've recently come across in an Esoteric alchemical healing book is about the deeper meaning in the symbolism of cutting. It does makes sense to me.
Cutting can signify a need for a deeply touching experience. An extreme example would be a person seeking repeated surgeries to satisfy that deep need for touch.
I was a "cutter" as a teen. A cry out for a deep need to be "touched." Just a theory, as a Virgo Ris. and with Uranus and Pluto in Virgo, our generation, it's only fruitful and productive to prune away the dead limbs off a tree. We are supposed to discard what is not useful. Dead wood serves no purpose to the living tree and hinders production of new growth. This tells me that cutting away has a good purpose in it's proper season.
All humans have a deep need for "touch" and those expressions are various. I personally think you are "purging out" junk that wasn't fully experienced emotionally at that time. Maybe your psyche "protected" you back then for a significant reason.
The right kind of cutting/touch is healing and this is Love and Love heals.

Thank You all.

Tink; write about it...hmmm, I hadn't thought of that, maybe I will, or draw it even.
Argg, thing is, now that I look back, seems like alot of the guys I've like were versions of Dwayne...Tall, dark, handsome, and dangerous, perhaps someone is trying to tell me to break out of that mold, but, Lord, how do you change what you find attractive? Seems impossible doesn't it?
*If you are good with dreams, please consider helping me in the Astral Realms forum, I think my partner left, and I am over my head!!

Mermaid;
I find what you say, especially about our generation, particularily interesting. Having had 18 surgeries myself.
I also have had 3 spontaneous past life memories in one night of my husband being responsible for my death, and I was either hung, or beheaded. Either way, it's trauma to the throat.
Everytime I get sick, I lose my voice.
Maybe I've never found it?
Maybe it's as simple as that.
I ended the friendship with my friend, and I used my voice (well words, it was email) and boy did I use them! Merc in Scorp does not mess around when highly pi$$ed off, and I had been HOLDING that in for THREE years!!

Honestly though, I am starting to scare myself because I have been saying things that I've always wanted to say, to certain people, and it's harder and harder to keep them in. I dunno...rambling now...need coffee after that night of sleep!

Thanks.

Oh, and Mermaid, I thought about what you said all day today, about this two minute crying thing.

I have been doing alot of that lately.
I was thinking it was because alot of majorly significant people in my life were either born or died in the month of April, but maybe it's more than that...

But, it's just as you say.. I'll think of something, cry for like two minutes, and poof, it's gone, and it's like it never happened, I don't feel a lingering with it.

hmm, strange, and interesting!

It's good to have company.
I'm always looking for the deeper meaning.
My husband doesn't get that about me.
He does keep me grounded by reminding me that "sometimes a cigar is just a cigar."

April is always extra strange for me, perhaps my 8 destiny. The doubling up of 4's etc., April & August supposedly intensify the experiences. The most intense day in my life has been 4/4, on a few occasions now. I now approach it well prepared, like a good girl scout, as positively as I can.

Take good care of yourself.

OH! Thanks Mermaid, I love it!
I don't know if I told you, but I've been really interested in Nodes lately, and looking up every one in my life, to see where their nodes are.
Amazing how many people have the same ones, that I am surrounded by. Fascinating stuff.

Hey Gypsee
I've given your dream some more thought and came up with something ... Oh and by the way I don't think I'm good enough to do the Astral realms thing because I don't work by dream symbols or something like that so I can't make a quick analysis ... It's usually when I know someone already and know what things that come up in dreams mean to them that I get ideas ... While I might be able to ask people more questions and so find out more about them and so on in the Astral Realms forum I am afraid I am really too busy and drained by my day job (stupid day job... if I won a million zillion bucks I'd spend all my time on Lindaland : )
Well your dream seems to me about communication because it's in the region of the throat chakra which is communication and judgement and I think the dream means (crazy as this may sound) that you've been holding back on saying something about something or to some-one ... Well the Dwayne guy in the dream besides being a real person from your past might also be a representation of your inner life and it seems like something wants to come out that you're holding inside and cutting through the throat lets it out ... This occurred to me because of what you said of holding your hand over the wound and when we hold a hand over our mouth in body language it means we're stopping ourselves from saying something or hiding our thoughts... ?
Or maybe I'm imagining things : D
So aaanyways
