Who knows. Its not imposible that some kind of cataclysmic event is on its way. There is a quite noticable clima-change and vulcanic activity is rising rappidly. Maybe you picked up on it. Or it could be just a lucid dream. Some of my lucid dreams have left me with energy surges and after-OBE or re-entry related sensations.
Interesting... I didn't read this post until now but this morning on one of my little OBE adventures I was interacting with someone else in another astral zone and while we were talking down by what appeared to be a beach we both heard a thunder and lightening and looked toward the land and saw a large dark column of cloud forming and moving toward us quickly. Something a little bit similar maybe. The person I was with became unsettled and suggested we leave. I was rather intrigued by it though. I said outlout, "I wonder what this represents?" as the cloud drew closer (it was powerfully ominous) I yelled up at it and said, "hey you what's going on? as if the dark cloud column were a person. It shifted it's direction then to coming down directly toward me. The shape of the cloud took on the appearance of a woman who's feet touched the earth right in front of me. It didn't attack me though but just looked down on me for a moment. Then it turned away and kept going another direction. I was a little disappointed that it decided to ignore me. Oh well. I'm sure mine is not connected with yours, but who knows?

A few thoughts and questions for you Linda...
The two children...How are you responsible for them, what is your relationship with them, etc.? Here you might find some additional insight.
The sun rises in the east...It could then be seen as the dawning of a new day/event/etc. The east is associated with the element Air and the season Spring. There are many ways to look at this, so you should decide what the east means to you.
The north is associated with Winter, and the element Earth. In the medicine wheel north is the last position and the east being the first. Of course you should look toward your own associations with North as well.
Buildings generally represent our thoughts, beliefs, etc. It is from this place where we find ourselves viewing the rest of the world. An apartment could then be seen as temporary or transitory thinking we are dealing with.
Windows are associated with clarity of vision usually. A two story high view is quite expansive. It seems you were able to see much more than usual.
The atmosphere around this thinking is highly charged...(Lots of lightening strikes)...Again insert personal associations. Currently we are dealing with some highly charged emotions, etc. with the world situation. I can see the situation as being represented by the forming of dark clouds. Of course that is my perspective.
The number four is associated with so many things. The four elements, the four winds, the four directions, and so on and so forth and so forth...lol!
A very interesting observation you have there in the telling of the time table in relation to the possiblity of it's prophetic nature. I would have to say that if that is the case your intuition is right on. Whether this is speaking of shifts in Earths climate or your own inner changes, only time will tell.
As far as deciding whether this was a dream or an astral event I will share my personal beliefs and you can make what you will with it. Of course your gut gave you it's own thoughts...wink, wink.
I personally believe the downplaying of dreams as unimportant is a blatant attempt by certain authorities to separate us from our own personal wisdom. Dreams for me are just as important and relevant as any consciously experienced projection. To me the only difference between an OBE and a dream is our awareness level. Dreamtime is seen by many cultures the world over as being as real as what we refer to being real when we are (supposedly) awake. And as more and more of my Dreamtime experiences take me to new levels of understanding I am much more apt to subscribe to those cultures than the psuedo-psychological explanations of our dreams by so-called experts of human behavior. No offense to you psychologists/psychiatrists out there who may think you have a deeper understanding of dreams than people who wear loin cloths and worship the Earth Mother.
Hope this sparks more insight for you Linda!
Cheers!
Chance,
I think your intepretation of this dream is one of the best I've seen. I agree with all that you said. [:)]
Great insights everyone!
Chris - If the dream is prophetic then yours and mine could very well be related. Thank you for sharing.
Chance - Great comments. Thank you for the interpretation - some of the comments meant a lot to me. I often interpret dreams for other people, but sometimes when it comes to my own dreams I seem to miss the point.
Linda.
I am going to share a dream that I had on the weekend. I do not recall leaving my body, but I actually felt the tremors and had a strong feeling of actually "being there" so I will post it here.
I am in an apartment building with my friend's two children. I am looking out the east window - there is just an amazing amount of lightning. I call the two children and we turn to look out the north window which is a tall two-storey high window. It is night time. I have never seen so many lightning strikes and so close together. I can see the lightning hitting on the snow outside. Then I begin to feel earth tremors. The tremors are very deep and I am sure that they are being felt all around the entire earth. There are about a half dozen of them - each lasting a few minutes with a few minutes in between. Then I look way far off into the distance and see a massive dark cloud forming near the earth and another massive dark cloud up high in the sky. There are four huge dark columns connecting the mass on the earth and the mass in the sky. I am pretty sure these must be tornadoes or hurricanes, but I am not sure whether they are touching down or not.
That is where the dream ends. I wake up with my solar plexus rumbling to reflect the tremors. I think the dream is prophetic in nature - but whether it reflects actual coming events or is symbolic I am not sure. Personally I think it represents actual events that are coming. What makes me think it is coming soon is the lightning strikes in the snow - the snow will soon be gone from around here.
Anyway - just thought I would share.
Peace to all - Linda.
This all was only a year and 3/4 before the Big Tsunami..... I however don't think it has to do with any of it... Coz cataclysmic dreams like that happens all the time, and ppl call prophecies... I dream cataclysmic dreams whenever chips are down... and many do. Ye the world is gonna fall soon, probably (like end-timers want so bad). But its not in our dreams... rather our genes... I cant remember a nuclear war or a planetary extinction, but somehow my dreams seem to portray it perfectly before me. Re-incarnational trauma? Ok, I wont impose any belief on anyone... but please do continue to post here coz this is intresting. (Yes I know how to intrepid dreams and how cataclysms is a symbolism and all that) but lets see here...

lol, I recently had a dream of tornado coming towards me, it was dark and with a lot of lightning. I said my family to leave quickly (we were on a vacation) but I kept videotaping it in the dream. It just turned away from us and faded away.
Surprisingly enough, we had a few tornados in our country a few days later (we just rarely have them here) :roll:
YES! ....If u live in the south of mid USA and that belt usually subjected to tornado's, a direct dream of that concern, would be likely.... but I live in NORWAY... there has been 1 recorded tornado episode EVER and it was as I imagine a lvl 3.... Norway is full of mountains... we had more cataclysms related to huge chunks of rocks fall into a lake and wipeout a village... that happened almost a 100 years ago (many ppl died)... other then that we are free of all nature (counting without the annoying rain at the west coust, and general huge amounts of downpour).
My point is that I've had countless dreams of HUGE mighty tornado's hitting a city... I don't recall them as nightmares.... Norway wont EVER deliver such a scene, unless something is truly bonked up and most of the world has allready fallen. Landscapes must have moved or such strong winds that most of us would have been blown away and died.
I think its dream symbolism which tend to put on a BIG scene to express itself, and its a HUGE thing for YOU.
Prophesies is sometimes true, but most are just "luck" Concentrate on your BEING instead of what you SEE in dreams, try to symbolize them.
Dreams are mainly messages to YOU. Not the world.
Most prophetic dreams or experiences are shrouded in symbolism. That is why many prophets are so ambiguous and vague.
I have had conversations with dead relatives who revealed my future for me, and they didn't go into much detail of when and where things were going to occur, but they did end up happening. I'm still waiting for my niece to move to California and my Grandmother unfortunately will pass soon.
Dreams evolved to help humans and animals deal with threatening tasks so they are somewhat prepared when and if the real threat comes to be. Ive had many lucid dreams of being in NYC as buildings start to fall (I dont know why they fall) but as the first one falls it starts some what of a domino effect that takes out many blocks. I try to hide behind a large brick building from the coming debris but the brick building stands no chance.....and I wake. I think these type of things are what our brains think are threats. We see all these incidents on the tv every day now... tornadoes, storms, 9-11, yada yada...
Since we're not primal beasts dreaming of being eaten by lions, these are our modern day threats.
Just my opinion.
