Tombs and ruins

[Astir]

I keep dreaming about visiting tombs and cemeteries ages old...lately everything has taken place in an old ghost town or ancient city and I am by myself. Ordinarily this might disturb me...but I guess I am simply more disturbed when I dream my cats walk through walls  Anyway, enough about cat portals...

There is an undeniable nostalgia in these dreams, considerable depth. But most of all there is a peace in these places. The vivid nature of them makes me think I might actually be projecting to places. That I might be remembering people, revisiting the resting places of souls I once knew who have since left earth...perhaps when I should have. Or maybe they are still here but have chosen to forget everything, even the faintest...
The familiarity in them is strange.

Do you feel lucid in the dreams or are they an experience you just remember upon awakening?

Not at first, but then I become lucid...
I cannot read and do certain things unless I am lucid.

Why don't you go and visit a cemetery and see what you find?

How do you interpret the images?

They're familiar. I'm only puzzled their theme is repetitive. That almost never happens to me. So it's as if I'm looking for someone...for a name maybe. How a name could matter now I'm not sure. I haven't found anything that satisfies me yet. These may as well be my own resting places.
Maybe I'm studying dates...hadn't thought of that till just this second. That would make sense...lately.

[Awakened_Mind]

What makes you think you are there looking for somebody or a date? I think you should follow your own intuition on this instead of that from others. After all, I can offer many 'possibilities' but only you will know for sure.

Dates because I'm curious (recently) about the ages I have lived to be. I don't feel I've ever grown old, even though I have lived many lives before this. I don't think I can. It is something I've always felt. I'm not especially worried about it...I just want to know for certain.

Of course years erase years on a headstone or marker...I've learned nothing pretty much.

[Awakened_Mind]

Time is a concept not long away from revolution. Judging by what I've read, it will no longer be thought of as an entity that moves forwards or backwards anymore. Where it's headed past that point, I suppose I'd have to read more.
