I was in the store (only it looked like my living room, without the Christmas tree). There was a fire but no one would leave (it was in the back, but Ariana was doing paperwork in the front, all calm. "Oh, there's a fire," she said, like it happened all the time). It was getting smoky -- but not hard to breathe, yay. I dream that I don't have asthma XD no, seriously, I run and jump around and stuff in my dreams ALL THE TIME -- I remember saying something about not having scarves knit (:::rolls eyes:::) but I could make my last one (for Tellah, wtf FF4? I've never played you) outside. We had to keep the alarm on, so when I opened the door, it beeped a few times, until the alarm re-set itself. It looked like dawn outside, but it wasn't really; more like the middle of the day. Issues with time soon remedied themselves. Yeah, lots of work people were around, but when I went outside, it was my front lawn. It looked a bit bigger with all the people there (Renn Faire, even though I've never been to one), but there was some sort of exorcism (the source of the fire; it was a ghost.... and this was all why the building hadn't burned down yet) going on. The small fire on the lawn smouldered and from the smoke -- which turned from black to white when I tried to get a looksee -- rose this small blue glow, which turned pink.
I tried not to look, but of course I was "chosen" by it. It flew towards me and I felt a weird pull from my navel and then suddenly, I was possessed by whatever this thing was. I was still me, but I started to rise into the air and floated above the crowd like a Venus-balloon. Not too many people thought that was odd. Evie was guiding/holding onto me, so I wouldn't fly away, but I knew where I was going: right near the rosebushes to give a warning to this woman.
I forgot the whole warning, but this was the creepy part: I gave the whole thing in verse, IN SPANISH (in a raspy, sucking, ghosty voice). It started something like "Ana Diosa (Ana Goddess? Maybe it was Ana Rosa?), venga con mi..." something something "Orange NJ." (Aside: but I had another dream the other night with "diosa" in it somewhere.... I forgot her name, but one of the flute players who got to All-City before I did -- I think her name was Christine/Christina... she was one of Lloyd's friends -- had "soy la diosa" on her flute lyre)
I know "venga con mi" is gramatically incorrect, and it should be "venga conmigo," but it was for the sake of the rhyme. "Mi" rhymes with "New Jersey". But it's perfect otherwise, and I DO NOT think in Spanish, so why I would dream getting possessed and telling someone to "come with me" in Spanish is beyond me.
So what was really terrible was the look of shock, fear and terror on this poor woman's face. Never mind that I was floating, but I was giving her this creepy warning in verse. She was pretty freaked the fuck out. She took a few steps backwards but met up with the bushes. She had to go to Orange and repeat the warning for someone she knew or.... and I kinda leaned towards the rosebushes and floated back down. Evie... disappeared? Maybe she was standing next to me. I told Ana -- in English now, whatever possessed me had left -- that she had to go to New Jersey and repeat the message or her friend would die. I didn't know how, but that's what would happen.... and that's when I woke up.
The Ana in my dream didn't look like my aunt, but I'm going to ask my mother if Titi Ana's middle name is Rosa. If it is, should I tell her? My family's very old-fashioned (read: supersticious). I don't want to worry her; it's Christmas. But at the same time, I don't want anything to maybe, sort of, possibly happen to Ti's friend.
But it's funny because while possessed, I told Ana to come with me -- that's the only part I remember, some of it was garbled, but the first four lines were clear. Unfortunately, I only remember the "venga con mi" and "Orange NJ" parts. -- but then we didn't go anywhere. The spirit or whatever it was didn't even stick around to give the whole warning.
I woke up when I told Ana her friend would die if she didn't motor. I felt bad because I couldn't help her figure out the meaning of the warning and even if I could, I wouldn't be able to tell her because my awesome Spanish skills were gone.
And just that abruptly, it was over. o_o; Going back to sleep now.
