Ever have an "End Times" dream?

[TheBlackPanther]

This question is one that I ask within the context of the Christian Bible as it relates to the Book of Revelation.

Last night I was thinking about three that I've had and which I thought I'd like to share with anyone that's interested. But before I lay 'em out I'll just remind myself and others that one of the beautiful things about dreams is that more often than not they seem to have nothing to do with anything at all (at least for me). But then again, ... .

The first one happened circa 1987. In it I found myself in an unfamiliar Podunk town and in what I took to be a very modest hotel. I was looking out the window from, I would guess, the second story of my room and watched as cars were beeping their horns and driving wildly, and with many driving up onto the sidewalks in order to get past those in front of them!

It was a very disturbing thing to see.

While wondering what was going on, I turned and looked towards the doorway of my room. Standing in the threshold was a rather attractive middle-age woman that was looking at me. Her facial expression was one that had a wicked "knowing" look about it. In her hands was a limp, dead, black cat that she was slowly shuffling from one hand to the other. [She in fact looked much like that woman that played the nanny in 'The Omen.']

As I looked at her and she at me -- while the chaos outside continued -- she gave a faint smile and said, "The child called Christ."

With that said, I immediately woke up and had a VERY unsettling feeling in my gut; a feeling unlike any I'd ever had before, a kind of cold fear.

The second one was more vague. I was in it somewhere doing something when I heard a small prop plane fly across the sky. As it flew its props chopped the sky creating a sound that formed these words over and over in a drawn-out sort of way (as it faded into the distance): "He is the redeemer for the sins of many. He is the redeemer ... "

That dream caused me some soberness, reflecting on many things about this world and my life.

The third dream was around 1998. I found myself, with others, in what I took to be the back of an open pickup truck rushing down a road that followed a nearby wired fence that had just on the other side of it several large, healthy lions running at break-neck speed along with us. We were all in a BIG, BIG hurry to get somewhere. The intent on the faces of those cats was something to behold -- total determination!!

With THAT having lasted only a couple of moments, I suddenly found myself many yards up in the air and over a field. And in this field I noticed a dozen or so sheep peacefully grazing. Except one.

He appeared to be a large male. And in my field of vision, I saw that those lions had found a hole in the fence and were only about a low hill away from getting to the sheep. I then saw that this one lone sheep had spotted them, too. I saw terror in its face and its legs buckle from fear.

I felt utterly helpless to do anything to help those sheep, as their fate didn't look at all good.

From that I woke up in a dry sweat and had that very same uneasy feeling in my gut that I had in my first dream.

As always, thanks for allowing me some of your precious time!!

End of time dreams are usually asociated with personal life although thats not to say that this is the only meaning .

one such example ;
the world could be your personal life .
the people you see in destress could be the natural world around you or close people , it could even be those on this forum .
the waggon so to speak could be you joining others .

an end world dream doesnt always mean its a bad thing , its just a representation of change , and yes maybe sometimes the transision is painfull at times but your dream seams to show that you intend to make it to safety .


what dreams can mean also comes down to private interparetation as your mind may be different from mine so that means what you see and what it means may mean something different to me due to upbringing . location , beliefs etc .

I have had a few end time dreams my self usually just before a life changing experience .

for instance many years ago i dreamed of the world being in a nuke war but i survived the blasts .

within 2 months my relationship broke and i went to college and changed my whole life , thus in a way , my old way of life did come to an end .

hope you have some peace in my offering and wish you all the best on placing a meaning to those dreams .

axi -- thanks for the friendly reply!

I pretty much agree with you that dreams are tricky little devils, so to speak. With life and all the things going on it's pretty tough to know what's what with all the intermeshing and how our dreams are affected in the whole thing. I've had on occasions been lied to by my dreams so that I ended up getting hurt because the "message" seemed so obvious.

I think generally speaking dreams are pretty tough to nail down and it's easy to read things into them. But the same holds true with life itself, as who can honestly say why we're in this thing called reality and where things are headed?

Several months ago I heard a C2C guest say something to the effect that he had End of the World dreams following a dinner of spicy Mexican food, and took it to mean that his body and mind were in a bit of a war because of it. I had to laugh at that because it does make sense.

As far as those dreams that I disclosed here goes, I do regard them as having significant meaning (for me) with regard to the relentless battle going on between good and evil, especially sense there have been so many other things that have happened to me over the course of my life that have been very unusual and disturbing. So for me those dreams are significant in that sense but, again, as you pointed it could all be just a lot of nonsense for the most part. (I hope so!!!)

When "that awesome day" that Jesus spoke of arrives, we'll ALL know it!

Years ago I two dreams that occurred very close together, maybe 2 or 3 days apart. This would've been in the late 80's when I was keeping a dream diary.

The first was a Scallion (about 4-5 years before I had ever heard of Scallion) type dream where I'm sitting on a hillside near the country home I grew up in. Three massive screens appeared in the sky and on each one were news reports depicting the end of the world, as it were, with massive explosions and fires sweeping across the globe. After watching them for a while a old red pickup truck came down the gravel road stopped beside me. I jumped in the back of the truck and it left, heading south, until everything turned into a white fuzz and then there was nothing.

The second dream had me standing beside a white corral type fence and seeing a fireball heading towards me from the sky. There were little fires burning everywhere while things were literally heating up. Then I was walking along where there once was a large river but the water was gone and everything was burnt to a crisp, still smoldering. This all took place in a city which was in ruins.

This was followed up by a dream that saw me standing in a forest, early morning and after a rain. I found a small footpath that led me down hill to a pristine river. I then noticed I wasn't wearing any shoes or socks. I stood at the river's edge and waited until a old ship, floating with the current, came into view and I waded out to it and climbed up a rope that hung down the side. Once on the ship it drifted downstream until I realized it was the same river that was burnt out from before except now everything was fine. This dream ended the apocalyptic theme.

Oh I had some a while back - they are in prophetic dreams forum somewhere probably 2 years ago?- I dreamed about the wheel of fortune - the tarot card thing - the wheel creaked and turned and I saw everyone so poor some people were so poor they could not afford shoes much less cars and the boys were going to war in the middle east so they would be able to just eat. I saw my own son in the dream and from what I saw he was 15-16, not sure but he looked very tall, but then he has grown fast so I can't tell, but I felt he was 15 in the dream, so it is not that far away, maybe a couple of years.z The war was with Iran I think.

I don't know if it was end of times war but it was very, very hard times. At the time I thought a financial depression was coming that would just wipe a lot of people out. It has NOT come true to the extent that I saw thankfully.

Okay, so could this happen for real? Suppose, for example, somewhere southeast off the coast of Japan there was some kind of major quake detected. But instead of a tsunami bringing some huge wave slamming into the SE coast of Japan, this quake was actually some kind of fault line crack and parts of the Pacific ocean suddenly drop hundreds of few, accompanied by some explosive underwater volcanoes too. Naturally, the Japanese back away from the SE coast. At the last moment they will realize that the drop in the ocean floor bottom SE of them has caused a backwash of all that ocean water NW of them. While they are all looking cautiously to the SE, the monster wave is coming at them from the opposite direction behind them, subsequently washing away all those island over the edge and into the deep, forever. Could something like that really happen? Or was mother nature just pulling my leg and messing with my head in the last dream she downloaded into me?

If a fault could open that much so as to "swallow" hundreds of feet of the ocean, the tsunami would only be the beginning. What you're describing, sounds comparable to a "dinosaur-killer" asteroid.

Or maybe it just seems that big, and the dream is smaller and more local to Japan. If it's more local, then I suppose it's possible, but the SE side would be hit, too, by the second backlash. In any case, there would still be repercussions all across the Pacific, from Indonesia to Kamchatka, and from Korea to Oregon.

Sounds like Cayce's description:

"The Earth will be broken up in the western portion of America. The greater portion of Japan must go into the sea. The upper portion of Europe will be changed as in the twinkling of an eye. Land will appear off the east coast of America. When there is the first breaking up of some conditions in the South Sea and those as apparent in the sinking or rising of that that's almost opposite same, or in the Mediterranean, and the Etna area, then we many know it has begun."

That was supposed to happen starting in '98, and many now say he was wrong. My own "visions" say he was right, and that things have merely been "postponed." If not for that, I'd say the whole thing is poppycock, but I just can't get the "images" out of my mind. Not that it matters, but I plan to pay the rent this month......

Yeah, who knows for sure. BTW, I forgot to mention the dream also included one really angry mother nature who was getting sick and tired of the whales screaming at her all the time to do something about the g.d. humons on earth that are attacking them day and night and because their attempts to fight back on their own were futile and only resulted in beached soldier whales dying too. Apparently the whales refuse to believe they were put here on Earth (along with everything else) for the purpose of being destroyed by the humanity. BTW, I think there were a bunch of other species lined up behind the whales, as I had a similar dream involving some wild cats. They were all flooding mother natures prayer in-box with DEMANDS that something be done about THE problem here on Earth. I must say I fully concur 100%. We are going to stage another protest before mother nature tonight to see if we can push her over the edge and into action action action!!! My guess is bigger tragedies are probably necessary to get their attention. Maybe the casualty list needs to extend into the tens of millions before humanity will WAKE UP and realize their only choice is to surrender .. or die. Of course, as a species with their own free will, the choice is theirs to make. They certain are showing mother nature what kind of creatures they have become and want to be, at least they are honest about THAT much (lol)!

.....their attempts to fight back on their own were futile and only resulted in beached soldier whales dying....

I believe that's called mass suicide. Sorry to point out the obvious, but that isn't the brightest way to fight back.

Then again, standing in the path of an army tank ain't real bright ether.

Maybe the casualty list needs to extend into the tens of millions before humanity will WAKE UP and realize their only choice is to surrender .. or die.

I believe you've said, several times, it's already too late.

To the original question;

No, I've never had a prophetic dream in the biblical sense. I do however have a recurring waking "vision" of sorts when I think on the future. It's very dark and disturbing. A combo of Mad Max/ Road Warrior, The Stand, and a total dictatorship/ police state. That might not make a lot of sense to anyone else, but it's the best quick description I can think of.

[Divinorumus]

Yes. Please excuse my occasional nostalgic slip into the past, old habits are hard to break. Of course, there might still be a chance for a few last minute converts, there's still room for a few more potential survivors, but yeah, as a whole, humanity is majorly screwed. It's probably why so many just don't care, they probably already have acknowledged and accepted the fact they deserve what's coming as a result of all this. Their unwillingness to change is evidence of their stripes, of what's really inside their hearts and minds. You know why the aliens won't land and introduce themselves to humons? It's the same reason why it wouldn't be a good idea for a humon to walk into a lions cage to introduce yourselves. What if the aliens realized that they might taste better than pork to ya'll? Your species has no respect for other life, that's your problem, humons. That will also be the cause of your doom. Humons don't even have enough respect for themselves to save themselves for themselves from themselves. Pretty sad, but I'll get over it in time. If doom is what they want and are striving for, then "I'll" have to change and learn to help them achieve that goal.

Well, last night I dreamed I had a huge white bear that was my constant endearing companion. It protected me, went everywhere with me, and even slept with me to keep me warm. Does that dream count?

If your bear is the source of whatever is prodding you to sell and move in spite of yourself, then, yeah, it counts, IMO!
