2018-01-05 NSDRM - Dream Explorations: Jed (with Don as Midwife) and Julie (with Jed as Midwife)
Jed explores a dream with Don as midwife, and JulieH explores a dream with Jed as midwife (with help from Pierre in both cases). [Clips are a bit choppy at the beginning: I turned the camera off several times, when we were getting set up / working on logistics, and when there was nothing else going on while we were reading/studying the dream.  I just didn't have enough time to put into fading the clips in and out. -JS] Jed's dream (Friday 5th January 2018) I just became president. I entered a courtyard full of the ex presidents. There was George Bush Snr, and others. I was the new guy, younger, they all seemed to have a apathetic state of mind towards me, for being new, and the older ex presidents seemed cranky about things. Older, angrier, jaded, apathy or slight discust or patronising towards the new guy. I was wondering, "are they going to push me around". They seemed jaded. Someone was in the desert, which boarders the city, which we were close to, and they were screaming "16" over and over again. Then he said "i need to use the bathroom" but in a strange way. Two presidents were moving towards me, slow, hirtless, like candy, weak, empty. I thought that maybe it was the guy near me who said he needed to use the bathroom who was the one using the person yelling "16" to distract everyone to allow me to escape, as everyone started to "gravitate" towards the desert border, moving slowly, turning their gaze and walking towards the border where the desert was on the other side. --- A giant crane dropped a big ship, the shape of a train but with a big point, like a spear or the nose of a Narwal, into the water. It was alongside a bridge and a train identical to it on the tracks of that bridge. I was surprised by the hight they dropped it from, it seemed like an unecessary risk. It spashed down and it was ok.  It didnt hit like a ton of bricks, against an unforgiving ocean surface, the water splashed up and enveloped it nicely. I thought "they must have made very careful calculations for this exercise, it must be a risk free according to physics and math to drop from that height" The ship started to sink and found it a little funny, that they just dropped it into the ocean to sink to the bottom, with no crew inside. I thought the logistics of boarding the craft from the bottom of the ocean would be unecessarily expensive and complicated, they must have men in the ship already. --- They are construsting a river. I can see from a birds eye the stream of water of the ocean that goes over the road bridge to the other side, where there are more roads for it to cross. They are excited about the posibilities they will be able to explore now that they have been able to construct a straight line path for the river. ---- There were two guys, short, thin, older, around 50. They had no shirt on, perhaps a wetsuit folded down at the waist. I was wondering why they were eating so much junk food and enjoying it so much. Then i saw they/we were walking down into a submarine type underwater ship. Its a rare thing for them, to be on land and able to eat this sort of food, so they are indulging themselves before they go back out to sea. It made more sense to me why they were eating so much, and enjoying so much. JulieH's dream Jan 5th, 2018 – 5:22 a.m. I was – umm, there was a big party for employees.  And it was holiday.  And various employers were asking their workers to attend.  It was by invitation only.  And so, in this case, I had been invited.  Oh no, Tony had been invited by his employer and, yea, so I guess it was a 2 step process.  First you got chosen by your employer and then there was an event, just for being recognized for that.  And I was with Tony when he got that, at that recognition event.  There was one guy who was chosen by his employer; he wasn’t at the event.  And, somebody mentioned that he was considering suicide, or something or there was something about that.  So, then, after the event, Tony and I and Mary Louise (used to be a professor in Cog Sci at UCI) we were walking together from our cars, walking across the street.  It was dark.  I saw a pathway up to the school, like this highschool or some brick building and I recommended, hey, we can go up here, but I think they kind of balked at the idea; they had their own way to go and I was, didn’t think, and so I just followed after them.  “actually invited to come to this because of the absence of the guy who they had talked about the suicide.  And we were all sitting like at this long table; there were maybe 50 of us.  And, lo and behold, I’m sitting next to the guy who was potential suicide.  And I said something to him, like, “Well, welcome, good to see you tonight.   And then I asked him a question, I asked if what he thought was the factor that deterred him, that made him change his mind or deterred him from taking his life.  And I had some thoughts after
