An abyss can symbolize hopelessness, fear or despair. It’s a dark place where lives are lost, and in a figurative way it can express your feeling of being lost or hopeless. It can symbolize a hopeless situation you can’t escape.

On the other hand, an abyss can describe something that seems insurmountable. Leaping over an abyss can symbolize overcoming a seemingly insurmountable obstacle or difficulty.

Weird dream, please help interpret!!

Hey everyone! I was hoping for some help interpreting a weird dream I had last night...

My dream started out at a university, I was in a office area with many cubicles. I was introduced to an attractive doctor and was talking for a bit. I then was introduced to his twin brother whom is also a doctor and we hit it off. The other twin seemed more personable and very intelligent. I found he spoke Spanish and we have a lot in common. The other twin and I fell in love and start to date. My dream then moves to my house except everything looks bigger. The twin I am in love with is in a cult? of Satan and they are having a ceremony in my house in the basement at the base of the stairs... the twin and others are going to be joined to the cult by drinking from a caldron of liquid in the basement. There are hooded people everywhere. The twin and the others joining the cult are at the top of the stairs lined up and I am begging him not to do it because he could not handle it and he will turn evil and that I will go instead of him. The others have already made it down the stairs and I have managed to prevent him from drinking from the cauldron. Then some invisible force pulls me down the stairs and I am forced to take my loves place in line to drink from the cauldron. As I am waiting I see Satan sitting on his thrown and one of the hooded people make it known that I am to be his wife. (I don’t want to be... I want to marry my boyfriend) then it is my turn to drink from the cauldron, you must drink a certain amount measured by a chalice or else the ritual is not complete.. I drank a bit from the chalice and then accidentally dropped the chalice into a fire pit. I then had to drink from the cauldron itself in finish the ceremony. Of course I didn’t know exactly how much to drink, so I had to drink a lot of it to ensure this would be over. As I drank from the cauldron something in my head said to me that this will give you knowledge, intelligence and power. My dream then moved to a dorm bedroom like area where I am trying to tell my boyfriend about how I was to be Satan’s wife and that we had to get married to prevent this. Unfortunately, a teacher ( who is wearing a cloak) walks in and interrupts our conversation and I didn’t get to tell my boyfriend.

Some backstory:
I am not in university currently but was thinking of going back.
I am in the healthcare field
I do not speak Spanish

How I finally beat the "being chased" dream

Like many people I had the recurring dream of being chased by a dark figure, it was a shadow in a trench coat, no facial features just shadow. I began having the dream when I was in elementary school and had it until just less than a year ago. It always went the same, I was running through my house, or my high school or my hometown and he was always right behind, the dream would either end with me falling off a building or bridge or him getting right up to me and reaching out with a shadowy claw and me waking up screaming.

Well I reached a low point in my life, had broken up with my girlfriend and just had a lot going on at work and school. I was fed up with life in general (NOT suicidal, just to the point I had very few "F's" left to give). Had an especially bad day and went to bed, the "dark figure" dream started, but instead of being terrified as I always had been before, I just got fighting mad. I was done with it! If he was going to kill me then so be it, but I was going to give him one hell of a fight! I remembering turning toward him and charging full bore right into him, all fear was gone there was only utter rage, I wanted to rip him limb from limb. I had the general dream sensation of wrestling around...and realized I wasn't hurting him....but he wasn't hurting me either, he was slashing me with shadowy claws but I felt absolutely no pain. Then I remember staring him right in the shadowy void that should have been his face and just laughing, laughing harder than I had ever laughed. I woke up laughing so hard tears were streaming down my face. But the thing is I felt much better. Not only about the dream but life in general, my mood had improved a hundred fold. I felt ready to take on the world!

After that the dark figure made a several more appearances, but the terror was gone, I might feel a tinge of fear when he first appeared, but I would quickly get over it and stand my ground and think "you ready for round 2 buddy? I know you can't do a damn thing to me" and he would fade away.

Like many people I had the recurring dream of being chased by a dark figure, it was a shadow in a trench coat, no facial features just shadow. I began having...

A think I spoke with god, idk the dream was a bit wonky

I was in a black empty void, and then appearing in front of me, was a eagle, he had 5 eyes, and four wings, and he had a sphere in his right talon. He said to me “this sphere, that I hold, is the universe, and all living spirits flow threw it, but at the same time I am also the universe, so all living things flow threw me.” Everything went white, and when I woke up it was hard for me to move, and I couldn’t really open my eyes.

Dream about trying to contain corruption in Terraria, and then having to do minigames to clear it

Context: I just started playing Terraria last week. My world has corruption, and I have time and clay to dig a shaft, but I haven’t gotten around to it yet because I’ll get killed if I dare approach the corruption with the stuff I use.

Anyway, Part One: I was trying to dig two short pits to contain the corruption. It was all I needed for now, I’d finish the shaft before hard mode. (Corruption doesn’t spread on stone or ice before hardmode.) Anyway, I brought a shitload of clay with me (to keep thorny bushes from growing and reaching across the shaft) and headed down to the forest on the other side of the snow biome next to my house, where there is corruption. (This is actually what my in-game map looks like.)

However, I traveled across the snow biome to find that the corruption had reached the edge of the snow biome. I was surprised, for corruption isn’t supposed to spread as fast as it did for the amount of time I’ve been playing. And then there’s the fact that I’m not even in Hardmode either... So I started digging the shaft right away.

And now for something completely different... Part Two:

I was experiencing the same dilemma as before. Only this time, I was in a completely different video game. I had to do a bunch of mini games to deal with the corruption for whatever reason, but was woken up before the dream ended.

Context: I just started playing Terraria last week. My world has corruption, and I have time and clay to dig a shaft, but I haven’t gotten around to it yet...

I have ABSOLUTELY no clue and I’d like to make some logical sense of this


I’m gonna start by saying I’m classing this as a dream, because anything else Would make me sound bat shit insane. I don’t dream, I have aphantasia, meaning that I can’t picture things in my head so that makes dreaming hard. This is my fifth time dreaming in my life and it was different. With that knowledge you can see why I’m a little freaked out. I saw something, now I’m sure this feels like a “no shit” type of thing but I’ve NEVER seen something before. I don’t even know what to describe, it was just completely alien, nothing I’ve seen and DEFINITELY not humanoid. I could only call it an amorphous blob but that doesn’t even come close to it. So there I am conscious in a void with this... thing, and I recall falling asleep so not only was this a first for a lotta things, it’s my first lucid dream as well. “Hello?” I call then bam, it turns and I’m gone. I feel my being, like full on my consciousness moving into my body. It was such an odd sense, and I had to orient myself, moving, gasping, and touching everything to know I wasn’t in a paralyzed state just in case. I’m trying really hard to not sound crazy but it ain’t working, I just... it was an experience I’ve never felt, situations I’ve never had before, and I’m not even sure if It was a dream, though it has to be...
