Sword combat training in golden armor

I've had a reoccurring dream, and flashes of it pop up in meditation...

On a beach, the sun is just rising above the ocean's horizon. Loaded out in full golden armor and being taught by an unfamiliar man in similar, but more elegant, armor. He's walking me through sword technique, very slow mock sparring so I get the motions down. It feels like we've done this before because it's like a warm up or ritual we do before turning up things a notch and increasing the speed and intensity.

His blows start to come in harder, more directed and backed with intent to do harm. He's frustrated or angry with my performance. "You know this!" "Fight! Fight like you want to live!" "Fight with everything you have, your life will depend on it!" All I can do is block what's coming in, I don't know how to press an advance or take the offensive to win.

I either wake up here or time flashes forward to the day's end. He's talking to me like a teacher, or mentor would. "You've got the heart, your spirit is strong.... take in the light and wield it. You're a warrior for us." At this point he either flashes out in a bright golden light or I wake up just as he slaps his hand on my back.

Help with a dream.

I had a dream last night that I woke up an ancient warrior by destroying a large boulder. I can’t remember if the boulder had any markings or not, but he looked just like me, save for far darker hair, and he had armor that didn’t look like anything historically proven to be worn by any culture.

As I journeyed with him, he kept saying something about “the blood of dragons”. I feel like it does mean something, but I don’t know where to actually begin in terms of figuring it out.

The Devil Himself Has His Weaknesses

This dream was rather choppy and incomplete, so I'll just write down what I remember. It started with me in this blue, dimly lit hallway and after turning the corner, I come across my old family cat. Before I can reach out to pet her, she unleashes hell on me and starts attacking. I panic, but before I could react, I wound up in my house. My mother was shouting at me and throwing blunt objects at me from the second floor. It wasn't implied, but I could feel that she wanted to kill me. Eventually I wake up in a room that looked like my living room but colored red. It looked like a nightclub with its neon lighting and dim atmosphere. At one side of the room is a throne with who I assume was the devil sitting on top. He sent me to go work on something, and on the way there, I came across a note on the floor. It read, "Revolt. Look up." and when I looked up, there was a brick-sized box attached to the ceiling of the hallway I was in. I grabbed the box and scribbled on the front was, "Put behind throne then press the blue button." I snuck into the throne room when the devil wasn't there, and I placed the box behind the throne and pressed the blue button. I went back to work and before long, I heard shooting and shouting, so I ran to see what was happening. I entered the throne room and three guys dressed in Ghostbuster-like armor were wielding sparking rifles and standing over the toppled body of the devil. They look at me and I ask, "What happened?" and they respond, "We're getting you and everyone esle outta here." They start running down the hall as I trail behind them. I then asked, "How did you pull this off?" to which one guy replied, "Hey, even the Devil himself has his weaknesses." I woke up shortly after. I guess that I went to some modernized version of hell, where before you get to work for eternity, you have to witness your loved ones turning against you. I would love to hear any comments about this dream.
