Reoccurring when I have a fever
Hello all,
I have a reoccurring dream that happens when I have a fever, like the title suggests, and it is really weird to describe but I will try. I've had this dream since my childhood and up to now. I'm in my late 20s
So this dream happens when I sleep with a fever of like 100+. When I sleep I see a majestic sand dune with a gold shine to it. The sand dune seems to be at a certain angle and changes from time to time. I'd say the angle of the dune is about maybe 70 degrees.
The sand flows upwards kinda like the wind is blowing it gently up. The sky in the background is this beautiful purple. Best and close description of it is Royal purple but on the darker side on the top, and lightens up slightly on the horizon of the sand dune. There is a yellow at the bottom kinda like the edge of a sunset where it meets a dark line. There is this very visible line on the very edge of the sand dune and its a solid black.
This is where it gets hard to explain: The line suddenly just becomes chaotic. Like a kid scribbling on a piece of paper making weird lines and circular shapes. The sand at the same time becomes chaotic as well and flows violently upwards and downwards. The sky sometimes changes to a dark blue or a shade of red that I can't describe, sometimes both.
I think the line does that when my body aches or something.
I also forgot to mention I am seeing this in first person.
If i remember more details I will edit this and put it under a (EDIT:) section to not confuse anyone. Thank you to anyone who can help explain this!

Fever dream or real movie or tv
So as a small child I remember seeing a movie but I’m beginning to think it was a dream.
This family (dad and daughter, maybe some other relatives or other performers)lived in a caravan and they were sorta magicians/magical. They’d go from place to place doing small shows to collect money and living off anything they could. (It was very dark ) But one day they meet this other magician dude who’s got their powers, but their even bigger and he can change reality of sorts, make old women seem young for a moment, etc. He begins wooing the daughter of the family even tho a boy who lives with the family (he’s not apart of their family tho, just an orphan or runaway) has been pining after her. The father is suspicious of him because he seems too good to be true, he’s also always been very protective of her. He whisks the daughter away into a fantasy of them being together and being rich and famous with a daughter of their own, but it comes crumbling down after she realizes he’s evil and using it to be destructive and deceive her. The dad can become successful like he’s always dreamed and stay with his family or let his daughter go and take it for herself. He lets her go and she runs off with the previous boy who’d been pinning after her, they run into their own fantasy. The rest of the performers go away to live their own lives and fantasies(self made Tho) and the dad is no longer a performer as his caravan was destroyed, and he is homeless or struggling and lonely. One day he looks across the street to see the boy, his granddaughter, and his own daughter. They
Don’t recognize him tho, but he’s happy. He’s happy to know their safe.
Sooo like if anyone knows what this is hmu, but if it isn’t real I have a book idea

I’m sick, and I think I had a fever dream last night
I was sitting in a cafe, and a character from my books sat down across from me. I asked him, “Tell me about yourself,” to engage in conversation. He just scoffed and said, “Bitch, you made me. Tell *me* about *myself*.”
I mean, it helped me figure out what he looked like and everything, but it was so goddamn weird.

Had a dream about getting tortured for money. It felt uncomfortably real. I wonder what it meant
Hello. I would like to share this dream that messed me up a little bit.
Ok so I dreamt that me and a bunch of other people were gathered in this place hosted by some lady. It was an outside gathering with a fancy dinner table located in the middle of some wealthy person's backyard.
The lady tells us that we can win a large sum of money and constant tax free payments for the rest of our lives if we complete her endurance test which will last an hour.
The test is to inject us with strange substances.
We could choose between LSD, something labeled HIV which would cause pain and some drug that would cause constant discomfort, sweating, the feeling of burning up and a dangerously high fever.
Everyone except me chose HIV or the third option whereas I picked LSD.
The lady thought it appropriate to torture me, playing into my fears while I was under the influence. She'd make me play this 8 bit game and add loud sounds of actual bombings over it, causing me to constantly panic. She'd play me music interlaced with loud screams
She'd have random men grope me.
I woke up before I won anything but I could still feel the sensation of someone's hands on my thighs and the feeling of being watched. Had to double check my apartment to see if I was truly alone.
I don't know what any of it means but that's the gist of it.

I had a dream about a god
To start with: I am not religious however I do believe there is a god of some sort
The dream I had involved god speaking to me and he looked like this:
Light brown skin
Rounded glasses
Dark brown hair
He was sat in a cloud
Is there any depiction of a god/higher being like this in any religion or am I just going insane and it was just a fever dream?
