Demon Lady? Devil Lady? Being Haunted (Dark Force? Dream)
Okay I'm not sure if I want to call this a dream more as a nightmare. Tonight is the second time I've had this "dream" and it mostly happens when I'm taking a nap. I don't know if it's that I don't get enough sleep or if I get TOO much sleep.In both of the dreams I'm in the house and there's just this eerie feeling about the house like there's someone outside watching. In the dream I call the police they come and don't see anything. I always end up in my grandma's bedto see if I can sleep but me being the scary cat I am I always think I hear or see something IN the house. Well in this particular dream I so happen to go outside (well open the door and look outside it's pitch black by the way) but before I do I wake a my cousin (who hasn't lived with us in years) to see. Whenwe look outside tthere's a mop bucket in my view which confuses me then I look to the left behind the door and I see the mop... but it's kind of floating in the air so that's when it "clicked" in my mind that this is not "man". So I look back to my right and there she is. I have no idea who or what she is but if I had to give you a guys a visual it's the lady from that one car "commercial" where it looks like a car just driving on the road and out of nowhere the exorcist looking lady pops in the screen. Well when I see her she's climbing the tree and I immediately start praying and singing Gospel songs trying to (cast?) her away. Then it pops up in my mind that my grandma probably knows more that will help so after going to get her and we start praying and singing together it turns from dark to very bright outside and out of nowhere there's a "suction" coming from my left pulling and she's being sucked in it's direction and it seems like in both dreams before she gets sucked away she pops in my face within seconds and she's like inches from my face and she's making me stare into her dark black eyes but inside her eyes are orange squares (which resemble a PlayStation controller button) but it really has me on edge and wondering maybe I'm not praying enough and when I'm trying to pray I'm at a lost for what I'm praying for. 😞

Hi there. I'm afraid there is not a universal 'language' of dreams which can decode the symbols for everyone. The events and objects are always personal, quite simply they have some significance and representative value to YOU and perhaps nobody else. There are some general and repeated motifs. Clearly the feeling of being watched combined with a belief that only you can see the threat (which is ignored by authority figures like the police) shows a touch of what is called paranoia. But don't worry too much, we all have feelings of mild paranoia at times in our lives. Perhaps when we find we are querying something everyone else seems to take for granted, for instance? Trees often represent life, and hope and permanence or long life. Climbing things (trees, mountains or tall buildings?) can represent a desire for greater knowledge (literally, being able to see more or further than we feel we normally can). Darkness represents fear of the unknown normally (bit of a no-brainer this one, eh?). It is very unlikely that anyone with no religious conviction would find their mind latches on to prayer or gospel songs as a support or inspiration, but perfectly feasible if you HAVE strong religious beliefs. You're on your own with the floating mop bucket...clearly has SOME meaning to YOU alone!! Family members pop up very regularly in dreams. So do figures and scenaria from the world of media. (TV commercials are one of the 'usual suspects' as they are often loaded with intense and quick visual 'hooks'. And commercials are repeated over and over again, unchanging. The classic way to worm an idea into our minds...it's what they are meant to do!). It is not a huge assumption to expect that the suction force represents a conflict, something is strongly compelling you in a certain direction but you are far from sure if it is the direction you WANT to be pulled in? Swift changes from dark to light (night to day) are often symptomatic of swings of mood and hope (light obviously representing knowledge and hope and optimism, dark standing for lack of enough information and uncertainty and fear). Familiar objects often appear, and a phenomonon known as 'simulacra' features. Which is seeing things is everyday objects...the most ready examples being cloud shapes and that odd tendency of seeing faces in figures in the trunks of trees. Again, it is nothing to worry about, we all do it. Do the PlayStation controller buttons ever remind you of eyes? Hope you might find a little light in this very brief outline and overview of dream symbols? Main thing to remember is that the dream is not any kind of message, prophecy or guide from the spirit world on what to do. But you might be able to fit some of the 'real world' things you are feeling right now into this framework of imagery and ideas. Maybe see how your subconscious sleeping mind could used some of these motifs to represent the feelings as it tries to 'processes' them? That is ALL dreams ever are.

Nightmares, as we call them, are only frightening because they have something important to tell us. We are much more apt to remember and examine more closely a frightening dream, than one that doesn't leave us on edge.
If it makes you feel better, try asking your guiding light, the highest source of love, wisdom and guidance in the universe, to protect you in its loving light while you are sleeping.
Before going to bed or taking a Nap,close your eyes, envision yourself surrounded by white, loving light and say, "I ask the highest source of love, light and wisdom to surround me in it's protective, white light and protect me from all that is not love. I ask that my dreams be enjoyable, loving and educational."
If there is a message to be relayed through such terror, ask the highest source for insight. There may be an issue you are not dealing with, or it could be a warning of some sort.
