2023/04/15 Saturday: "Gina's (Second?) Wedding Rehearsal Dinner?"

[Richard Silk]

The dreamer was in a kind of motion, as if passing by an event, with the sense that it was going to be Gina's wedding to her second husband (who would then be simply a fiancé in this scenario) and the dreamer feels as if (he, the dreamer) were simply "passing through" when he somehow became a "perspective" within the proceedings.

At this point, I need to put *some of* this into "1st person" because that'll be the easiest way to describe it:

I felt as if I was "within" the "venue" *feeling like* an uninvited (or possibly unwelcome, yet somehow tolerated) guest, yet the formalities of the festivities (the "social graces," if you will) were such that no one was coming to "put me out" / "show me the door" as it were, nor even "call security."

There was a distinct view of Gina's mother, Evelyn (who was clearly recognizable) along with *possibly* Evelyn's third husband (she appeared to be there with a mate) in the manner that Evelyn was seated near the left end of a (long) banqueting table, running left-to-right, with her back towards the dreamer's perspective, although she was looking directly to the right, so the dreamer saw her clearly in profile (as if the dreamer's perspective was that of the apex of an inverted triangle, wherein the table length forms the base, and the dreamer is about 15' or so feet back from the center point.) Her current husband was likely the guy seated to her left, although that bit was less than memorable (he *could* have been to her right, he simply was less than memorable.)

There was a view of Gina, seated near the right end of the table, as if she were aware of the dreamer's (my) presence (and looking at me!) yet appeared to be maintaining her relative perspective within the group of people at the table. She *might* have been on the far side of the table, whereas the mother was on the near side. (There was the sense that "RP" was there as well, but again, his back was likely toward the dreamer's perspective, and he too was indistinct, however, he was slightly more notable than Evelyn's husband.)

The view of that guy (not terribly impressive, noteworthy nor memorable) registered in the dreamer's mind as the groom (a guy who in real life, Gina's second husband, may be referenced as "R. Pascoal") although she (Gina) was looking at the dreamer.

About that time, the dreamer ("I") was considering going to speak with her, when a type of presence / entity / guy spoke to the dreamer ("me") in a manner that was sufficient to distract the dreamer momentarily, and it was as if the banquet scene moved off to the right as the person with the dreamer headed towards the left, and whatever it was that was being discussed (that was apparently less than memorable) fell away from any level of concern, so that the dreamer ("I") was again focused on going to speak with Gina.

The only problem was that it was less than evident as to where that banquet scene had gone. In other words, the dreamer (at that point) was unable to find her, which felt disturbing, and I awoke at that point. (Clarity 8-ish.)

Guy gets in car (fob issue):

The dreamer is sitting in the righthand front seat of a car-like vehicle, although to be retrospective, there were no driving controls on the lefthand position either, although in the Hebrew perspective, the right hand is of God, whereas in the British perspective, such is the driver position, although I was raised in America, where the lefthand is the driver's position. So rather than delve any further into that, what happened next was what "started" the action of the scene:
A guy just comes up to the left side and enters the vehicle, although this seemed to catch the attention of the dreamer, who apparently felt the car had been "locked," leading the dreamer to ask the guy if he had a fob (one of those remote devices for unlocking a vehicle) more like as an assertion / observation than as a question.

The guy acknowledged that he had a fob, and the dreamer directed that the fob be returned. "You can keep the key, but I need the fob."

At some point during this incident (what felt like an "intrusion") the guy displayed an open "Buck knife" (a distinctive shape / handle, with about a 4"–4½" blade, which the dreamer asked if at some point the dreamer had given that particular knife to the guy, or if the guy had borrowed it, in the sense that the knife was recognized as being one the dreamer may have owned at some point (and may have been missing without realizing it was gone.)

There was some type of response that may have indicated an affirmative response. (That bit was a shade unclear.) The guy *also* had a peculiar knife that was shaped more like a tomahawk, like a stick with a round, "steel rock-like" end, that was not only shined & polished, but also *engraved,* as if the flat disc of metal (about the size and shape of a *large* oatmeal cookie) were an engraved record of some thought or idea or event, etc.

In general, imagine the shape of the capital letter: P (reversed, with the pregnant part of the p reversed, aiming left rather than right) and the loop / pregnant / blade component as hammered steel, with the entirety of the looped arc sharpened as a blade, and the metal being finely engraved with small font.

I *think* one of the words as of "rose," but that's a bit evaporated by now (it's currently almost 2 PM CDT.)

The dreamer had the slight inclination that the guy was either making subtle threats with the Buck knife, while the ownership of the P-shaped knife was unclear (as it was being viewed as a work of art rather than as a weapon) and the dreamer brought forth a knife *similar* in appearance and shape to a classic Buck knife, but rather, had an extruding blade, much like one of those snap-off blades (or box cutters) that extended out of the handle almost just like a large, reinforced fingernail.

There was some *light* tapping of blades against the skin of the forearms, as if tapping to test their respective edges, although the dreamer's knife was designed more for stabbing, yet the sharpness of its blade could still be felt / tested / demonstrated within the dream, within the front seat area of the vehicle, mainly upon the (right?) forearm of the guy seated on the dreamer's left.

It is in my recollection that the guy gave up ("surrendered") the fob to the dreamer then exited the vehicle. The dreamer felt that a necessary objective had been accomplished, and the dream ended, clarity 8-ish, although it was as if the vehicle were located outside in a neighborhood street on a mildly sunny day.

Testing / science experiment?

The dreamer is as if a student (very likely at a collegiate level) involved in a type of process that is to be completed (much like a class / lab assignment) wherein a manilla folder / packet is being handed to each student, and each student is to use the contents of one's packet in order to conduct some type of process / experiment / analysis.

The dreamer, for some reason (sorry, evaporation, but it wasn't clear in the dream, either) either missed getting a packet or was distracted for some reason, and came back wanting to obtain a packet and get on with the assignment, but for some reason, seeing others seated out in an auditorium (much like a high school auditorium with a stage up in front) the dreamer was "left out of" the packet-procedure assignment. End of dream, clarity 8-, but it pairs curiously with this *other* dream:

Going to test elementary students:

The dreamer was part of a team of a few folk arriving at an elementary school (reminiscent of the front entrance of Reeves-Rogers) that was tasked with somehow distributing content to the students. Whether the assignment was to test, or to administer political propaganda, or to administer a medical-type purpose, is unclear. Dream ended, again, clarity 8-.

One can only hope and pray that the brainwashing plans of the blue ("woke") states in America (and the leftist, fascist, communistic type governments of the world) utterly fail in the red (conservative, Republican) / free states and countries of today.
