I’ve had nightmares after watching ‘armagedon type’ movies.. like Armagedon / Deep Impact (even though in both the earth survives).  I will have dreams that are similar to the events int he movies and it will feel like I’m living through it.

One of the scariest things that did happen involved Jeff Waynes version of ‘The War of the Worlds’.  I went through a stage where I would listen to the double CD almost continually.  Now those who are familar with the story will be aware of the Fighting Machines and also aware of the Red Weed.  I’ve had dreams where I’ve had fighting machines chasing me and I’ve tried to wake up from these dreams however haven’t been able to.. or if I did, I feel straight back asleep and the dream continued (eventually I worked it out to myself having too many blankets on in bed overheating me.  With the Red Weed, I’ve had instances where, it’s not the Red Weed, but lava (which is red….) has engulfed where I am and I”ve had to go to the roof of the house to survive, seeing loved ones perish in the dream as well.  Finally before it was my turn I woke up.. the old story they say if you ‘die’ in a dream you die in real life… how many dreams have you had where you have fallen and actually hit the ground???

Anyway, back to the thunder/lightning.  Well I had a dream that the storm was much worse and there were lightning bolts hitting the next door neighbours back yard.  I could see it hitting the ground and kicking up dirt.  It was really savage.  I also remember some metal which was sitting on our fence which was ‘attracting’ the lightning.. I don’t know how it came into it, but somehow a kangaroo made it into my dream as well.

I’ll have to find a book or something about dreams to see if there is any meanings to any of these dreams..
