Sylvia is lucky, her friend Mathilda is one of the dream interpreters I have trained and so Sylvia often asks her to analyze her dreams…, and following this she has been encountering some intriguing experiences.

For example how could Mathilda know that Sylvia had forgotten to take her pill ?  Mathilda didn’t know but the dream she interpreted knew it and came immediately to warn the dreamer of her omission.

Did Mathilda know the future when, following the interpretation of a dream, she suggested that her friend leave her boyfriend Bernard before he leaves her ?

Mathilda does not see into the future, but the dream does :

Sylvia dreams :

I see a beautiful blond woman in a swimming pool. I suddenly see her being “taken from behind” by her boyfriend and she leaves immediately after.

Interpretation

Mathilda warns Sylvia, represented by the beautiful blond, that Bernard is going to play behind her back, probably dump her for another woman. Sylvia should leave him immediately before he leaves her.

And what happens ?

Sylvia doesn’t listen to her dream, she is in love and wants to stay with her boyfriend. Two weeks later she faces the humiliating fact that he has preferred to share his bed with another girl.

Now let’s again consider the “benevolence” of dreams

Sylvia is unhappy at work and wants to quit her job. She would like to have a dream to guide her, but she knows that Mathilda is absent at that time, so she could not interpret it. Sylvia wonders what she should do. So she asks for a short, clear, simple dream that she can understand on her own. 

Her question is :

- Tomorrow, should I tell my boss that I want to quit ?

Her dream

All night Sylvia hears the famous German singer Lafee singing her disco song “Shut up, shut up, shut up!”

Interpretation

So she understands that she shouldn’t say anything !

So, the next day Sylvia doesn’t say anything. In the afternoon her boss tells her that the company is closing shop for two weeks and the employees will be on put on paid vacation. Having not been with the company long enough to warrant this, Sylvia is nonetheless given a paid vacation like all the others.  If she had quit, she would not have gotten this “bonus”.  She quit after her vacation.

How about that !  How can dreams know?

It’s “ too much” how they know past and future !  It’s really amazing how they prove to be right  !

Sylvia then decides to ask her dreams a question :

- What are dreams?

We will see the answer next time.

Meanwhile do you remember Nathalie’s incubation (Chapter 2; 02/16/ 2011) :  She made the same inquiry as Sylvia. She was so astonished by her dreams that she asked them several questions one night.

- My dreams, who are you ?

- Is it God answering in dreams ?

- And even does  God exist ?
