I’m so sorry to hear you have these nighmares too. I had some people tell me they were a premonition of of danger (which did nothing to allieviate my stress about this), dream anaysis charts said that dreams of murder indicate a feeling of lack of self woth and confidence, others said I watched too much violent TV . I even spoke to a self professed Dream Weaver that said if I called out to her in my dreams she would come to my aid. She said I could manipulate my dreams.

This started me thinking. I also remembered reading a book somewhere, about the how the mind works. It said your mind is like a huge mansion, each significatnt memory is a room linked together by hallways to another memory (room), small memories are like closets. Some rooms are very pleasant some are dark and scary. So at night I would focus my mind on something really good. For me it was my grandmother’s kitchen. I would go back to this room and remember everything I could, the smell of her cabinets, the feel of the torn linoleum seats, where she kept her favorite coffee cup, the flyswatter, the phone numbers taped to the wall. Everything I could. Eventually I would fall asleep in that room and it was safe. Sometimes at night I would find myself thinking about my worst memories, but I purposly decided that this would take me to a place that was dark and evil ,so I would “shut the door’” to that room and go somewhere else. That dark room will always be a part of the mansion, but I don’t have to open that door.

Once I started this thought process at night I stopped having the murderous dreams. I still have bad dreams here and there but not the screaming kind. Now I try to add happy rooms to the house. If I see something beautiful I stop and try to take in as much detail as I can so I can remember it later.

Just try this and see if it helps. Your dreams can take you anywhere and reunite you with memories of loved ones that have passed on. And if all else fails call on the Dream Weaver, she was a beautiful voluptous blonde with a firey attitude who calls herself Ann from Avalon.
