How to Capture an Emotional Response [S: Amina Mundi Dream Elixir, 1 tbls]

The only image I see is a live closeup of a woman's face. It is as if I am looking through a video camera lens, but I only see the face. I hear my words as I explain to someone how to capture an emotional event. She has some food in her mouth. She is crying while opening and closing her mouth. It is all in black and white. I come back to this several times in the morning dream session. At least once her image is in vivid colors. [Now that I am awake it is not clear how just a face could be so colorful]

Protect the Children

I am in a meeting in a crowded room with a group of military professionals responsible for working with a group of children. I have some very specific ideas on how this needs to be handled but am unsure as to how to express this. I am concerned about how military rank will interplay with the job that needs to be done.

We leave the room for a break. As we are leaving we need to take off our heavy leather belts and put them in a pile on the floor before we leave the room. I am thinking about how severe the punishment would be if we kept our belts on. One of the attendees comments on how he is surprised the old man who does this is still around. He(the attendee) has apparently been gone for some time and returned.

We make our way to an outside area where we will break. The way is restricted. Instead of taking an elevator right in front of us. we need to climb over a railing and climb down to the open lobby below. One of the men comments how well I did for someone in my shape.

We are out in a dark wet alley. It feels similar to a prison yard. Everyone is milling around. I am trying to get the attention of two of my colleagues. I am having difficulty. I am concerned about being overheard. I tell them to come with me to a more secluded spot. I look and they are not following me. I go back and get them. They follow me and two others as well.

I explain in detail my plan. The person in charge for the children's psychological safety must be the highest ranking person in the room, so there will be no conflicts that may compromise our efforts. The children have been traumatized in some way. they will be led through a long series of corridors, inside and out. I am slightly flustered that I don't describe the route perfectly, but get back on track as to the acute need for their emotional needs to be top priority.

Notes: Went to sleep at 8:30p. Woke up at 10ist.

What is the dream telling me? Protect you inner child as you bring him out.

What am I going to do about it?  Work with Leiza, show her the dream.
