Dream 7 - The Enchanted Ride

August 26,2021

Today I dreamt that I was on vacation at an old lady's house, though I didn't know exactly where it was located. My dream began on a stony street surrounded by tall grasses, with four different pathways forming a cross. In the center of each pathway's small forest stood a coconut tree, one for each direction. I was alone and had no idea why I was there. I guessed it was around 7 p.m. because the half-moon cast a soft light over the area.

Suddenly, a strange vehicle appeared. It looked like a normal van but had no roof and was driving itself; there was no one behind the wheel. It was black, and somehow I knew it had come to pick me up. I got in and sat in the back. To my surprise, my satchels floated in the air and gently dropped themselves onto the seat beside me.

The car began moving, but I don't remember which of the four identical paths it took. I dozed off during the ride, and when I woke up we were entering a cave-like passage covered with green vines. It was dark and mysterious, and then boom—we emerged in front of an enormous grand mansion. Its aura was powerful, and the sight left me in awe. The mansion was magnificent, filling my vision with its impressive scale. As soon as I stepped out of the strange vehicle it exploded and vanished.
