PREVIOUS BRIDESMAID ENCOUNTERS
9-24-88 - I meditated to find out what my immediate future would
be. I saw myself at a wedding. I was surrounded by the bridesmaids who
were from all nations and wore pastel gowns.
NOTE: The next morning, when I went to church, the pastor preached
his sermon about the wedding at Cana.
9-17-92 - DREAM - I was packing to move. It was the feast of St.
Catherine or something because the church across the street was
celebrating. I opened the house up to party goers and a wedding was
going to take place. Five bridesmaids came in and lined up by the door.
All my relatives were there, including my sister who was holding 3
grandchildren on her lap, the youngest of whom was about a year, the
oldest was age 3 or 4. (Her only grandchild is about 4 months old now)
My Mom was there also at the gathering. The two other children were
called 'The Twins' though they were born in different years. They looked
that much alike.
1-15-99 - DREAM - I was walking in an apartment
building as manager. I was going around with my clipboard and pencil and
paper making notes of things that weren't working.
Besides being a good dream symbol, I was looking for
a working bathroom and only finding those that had no working toilets.
I heard some cops talking over a CB type radio that
they were going to arrest someone for smoking out in front of the
building. I thought that was a little extreme, but there was nothing I
could do about it. That was the Law. As I walked outside, there were
many people walking around the grounds...whole wedding parties. I didn't
see a bride, but bridesmaids in shimmering watered silk gowns that
actually glowed, walking alongside groomsmen in tuxedos.
I needed to get to another building and didn't see a
sidewalk so took a shortcut along with many other people through a
beautiful area of shimmering powdered white sand and then had to walk
through huge wide beds of gorgeous flowers of white and pale yellow
which were bordered by higher beds of flowers of rose colored flowers
and greenery. Only one problem here, there were canyons of green
that went way down into the earth and I could hear continuous
announcements over a loudspeaker to avoid those areas. It really was
dangerous and I made a note to have that fixed.
I said to myself, "I never appreciated
concrete." It was really difficult to walk through all those
flowers no matter how beautiful they were because I was in such a hurry.
A woman commented to her friend, "Won't all
these flowers be damaged by us walking through them?" I assured her
that they wouldn't be harmed. They were there for that purpose.
I continued on, searching for a bathroom and heading
towards my office which was on the 3rd floor was at the other end of the
complex.
Because I was way at the north end, I decided to take
the freight elevator which maintenance used. When i got there,
maintenance was working under the elevator in the pit and had light
bulbs stacked up on the elevator to deliver to places where they had
burned out.
I met several secretaries I know well from A-C and
Simpson Electric. They were on their way to lunch break and there was a
bank of food machines on this end of the building.
As I got on the elevator I had to really stretch to
hit the large blue rectangular button for the 3rd floor. The girls told
me that the 3rd floor had been remodeled. I was expecting nice...not
what I found.
I was really in a hurry because I had to go to the
bathroom so bad, so I was really rushing along. When I got off the
elevator, the whole area had been remodeled into an area where people
could gather, in a white cafeteria and get food. It had both little
white tables and a counter area with stools. There were a lot of people
up here.
It was past noon and I was anxious to get to my
office. Past the cafeteria was a huge outdoor area with railings on the
edges where you could look out tat the scenery. There was a huge
fountain shooting up water in the center. Lots of people were up here
sightseeing.
Where I was headed was the building left way at the
south end. that was all that was left of this huge office building I
worked in for so many years.
I finally got to it and opened the door. I hadn't
realized it was so far. I must have dropped my clipboard or something. I
put my hands down and my slacks dropped to my ankles. They were way too
big for me. I pulled up my pants, feeling a little embarrassed but
nobody saw me.
I was a little shocked at what this
"remodeled" office area was. It was
dark...stark...unpainted...poured concrete and a hard concrete floor.
The people I saw here were all 7 feet tall. One woman
walking towards me was overheard to say, "I thought they said these
were "finished offices." It was like the inside of a factory
that has blast furnaces in it. It was really awful.
I still had to go to the bathroom so bad, so that
when I met my old friend John DiTrappani who passed on in 1983 or so, I
just said, "Hi John!" and hugged him quick and let go to move
on quickly. He said, "I'm Christ!" (He used to weight
400 pounds) I noted there was a smaller woman dressed in a light blue
robe and light beige gown behind him. I didn't see his face. I said,
"I've really been wanting to see you for a long time, but I've
really gotta run." I hugged him lovingly, but quickly. He said,
"That's what everyone says!" I laughed and quickly moved on,
looking for the bathroom and woke up.
1-26-99 - DREAM - (This dream occurred while I was watching TV. It
began while Rep.Hutchinson was speaking about needing to speak to 3
witnesses about President Clinton and ended while President Clinton was
giving a speech about Pope Paul coming to the U.S. and thanking them for
20 years of service.)
I was in an extremely large building which I managed. I had a very
large ring of keys in my hand to open any locked door I would come to.
There was a cleaning job I needed to do with a mop.
I was on the second floor. I was looking for the correct stairway
to the 3rd floor. Some of the stairways only went to the 1st flor or the
basement.
I met some women I knew and at one point I saw out the window that
there was wedding procession with the bride in white and bridal maids in
pink with long veils blowing in the wind so that I only saw the veils,
not the women.
I went past two elevators full of women and took the stairway next
to it to the 3rd floor. I went to my apartment, got a mop, then went
down to the other end of the building to mop the floor where a small
accident of some kind had taken place.
I walked outside in order to go to another doorway to a hallway
where the cleaning had to be done. I had a silver key in my hand,
attached to the ring, ready to put it into the lock. However, when I got
over there, there was an open door which I entered.
I mopped the puddle on the floor and then needed to find a place
to put the wet mop. I found a place that had two drains and leaned the
mop up against the wall so the fluid could fun down the drain. I was
rather surprised to see that the mop was rather a black and red Scotty
dog sponge and much blood was running out of the sponge and down both
drains.
I then went back outside to go to the wedding. I had to cross a
huge intersection to get to the church. On the other corner I had a
vision or a memory vision of the veils through the bride and 3
bridesmaids had already entered the church.
In the center of the intersection were large cardboard cutout of a
ship like Christopher Columbus came to the Americas in and a dead cutout
horse laying on its side.
There was a man standing on the corner who couldn't cross all the
way over the intersection by himself. I offered my hand to the man to
help him cross the street.
We got to the other side of the street and I entered the church.
My mother was standing up on a landing up 7 steps. I climbed the steps
as my mother began welcoming me. I put my arms around my mother while
she praised me for sailing the seas of 20 years and serving the people.
I began crying out of thankfulness and gratefulness and put my head on
her shoulder still crying.
I woke up to realize President Clinton was greeting the Pope with
the same words.
3-17-01 - The dream takes place in New Berlin, WI. The
people are not anyone I knew there, but symbolic.
I was in the house and a pretty young blonde woman asked me to be
her bridesmaid. I put on a pretty white shimmering gown. It was
gorgeous, but I looked more like the bride than the bride did, so I had
to change my dress into something less bride-like so I wouldn't outshine
the bride. The bride gave me another of her dresses to put on
instead. It was a shimmery pale blue. This dress fit me perfectly
as well.
The bride said that she had a gift for the baby who had just been
born up the street by the church, which was north from the house which
was on 172nd Street. The house and the church were on the same street.
The bride showed me a beautiful pale yellow baby blanket she had
in a garment bag hanging in the closet.
I held the baby blanket. It was downy soft, and perfectly suitable for
the baby.
The bride's mother came into the room and saw the baby blanket and
got really angry. She practically screamed, "Nooooo....!"
In trying to describe who the mother looked like, the closest I
can come to is Cruella De Vil from the 101
Dalmatians' cartoon movie. Her voice was similar as well. She was
bone thin.
She wore black and white clothing.
The bride's mother reached into the garment bag and brought out a
fingertip length short fur coat, which looked like maybe Hyena ... it
was rough scraggly fur. The baby blanket and the Hyena coat had been
hanging side by side in the garment bag. She told me that she had
brought that coat back from California especially for me. She
tried to make me wear it, but I didn't want a fur coat to start with and
this one was particularly ugly.
She left the room, and the bride and I decided that I should take
the baby blanket up the street to the church anyway where the baby lived
with it's parents.
I was trying to decide whether to stop at another house along the
way and invite a man along who I admired.
I was going to walk to the church, but then decided it was a little far,
so finally decided to drive instead.
The bride's mother decided to drive me there. We got into the car
and she drove. In the parking lot was a pale blue car which kept trying
to keep the car the bride's mother was driving from going to the church.
It didn't try to hit us, but tried to block us from driving. She finally
drove fast enough to get away from the light blue car. I hung onto the
seat. I was frightened at the way she drove, but didn't say anything.
She never did drive to the church, but eventually got out of the car at
some point, because she was so angry that the blue car was trying to
block us and I had to drive myself there.
The light blue car didn't try to block my car from going to the
church, but when I drove up the road to the church. I had to stop at a
stop sign at the top of the hill at the intersection where National
Avenue crossed, and when I did, the bride's mother suddenly showed up at
the door of the car and pointed a silver gun at me.
I was rather shocked, but not particularly frightened.
The gun was right in my face but I easily was able to grab the gun
and wrestle it away from my face and get out of the car. I thought I
would break her arm as she wouldn't let go of the gun, but she didn't
pull the trigger.
I finally got the gun away from her and rather than punish
her, I pulled her into my arms and hugged her a long time. I
knew she needed the love energies I was giving to her.
The woman's son came into the room where we ended up. He was
wearing a brown suit, and I didn't see his face particularly, but knew
he was her son. It seems that he was a religious man. It also seems that
he was a preacher/teacher figure.
The woman sat on a bench and right in front of us, her face
started to morph ... her face went from old and ugly to younger and
younger faces, not all the same person it seemed, but young women,
younger and younger, and then she turned into several different
metallic-looking silver objects which I can only describe as kitchen
size garbage cans which continued to morph and change and got smaller
and smaller until the dream ended.

| Date: 6/2/2002 From: D@ xxx To:
phoenix-quest@yahoogroups.com Reading the post that mentions
Joel made me think of and experience that I had back in Feb.
1984. Maybe you might understand this after reading..okay...I
walked into the back door of the mobile home which led right
into my bedroom. I stepped inside then all of a sudden I had to
stop in mid tracks. I went totally blank in my eyesight I could
not see nothing around me and I was reaching out and wondering
what in the world is going on.
All of a sudden I saw me in what appeared to be a movie
theater and me sitting there in a seat watching the screen. I
then saw a woman I knew running, and trying to get away from
some beast like being chasing her. I wanted to help but there
was nothing I could do. The next scene, I am in outer space
walking over the planets in line, and if you look at a screen I
am walking to the right. I was stunned, and looking all around
me and looking downward etc..going basically WHOA! I then am
standing in front of the light wearing a Knights outfit standing
on the right, if also looking at the screen with a Bridesmaid to
the left and then there was a book, and then from the light came
forth a pair of hands that reached out pushing the knight and
the bridesmaid together.
From that point after being pushed together stood the
knight and then the knight held up the sword to the light then
brought the sword to the forehead then the heart. The knight
then turned and walked away as to face the battle.
After this point my eyes could see everything that in the
room. I was stunned by this experience and wanted desperately to
write about. Exactly 2 weeks to the day I wrote about it ... the
date on which the poem was written was 2-29 yes it was leap year
that year. Now you might wonder what this has to do with the
book of Joel, well go to that sec. Joel 2 and go to 2:29 but
also go back and count 2 weeks backwards and read those
scriptures and tell me what you think of it. Read from 2:14 to
2:15 up to the end ... and tell me what it is that you see!
This poem below was not the one that was written on 2/29
but this is one poem that was written later on about that
experience.
Walking through the universe
With time of the hand
Knowing of the mysteries
Of no other man
Looking at the stars
All planets are in line
Searching then the wandering
With footsteps that are mine
The time of the hands
The brightness of the light
The holding of thy sword
Reflections of thy knight
I as you now know am the Knight..if you shall seek then
shall you find the love shining through the soul, spirit, heart
and mind, the marriage of Christ to God with you..
shalom

11-20-02 - DREAM - I was going to stand up for a wedding as a
bridesmaid. The dress was royal blue and was knee length.
My ex-husband Ed was there and he was dressed in a blue shirt and
bluejeans. He was really slim and looked great.
I wanted to dress like him, but I had to be the bridesmaid first.
I tried putting on a shirt with brown pedal pusher shorts under
the dress, but they showed either below the dress or at the waistband
because they were the same size as the dress. It just didn't fit.
So I started hunting for a tight girdle to put on which might make
my butt and hips a size smaller to make the shorts fit better, because I
wasn't' going to give up being the bridesmaid.
7-25-03 - DREAM - I was going to be the mother of the bride
at the wedding. There was so much to do and I had to do it all by myself
because everyone else was too busy.
I had most of the cleaning done, but not all of it. I had most of
the laundry done, but not all of it.
I went outside for a moment and saw I was on a farm. The house and
cows were twice to 3 times normal size and I felt extremely intimidated
by them, so I headed back towards the house.
On the way, I came across a duck being chased by some cats. One of
the cats caught the duck and tried to swallowed him head first like a
snake does. I grabbed the duck and kicked the cat until it let the duck
loose. I pulled the duck's head out of the cat's mouth and took it to
the house.
The duck changed into a good sized baby and he had to be fed. But
I didn't have time to feed him, so I handed him to my ex-husband who was
there for the wedding. I gave him the bottle to feed him and everything.
Somebody had to help.
I went back downstairs to check on the banquet hall and got lost in
the hallway and tried to open a bathroom door and discovered a band
player with a trumpet in his hands messing around with two of the
bridesmaids.
The disturbance got them out of the bathroom and I found the right
door to the banquet hall. They seemed to have everything under control
and it was already packed with people.
I started to recognize family members and I saw that it was
6:30 p.m. and the wedding was at 7 p.m. and I still had to change
clothes and get dressed for the wedding.
I started heading back towards the apartment and outside, everyone
I ever knew was there, standing around, waiting for the wedding. I got
into an apartment with my ex-husband about the top button on my dress
which was really tiny and I couldn't open them, which I was trying to do
on the run.
He said, "You and your tic tac toe buttons..." So I
started yelling at him - "That isn't one of my terms. You must have
picked up that term from your girlfriend Nelda."
Everyone was staring at me now, with stunned faces and looking
shocked.
I start to grin. It felt good to yell at him and shock people that
I did it in public.
I started heading upstairs. It was quarter to 7 now. Three older
Russian women stopped me in the hall and recognized me and said they
knew me. I was their Manager at Juneau Village Apartments and they had
just moved into the place. They had a dark-haired son with them about
age 10 or 11. They asked him, "Do you remember her?" He looked
at me and tried to think about it. I said, "Think of Juneau
Village" and his eyes brightened like he was remembering.
But I had to get upstairs and change clothes for the wedding.
I went into my apartment and to my shock, the whole wedding
ceremony and the banquet was being held in my own apartment.
The banquet tables were around the outside 3 walls of the living
room and everyone was seated already.
The whole room, walls, carpeting, and ceiling was a beautiful
powder blue color.
I saw that the wedding itself was being held at the far end of the
room on the 4th wall and it was decorated with festoons and bouquets of
white flowers.
I saw two of the bridesmaids - also in powder blue dresses and
holding white bouquets of flowers getting ready to come out for the
wedding.
I still had to change into my blue dress so I could be in the
wedding party as the mother of the bride.
I tried to get through the crowd sitting at the banquet table.
There was a young girl laying 'ON' the table in front of her parents,
which didn't seem an appropriate thing to do, so I stopped for a moment
and sat down to talk to the parents about the mother, knowing I had less
than 10 minutes to change my dress.
Now I became lucid. I heard Joe start his car outside and I still
had to get up from the table and change my dress but I couldn't get up
from the table. I was lucid enough to realize I was laying in bed and my
sheets were the same color as the walls in my dream living room.
I thought maybe if I got out of bed and went to the bathroom which
was in the same direction as where I needed to go in the dream, I could
get up from the table.
Finally I became lucid enough to start moving in the real - though
I could still see my dream scene and get up from the table.
But, but the time I moved the sheets to get out of bed, I lost the
dream scene.
So the wedding is taking place right at this very moment while I
am writing this down.
