Hello friends.
Last night I had a dream in which I was aware it is a dream. It would be more accurate to say that I was semi conscious because I did not consciously decide actions during the dream.
This dream happened during the day in the garden of a house with a swimming pool .
Strangers mingled with relatives from different sides of my current family , which usually has no relationship, but they know .
I saw myself there talking and playing with them .
Then I saw an aunt who passed away three weeks ago. She was lying on a lounge chair on the edge of the pool . I was in the pool.
I can not tell if other people around were also seeing this aunt or not.
While I was playing with a cousin she looked at me and spoke .
You are fine Wan ( Wander 's my name ) , keep it up , keep it up . And she repeated the phrase again.
Everything seemed so normal. And I knew at that moment that she had died in my world .
I woke up suddenly . Very pretty crazy .
These types of dreams are happening to me more often .
My father passed away almost two years , and last week I dreamed about him the third time , being in a state of semi - lucidity.
In none of the 3 times he seemed to remember me .
In hindsight now , also seemed to be worlds parallel existences.
The ride is getting more interesting.
Hugs .
Naste .

Hi Wan, I have dreams like that every other night or so. My Dad passed over 15 years ago and about maybe 5 years ago he would be in my dream as if he were still alive. My dad was a builder and I worked for him from aged 15 till I was 28 when I started my own business. When he is in my dream we are always working together. In my dream, I am never surprised that he is there and alive. I don't even think I have ever said to him in a dream, "But, Dad you are dead". It's like as you say Wan, like a parallel reality. Call it what you will, multiverse, alternate reality etc. Another strange thing is that my old man is always in charge of the job we are working on. I had 35 years being the boss and telling my employees what to do. I wrote about this here on Avalon before maybe 2 years ago.
Maybe of course he is in the spiritual realm where he has easy access to me in my dreams. He was always a hard worker, a workaholic. Not I. Perhaps is is saying to himself or others beside him, well I must get on with some more work, I had better catch Stan before he wakes up.:p

Hey Stan.
It's like you said. Only watching and things will happening.
It's like I entered the consciousness of another self in a similar reality. This other I do not seem to realize that I'm with him (I there). hehehe
My intention is to acquire more awareness during these dreams.
In fact I'm sure they are of a different nature from normal OBEs, in which I can fly and have control of action.
Thanks friend

Hi Wan, when I come to think about it my dad is quiet and I seem to do any talking. We don't talk, we just work together as if we both seem to know what needs done. Last night we were painting the walls of terraced wooden single storey building, a bit like motel shalets. He was at one end busy painting so I said I will start at the other end and we will meet in the middle. To be sure this is not a prophetic dream or an archetypal one either. A mundane one if you ask me. I must say my dad and I work more agreeable than we did in the 3D. We used to argue a lot.
As he was the boss and paid my wages every week he always had the upper hand, so he could be really awkward at times. He never ever annoys me in my dreams.

Hi Wan, if I were to describe my old man to you, could you when you are doing an OBE fly over Edinburgh when I am sleeping and ask my dad what is he up to?;)
He looks a wee bit like me. :o)

Hey guys.
My dad passed away in 2007. Oxycontin inhalation :(
However, even tho he was an asshat much of the time,
he tried to give me good advice in life, and warnings.
I've had two dreams since his death where my father came to warn me about financial disaster and life changes,
things in my marriage. He showed me details that were so specific you'd crap your pants if you saw how life actually played out.
Down to the interactions with my husband and what I am eating and how I am feeling.
He always knows everything lol! >.< Damnit Dad.
p.s. the creepy thing is, in life he was a dreamer, always reading books and running off, imagination wild... yet in the dreams he has the most power of any of my family.

Hi Guys,
I always wonder to what degree should I consider my dreams to be a source of information that may 'help' me to understand things around me. My dad passed away when I was 16 so quite a while ago. Before that happened I used to have strange/vivid dreams quite often but I never considered them to be valuable. Until the night before he passed away. That night I dreamed the whole scene of him dying in my arms but in my dream he eventually stood up and said 'I'm fine now, son'. So you can image myself experiencing the whole scene 5 hours later matching every detail...but this time in 'real' world he died in my arms. Crazy. From that point I started remembering my dreams and try to figure them out. Guys, try to always remember your dreams because you never know...

that is a very remarkable story -- I am sorry for your loss, but your experience is very valuable.
I am glad to know that others experience these things.
p.s. that could have been in Carl Jung's book, it was so accurate.. (your dream)

Very strong that dream within that context.
Maybe the dream was showing you that he would be fine on another frequency of our existence.
Thank you fifula.

one of the good ones that's easier to read is "Memories, Dreams, Reflections" by Carl Jung and Aniela Jaffe.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memories,_Dreams,_Reflections
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/4/4b/Mem_dream_reflec_Jung.jpg/200px-Mem_dream_reflec_Jung.jpg
Memories, Dreams, Reflections (German: Erinnerungen Träume Gedanken)[1] is a partially autobiographical book by Swiss psychologist Carl Jung and associate Aniela Jaffé. The book details Jung's childhood, his personal life, and exploration into the psyche.
In 1956 Kurt Wolff, publisher and owner of Pantheon Books, expressed a desire to publish a biography of Jung's life. Dr. Jolande Jacobi, an associate of Jung, suggested Aniela Jaffé be the biographer.[2] Jung was very reluctant to cooperate with Jaffé in the beginning, but because of his growing conviction of the work's importance, he became more engrossed in the project and began writing part of the text himself. In total, Jung wrote the first three chapters on his childhood and early adulthood, the chapter entitled "Late Thoughts," and the chapter on his travels to Kenya and Uganda.[3] The rest of the text was written by Jaffé through direct conversation with Jung.
The content and layout of the yet-unpublished manuscripts was heavily disputed. Jung's family, in the interest of keeping Jung's private life from the public eye, pushed for deletions and other changes. Those involved in its publication demanded massive cuts in the text's length to keep the price of printing down. Jaffé herself was accused of censorship when she began exercising her Jung-appointed authority as editor to reword some of his thoughts on Christianity she deemed too controversial.[4] Eventually, the disputed text (including a chapter entitled "Encounters" detailing some of Jung's friend and acquaintanceships with various people) was integrated into other chapters and Pantheon Books stopped their push for further deletions after Jaffé and others' protest.[5]
The book was finally published in English in 1963, two years after Jung's death. It has remained in print ever since.

@Thank you, Tesla_WTC_Solution. I'll order it tonight.
Guys, I am so happy to finally share this dream with people that experience and understand these kind of things.
Really happy to be here.
I had this incredible good dream a couple of nights ago, where I had control of my mind on the dream (which usually never happened to me) in other words I was not the "watcher" but the main "actor", I could clear control where to go and what to do (everything via conscious thought) I even thought for a moment that was more like a OBE than a dream but when I asked my mind to clear my view (by using "the clear now" thought command) to see things around me better it did not change so I have concluded it was not an OBE but a very lucid dream. Wondering if someone had similar experience before. It was great and worked as a good training for the future (archiving self controlling mind thought) as I was not afraid at all I did not snap back instantly to the body so I could enjoy a good ride for maybe about 2 or 3 hours earth time.

Hi Tes, That same book by Jung was the one I would say that started me on my spiritual journey.

You are far from the only one that are having dreams like these, mr OP. :) I'm at times having dreams that include many different ideas. Suicide, being a woman, living in a fantasy world with elves etc and so on. It seems to me that our consciousness go on other adventures while we sleep, and at times the experiences we have tag along into waking consciousness as well. The more this happens the more awake we might experience ourselves to be, since all these so called "dreams" are actually experiences that happens for us. Really the waking state is also a dream, though a bit more persistent, and we will wake up for it as well at some point. ;)

Here is Part 1 of an interview with Marie Louise von Franz. She worked with Jung and wrote many books about dreams. This is a wonderful
series of interviews and well worth watching, if you are interested in dreams

Hi Stan :)
I think my former therapist had the same experience.
Something must have manifested in his life that the book explained.
In spite of his flaws I really love Carl Jung -- some people say he stole notes from one of his girlfriends, ms Wolfe. @@
But it makes for good reading anyhow lol
p.s. the dream Carl Jung had about the Red Cross Knight is one of the things that's creepy to me. Because of a certain Alfred Lord Tennyson poem. "The Lady of Shalott" sounds a lot like Jung's life and analysis of the shadow. :) and he is the Red Cross Knight in a past life, maybe even Lancelot himself?
the year in Jung's dream seemed to match the Camelot times ...! food for thought
Camelot first appeared in 12th-century French romances and eventually came to be described as the fantastic capital of Arthur's realm and a symbol of the Arthurian world.
In the midst of this stream of people walked a knight in full armor. He mounted the steps toward me. He wore a helmet of the kind that is called a basinet, with eye slits, and chain armor. Over this was a white tunic into which was woven, front and back, a large red cross.
There exactly the same thing happened: when I looked at him, he came to life and moved his hands. So I went down the whole row, until I came to the twelfth century--that is, to a crusader in chain mail who lay there with clasped hands. His figure seemed carved out of wood. For a long time I looked at him and thought he was really dead. But suddenly I saw that a finger of his left hand was beginning to stir gently. («Memories, Dreams, Reflections»)
A red-cross knight for ever kneeled
To a lady in his shield,
