small children and nightmares (Page 1 of 2)

It could be lots of things.  Try more attempts at bringing up the subject, but do so while remaining mellow and neutral, not worried or alarmed which might make him nervous and cause resistence.  See if you can gently nudge him to divulge more details or keep you posted on any new dreams of that nature which he may be having. 

It could be a past life memory thing, like you noted, as floods have happened around the world and have killed people.  Or it could be a premonition of sorts - maybe he incarnated here knowing what the deal was going to be.  The pole flip/massive flooding thing has been prophesized by MANY sources.  The latest I read was Mary Summer Rain, in her book, "Phoenix Rixing."  It's all about the events to come (well, they're already happening now, as this book was originally compiled in 1984.)   No-Eyes, the blind psychic Chippewa shaman woman that Mary was training under, took her on out of body excursions to see many things...including the pole flip.  No-Eyes brought Mary to the vantage point of being out in space, looking at the earth below, and that's when it happened.  She watched the water sloshing all over the planet, first sloshing this way, then sloshing back that way.  It must have been terrifying to watch.  To see the whole planet going through that....wow.   What's worse is that when you read the Mary Summer Rain books you can tell No-Eyes is the real deal, and her checklist of prophesies for what's going to go down have mostly all happened by this point.  This is one of the last remaining things on the list.  One of the other remaining items has to do with the sky turning green.  It's a really puzzling bit.....initially doesn't make sense.  But No-Eyes said, when you see the sky take on a green hue, then the Phoenix Days are here.  I shrugged when I read that, looking up at the bright blue sky overhead as I read,   but then realized........

chemtrails.

Chemtrails do all sorts of craziness to the sky, including changing the color hue and of course the cloud structure and weather patterns.  I don't know if it constitutes "turning green" per se, but we DEFINITELY have a major chemtrail/sky issue going on nowadays, there's no doubt.  So that's one possibility anyway for what that prophesy means.  (All the other prophesies are very straightforward btw...it's not a bunch of cryptic and open-ended mumbo jumbo that could be interpretted ten different ways like with other prophesies, or like, a bunch of vague nonsense that anybody could come up with like, "they'll be strife in the middle east!"  "famine in africa!"  "lots of people in china!" etc.  )

Dolores Cannon also gets into the pole flip and flooding in her "Conversations with Nostradamus" books.  Long story there, but basically the visions entailed the same thing, and the world's population going from about 6 billion down to about 125 million when it's all said and done.

Synchronistcally I've had pole flips on the brain again this past week, so it was interesting to read your post and be reminded again.

Anyway, it does seem odd that a 2-3 week old would have been having nightmares like that.  I'm not so sure circumcision would cause that, as traumatizing as it is.  My brother was circumcized but he didn't experience night terrors as a baby.  That's just one baby example, and one example doesn't make it true for everybody across the board, so maybe it does happen with other babies.   At this point your best bet is probably just try to nudge more information out of him, get him to reveal more to you about not only that particular dream but any others he may have.  Make sure he knows that he can always talk to you about this stuff and that it's safe to do so (because you won't get scared and alarm him, or of course be skeptical.)    Keep us posted if anything new develops...

Try a couple of drops of Rosemary essential oil on his pillow at night if they continue and cause him distress.

Hi guys. Thanks for the responses so far.  I feel like I'm doing okay with keeping him open to talking to me. I always hate it when I hear of parents brushing off comments that their child says. I listen carefully to everything he says, and he's said some pretty weird stuff. Not stuff a small one talks about, for sure.  I think he feels that he can talk to me about anything.  I haven't probed him for specifics on the flood dream yet. I might approach that today. He did tell me this morning that he didn't have that dream last night. In fact, he says he didn't have any, except one where he had his own horse and we lived on a farm.  I wish that one would come true! 

But yeah, when he was just a couple weeks old and having night terrors, it just about killed me. There was nothing I could do. He wouldn't wake up and he was not comforted by me holding, rocking, and soothing him. That's why I call them terrors, rather than nightmares. Even now, I cannot wake or calm him while he's having one.  He thrashes and kicks and grunts and groans. Sometimes, he cries.  I feel so sorry for him. He may end up doing what I did as a child; just repressing the dreams and purposely not remember them. 

I've read about the pole shift and a couple prophesies that have shown the huge 'river'. But like I said, my boy has never paid attention to what I'm researching. I really do think that he's remembering past lives, accessing the akashic, or having premonitions. He's so innocent. He's not even been to school (except when we tried preschool, which didn't work for us) which is where most children get exposed to 'reality'.  And we don't listen to or watch the news, nor do we buy the newspaper.

The strangest dream so far was about a year ago. He had just woken up and came into the office.  I was on the computer. We did our normal wake-up routine (hugs, cuddling, talking about how he slept) and he sat down on the floor. I asked him if he had good dreams, and he said he had strange dreams. He said that he dreamt about bottles, really big bottles. I'm sitting there going, okaaayyy..... And so I nudged him on and he told me there were three of them. One had rocks (or something similar) in a bottle of liquid.  The second one had two different liquids and one floated (I interpret this as water and oil or something similar that separates). The third bottle contained one of our friends.  He said that our friend was inside the bottle with liquid!!  Okay, now inside of me I'm freaking out a little. On the outside, I kept calm and collected, thankfully. I have no idea what that dream meant. Well, I do have an inkling, but the thought is so strange and hard to accept, that I've pretty much buried it.

Well, this friend is someone I've known for several years. We've worked together but he is friends more with my husband than with me. We're just not particulary close.  He is actually somewhat awake, but he is not a truth seeker. I feel that we have very different missions.  He's not totally STS, but he is a little, and he has no use for emotions (whilst I have been an emotional basket-case for two years, ever since I started waking up).

Anyways, I say that to give you an impression of the relationship. My boy likes him and hasn't had a bad experience with him.  Well, around the time of the bottle dream, he was afflicted with other bad dreams with monsters in them. I had told him several different ways of dealing with monsters and bad guys in his dreams. One of the ways was to use his "taser" to zap the bad guy away, and another one was to call out "SMALL, SMALL, SMALL!!" to the monster until it got very tiny and just blew away.  So he was working on this when one morning he told me about a dream he had the night before. He said that he dreamt about monsters that were wearing masks.  He said there was one monster that he couldn't zap. When I asked him why, he said that he couldn't do that to our friend.  Apparently, one of the monsters took off his mask and it was the 'friend' mentioned above. My son said that he couldn't zap him.  Of course not!  In 'real' life, this person was a friend of the family. He wouldn't want to hurt one of our friends.  So he was very upset.  That really got me thinking about this person and who he really is.

Well, sorry about that; I didn't realize I'd typed so much. Just thought I'd share some other weird happenings.  Thanks for listening to my rant and giving feedback. It's much appreciated.

Oh, and thanks Barefoot Doc! I have some rosemary EO in my box of goodies. I will try that tonight, for sure!

They certainly have a bearing or meaning or can foretell future events.
Dreamt once my father, brother and sister were all caught for drink driving.
It was nearly 20 years ago, when we all would drive home from the bar, a mile away , in an almost empty country road.
Bad I know, I did it myself 5 or 6 times but  always felt bad about it but the familiy insisted I drive.(Yes, quite dis-functional and weak of me)
Due to the dream I stopped and within a week or so all three were caught for DUI.

Well, it seems that making this original thread has in some way, somehow, stopped my son's flood nightmares.  For a while at least...

Strange, but just a couple nights ago I had a dream that I actually remembered.  I was just about to wake up, so I must have been in deep theta at the time.  If I hadn't been suddenly woken up, I don't know how far it would have gone.

Unfortunately, it wasn't a pleasant dream. It reminded me off my boy's dream.  All that I remember is being in my current house during a raging storm.  There was water all around the house, reaching up to the bottom of the window.  I remember closing all the windows because it was raining in them and the water was rising.  Then my son woke me up and ended the dream.

I really don't know what to think of these catastrophic dreams. I hope they mean nothing....

I didn't know about the flooding in the UK.  At the same time, though, Texas is flooding, as well as Oklahoma I think.  Fun stuff there, huh?

Well, my boy just told me yesterday that he hasn't been dreaming at all.  I told him that he usually dreams, but just doesn't remember them. But he swears up and down that he hasn't been having any dreams.  So I don't know.

But last night as I was thinking about it, I had a memory flood up.  One that I totally blocked out for a while.  When my boy was just 3 or 4, he woke up one morning from a nightmare.  He came out of his room and stood at the doorway to the bathroom.  He looked scared and upset.  When I asked him what was wrong, he burst out into tears and said, "Mommy, I don't want to die."  So I'm kinda freaking, and ask him why he said that.  He didn't answer. All he said was that he didn't want everyone to die.  When I questioned him about that, he told me that he had a dream where not only did he die, but everyone else did, as far as he could see.  He was so upset.  All I could do was hold him and try to calm him. I told him that dreams don't always come true, etc. etc. He was not comforted.  He just kept saying how he didn't want all of us to die.  And this is two full years before the flood dreams, though I don't know exactly how long he's been having those specific ones.

Now this was not just a dream where mom or dad dies and he's upset.  He was clearly telling me that in his dream, everyone died.

Like I said before, I don't know what his dreams mean, but I hope they're just bad figments of his dream-time world.

Thanks again, everyone, for your replies.

I found the books for you Seeking the Truth.  The author's name is Maureen Garth, and the books are MOONBEAM and Starbright.  You might want to read the reviews on Amazon.  Reading the books to my then little one helped both of us with our nightmares. And it was such a fun bedtime ritual.  t.
