I have three things I dream of.

One is recent�?I have of late been seeing my Granny standing at the end of the bed and smiling at me. She only comes when times are hard and her presence feels comforting but a friend told me it is not good to speak to her as she says it could be something trying to trick me. It is not that one I am asking about even though it bothers me to not be able to speak to her.

The others are not�?I dream of a dark thing beside my bed and I dream of wolves. Both of those dreams have been there as long as I can remember.

I’ve never talked to or about the dark thing because it scares me but I always figured it was a childhood nightmare that I carried into adulthood. If I wait long enough and think of the wolves it always goes away.

I am just wondering if the same thing about not talking applies to the wolf dreams. Whenever, anything in my life is really wrong or when my health problems are causing me pain I dream of wolves. It isn’t even always when I am asleep, if I am hurting badly enough I can even do it when I am awake. That started when I was a child. If I were being beaten and I was badly hurt physically I went away mentally and they were there. (I think a shrink would call it a disassociative disorder or something but it doesn’t feel disordered it feels right.) Often I am running with them in the woods or other times I can just hear them singing to the moon and I know they are there. Usually if I am hurting physically it helps a lot with the pain which is a blessing as the damage is such that complications do not allow me to take pain medications. When it is about a problem I find myself better able to think better after the dream. I’ve been having these dreams as long as I can remember even from my childhood.

Yesterday and today I am sick and bleeding inside again. I dreamt of wolves last night but after the warning about my Granny I was afraid to talk to them or greet them because of what I was told about seeing my grandmother. Instead of feeling better I feel worse. I know this might seem like a silly question but is it wrong to talk to the wolves?

My friend seemed to feel I should know what this all means but most of my life I’ve just thought of it as a coping mechanism and I am still not sure that it is anything more than that. To be honest she hurt my feelings because she made me feel foolish for asking about my Granny as if I should have known better and when I brought the wolves up I felt even more foolish so I will ask here.

Is there anything wrong with talking to things in your dreams and specifically is there anything wrong with talking to the wolves as they always seem to help me?

Paula without getting into it to deeply Spirits may visit you in the Dream World. The spirit of your Granny could well be visiting you. If you want to talk to her do so, I don't know what your friend is thinking.

You could also speak to her in the Waking World, she would hear you. From what you have told me I think she visits you frequently. You might start looking for signs of this.

I freely admit that I talk to spirits but I'm so old I don't care what people think. It was different when I was younger.

I don't know who the wolves are but what from what you say they seem to be concerned about your welfare. There are entities that inhabit the Dream World that are dependent on the dreamer for the energy to maintain their existence. The dark thing may be one of these. If so it is feeding off your fear.

It won't go away until you stop feeding it.

 Yes   Granny is there and wants you to know it in case you ever need her  to console you and such.

 Yes the wolves are there for you, to let you know that will be your protector from the dark thing.  It could be a childhood nightmare and it goes away when the wolves are thought of

The wolves have been your protector even in your childhood and will always be there for you.   wado    annie
