I had the sense of a married couple I know in another country being associated with this dream. The xxxx below is the wife. She is an intercessor.
DREAM
I was looking thru xray scans, maybe slices from something like a CT scan. I came to a couple of the xrays with small hardened inactive growths on them, as though they were active before but no longer active now.
I was in a country setting talking with xxx about the location & said "Have you notivced the feeling. We were in front oan area with some large, tall trees, maybe cut-off with no branches or green growth but still taller than the surrounding trees. It felt like there was a spiritual blockage when standing in front of this area. I then asked to to move towards our right away from the group of trees in front of us. There was now a gentle hill & I could see down to a plain where there were smaller trees & said "Notice the difference" my spirit is open here".
We went back to the other place again & now there were some maoris there doing some kind of spiritual dance. (I was reminded of when I went to a spiritual warfare meetong once & someone spoke about cases where demonic spirits were in trees (
eg Deuteronomy 12:2)
I was suggesting to walk around the perimeter of the area praying. There was a man there with a video camera & I something like "Not a lot of people, just get some intercessors together". (I think meaning more quiet & low profile)
In the final scene I saw some sheet music which looked old & the pages were shiny like there were drenched or covered in oil.
END OF DREAM
After waking I had a picture of a white porcelin cup like we have at home here filled with water. There was a dirty mark on the bottom of the cup. I had a snese that the cup needs to be emptied, cleaned & re-filled but not broken.
oak/oan/own area... own/owned area...
right/right away... immediate
snese/sense... sneeze... I do not know how that fits.
Sometimes a pipe is just a pipe.
Nose is a major sense organ, unlike eyes or ears, it plays on more subtle matters which are in the environment and not always noticeable. Sound, everyone can almost always hear, Sight, everyone can almost always hear... but the nose senses things that very often can be invisible to others.
A sneeze can clear a nose so it can sense again.
In defense of "mistakes" is the above. A truly glorious thing, when a mistake is not a mistake.
Really awesome dream.
X-Ray - level of transparency, seeing through the flesh, into the flesh, by the Spirit. Tumor is like sin, like a cancerous growth. Some tumors stop and just stay there. Some grow smaller after they stop. Some stop for awhile, then just keep growing.
Trees - moving to new place, trees are core symbols in Scripture, and in creation.
From wiki: "In the
Bible, the oak tree at
Shechem is the site where Jacob buries the foreign gods of his people (Gen. 35:4) . In addition, Joshua erects a stone under an oak tree as the first covenant of the Lord (Josh. 24.25-7). In Isaiah 61, the prophet refers to the Israelites as "Oaks of Righteousness"."
They also mention oak trees as being symbolic of Zeus and Norse Thunder God Thor. Thunder and lightning tend to be godly symbols among peoples, though, of course, the Greeks and Norse people had little true understanding of God.
Oak trees tend to be tall and strong trees, and perhaps therefore often get hit by lightning because of this, I might conjecture. Lightning is a clear sign of power, as is thunder, and it comes from "above" and the "waters above", from the clouds.
Trees without branches may be that way from a lightning strike, or from flooding which had happened, or perhaps other reasons. A tree without branches is a naked tree, a sign of desolation, of destruction, of being barren of fruit and production.
High places, and trees, can represent high places we get in our heart on concepts and can not get rid of.
Sometimes, shifting places can get rid of such places in our hearts.
We make associations mentally with places, and in some places, we can keep negative associations until we change to another place.
Mentally, we can forget or remember based on where we are spatially. Somehow our position in space relates with our mind, internal workings.
(So some studies have discovered...)
Tall trees are an incredible sign of growth and beauty, often simply by age, but if not by age, then by some resplendent water.
But such a tree is not the case when it is lost its' branches.
Inwardly, we can overestimate our selves, which is like having a thought of ourself, a role, a glove, outfit that grows too high.
(After all, we are never really a simple thought or estimation. But if we make ourselves that, then we lose our dynamic ability to be our own self. Like a tree without branches and fruit and leaves. Without beauty. Without the display of life which is inherent in trees with branches, leaves, and fruit. Incredibly random, yet incredible form.)
Lower ground, down to earth, lower area, southern. A smaller forest can be more beautiful then a forest of great trees, if the great trees are barren.
(I am not sure if a forest of taller trees which are healthy is ever less beautiful otherwise, so amazing is such a forest.)
Otherwise, quieter, less problematic.
Maoris performing demon exorcising... kind of a wild action, dancing, but in context, what it is. Activity continues in the original place which is positive and destroying the high places.
Probably various psychological factors being destroyed in such a place, a renewal.
Sheet music -- another incredible symbol. Sheet music is written already, in fact, being anointed with oil would make it impossible to add or take away from...
Oil is, of course, the core symbol of holiness. In Scripture, it is typically olive oil, which was used for keeping fires going, keeping lamps going at night.
Gleam... shiny pages... is a symbol I had in a dream recently, where everything had gleam. We are starting to see more gleam in architecture, in cars, and so on. Older cars did not have this sort of gleam newer cars have. Gleam reflects the light, and can bring out colors, putting light to otherwise ordinary objects.
Eyes that gleam are full of light, one of the core mystical expressions in our otherwise very physical bodies. The more an eye gleams, the more light is in it. It could gleam so much, we could all change "in the twinkling of an eye".
Old music, like an old tree...
Already written, going according to plan, a symphony.
Not new.
That you wake up and see the cup speaks of a transition between dream and waking.
Dreams we are usually unconscious in, but if we are awake in a dream, we have a lucid dream and can change components in it. Nightmares we can change to good dreams, and as far as we have wakefulness is as far as we can change the details to what we would want more.
Waking life is like a dream, though it is much more vivid, and it is what we call "real".
It is also much more static, but there is a wakefulness in waking life we know as hope and faith that also lets us change things for the better. (I suppose, as well for the worse, but we are typically concerned with the former.)
Cupbearer was Daniel, and Joseph... looking this up... for some reason "cupbearer to the king" always made me think of Daniel as the cupbearer to the king, which, in turn - for a very odd reason - made me think of Gabriel.... but looking this up I realize now the word "cup" is not in Daniel at all.
Joseph is by far one of my favorites... son of Rachel, the wife of promise for Israel/Jacob... the one son of the twelve who had such a Christ like life... and one of the most amazing and Christ like lives in Scripture...
9 So the chief cupbearer told Joseph his dream. He said to him, In my dream I saw a vine in front of me, 10 and on the vine were three branches. As soon as it budded, it blossomed, and its clusters ripened into grapes. 11 Pharaohs cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes, squeezed them into Pharaohs cup and put the cup in his hand.
12 This is what it means, Joseph said to him. The three branches are three days. 13 Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your position, and you will put Pharaohs cup in his hand, just as you used to do when you were his cupbearer. 14 But when all goes well with you, remember me and show me kindness; mention me to Pharaoh and get me out of this prison. 15 I was forcibly carried off from the land of the Hebrews, and even here I have done nothing to deserve being put in a dungeon.
However, he forgot Joseph, and Joseph lingered in jail... until Pharaoh had a dream.... then he was the one who got Joseph before Pharaoh which got Joseph out of jail... key..
Anyway, the dream begins with a cancerous growth that is stagnated, it has a cancerous tree... the movement, the dancing exorcism may help it... the change in place...
And it rightly ends with a major symbol, of a cup which has filth at the bottom -- 'wash the inside of the cup and the whole cup is clean'...
That the filth can be seen and is focused on is good. Not a focusing on the outside of the cup, but on the inside, the heart.
Which focuses everything on the inside in the dream.
Problem with filthy cups is if they are full, then one may not know there is filth inside. Pharisee behavior does not help, cleaning the outside of it. But, if it is empty, the filth can be seen and also wiped out so it can be used.
Another key message in all this I see is intercession. I tend to not think of intercession. So, good reminder.
