I ran fast. Steamy wolf breath warmed my back, and throaty growls grew louder as I dashed through the earth-scented woods. Although in a dream, I was lucid, and the experience felt real and terrifying.

I was a psychology and counseling student back then, and I didn’t tremble under the bedcovers when I woke up. I was excited. I knew dreaming was a tool, and our dreams were often mystical gifts promoting self-improvement.

You might consider disturbing dreams problems to avoid. However, in the world of mysticism, not everything is as it seems. Sometimes, revelations, prophecies, or ideas come with eerie, out-of-this-world feelings in dreams. You could easily consider such seemingly menacing nighttime imaginings as nightmares. But, if you stand aside from fear and delve deep, wisdom awaits.

During another dream, I was in a large, dimly lit building. Nothing happened, yet I was fearful. A strange, weird sense of doom hung over me. Again, I was lucid, and this time, I recognized that the heavy emotion only indicated I was in another space of consciousness than usual. Nothing bad occurred when fear accompanied my dreams, so I let it flow and explored the house.
