Dream-diary, June 2019



May 31st-June 1st (Fri-Satur) 2019 :- Dream : I had been informed (in the dream) that our webhosting company (for our online website) had undertaken some major simplification in regard to the technique of uploading onto the internet; so I was involved in a process of endeavouring to figure out what this simplification might entail in regard to configurations of weblinking. I was hesitant to surmise, however, without adequate instruction.


June 5th (Wedn, somewhat after noon [I had fallen asleep during the daytime because I had slept very little during the praeceding night, (partly because of my staying awaking during the night inorder to complete and upload onto the internet my notes from a chapter of the book Yogic Perception; but) mainly because I was excited at the prospect of my receiving to-morrow, via Amazon.com, two foods stated to be especially beneficial to the health (in rejuvenating experimental animals, and in curing many major degenerative ailments, etc.), neither of which foods I had partaken of praeviously (: they are chaparral leaf and baobab fruit)]) 2019 :- Dream : In my apartment, I was describing aloud certain recent actions of mine which seemed to me of occult significance, thinking, while I was describing aloud these actions, that divine entities were being gratified by their hearing my audible account of these actions. In that dream, I felt sensations which assisted me in my choice of wordcraft for the descriptions, and I felt that these sensations were divinely-provided guidance in assisting me to fashion phraseology most pleasing to the divinities invisibly hearing my audible account. At one point in this soliloquy, I felt a sensation requiring me to affirm that which I had just recounted by uttering : "It is true!" Immediately upon my saying this aloud, I heard (in the dream), through the apartment's door into the hallway, the voices of two women, commenting on that which they had overheard of my narrative. [Then I awoke.] [While I was in in the process of typing this, various screens offering selections in typing anomalously repeatedly appeared over my typescript (a sort of praedicament I do not recall experiencing ever before) -- I took this sort of unsolicited computer-activity to be signs manifested by gremlins influencing the computer's typying-program, intended to indicate that those gremlins are quite interested in the sensations occurring during my dreaming, sensations being divinely induced so as to guide me in my prayer-resembling dream-soliloquy.] {Postscript : When I did receive the alleged herbs the next day, they turned out to be falsely labeled fakes which actually were of some quite different species, as could be seen from lack of the appropriate color and odor of one, and from the wrong region of the continent (where it cannot grow) of the other one. Upon my more diligently searching on the internet, I did afterwards find the genuine species of each for sale, the one (creosote) for sale for at least ten times the price (labeled a rare herb, almost prohibitively expensive), and the other (baobab) to be actually lacking any longevity-promoting features.}


June 8th-9th (Satur-Sun) 2019 :- Dream : I was ordering herbs via mail-order. {On the day praevious (June 8th), I had received, via mail-order, a package of herbs from World Seed Supply (at www.World SeedSupply.com; having available for sale the largest variety of herbs of any company which I have examined); all these herbs thus received were of species which I had not thitherto tried out (except for one species whereof I had tried out the seed, but now received the leaf) : Canavalia maritima (the leaf mentioned), Pedicularis racemosa, Combretum quadrangulare, Calliandra angustifolia.}


June 9th-10th (Sun-Mon) 2019 :- Dream : I was reading about how to activate the magical powers of herbs through the mythology of personifications of herbs. {I have been recently, while awake, endeavouring to understand the mythologies of personifications of herbs in terms of activations of magical powers inhaerent in herbs.}


June 10th-11th (Mon-Tue) 2019 :- Apparently, a dream while begining to awaken : I was thinking that I needed to type up and upload onto my website information on a certain herb (of which I aleady had the name) which is to be taken along with other herbs about which I had already written. [But after I awoke, I could not think of any herb which might match that description.]


June 14th-15th (Fri-Satur) 2019 :- Dream : I was reading on the internet about an herb called "Pterodactyl", and was seeking more information about it. {When I awoke, I realized that the herb intended must be Pterocarpus marsupium -- about which I had been recently wondring, because I saw a pouch of its powder (under its Hindi name "Vijaysar", bought years earlier; I had since forgotten what its health-value was) in my refrigerator's freezer. Reading now about it on the internet (on this occasion, while awake), it is found to be rich in pterostilbene, advantageous as a nutritional supplement.}


June 16th -- not a dream : I realized that I had forgotten (for several days) about the herbs received by mail-order on June 8th. So as to keep them in mind (and ingest them daily), I now started o keep them on display on my kitchen-counter; and added them to the checklist (of some 25 herbs and nutritive substances, largely ingested as pills) to be referred to (and when ingested, checked off -- generally these [commencing with aminos] are ingested with digestive substances [lemon, spices, and with ordinary foods the herbal bitters]) daily. I also noticed that the capsules which I had of 5-HTP were for merely 50mg (I had already sent for and received the L-tyrosine which must be ingested along with it in order to secure its nutritive benefit for cognition and for mood) -- so I sent for 200 mg capsules of this 5-HTP also, by mail-order (and along with it, for Suntheanine, manufactured in Japan -- this is also very helpful for one's mood, banishing depression and anxiety).


June 16th-17th (Sun-Mon) 2019 :- Dream : I was reading about peculiar behavioural results induced by various (idiosyncratically-named -- I could not identify the odd, short names provided with any well-known substances) nutritive substances. The litterature which I was reading in the dream may have intended (as I speculated while reading it) to referr, perhaps partially or allusively, to effects of various digestive substances when ingested with foods.


June 17th-18th (Mon-Tue) 2019 :- Dream : A woman known to me was about to have, installed in her apartment, a set of automatic household-devices for cleansing and bleaching of furniture.


June 19th-20th (Wedn-Thur) 2019 :- Dream : I was growing live herbs, and noticed that it was time for me to replace one aging herb-specimen with a younger specimen of the same species.


June 20th-21st (Thur-Fri) 2019 :- Dream : I found it necessary to make a copy of a computer-typed paper which I had written for some other purpose, in order to make further use of the information under the topic of nutrition. {I had the day praevious (June 20th) found it necessary to made a copy of a computer-typed paper which I had written, when I found that the original had somehow been saved as "read only".}


June 22nd-23rd (Satur-Sun) 2019 :- Dream : I was required to select, which I did with the assistance of several entities who volunteered to accomplish this for me, a number of as-yet undeveloped functional capacities for performing certain tasks. Shortly afterwards, when the time became due for those functional capacities to have become internally developed for propre utilization, I was slightly surpised that the entities who had volunteered to assist at this were as yet praesent, and that they had fulfilled the developments as had been projected; so that consequent future improvements could be expected to proceed thereafter. {This dream might be an allegorical-or-anagogical characterization of the function of herbal bitters in developing adequate capacity of digestion-and-absorption of nutrients from foodstuffs. Yesterday (June 22nd) I had told (via telephone) G.R. of my having a day or two earlier ordered (over the internet, from Penn Herb) two more traditional herbal bitters (these are kentaureion and bogbean-leaf, both of antique European provenience) among the herbs which I sent for to add to the set of biliary digestive substances (which include, besides the herbal bitters, various cholegogues) which I have been ingesting each day with my usual foods (including with nutritional-supplement pills). Just as I was telling to G.R., enough of a variety of herbal bitters (suradded to the ginsengs and the spices in wide-enough variety) ought to make for some noticeable rejuvenation of the body of someone whose material-body capacities had been slinking into senescence -- and this rejuvenation may be accomplished in an effectively efficient mode, perhaps with praeternatural entities (who may manifest themselves ad libitem in dreamings) notably praesent and sensibly (i.e., to the sensibility of the mortal experiencing this) interco-operating.}


June 25th-26th (Tue-Wedn) 2019 :- Dream : I was reading about a certain woman's researching a certain pair of nutritive substances.


June 26th-27th (Wedn-Thur) 2019 :- Dream : I was reading about certain peculiar sensations which can accompany certain kinds of dreaming.


June 27th-28th (Thur-Fri) 2019 :- Dream : I was reading about alternative categorizations of a certain type of nutritional substances, into either 3 or 4 or five categories. {Herbal bitters are sometimes categorized as 3 or as 4 or as 5 varieties. Yesterday (June 27th) I received via mail-order, from Penn Herb, 4 species of herbal bitters (2 from Europe : centaury and bogbean-leaf; and 2 from Bharata : jambul-seed and vetivert-root) which I had not had available for myself praeviously.}


June 29th-30th (Satur-Sun) 2019 :- Dream : I was reading a categorization of certain herbs.
