I'm going off the internet for a while to focus on work. Thanks to everyone who sent dreams to help with this. I have learned a lot. I essentially found what i was looking for (and my whole reason for being on X in the first place). So now i have a lot of work to do. Thanks!

Last night, @FreeRilian had me on his live show Chesterton and Chill, to discuss Chesterton's essay "Introduction to the Book of Job" We had a great time and look who all showed up! Shari, @Lance_Cleaver, @Phlebas_, @CleverGull, Risto.

Magnesiacore. Indoor Pool Drywall and Ceilings is a True Marine Wallboard. When it comes to indoor pools, natatoriums, or other enclosed spaces with high humidity and the moist chemical exposure it entails, you need a construction board that can withstand these elements.

Empathic and spiritually sensitive people are more likely to have high pattern recognition. They can find the truth more easily. The technocrats know this. And this is why they use the algorithm to target and torture potential truth seekers with schizophrenic synchronicities.

You must handle the "snake" with caution or it will swallow you alive and digest you in exile for many years. You must "raise it on a standard" and then use it for healing, testing or crowning. I'm choosing the third option.

Why do I always interpret dreams as narratives of sleep? Because it's the only level of interpretation that is safe apart from a therapeutic level. Otherwise it can turn into divination and become a subtle influence that puts you in chains of cyclical self referential causes.

There's a spirit of revival stirring in America. Dinesh D'Souza's new film, The Dragon's Prophecy, is part of that movement. Based on Jonathan Cahn's No.1 bestseller, the film reveals how war, politics and the Bible converge in a way that we need to make a choice. Watch on GJW+.

>Why care about dreams if they almost always express the same pattern? Because of symbolism and analogy. Same reason why daily chores can have higher meaning: as mini experiences of larger patterns. Dreams explain half of reality. I'd say that's a pretty good reason to care.

Of course, much more could be said here, but this is just an X thread after all. (btw this dream can be entirely understood with chapter 62 of my previous book - the only chapter about dreams. That's because this type of dream is actually very common)

The reason you sense these aliens might be "you in the future" is that it is precisely what they are. As soon as you wake up, you will get your rational mind back (this mind will no longer be alienated, it will be you). Similarly, you could have perceived the crocodiles as you.

The "aliens" are joking and calming you down because this part of your mind actually knows that this is just a dream (just a simulation: an inner narrative you are creating about your sleep experiences). It's not dangerous, so calm down Joe. It's just a "joke", it's not real etc.

The alligators represent your estranged body and the energies and passions of your body. This is often represented as water for various reasons or wilderness or animals. When your body is no longer controlled by your mind, it becomes wild again. This is what you are perceiving.

The "aliens" have a small/frail body because when you sleep your mind is not controlling your body. So this represents a mind with diminished body. (some dreams represent this as a floating head, but there are many ways to symbolize this)

The "aliens" have a big head with big eyes because they represent your alienated mind. They have a bigger mind than you in your current state (while asleep) and greater perception (while your eyes are closed and trapped inside this dream simulation)

That being said, now here is my interpretation: Your encounter with the strange beings represent your interactions with your own alienated mind. Your encounter with the waters and crocodiles represent your interactions with your own alienated body (and their energy -passions).

When we fall asleep we basically lose access to our rational mind and the useful energies of our body (useful for work under the guidance of the mind) Our identity retreats entirely into ourselves and we experience these losses as an inner crisis narrative (a simulation).

A big part of falling asleep is experiencing the loss of connection between our head and body (our mind and body, our plans and passions etc.) The true center of identity is between our head and body (we could call it our heart). We are mediators between our ideas and passions.

First of all, this is not a crazy dream, or even an unusual dream. It follows the most basic pattern that almost all dreams follow: Most dreams are simply an inner narrative of our experiences of falling asleep, being asleep, and waking up (or a part of that narrative)

>Can you interpret Joe Rogan's crazy dream? OK. Warning: dreams express themselves in a specific language. Like all languages, this "dream language" must be learned in order to understand what the dream is communicating, so it takes many examples... https://t.co/of5ISuRiO9

1rst order: A serious professor gets a pie to the face. 2nd order: A ridiculous clown gives a serious lecture. *This was lesson one from a series of conferences i intend to give in 2030 on the topic of jokes and humor.

The difference between jokes and meta-jokes: First order jokes subvert one's expectations of normal standards and logic Second order jokes (meta-jokes) subvert one's expectations of a first order joke Example of 2nd: Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side
