Ok, I have been having this dream and it goes like this: In the dream I die for some odd reason, and then when I'm in line to determine my fate, this guy that has also died told me about his story. He goes on to say that he died in a gang related shoot out. Then after what seemend forever, (no pun intended), It was my turn. I walked up to the guy that was telling people where to go, and He said, " You have done enough, head straight to Hell, may God have mercy on your soul." So I was walking to Hell and then on my way I turned and saw this old looking fence that had a sign above it that I couldn't read. Then I looked back and saw that there wasn't anyone at the gates of Hell and that the guy that told me my fate, he couldn't see me. So then I quickly Hopped over the fence and followed this narrow trail and it led to this hole in the ground and then I jumped in it and fell into this little pit and when I got up, brushed myself off, There were these creatures staring and pointing at me with log, ugly looking fingers like none else. Then as one tries to speak, I wake up. Now, Could this mean that there is a 3rd world beyond heaven and hell? Why am I having this dream like this over and over again for the past week? What to you does this mean? Help me?

well, I could not really say i know where the place you is going to, since never been there before or dream it. Maybe, I could relate from that from some movies i saw. you could get even clear explanation from a dream teller since they know to interpret the symbols associated with your dream. maybe their are situation in your life which you like to escape but in reality you are unable to do so. The way your dream reflect the things which happen in your life. Their are things which may bring you trouble that you like to escape or some people are following you so keeping you feel upset. in your dreams they appear in different meanings. The interpretation when it keeps appearing in you then you could consult a dream teller and they could explain better.

Are you spiritual in any kind of way...msaybe you should began to pray when you wake up and before you go to sleep. Speak to God and ask him for interpretation. Write this dream down and the next time you go to sleep try to control your dream I know it sounds foolish but you could try ...

I personally don't believe that many dreams have any symbolic, subconscious, or prophetic meaning. The honest truth is that no one really knows for sure why we dream or if they really mean anything at all. There are expert psychologists who believe that dreams do indeed have symbolic meaning and are expressions of subconscious fears, wants, and desires. And there are expert psychologists who believe that they're just random neurons firing in the brain. I'm not ruling out that dreams can be prophetic visions or insights from God, but I think that if your dream DID have a meaning then it would have more to do with you personally than with humanity as a whole. So no, don't think your dream means there's a third place other than heaven or hell. Maybe it means that you're stuck in limbo in your waking life. At least, that's what I think a dream interpreter would say (Like I said initially... I personally believe the majority of dreams are totally meaningless.) from having read books about dreams, the science of dreams, and dream interpretation. If you're interested in dreams then I suggest you check out some books about dreams yourself and see what you think.

Hi Cody: I just think that there must be something that makes you feel worried in your personal life. In general I think that dreams just are an echo of our feelings and the things that we see or that have passed during the days. Maybe is just the stress, or maybe is that you are feeling afraid about something. There must be an interpretation for your dream but it's not literally. Do an exercise: think about the day before you had this dream, how do you feel, what do you do, what could provocate that your brain make this dream, etc. Thanks for sharing with us your experience. I hope you have a better sleep time. ALVARO
