Dream of Hooded Shadow Figure --What Could It Mean?

I have been having lots of craft dreams. Monday night I dreamed about standing up for my believes in the craft and not letting others push me around. Last night the first part was learning about its okay to be my self and then suddenly I am going down a tunnel.

In the light, there is a huge shadow walking ahead of me, it was wearing a black robe with the hood up. Then everything would be void of light. When the light appeared, there was the tall black shadow walking in front of me. Suddenly I am on the interstate. There is an exist to my right that curves, an exit to my left but I don't remember seeing what kind and straight ahead. On both sides there are buildings like you would see when at exits on the interstate.

There is a dark skinned man beside me, and I feel/know he is from Africa but it was not based on his skin color. He pointed to the right curved exit, and I went and he went with me. At the end of the exit, we stood at a gas station and he said "You will come with me." Then I woke up.

I am honestly confused. I've had dreams of a cat and owl introducing themselves. Now this? But other than that, I have not seen any sort of sign. Maybe I am just seeing them. Or my Personality Psychology class is getting into my dreams. I feel like I am stranded in the air but unable to move at all, just floatin. I just don't know right now.

The right hand path is benevolent, the left hand path is malevolent; these are classic western tradition interpretations.

Black is the colour of Saturn, and sometimes he appears as a hooded figure.

To me, & this is just an opinion, it has several indications of out of body (OOB). The section before the tunnel is one level, where scenes & events are set up to tell us the "theme" for the night, I.e. That It's not just ok to be yourself, but important to know your spiritual identity as you enter a different level of consciousness via the tunnel.

You follow a hooded and, well sort of drama-Witchy looking person and this dark robe (dark exterior) is the sign this person is the same as the dark skinned passenger, directing the choice of route to the "right hand" exit. That's a guide or I'll chew my Witchy hat. The terms left hand path and right hand path are esoteric terms for following the occult or hidden teachings of the dark mystery paths that focus on self-serving goals is called the left-hand path, or the revealed and spiritually enlightening is the right-hand path.

Once into the deeper OOB level, you travel apparently in a "vehicle" you don't pay any attention to, but which is the vehicle of your astral body. You're on the expressway which is a common OOB indication. There are designated safe "roads" to travel within the astral planes.

Gas station would probably be a symbol for refueling your traveling form, or even the physical body saying it needs to use the facilities please, and moving you to start waking up; and I think the message that you will follow the guide speaks clearly enough. edit: if you'd ever had any doubts about where the WC path will lead you, now you know. Left or right -That's a significant, life altering choice in one's journey

Then you woke up. You may or may not have gone somewhere you don't remember, or the message was given and received, so the purpose was accomplished. When we go OOB we need a purpose and also someplace to go. Otherwise we just hover at-ease over our sleeping physical counterpart.

Feeling spacey after an OOBE is common. When you get floaty, ground your energy field. it stabilizes all the various parts and soon we can function normally.

You might want to start a dream journal, just in case. This could have been a "more to come" dream.

Thank you all! I have always been nervous about dream journal but with the strangeness, I probably should. I also never thought I would have an OOB. I guess signs are showing in my dreams. I definitely have to keep a journal.

What makes you nervous about a dream journal?

Similar but off topic kind of, Ive once had a dream that I had golden skin and I felt as if I was African. It was something I felt in my heart. Im of african descent, but this sensation was very different.

Did you feel it was self-diagnostic, like spiritually the inner being is as gold? Or an alternate life-time persona?

One time at the store, I saw a man pushing a toddler in a grocery cart. They were obviously father and son because they were spit and image of each other. Both were cafe-au-lei golden skinned, with tight black, curley hair and the brightest sky blue eyeS id ever seen. Identical gazes. Id've loved to have asked where their lineage was from.

When I say golden skin I mean like the metal. There was no difference. And I had green glowing eyes. I believe it was a spiritual thing

But going back to thia dream, I believe your inner mind is guiding you towards the light, if youve made some decisions that were in misalignment with that.

So sorry for the long silence. I was sick for past 2 weeks. I think I fear a dream journal because I’m afraid of what my dreams may mean

That puts you in fear for no reason. It will cause anxiety whenever you have a dream. In the back of your mind you'll have that "Should I have a Journal? I'm fearful of the unknown.", feeling. It's the same as when we were a kid in a dark room - "Is that a monster over there! Is that a ghost?". No, when we put on the light it was a couple of boxes we didn't know had been stacked there and a white shirt someone hung on a chair. Courage is not being fearless. It is recognizing your fears and overcoming them by acting anyway.

You can write your dreams down when they happen, and save interpretation for later. If you keep a journal, you might see patterns emerge.

I’ve been having a lot of dreams about show my belief in the Goddess and witchcraft. I’ve been wearing more jewelry that represents that.
