Mothman Flutterings

Mothman This Way Quickly Comes

April 19, 2008 on 9:52 pm | In Mothman Warnings, dreams |

I had another Mothman dream last night. I don’t remember much in way of details, just a vagueness. What I remember is the feeling of the dream. The sense of it.

Before going to sleep, I read a little bit of Colvin’s Mothman’s Photographer II. (I’m just about at the end of the book.) I hadn’t read very much at all, maybe two or three pages. I was very tired, so went to sleep after a few minutes. Couldn’t keep my eyes open at all.

The dream had Mothman coming to me. Appearing to me. Mothman was responding to my call; even though I was doing no such thing. Not intentionally. But in the dream, it was made clear that even thinking about Mothman, and certainly doing things like getting up blogs and all, was enough to get Mothman’s attention.

In a previous dream I posted about here, Mothman wasn’t malevolent. He was a helper, although very distant, almost cold, seeming that way simply because he, or it, was not human, and we, as humans, don’t have a way to express these differences.

But in last night’s dream Mothman was a bit on the creepy side. I think it was because this was more of a warning, or reminder that, yes, Mothman “this way quickly comes” but you better not be messing around just for the hell of it.

There was more, something about other people who didn’t have the best intentions and weren’t up to much good; far “creepier” than Mothman, and so on. It’s here that the dream fades and gets vague.

As with many dreams, it wasn’t the details that were important, it was the emotions, the sense of the thing, that was the message.
