Does anyone else get demonic encounter dreams? I get them once in a blue moon, but last night's/this morning's dream was a bit different than what I've experienced in the past because I felt like my back was being scratched up in real life. Now, it could've been my cat bothering me while I was having that dream, but I'm unsure since there's no visible scratch marks that I can see. Either way, it's weird..

These encounters I have in my dreams...I usually never see the "demon" or evil creature but I feel their presence. It's kind of like I'm in a void or a very dark room and I can just sense them. My dream self has to repeat various phrases, anything from "begone", "get thee gone", "the power of Christ compels you", "you hold no power here", or anything along those lines over and over and over again (while my dream self is terrified) that it becomes sort of a mantra and I wake up.

I will say I wasn't too particularly scared this time around, which is surprising, but the fact that it felt like I was being scratched did add a different factor to the dream.

#my post #dreams are very weird #do these particular dreams mean anything? unsure #i get them often enough that maybe it does but not too often it affects me in daily life #but often enough i have to give it thought...#i do have a lot of 'nightmare' type dreams in a year #though i will say the demonic ones that happen probably once a year do actually scare me while i shrug off the others #i have also had a dream where i felt like someone was trying to suffocate me or sit on my chest and i woke up with the covers on my face #now i could've done that...but i hardly move in my sleep #i did have sleep paralysis when i was 12 and that was...whew. frightening #dreams are weird man
