weD. - jaN.uary 14th, 2004 There's courage in standing up for your privacy. There's also courage in going public with something that might still be a little difficult for you to face. Your community understands that you're a complex person. The fact is that most people choose to present only their easiest or most obvious side. If you have a business or romantic partner, you feel okay about trusting him or her with your secrets and visions. All relationships are ruled by fairness. Each person sees the other one's humanity. Thanks to the stars' benign influence, everyone in your sphere gets along. been having some pretty intense dReams the last few nights and been meaning to wRite them out before they fade completly.. i cant remember eX.actly the order they came to me.. but remember sNipets of several tHings...   neW kiTTy? i had all my catts with me, even the ones that have passed on. i remember seeing eliZa and ePs and sensed that jo-jo, cHurchy and the others were close. kiTTy and mZ. coSmo were up front and playin' with a new kitt.. a baby.. kind short and pudgy.. gRey or bRown solid colour i think and looked like a combination of claymation and a cHaracter from the simpsons. i couldnt tell if this new kitt wHas a new member of the tRibe or a representation of all or any of my kitt-pac.. but this new kitt felt like it was part of the tRibe, almost spiritual.. as if it had always been there. the new kitt wHas very cute jumping around the kitts and me.. amusin' all of us.. makin' us laugh. i felt secure and warm with my kitt-pac surroundin' me.   "maGic mediciNe" i wHas walkin' down a dirt road in the country... it wHas warm... i found myself ranTin' to someone wHo wHas walkin' along with me. male? female? felt like both. i wHas feeling very passionate as i spoke: "you have the ablity to invoke power by applyin' interaction upon anthing!" i reached up and gRabbed my familar cowboy hatt from my head.. pulled it off and sWooshed it around to eX.press my words... "you can make an object as powerful and symbolic as you want and cReate interaction!" .. i felt very sTrong and passionate about wHat i wHas saying to this person .. like necessary for them to know this to help them with something big they were dealing with. it felt like it wHas "magic medicine" i wHas giving this person. from something that i eX.perienced before or possessed and handin' it over to them... it wHas VERY important and urgent. i had a feeling that we had been riding horses previously and got off to walk.. the horses follwed along with us and remember as i wHas talking they were there in the background. i wHas familar with this path we were walking. i felt.. i created it or wHas on land that i wHas part of or created me. i dont remember dreaming about this place before though, but the sense of me being there for a long time wHas there...   oN. fiRe going up the sTairway i wHas returning to my hoMe? felt like it wHas sombody elses.. an apt. building deserted but other people .. refugees had moVed in. i felt like it wHas a temporary familair.. i glanced out the stairway window and caught a glimpse of a building. i think downtown... it wHas on fire and could see large flames leaping out the windows.. i think it wHas under attack.. as i tried to see if people were helping. the only people there were sourounding the building.. i tHink adding to the fire making the building burn. they were so small .. i couldnt quite make them out. tHey seemed tHreatening. a guy caMe running down the street.. i think i had been talking to him before but didnt know him.. we may have just met.. he had dark hair and eyes.. i think a loud noise previously had made me look out the window but didnt remember until i saw him looking for the cause.. he couldnt find it as he wHas running back and forth down the street.. "look in betWeen the caRs!" .. i sHOuted to hiM. he moVed back and tHen he saw the fiRe.. we both sTood still and watched the building burn.   eS.cape from caS.a de reX. i wHas sitting on my couch in the living room .. here in cHIcago.. i think this is the first dream i have had in my apt since i moved here. i wHas watching TV and the emergency broadcast caMe on.. i jumped up.. i had to get out! get the kiTTs! i ran to the sCary closet and searched for the kitty carriers.. i felt panicky sCared.. i had to leave as quickly as i could .. and i wasnt ready.
