Incredibly beautiful dream of blue skies, green grass, and marriage. Request interpr

[tomgto]

I had this dream back in May of 2008. At that time I was not in a relationship. Though I had two or three minor relationships since I had this dream, none were even close to marriage. At this time I am single with out being married. I was also not deploy able at all. So my job in the military was a 9-5 job with lots of time off. This dream I had holds an incredible memory to me. I recorded it after I woke and remember it still to its fullest detail. The colors were very vivid in the dream. The emotions extraordinarily strong and real. It is without a doubt one of the most beautiful dreams I have ever received from the Holy Spirit. If anyone has any insight to it than please let me know. I would really like to know what this dream meant.

The dream started outside. There were maybe 100 or so people. There were equally proportioned on two sides. They were all standing. They were all dressed well. The sky outside was blue and pretty. The ground around us green with grass. A very lush green that was as spectacular as the blue sky above us. I remember some trees way in the distance.

I was walking forward with a line of people in two's behind me. I walked forward and I was full of unbelief. I was at my own wedding. I was very excited and I was astounded that it was happening.

After we passed all the guests and the line of people behind me were equally spaced the order was given to “about face” I was very angry. I did not want military orders being passed at my wedding. All the other people in line did an abrupt about face I just turned around at my own pace.

After everyone was in position they unwound and passed down a silver cord. This silver cord moved from the front of the line and to me. It was almost a wire type silver cord with silver leafs sprouting out of it. This was a marriage line. It was some kind of ritual that it be passed down until I was holding the end of this cord (or the beginning). It was pretty important. About the time I received the end of this line the dream changed.

I was now sitting down with a group of people. My fiancée was sitting next to me on my left. At some point during the ceremony I reached over and meet her hand. Our hands squeezed together and I could feel the love between us. Then we relaxed our hands and held hands again. It was amazing and very full. It was the kind of love were you hold great trust in that person. The wedding then started to show some videos. I don't remember a lot of it but it did contain some nudity. It was suppose to be meant as some kind of joke. My fiancée and I were disgusted with it. I remember leaning over and telling my fiancée that I was so happy we were going to have a respectable wedding. This whole time I never saw my fiancée. I never looked at her. But I knew she loved me.

The scene changed again. This time I was back outside. There was this huge piler or pyramid made of white concrete or stone. It started at maybe 500 or 600 feet as a foundation. Then another slap of white concrete on top of it but slightly smaller so it would create a step about 5 or 6 feet. Continue stacking slabs until you have the top about 20 feet by 20 feet. Now take the whole thing and put water around it and let that water cover about 1/4 of the structure. One end of this was overlooking the mountains. It reminded me of Greece. It was another bright and sunny day. The feeling of peace and love was almost overwhelming. This structure with the water was breath taking. More breath taking was my fiancée standing just in the water on the steps enjoying the view. I still never saw her face. But she was wearing darker clothes. She had a light olive skin, she was a brunette. I looked at her with love in my eye and I also thought that as much as I cared for her I knew that the marriage would take a lot of work. That she was really different than all the other girls I had known. She had a very strong air around her. That she could be hard headed at times. But that didn't change how I felt. In fact I thought that it would be worth the patience.

I woke up at that point

Wow! Sort of speechless here.

If you were virgin, this dream would speak of the earnestness of the Church's desire for you, in Christ. I say that because to be so vivid, you must have led a very pure life and your bride being unmoved by that, must mean your bride was very pure also! If you are married, I expect that devotion will come very naturally to you, that your word is pure to your wife.

Affection has no price, it has all it wants and does not ask for more, yet finds everything it needs, where it should be.

Well, I'm pushing 40 so I'm no virgin

It's a nice vision to hold onto when you're feeling discouraged or devoid of opportunity. So many times God gives people these images to hold onto. Abraham waiting to have children, Noah waiting for it to rain.

The colors were very vivid in the dream. The emotions extraordinarily strong and real. It is without a doubt one of the most beautiful dreams I have ever received from the Holy Spirit. If anyone has any insight to it than please let me know. I would really like to know what this dream meant.

The dream started outside.
Outside is a public realm.

There were maybe 100 or so people. There were equally proportioned on two sides.
Balance of support from both sets of family and friends, contacts. That's good! Especially if she is foreign. (You are almost foreign now, lol... living such a high percentage of your life offshore.)

They were all standing.
In readiness, at attention. Awaiting something about to happen. Active, not passive. Also not resisting the event, probably.

They were all dressed well. The sky outside was blue and pretty. The ground around us green with grass. A very lush green that was as spectacular as the blue sky above us.

Green grass sometimes shows up in dreams as financial growth, adequate provision. Once I had a dream with darker lush grass like that, and I had the impression it was almost too much to handle. Over-fertilized grass (it was artificial growth in my dream).

Blue is often peaceful and trustworthy, open and honest. The expanse of the sky is like endless possibilities.

I remember some trees way in the distance.
Many times dream trees indicate specific pivotal people. It might be mentors you both had over the years, knowing about your marriage... or the sense of appreciating their influence.

I was walking forward with a line of people in two's behind me. I walked forward and I was full of unbelief. I was at my own wedding. I was very excited and I was astounded that it was happening.

Maybe because after so many years working, it gets to feeling as though it's not going to happen?

After we passed all the guests and the line of people behind me were equally spaced the order was given to “about face” I was very angry. I did not want military orders being passed at my wedding. All the other people in line did an abrupt about face I just turned around at my own pace.

In control, making choices, stepping away from the regimented approach you've known.

After everyone was in position they unwound and passed down a silver cord. This silver cord moved from the front of the line and to me. It was almost a wire type silver cord with silver leafs sprouting out of it.

Hm. I have heard people say that a silver cord relates to your human spirit -- your life force that leaves when you die. That puts a morbid slant on the dream.

Ecclesiastes 12:6
Remember Him--before the silver cord is broken.

Some Christians react to that term, knowing it is also spoken of in new age circles. Maybe in your dream it relates to all the people who passed along life-giving words and Christian teachings, and the sprout was the hope in continued growth, while in your care. Think about how long ago you had the dream, and what you were doing then spiritually.

This was a marriage line. It was some kind of ritual that it be passed down until I was holding the end of this cord (or the beginning).

The beginning, because you -- each believer -- takes off in their own ministry of how they relate to others, live their lives, and use their gifts. Even though our faith feels very individual, we would not have survived in it if it hadn't been for the solid foundation of generations of people passing along the faith, the gospel of truth.


A pyramid can have a similar concept -- one thing building upon another, improving and narrowing/refining as it goes upward. Stones can show tradition or even legalism -- rigid, permanent structures that people built.

Water often relates to people, the public, and the structure was submerged in the liquid. Try to think of the dream without literal assumptions, purely symbolic for a few minutes. She was closer to the water/public than you were. The building was more beautiful for being partially covered with water.

We are living stones.

1 Peter 2:5
You also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

Thanks again for taking the time to look at this dream and giving me your opinion. I truly believe just by the few dreams I have posted here I still have a long spiritual road ahead of me (a lot to learn). I want to be more firmly rooted and have the time to grow.

I also believe that is true that we are given dreams to hang on too. I have been recording my dreams to paper since 2006 and this one still stands out as one of most vivid.

God Bless

Interesting ... I had to wonder if this was along the lines of Gottservant's post, showing how dearly God saw the marriage of the bride of Christ, the church. But only you could answer that for sure, IMO. Many dreams seem to have parallel personal applications, so it could also show you a positive outlook on a potential partner.

 

[tomgto]

Parsley, my post regarding my spiritual path was inspired by the knowledge of the dream interruptions that have posted. It was not meant at the dream itself. I do not at all feel this dream was speaking of Christ and his love for the church as a wife.

I can't agree more that dreams have a parallel personal application. God Bless
