Inconceivable!
Jul. 6th, 2004 09:22 amSo last night I got to have a new repeating dream, that seems to be showing up over the last week or so. It's just bizarre, though, because it's only a snippet (that I remember, of course) of an apparent fertility rite.
Mainly, it involves a woman (can't tell who, despite the Live and In Living Color point-of-view) being penetrated by a stylized penis-shaped candle, which is then taken out and the wick at the 'tip' being lit, which is about the point where I either wake up or the dream fades from memory. Just that same scene, a good half-dozen times in the last week probably.
And of course, it's made all the more improbable by the fact that a) not many women I know (and none I'd expect to be performing this rite with) want more children, b) the candle would probably melt/severely deform from the body heat, and c) it would be damn hard to light at that exact moment, I'd think.
Just plain weird, but there it is, and it goes in the file. And, I suppose, if anybody's in need of a good fertility rite, have at it...
