Have You Ever Had Avatar-Related Dreams?

[Taronyu Eywa]

I had an Avatar "Dream" very very recently.

I haven't been here in a while, mainly because life finally caught up with me again. However, this dream has brought me right back.

The dream wasn't very visual, but I could feel strong emotions running through me all at once. In terms of location I did not know where I was but I always knew the moment it started that I was on Pandora. It was dark, and the forest was lit up in beautiful bioluminescence and there was a hole in the canopy where the night sky shone through. At first, I couldn't hear anything, and my vision was all fuzzy and distorted.

However, this tiny orb of white light appeared in my field of vision and started to move slowly away from me, and as I focused on it, my eyesight became clearer and gradually the sounds of the forest came to me ears. Beautiful sounds. I didn't know what the light was, but I felt intense emotion as I watched it drift away, like every part of my being had gone with it. I was looking at it from a third person perspective, and I don't remember having any physical form, just watching this orb drift slowly through the forest.

A blue hand clasped around it gently, cupping it with gentleness. At this point, I was sort of zoomed in on the orb, almost seeing the world from its perspective and scale. I looked up and it was Jake, staring with a gentle smile across his face at this orb of light, I did not know what to think, what I was doing but I knew I didn't want it to end, I'd never had a dream so vivid as this. Neytiri crept into my field of vision, her face had this sort of awe to it, her mouth was open slightly like she had gasped but didn't wan't to disturb the orb. She then smiled at it also, and again I felt a surge of emotions, amazing yet they tore at me inside.

Before I knew what was going on, I was cast away and started to slowly move away from the orb. I watched it get released from Jake's hand, my vision getting more fuzzier each second, and cast upwards like when you release a butterfly. It drifted gently away as they watched it quietly. By now my I could hardly tell what anything was, but the intense and mixed emotions had gone, and instead I felt an utter sense of peace. Like I had been relieved of a heavy burden. Like that orb of light was my soul, being cast away to be part of Pandora.

Everything went dark though, and I woke up, yet remembered it so clearly. It was an amazing experience, and try as I might, I don't think it will ever happen again. I have toyed with the idea of what that orb of light was ever since, but I am certain it was a part of me. If it was a part of me, I couldn't think of any better place to give it to .

Sooner or later though, you always have to wake up
