Cobra in the Mist

Night of August 24, 1976. Tuesday. (Though more correctly in regards to dreaming, very early "morning" of the 25th, and being the beginning of Wednesday).

I am somewhat uneasy and restless. In real life, I had been in the hospital for the operation on my right hand to commence the next day - to remove the bizarre and unexplainable same-sized cysts (of which there were four "complete" and more growing) perfectly lined up on the left side of my thumb and partly down my wrist, which appeared to have fetal-like design of all things, like one of those "twins" you hear about in some ways, but not usually later in life (and there was a later rather ridiculous rumor in school that it was from a snake, as in snake "babies" - a story that I was not the originator of in any way). I was fifteen at the time and ready to enter tenth grade within a short time. After midnight, in real life, my mother being allowed to stay at my bedside as I was falling asleep (though she finally went home for rest the night after my operation), the young black nurse came in (someone I knew when much younger), shined a flashlight on my face, and asked if I wanted sleeping pills (though I was actually almost asleep at that point). She then directed the flashlight up at the television (which was quite high up on the wall) where "Night of the Lepus" was showing. "Watchin' TEE vee," she says with a hint of disapproval and left the room for the night (her flashlight oddly "enhancing" the scene of a seeming spotlight of the "herd" of giant rabbits).

In the eventual dream, there is a cobra under the operating table which does not really get to me, though I have to remember to keep my arm up and on the table (though there is a concern of what will happen when the large dose of anesthesia takes effect). Nothing eventful happens other than the "return" of a common dream element when I was much younger, this being an unusual "mist" (very cloud-like) that rolls along from about six to twelve inches from any implied floor or ground. There are also various distorted and apparently angry faces of unusual colors (with mostly passive responses on my part, as I seem mostly disembodied) and flashbacks to earlier childhood dreams. There are other cobra dreams related to this, the earliest being "Cobra in the Hayloft" from August 18, 1966, seemingly my first deliberate attempt to create a so-called tulpa (but fully in-dream). On September 9th (when I was supposed to be starting school by then but did not due to overwhelming pain as the feeling was eventually coming back in that area of my hand), I had the "Hello Harry" dream where the mist seemed to be engulfing a very large portion of my subconscious mind. This dream centered around a man who had died, but sang "Happy Birthday" to himself in answer to the one friend near his coffin in a basement and one-man party scenario. (This is not really that significant as my birthday is actually on December 20). Prior to the fall into the mist, I had been bitten on the thumb by a cobra in an extremely vivid dream of being in my backyard. The only good thing about this time was the "mystery girl" comforting me, which somehow reminded me of a scenario from the movie "Cat Ballou" (last seen on September 13, 1974, prior to the last time I saw "Night of the Lepus" shortly after - the other two movies airing being "Dark Passage" on another channel and "The Strange Door" on another).

This real-life event of my first ever longer hospital stay directly and precisely confirmed several precognitive dreams from early childhood, including one recurring one with both the enlarged right thumb and even the detail of a giant rabbit (relative to "Night of the Lepus" on television). This confirms the idea of physical precognition or foreshadowing of one's own internal nature being somehow available (at least subconsciously) several years prior (though that certainly does not explain how I knew of the movie before it was even made, which happened fairly often when young).

Amusingly, the night before, the movie title shown at the same time at night (11:30) and same network (CBS) was "Doctor, You've Got to Be Kidding". If that were not amusing enough, again, the previous time I had actually watched "Night of the Lepus" was on Friday the 13th in September of 1974. My wife's birthday was Friday the 13th in September of 1968. This was long before I knew she was a real person (which came in 1991).
