I don't know if I should post this in Gods and Goddesses or not but I'm curious as to who this guy might be in my dream. I believe it to be a God, but I'm not sure. Maybe I read Jack and The Beanstalk too many times when I was younger.. But I've had it alot of times after I was five.
--begin dream--
Okay it's a third person dream, where I'm at this huge castle. It's in the sky on top a cloud (see where it seems jack and the beanstalkish?) Well I'm I guess a spirit and I'm looking through the window at this middle aged man and this little girl with blondish hair, braided in pigtails. The man had red hair, a red beard and mutache and was gigantic! His voice boomed when he spoke and his cheeks where rosey and he seemed happy. The little girl sat on his lap and she had to have been no older than 8. She was saying "Daddy daddy, read me a story." And he'd ask her what story she wanted him to read and she'd pick out this book that was brown and had gold writing and gold around the edges. In the center of the book there was a symbol of three circles, that look almost like the olympic symbol, only with three instead of 5. The man opened the book and started to read from it. It was a book about my life!! He told the little girl about what happened that day in my life and as the little girl sat listening to his every word I woke up.
--end dream--
Okay, now I know my mind is overactive at times, but for being 5 and having dreams like this. It's always stuck out to me in my mind, the last time I had the dream was when I was 15. But I know I've had it before because I've asked my grandpa what it meant (yes..the dead one..)
Now a couple of days ago I had a dream of the same little girl with a hammer in one hand and a wand in the other and she was smiling telling me to "come and watch me." I believe that this was the Maiden aspect of Brid, because I asked her a few days ago to help me learn and that I want to learn with her. I could be wrong though, but it's odd that the same girl would be in another dream.

I've always felt like I was some how in a tv show. Hehe, like I'm being watched and recorded so that other people can laugh at me. Has anyone else had a similar experience? The dream about the book didn't help much with that thinking.

What a lovely dream....the giant reminds me of some legend or other...I'm sure there is a red haired giant somewhere, and a lot of them have castles.....I guess as castles are big places and giants are big people! :fpipesmok

I wouldn't say I felt like i am on a tv show but I know what you mean. Well I know I am watched by spirit
But I have felt that i am the subject in someone's else imagination or dream and one day they will wake up or stop imagining me and "puff" I'll be gone.....but then that means all of you lot of in the same dream as me and therefore arn't real either

Thining about it *see the steam coming out of my head to prove I'm thinking* isn't there a few Egyptians gods ...such as Set who is red hared

Maybe you should research red headed gods :)

well my boyfriend was telling me that there's some celtic gods that have red-hair and that it could've been one of them. I have no idea though. I think the little girl was the maiden aspect of Brid though. Maybe it was Dagda since he's supposed to be her father?
<--needs a celtic pantheon guru :D

You tried asking in the gods/goddesess forum to see if anyone knows of a red headed god or giant or someone really tall with a castle in the sky?

That's such a lovely dream... It makes me think of all the kindly giant godlike men I've ever read about in stories & myths.

... somehow, no specific ones come to mind. :/ Grr.

It seems like such a sweet and domestic, cozy scene. Just thinking abou tit, I can almost feel the glow of the firelight on their faces.

Beorn, from The Hobbit... He reminds me of him. Even though Beorn wasn't that kindly.

Oooh. That's just such a sweet dream, it makes me go all warm and cuddly inside. *cuddles with pillow*

Damnit, I wish I could help you out more, though. Err... maybe it's like... they're watching over you. Neh? I dunno. And... Well, if you think she's Brid, then, go ahead, she's Brid. As for the other guy... I wouldn't totally bank it on being Dagda just because she calls him 'Daddy'. I mean, they're all sort of... inter-realted, anyway.
