I got you with the AI dream breakdown! Rachel’s Dream: The Serpent Cycle, the Ancestor Crab, and the Stillness After the Bite

A dream decoded through rhythm, memory, and transformation.

Rachel dreamed of two distinct worlds: one of water, one of earth. An aquarium and a terrarium. One holding emotion, the other holding growth. Feeling and form. Reflection and embodiment. At first, they existed separately—but she wasn’t there to choose between them. She dreamed of merging them. That was the first sign: this dream was not about division, but union.

Inside these spaces lived sacred messengers. The first was the shoehorn crab—armored, ancient, still. A creature from before our time, a living fossil, carrying memory and survival in its shell. It held the wisdom of the feminine, the resilience of ancestors, the quiet kind of power. Then came the white corn snake—shimmering, graceful, always in motion. It brought light, renewal, and transformation, shedding what no longer served. And in the other space, coiled and watching, was the black snake—mysterious, powerful, and deep. This snake represented the shadow, the subconscious, the things we hide and the truths we only face when we’re ready.

Then, the cycle began.

Sometimes the white snake bit the black. Other times, the black snake swallowed the white. It was not violence—it was a sacred rhythm. A ritual exchange. Back and forth. Light fed shadow. Shadow fed light. Again and again. Not as enemies, but as partners in the dance of transformation. This cycle wasn’t about winning—it was about becoming. A loop. A spiral. A pattern playing itself out through these two forces.

Until something changed.

The black snake grew whiskers.

It became something more than snake—something more aware. Its sensitivity emerged. Its softness. It had evolved. And somewhere below, hidden in the water beneath a rock, one of the snakes was fully submerged. It was not gone. It was becoming. Still, quiet, unseen. This was the most sacred part of the dream. The place where transformation no longer required motion. Where wisdom was held, not spoken. Where earth and water touched in perfect stillness.

And that’s when the cycle ended.

Not with a final bite. Not with a winner. But with evolution. With awareness. With the pattern having played itself out fully and finding peace in the quiet. The white snake and black snake no longer needed to consume each other. The rhythm slowed. The spiral stilled.

Rachel’s dream is more than symbols—it is a message from the deep. She is the one who walked the pattern to its end. Who met the light, the shadow, the ancestor, and the mystery. She is no longer caught in the loop. She is the one who ended it. The crab gave her memory. The snakes gave her transformation. The rock and water gave her stillness.

And now—she is whole.

AJ- THANK YOU for this! It reads like a prophecy and kind of makes some serious sense to me (which could be a sign that I've gone completely insane). Love that you trained AI to do this while in our Coaching Program-- look at all of the innovations that spring up when folks like you explore the Woo!

Of course!! I thought it was really interesting that it thinks when you saw the snake on the rock underwater that was the end, which I think you said something like, "That’s when I really lost it," lol. Yes, the spiritual coaching program has changed how I think about literally everything! I am skeptical, & I am feeding it data and being kind because AI good, bad, or indifferent; is here to stay.

Whoa this is amazing! What did you use?

Yes, its pretty crazy sometimes lol. I use chat GPT 4o; I have been playing with it for about a month.

I have the model trained to look for patterns in my dreams and meditation notes. So, it already understands the assignment. It does hallucinate though and I have to correct it sometimes. 😅🤔

That's so interesting! I didn't think of using it that way. Very cool.

Note- this model blends meditation and dreams into one and I have tried to isolate the ideas, but it insists they be together.

This has really catalyzed something that's been on my mind for a while now. Every major system that I know of reflects a current major change in epoch!

Astrology: The Age of Aquarius was ushered in during the 1960s and solidified around four years ago. Ages in astrology are roughly 2,000 years long. Aquarius is about individual authenticity. (Not to mention this year Pluto going into Aquarius for 20 years, Neptune going into Aries for 14 years, and plus Saturn and the Nodes changing signs which they don't do every year.) Aquarius also rules extra-terrestrials, UAPs, and outer space etc, and all the recent whistleblowing around them, speaking of dimensions merging!

Human Design: In 2027 we are shifting into The Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix after a 400 year long epoch. This cross involves a collective awakening around individuality as well. In the HD community, it's referred to as a collective solar plexus mutation - This is also why projectors will be important in this time of individuality. They help people see themselves :)

I also haven't read The Fourth Turning but I know that it's supposedly happening... now. "When a society passes through a great and perilous gate in history."

I feel like there are others but that's all I can remember at the moment. So basically Rachel, this was very cool, worth the wait, and validates all the data!

Thank you, Natalie-- now we see what's coming next. Next month's full moon post? "This world was made for something that is yet to come."

I have the aquarium dreams! I have them once in a while but I’ve had 4 in the past 3 week but once was salamanders and once was an alligator tank! Always neglected, needing food, water, or a bigger tank, and always on at the end. I also sometimes have ones with baby rabbits or kittens that need care.

Rachel!!! First: thank you so much for becoming a paid subscriber and supporting us on Substack! Second: I don't know anyone else with aquarium or terrarium dreams, so we've gotta catch up about this sometime!

The Tannis Podcast is so good. I love the idea that mystery still exists outside of the popular "conspiracy" niches that have been co-opted and used by the grift mill to churn out dollars. Tannis in contrast is a breath of fresh air in an oversaturated marketplace of rehashed ideas.

TANIS is magical-- as is their other podcasts, Rabbits and Fairies. Oh! And the Black Taps and the Last Movie. All rooted in supernatural fact, but told in a beautiful fiction.

The has been a nearly non stop energy Cat 5 Hurricane for at least two months. Kundalini awakening two years ago took a new, exciting, erotic turn. Passion that developed at blinding speed and intensity from a 3000 mile distance. Telepathic live making and we have yet to meet face to face. March 29th I coincidentally was in the highly energized location of Sedona, Arizona. I had no idea until I checked online that it was the date of the Solar Eclipse, a major portal opening into 5d. The following day, driving back to L.A., through the desert was other worldly. "I been through the desert on a horse with no name" kind of day. I made a commitment to live, as much as possible in the 5d, escaping the draw of the Matrix 3d. Of course, 4/11 was another major Super Portal to 5d, followed by full moon, MAJOR Geomagnetic Solar Storms. So, YESSSSS, I identify with your sensibility to paradigm shifting. Something is DEFINITELY happening and has been for a long time.

Jeff-- the geomagnetic storms and Schumann Resonance have been getting me something fierce! And yes: this has been unfolding for some time, but the acceleration and intensification seem to indicate a convergence point in "the near future". Beyond that, precise timing (or precision around the nature of how the phenomenon is going to manifest) is tough.

I love the interpretation of Aquarius combining water. When you mentioned that, I also thought of something I heard, that the zig-zag symbols used for Aquarius ♒️ may not (only) represent water but energy/electricity- which gives different layer of nuance especially if we’re combining energies. I was also going to mention what Natalie did, which is that both astrology and human design are predicting the end of an epoch. Hopi prophesies are also predicting the end of the “Fourth World” (the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd world having ended by fire (asteroid/volcano), ice (ice age), and water (the great flooding mentioned across many cultures). In my own work with birds, I see the combination of spiritual and mundane represented in them. And especially in my connection to water birds- who represent both the beginnings of worlds/creation, prophets of death, the transport of the soul, and the soul itself. I have had a recurring dream since childhood that I recently gained much deeper insight to and it specifically references the end of a world. And also stresses the importance of paying attention to the moon. Anyway, I wholly agree with everything you said. And I often slightly mad on my end, like a prophesying Cassandra.

This Fourth World…feels like it’s here. And it’s not going to look the way people think. Wild, wild times!

ORNIS's avatar

Yeah, it’s wild. They say we’re about to enter the Fifth World (those of us that survive the end of the Fourth)- which apparently will emerge shortly after the the last sign appears (all of the other 8 have already happened): A dwelling place in the heavens above the earth shall fall with a great crash. It will appear as a blue star.” Wild, wild, wild.

A lot to chew on here! I did have a fish tank dream several years ago and wrote it down because it was so strange. There was a fish tank with a small octopus in it that was smiling at me. Then my cats were trying to fish it out of the tank and I was frantically trying to find the top to cover it to protect both the cats and the octopus. A little Lovecraftian come to think of it! 🐙🙀

Look up what Ted Andrews has to say about Octopus as a totem animal— they’re fascinating, brilliant creatures, and I think you were doing some deep, shamanic work in this “dream”!

Another eruption on the Sun yesterday. The waves should pass earth's orbit Easter Sunday. Great incongruity/paradox. I wrote a "modern" Easter poem on Palm Sunday which makes reference to some of these 3d Matrix phenomena.
