Part of what I dreamed last night is a repeating dream that I have had for many years, though in slightly different forms.
I dreamed that at some point in the evening, I went out onto my back porch and looked up into the sky. I could hear a noise that's hard to describe--not quite like a fast plane going overhead, and not quite like a rocket, either, but pretty loud. I saw a fairly large object arcing across the sky, that looked like a planet in darkness. There was not light reflected on it. I couldn't see the moon, either.
I called for my husband to come out, and by the time he got outside, the object had gone out of sight. I kept looking up and saw objects in the sky. It looked like the earth was in the middle of an asteroid or meteor belt, and I couldn't tell if these smaller objects (smaller than the planet) were stationary or falling.
I went back inside the house and went to the front door to open it. Shortly after I opened it and stuck my head out, one of the objects hit the ground not far in front of our house and exploded. I closed the door and told my husband and we started to gather our sleeping children together and were trying to figure out where to go, which was probably going to be the basement. I woke up before anything else happened.
In past dreams the "planet" or comet that I have seen clearly in the sky was not moving, or did not appear to me to move. Sometimes there have been more than one of them. Any thoughts?
