Selection # 13 – Prophetic Dreams and Visions
This selected entry was originally published here on March 9, 2008.
The prophets of old, particularly those in Biblical times, suggested that in times of crisis, premonitions of future events would come to ordinary people in the form of visions and prophetic dreams. This would especially be the case during the “last days” leading up to the return of the Messiah. This was what the Jewish prophet Joel wrote:
“And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.” (Joel 2:28)
There can be little doubt that the world today is undergoing a global crisis in which the very future of the earth is threatened. This is no longer a matter of debate. This feeling of impending gloom has penetrated deeply into the psyche of mankind. It has become the “zeitgeist” (spirit of the age) that now impacts the whole of humanity.
So it should come as no surprise to find that there are people today who are experiencing dreams and visions that seem to bear out the words of the Biblical prophet. When the popular North American radio talk show “Coast to Coast AM” recently invited listeners to submit examples of their dreams and visions for 2008 and beyond, these were some of the replies that were received.
Global Firestorm
I have had two very realistic dreams of the end of the world. … In both dreams, I was with my loved ones and we were witnessing a global firestorm that was about to engulf us. … In the first dream, we stood atop a flat-roofed building watching the firestorm approach and I clearly remember feeling at peace and completely comfortable with the circumstances, as if I already knew there was more for me to see as the firestorm approached. I remember standing up and taking a deep breath and feeling a warm calm surround me.
The second dream was a bit more complicated, I remember being at my family home, pressed up against the foundation of the house waiting to see if we were going to survive the firestorm, and in the end I don’t know if we did or not – but the feeling of calm and comfort was not there.

Massive Earthquakes in 2010
Circa: 2010. An abrupt ending to Mid-Eastern wars and current global conflicts occurs – due to massive earthquakes as the continental plates shift from their present location. Many nations and islands will be obliterated. Food shortages and lack of fresh water supply will escalate, affecting all people on Earth. (I see the obliquity of Earth’s axis changing due to the melting of polar ice, shifting trillions upon trillions of tons of Earth’s mass towards the equator, which causes the continental plates to shift).

Apocalypse via Planetoid
Back in 1995 I had this dream. It seemed so real and powerful. I was on vacation at the Sand Banks in Picton, Ontario, Canada. I was sleeping in this old stone house which was part of the hotel. Anyway, the dream was of this big huge planet-like sphere in the night sky and it was pulsing and very bright. We knew it was the end of our world as we know it. It was kind of scary, yet most amazing and we were in awe, and this entity was so huge and powerful that you just accepted it. The whole event was so real. It’s like the whole world came together to look up at this thing and we all realized that there was no stopping this.

Mt. Ranier Blows its Top
I am an intuitive/sensitive…shamanic counselor/teacher with a professional spirit medicine practice, and I live rurally in southwestern Oregon. Two years ago I had what was undoubtedly a prophetic dream that I feel needs sharing…The dream was of Mt. Rainier exploding! literally, exploding!…The top blew off and there was great devastation for many, many miles. It was so explosive that I awakened instantly and KNEW that is was a prophetic dream! I was not aware of when this would happen, but it felt like it was in the not-distant future, anytime really.
Last year, after this dream, I had the occasion to drive north from my home in Southern Oregon to visit friends at the tip of the Olympic Peninsula in Washington. During the drive from Portland north, along the western flank of Mt. Rainier, I could literally FEEL, as an intuitive/sensitive, the instability of the earth over which I was traveling. It was very powerful and a feeling I could not shake. To this day, when I recall this dream, I instantly get chicken skin and a hugely anxious feeling in my body.
Best Blessings from a long-time (12 years) listener.

Comment
Of course there is no guarantee that any of the above visions or dream experiences will actually happen. But the corollary is also true. There is no guarantee that they won’t. Yet the inescapable fact is that intuitive people everywhere are receiving information of a catastrophic nature. The world seems to be headed for some sort of apocalyptic climax that has long been predicted.
There is one final point which those people who have read “The Last Days of Tolemac” will immediately recognize. All of the above situations are circumstances which have already been predicted in the book. But as terrifying as such events may seem, they are not signs that our world is coming to an end. Instead, as the Oracle of Tolemac has pointed out, they are actually the birth pangs of a new and glorious age. The earth itself is in the process of being reborn, and those who inherit this new earth will experience a Golden Age that is more glorious than they could ever have imagined.
