I dream of other people's lives and I think someone might be in danger!

I always knew my dreams saw into the future, it's a trait that runs amongst the women in my family. It's never anything significant, just small snippets that most people would disregard as Deja Vu. Lately, however, I have been having intense dreams where I see the world through someone else's eyes. The first time this happened, I dreamt I was with my ex. I was sitting on a concrete ledge looking down at him while he placed himself between my knees and his hands on my side. I remember feeling incredibly insecure as I tucked a strand of blonde hair (in real life I'm a brunette) behind my ear and sucked in my protruding stomach. I woke up the next day to see a post on socials from my ex (yes, I know, I should have unfollowed him when we broke up). The picture was of him and a blonde at a park. She was sitting high up on a concrete wall looking down at him, positioned awkwardly. I realized the familiarity of the post was due to my dream the night before. I had seen into her life.

The latest dream has got me seriously on edge. I dreamt that I was a witch. Please note, I am unfamiliar with witchcraft, so if the dream got anything incorrect feel free to educate. In the dream I was about twenty years older than I am in real life with long, frizzy red hair. I was doing my grocery shopping when a frantic, twenty-something-year-old girl stopped me. She had noticed my dark garb and the pendants that I was wearing. She asked if I was a practicing witch and if I could help her. I was a bit newer to witchcraft; my long-term girlfriend had introduced me. So, I was hesitant to accept the young girl's request because my girlfriend had warned that sometimes helping others through means of witchcraft can really drain you. Nonetheless, I had empathy for the young girl and agreed to help her rid her home of the dark presence that resided there.

Her home was a small log house in the woods. I had come prepared with crystals, sage, and salt. I did a walkthrough of her house, noting the changes needed such as; moving the head of her bed away from the window and to blocking the mirror in the bathroom from facing her while she slept. I began to sweep burning sage across each room, taking extra time around windows and mirrors. I finished around the open door when a wave of dread hit me. I slammed the door shut and slowly turned toward the young girl. The evil entity wasn't in her home; it was in the surrounding forest. It was much larger than we had previously anticipated. My magic was not powerful enough to take it on, and I could feel the darkness closing in around us.

I woke up from this dream in a cold sweat. I tried to put the dream out of my mind and thought I had done so successfully until a few months later. I was driving out of the grocery store parking lot when I saw a frizzy red headed older woman walking to her car. She was dressed in all black and had adorned herself with witchy looking necklaces. The woman stopped and turned to wave goodbye at a young girl...a young girl that looked all too familiar.
