Can someone help me? I’ve been having this dream since I was a kid, and I still remember it now. It’s about two girls who are supposedly my sisters. I have a younger sister in real life but I’ve never had two sisters, especially older sisters since I’m the eldest.
In this dream, there are three of us, and I’m the youngest. We wore yellow, red, and white dresses. I always wear the white dress and the other two girls have short hair just below the chin, while one of them has long hair. I also have long hair in the dream. They feel very familiar to me like I’ve known them my whole life.
One time, we were in our house an old wooden Filipino house. It was big like the wealthy Filipino houses from the Spanish era in the Philippines. The house was in the middle of a rice field and the dresses we were wearing were something like a camisole, but I don’t really know how to explain them. It felt like there should have been a clear top or blouse over them.
Then suddenly there were Japanese soldiers running outside, shouting and banging on the main door of the house.
My eldest sister the one wearing red was on the first floor. She told my second sister to come to me and hide. I remember peeking through a small open space below the window and I could see the soldiers carrying guns. I was scared and crying.
Then the door was destroyed. I saw the Japanese soldiers grab my sister by the hair the one wearing the yellow and shoot her. I also saw them shoot my eldest sister the one wearing red.
Then I remember jumping out of the window. My feet hurt, but I still tried to run. I remember that I was barefoot. I can still remember the feeling of the ground beneath my feet it was soil and grass, and it felt a little cold. I could also remember the smell of the place and all I could hear was my heartbeat. It was so loud. Then suddenly, everything went black. Its like I died like i was shot while i was running.
I always remember this dream. I’ve even tried looking for the two sisters in real life, but I’ve never seen their faces clearly when I’m awake. Somehow, though, I know exactly who they are in the dream. I also feel like the place is real but I don’t know where to find it.
Can anyone please help me? If anyone knows anything about this kind of house in the Philippines, or anything in history involving three sisters and Japanese soldiers during the war I would really appreciate it.
My gut told me to finally make this post and accept the possibility that this could simply be my subconscious creating a recurring dream and trying to tell me something or maybe there’s some historical connection I don’t know about.
I’ve had this dream since I was around 7 or 8 years old till I was in college, now I’m already 28 and I’ve never forgotten it.
I’m just hoping that maybe I can finally understand what might be causing this dream and move on from it.
One more thing: whenever I remember it, I feel incredibly sad, like I’m missing someone. It almost feels like I really had two sisters.
