Some days ago, I was in a hotel close to the sea and a lake and I sleeped in a bed...then I was dreaming, but the feelings of the dreams was so real...the dream was: In the room that I was sleeping (PERFECTLY the room that I was sleeping) had an box in my bad...when I touched this box the TV turned on and a man wearing evrything purple looked me and said: -Dont open this box...its better for you. but I opened the box...then someone started to scream and scream (the sound was coming from under the bed) and the room started 2 shake very strong like an earthquake...then I looked under the bed N there was a Deep One that crabed my arm...I woke up sweating and with a pain in the arm. Wtf was this?

Ahh, Pandoras Box.
I do not blame your dream-self for opening it, we must be fearless when we dream (i think) ;D
Btw, if you want to be sure that Venger sees this, then pm him about it. He manages many tasks at once and so that way you will be sure that he sees it.
I think it is a fantastic dream. I can imagine it in my head when i read it. Very strong images in that dream.
I wont begin to interpret the dream right away. There are some strong "release" images in the dream (the box, and doing what one is told not to do). I shall let this float around in my head and perhaps a different angle will appear to me.
In any case i would not fear the dream. I see dreams like this as lessons, tools, instinctual evolution even.

But it haves anything to do with The Old Ones or other God/Spirit/Demi-God/Demon/Angel?

as Madguten said, i do manage many tasks. i'm also currently being tutored in the art of poker, specifically Texas Hold'em. yes, even the master needs instruction occasionally...
so, about your dream! what does the color purple signify to you? was there anything about the box that was unusual? your dream made me think of Hellraiser a bit. also, the Deep One obviously gives it some Lovecraftian overtones. the purple clothed one might be your higher self, an authority figure in your life, or a personification of your own fear/apprehension...
with the screaming and shaking, it also seems to have an apocalyptic cast to it. would you agree or disagree?
dreams are strange. look for metaphors and parallels in your own life to your dream. there might be something you can pick up on. if this dream is recurring (even a different variation on the same theme), post it here or p.m. me again.

fun fact: on a RGB colour scale, purple is the inverse opposite of green.

and to the human eye, green and red are opposites.
perhaps that coincidence has something to do with why the Cult of Cthulhu colors are green, purple, and red...

I dont know what purple means to me...I feel good in purple and when I see purple I remember magick. In the box...I forgot to say that in the box was a thing like an old letter or parchment with a red tie.

I find this purple thing interesting; I had planned on saying something beforehand, but I refrained. There are many parts of your dream (Saxo) which I can interpret, and have, however I will focus on the colour purple. Some time back I had a dream, one which I genuinely believed myself to be contacted by Cthulhu; this was long before I found the Cult. Cthulhu manifested (eventually) in my dream as a great purple, tentacular.... horror. He was everywhere, a cosmic mass of writhing appendages. His tentacles touched everything and everywhere, half-obscuring his entire body, if even he had one. Millions upon millions of tentacles, all purple, were everywhere and in everything. It was as if He was always there, just behind the frequency of reality, squirtching and wriggling majestically.
My point is that Cthulhu was purple. The fact that green is purples' opposite seems significant, very.
[edit:] I just re-read this and realized I wrote "everywhere" everywhere. haha Suffice it to say that the prescence of Cthulhu was in all things and of all things. I was dreaming. It was Glory and Bliss. Waking up was a shame.

VSIncidentally, I was reading something either last night or the night before which spoke of the significance of the colours Green and Purple. According to the article, Purple is the most positive of colours, while Green is the most Negative. Thought that might be interesting to share

Not? You see, if I speak my opinion and I happen to be wrong, I may be inviting retribution upon my own head. However, if I am right, then it would be quite important for me to tell you. Based upon this, I personally feel that it would be a good idea for you to pursue initiation in your own way. Interpret your dreams in the manner you see fit, and record your progress here. Time will tell whether I was wrong or right about the interpretation of your dream, and I will have the hidden satisfaction of knowing one way or the other. Until then, Best of luck to you. ~H.

I like 2 say a thing that I'm seeing that happens after the dream. I mean, after the dream I can feel that now I'm more sensitive about magick. I feel the magick and my spells are now best than before. And Now I can have conscious-dreams.

"I like 2 say a thing that I'm seeing that happens after the dream. I mean, after the dream I can feel that now I'm more sensitive about magick. I feel the magick and my spells are now best than before. And Now I can have conscious-dreams." Ah yes.. through conscious-dreams I do most of my magick.. sigil and magick would be about second. I hate to be presumptious, as this may taint what your subconcious really ment for you to learn from the dream, but im guessing the man in purple is your psychic sensor, wearing purple, revealed above by some to be the color of pleasentness, is telling you NOT TO OPEN the box to your subconscious mind.. maybe containing the path that eventually will lead to INhumanity and potential power, but like what purple's opposite, green, represents, is NOT pleasent.. but you must decend into the dark before you can seek the light of enlightenment.

True. (in my view) I agree, i also think that this was one of H's points before.
It is in the nature of the conscious wanderer to weight his steps carefully and to never tread careless. We balance this with our drive to best reach our destination.
Its not the only way, far from it, but also I enjoy to tread this path.
enough of that ;D
I think all of the "translations" of the dream have brought up good points.
I have been throwing the scene around in my head for some days now. All my theories about the dream have that in common that i agree with opening the box in the dreamworld. To not open the box would be to quit the game while its most fun.
In real flesh life, there are countless boxes that i prefer to try and keep closed, but in the dreamworld i aim towards being a bald seeker instead of a careful wanderer. I cant always do it though, my instincts follow me also in the dreamworld. Still every step is a lesson, every breath, a knowledge.
I LOVE DREAMS.

Refinement is nothing to be afraid of, however it has made me wish I hadn't "opened the box" a few times More power to ya, and good luck. On the left hand is Red, and on the right hand is Green; between them lies a Purple pathway glimmering...
