Topic: Dream Stele


  
  Thutmose IV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He suppressed an uprising in Nubia in his Year 8 around 1393 BC and was referred to in stele as the Conqueror of Syria, but little else has been pieced together of his military exploits.
According to Thutmose's account on the Dream Stele, while out on a hunting trip he stopped to rest under the head of the Sphinx, which was buried up to the neck in sand.
Some Egyptologists theorize that because Amenhotep II did not name Thutmose IV his co-ruler, he did not intend for him to be his successor and that the restoration of the Sphinx and text of the Dream Stele was meant to bestow legitimacy upon his unexpected kingship.

 Maarek Stele - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Maarek Stele is the son of Marina and Kerek Stele, born on Kuan, a forgotten backwater world in the Taroon system in the Outer Rim Territories that had been locked in a conflict with Bordal (another planet in the system) since around the end of the Clone Wars.
Stele is an independent and forceful man, who learns to keep his thoughts to himself during training, but also asks questions of himself.
Stele has a meteoric rise through the ranks of the Imperial Navy, quickly becoming a highly decorated ace pilot, and regarded as one of the very best starfighter pilots in the Empire (only Baron Soontir Fel and Darth Vader were more highly regarded).

 Maarek Stele - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Maarek Stele was the son of Marina and Kerek Stele, born on Kuan, a forgotten backwater world in the Taroon system in the Outer Rim Territories that had been locked in a conflict with neighboring Bordal since the end of the Clone Wars.
After his first mission, Stele had a strange dream of the Emperor in which Palpatine said, "You have been called upon to join us, for the good of all beings, you are mine." The dream would be be quite prophetic, and may well have been a vision sent to him by Palpatine through the Force.
Stele is the official player character (regardless of what pilot name is entered, in the same manner as Keyan Farlander and Ace Azzameen) in the 1994 game TIE Fighter and its subsequent expansions Defender of the Empire and Enemies of the Empire.

Stele said that it was a good plan, though he should sleep ill if he were watched by one who came not of her own will.
She was to wake Stele when the sun showed, which was not yet, but she saw the pallor of the disc of the setting moon, which told that the greater light was advancing upon it, though it might yet be under the horizon line.
Amul's dream was that he should go forth, and never return; that he should kill Stele, and take his sister, as he had meant to have her before.

 Egypt: Perchance to Dream: Dreams and Their Meaning in Ancient Egypt   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Since dream interpretation was not an exact science, some interpreters based the meaning of a person’s dream on whether he was a follower of Horus (in which case he was considered an equable person) or whether he was a Seth worshipper (short tempered).
This moved the dream state from a private experience at home to the dream temple of the god, and it was referred to as dream incubation.
Even though dream interpretation was important to the culture, the ancient dream texts were not very precise and similar dreams were sometimes given different interpretations, leaving a lot of room for personal interpretation.

 S. Fowler Wright – Dream
So Stele went; and she sat until she was aware that the hut was watched, and she thought that there would be questions asked as to where Stele and Rita were, and she was afraid, being alone.
Stele would have looked at it with judging eyes, counting the men that must have toiled for the making of so great a thing, and wondering how the stones were smoothed; but Rita thought it a foolish toil for a poor end.
Stele spoke to her once or twice, calling (as it were) from the mist that was in his own mind, and when he found that she did not heed he had a fear that she was already dead.

Of these (the dreams) which come through (the gate of) ivory are dangerous to believe, for they bring messages which will not issue in deeds; but (the dreams) which come forth through (the gate of) polished horn, these have power in reality, whenever any mortal sees them.
Penelope does not mention dreams speaking or standing next to a sleeper, but does seem aware of them as entities existing independently of the sleeper's mind, which may indicate that dreams were generally accepted as external but not as people, per se.
In most dreams, it is Asclepius himself who appears, but regardless of whether it is the god or someone else who performs the healing in a dream, whoever appears does so as himself, seeming to have no need to take on the appearance of someone known to the sleeper.

 Dynasty 18 - Amenhotep II, Tuthmosis IV,
The Pharaoh Tuthmosis IV, is probably most famous for his Dream Stele, that can still be found today between the paws of the great Sphinx at Giza.
In Tuthmosis IV's Dream Stele, he tells us that, while out on a hunting trip, he fell asleep in the shadow of the Sphinx (or apparently, the shadow of the Sphinx's head, for the monument was apparently buried in sand at the time).
He was apparently the son of Amenhotep II by his wife, Tiaa, but Egyptologists speculate whether, because of the wording of the 'Dream Stele', his claim on the Egyptian throne was legitimate.

The date on the "dream stele" was conveniently set aside and the stele was interpreted as the product of the young king, nearing the end of his eight year reign, taking a retrospective look back in time to the circumstance which led to his kingship.
The dateline of the "dream stele", and the language of that same monument, absolutely demand that the reign of Thutmose began when that king was an adult reasonably advanced in age, i.e., that a significant length of time intruded between Thutmose's dream and his accession to the throne.
In 1904 Erman determined that the sphinx stele of Menkheperure was inscribed sometime between the end of the 22nd/23rd dynasty and the beginning of the 26th Saite dynasty, precisely where we have dated the king by this name.

 The Famine Stele: hieroglyphs on pyramids construction
A stone stele is engraved on a rock at the island Sehel, near Elephantine, Egypt, north of Aswan.
Called The Famine Stele, it was engraved during a recent epoch, under the Ptolemees (200 BC), but certain reliable clues have led egyptologists to believe that, in an amplified form it had already become an authentic document by the beginning of the Old Kingdom (2,750 BC).

dreams, and they attached considerable importance to them; the figures of the gods and the scenes which they saw when dreaming seemed to them to prove the existence of another world which was not greatly unlike that already known to them.
The knowledge of the art of procuring dreams and the skill to interpret them were greatly prized in Egypt as elsewhere in the East, and the priest or official who possessed such gifts sometimes rose to places of high.
Since dreams and visions in which the future might be revealed to the sleeper were greatly desired, the Egyptian magician set himself to procure such for his clients by various devices, such as drawing magical pictures and reciting magical words.

 Frame of Reference - Septimus Stele
Since dreams are most often about events in life anyway, it is only a small leap of faith to assume that dreams might be associated with the future as much as with the past.
If we assign a low probability to a dream matching the future, say one in 10,000, the probability of having a non-matching dream is very high.
For a year the probability of having non-matching dreams is.964, very high, but this leaves 3.6% probability that a matching dream will occur sometime during a year.

The most accomplished judge of dreams, whose ability to examine the similitudes is a function both of nature and of art, compares the similitudes of the vision to celestial affairs, to the place and suffering and psychological composition of the dreamer.
He goes on to indicate that the same dream must be interpreted differently in the case of king and commoner, rich and poor, man and woman.
