I was dressed in armour atop a white horse:
One night back in 1985 I decided to go to bed early as I had had a very stressful week. It was during my deep sleep that I suddenly found myself in full armour riding atop a white horse through a dimly lit forest. It appeared to be early in the morning and I remember feeling the muscles of my horse beneath me as we made our way through the brush, I could even hear the branches squeaking against my armour. I was wearing gauntlets and holding a long upright lance to my right shoulder.
The main thing I remember was that the armour was very uncomfortable and so I lifted my visor to enjoy the cool crisp air. Suddenly I noticed a man to my right crouching behind a tall bush, he was wearing a blue surcoat and helmet and armed with a heavy spear. My heart started pounding as I lowered my lance and just as suddenly awoke from my dream.
I leaped out of bed and scared my girlfriend half to death. My heart was pounding even harder now as I ran around the room trying to figure out where I was. I know it sounds funny but I was extremely frightened, I kept asking her who she was and running around the hall looking for my horse.
In my minds eye I could see him down the hall waiting for me but could not reach him. I ran into the living room and sat on the couch shaking like a leaf, I kept telling her over and over that I needed to get back. It must have taken me about 5 hours to calm down, I though I was going to have a heart attack. I even took a couple of cold showers but still to no avail.
Later that week I called my father in Idaho and told him about what had happened. He seemed very curious and asked me when exactly this dream had occured. When I told him there was utter silence, at that precise moment when I had awoken from my experience, his Palamino horse had died in his stable.
Later on I related this same story to a psychic in Los Angeles. She told me that I had been killed by that soldier hiding behind the bush. What that experience did for me was to give me an inner strength that I still carry to this day. I even chose the White Horse as my emblem and also as part of my screen name "Cheval" (French for Horse).
