 Not long ago I had the oddest dream.

I've never had anything to do with Artemis, not for lack of trying; she just never seemed intrested. Then a few weeks ago during the worst of depression, when everyone else had tried, and failed, and to pull me out of it I had a dream about her.

My dreams are usually groggy, but this one was very clear. I was at a school, and it was so gray and dark, and there were very few people in it. Then I went into this classroom and there was a teacher. I listened to her for a while then I walked up to her, and when I talked to her everything seemed clearer. It irks me unbelievably that I can't remember what was said. Then I looked down at her and, stick with me for a minute, I noticed she had multiple breasts, like that one statue of her. I'm not sure if it was just my mind looking for her because I wanted to see her or if it was some sort of divine meddling.

I'd like to hear any thoughts or opinions, I completely realize I may just be a weirdo...

very interesting, and especially the statue of Artemis w/ many breasts, I can't say that I have seen that form of her before...very interesting! thank you

I would think that what the dream felt like to you is what it is, be it divine meddlings of some sort or your imagination....be honest with oneself and that is what it must have been. If you meditate, you could possibly set up a sacred space on the astral plane and be sure to place windows/doorways at the East, West, North and South ...and during meditation go through the North door to meet with Artemis....you can practice beforehand with visualizing that image of her and your wish to be granted her presence during your meditations.

In my opinion, if your dreams are not normally very clear,  start writing down anything at all that you can remember from them down first thing before getting out of bed in the morning, and eventually details of all your dreams can be studied more clearly...and is a good tool for meditation or lucid dreaming, especially.

I can understand that feeling about certain gods not being interested.  Been there done that.  But she may have something to tell you now, for a specific reason.  Could it be that your depression relates to something to do with her areas of specialism, so to speak?  (Wild speculation, here).  I think in your position I'd try praying to her, making a libation etc.  Isn't it around the time of Thargelia now, linked to both Artemis and her brother?  I do have some sense of relationship to Artemis but more with Apollon.  I really felt a strong need to pay more attention to her as well, a couple of days ago.
