I remember dreaming that I was in a crowd full of people. I wasn’t sure where we were, I only knew it to be a large warehouse type building. The air felt charged with excitement and I knew nobody around me. Then suddenly from the back of the crowd someone yelled “we won!” And the rest of the crowd erupted in cheers. I remember the warehouse opening up to a blue sky and then I woke up.

Source & context

An anonymous adult participant’s complete English self-report from the morning after the 2024 United States presidential election, released with the Livingston, Putnam and Wamsley study. One survey report remains one account even if it recalls several scenes. The report records the participant’s dream and recollection, not verified events or an editorial political position. Participant identifiers, political ratings, demographics, waking-memory responses and other survey fields are not included. This is published research material, not a Synastry community submission or a new contributor count.
