Secrets of Keepers – Keepers of Secrets

Finished watching “The Keepers” on Netflix a while back. A sordid tale of sexual abuse in the catholic church. It is more a tale of the cover-up of abuse. (A worthy binge which just gets crazier each episode…)

Murder was the catalyst of the revelation. Jane Doe was the fictitious name given to the woman who was first to come forward. It was a shocking expose’ which did not surprise me.

It is no wonder people ask me if I had ever been abused when they find out I was an altar boy. I know when I was called into the Pastor’s office to “discuss” why I stand up to authority, it was the first thing he asked me.

“The Keepers” is the likely source of my dream I had that last night we watched:

I was in a mansion or castle. It was obviously a meeting place of some secret group of elites.

An orgy was about to begin when a scream was heard from behind the door of a stairwell that led up. From the sound of it, somebody was killing another person.

The people in the party became very concerned and got dressed. Panic was about to ensue. I headed to another stairwell which went down. I descended, leading others out.

I notice that often, when I dream of stairs, I descend. I looked it up on dreammoods.com:

To dream that you are walking down a flight of stairs represents your repressed thoughts. You are regressing back into your subconscious. It also refers to the setbacks that you are experiencing in your life. If you are afraid of going down the stairs, then it means that you are afraid to confront your repressed emotions and thoughts. Is there something from your past that you are not acknowledging?

Who knows. (Help! Help! I’m being repressed!)
