Darkness between the stars dream

This is a dream I had a few years ago.
I was floating in space - in deep space to be more exact. It felt like the "middle of nowhere", on a universal scale. Suddenly, the darkness between the stars in front of me turned into a creature with a somewhat humanoid form (or rather, lack of form).
They gave off huge Luciferian / devilish vibes. And I was talking to them. But I can't remember what we talked about.

I was impressed by their sheer size.
This being seemed to be as huge as a whole galaxy.
It felt like the whole cosmos had turned into the devil.
Then I woke up.


I somewhat have an idea now, what the meaning of the dream could be.
When I had the dream, I was living a very isolated life. I was with withdrawing myself from the world, from humans, from society - maybe even reality. I tried to put my energy only into 'higher" ideals, art, morality. I consciously decided to choose the "ideal" over the "real".
I think in my dream, the cosmos represents - the cosmos, the real, the everyday world, nature, matter.
And because I despised all this at the time, in my world of dream logic my mind perceived "the cosmos, reality" to be a devilry itself. Yet I was still drawn to it, indicated by the fact that I was floating in it and talking to it.

I guess this was a possible meaning of the dream.
Nowadays I try to take a more healthy stance, I no longer try to live my life away from humans, but to roam in reality once more.

I tried to recreate the dream in this image. It is not quite exact, as the being was all black, dark, like a void. But I tried to put the mood of the dream across in this picture.

The dream was very influential in the creation of the following release:
