THE DREAM I was lying face up on what appeared to be a bed, and a big snake (almost like an anaconda) was going over me slowly, it did not bite me but I was scared, then it felt like when it was mid-way over me and still moving, it began to suck my hand from its belly (which is weird right, because snakes only bit or eat through their mouth). The snake was a brown and black (moth like) colour. I was so scared that I woke up.
