Does anyone have any esoteric knowledge on the nature of mirrors or paranormal experience with them? Ever since I was really young mirrors have always freaked me out to some extent. I had this set of nightmares I would get almost nightly/every nap time when I was really young (think 2.5-4 years old) about this one woman who would emerge from mirrors. Basically how everydream would go is she would emerge from a mirror somewhere in my house, I couldn't always see it but knew it was happening. Then from whatever room or where ever she was coming from she would repeatedly pop her head out and taunt me. This would progress to her telling me to do things like stop looking at her, fall asleep, etc, and would threaten me to do it. Then after I didn't do said thing, the dark haired woman clothed in orange and red would levitate me off my bed, and float me in the air, and then would proceed to run out and hit/beat me. This would continue in the dream until she would beat me so bad that I would die. These nightmares were very frequent as a young child and I still feel uneasy around mirrors even to this day, when I go to sleep I even flip the mirror in my room towards the wall, so the mirror side is covered up. Any interpretations on this dream are welcome too. Later in my life I did dream of this woman again, and she told me I could never escape her, I fought her and she fled, and hasn't returned again since.

its late & im sleep but this is my zone so I'll get you started & I'll try to get back to this thread when I wake up

the mirror is a paradox, its a curse, its a blessing, it is a mainstay of modern society. 
obviously the mirror is a 'portal' that shows the reflection of what is in front of it but is what you see in the mirror 'real' ? a perfect mirror shows what is, but how you interpret is based on your surroundings, close society like family and friends and also far society like leaders, institutions, media etc etc. these influences can cause you to misinterpret what you see if you are not someone familiar with the blade of truth and logic . do you think someone with anorexia see themselves correctly in the mirror ?
 the mirror shows you 'the real', but can it make you reflect upon yourself ? can the mirror reflect upon your life with a questioning eye ? 
now think of an author, sculptor, painter, the indie game dev . what they create, it 'reflects' them, a look into the core mind, a peek into the creative mind . 
 behind the mirror.
 behind the mirror,
behind the mirror it smiles upon you making your sense of the world . in the same form it laughs at those so blind with eyes that see. it is me, it is you, it is the world that has been growing since the first of us looked upon the still water and beheld the form of our outward being.
