Dreams For Peace 
I had two other dreams that I know that a meaning… A few months ago, a dreamt that I was looking in the mirror and Maggots started coming out of my face… Then two days ago , I had a dream that I was out eating dinner at a club/ restaurant with some people ( not sure who they were ) then all of a sudden I hear gunshots , everyone in the club started run. When I looked up, I saw an unknown man had been shot in the head . ( his forehead ) He didn’t appear to be dying. He was just standing there as if he would fall at any moment.
This is a response to Mrs. White,
When you look at the mirror and see maggots coming out, it means that a part of thinks of itself as pretty rotten because maggots come out as part of the recycling process when something is decaying. To solve this part of the dream you you can do the following. Everyday when you wake up, find something positive about yourself no matter how small or insignificant. Write it down in a journal. Then look in the mirror and tell yourself about the positive qualities that you have. It will take a lot of repetition to change the image of yourself.
The reason that you have this mirror image is that in the second dream you live in a culture where people are always being shot down. This means being put down. You would have a fear of being put down. You need a lot of repetition of things that lift you up which is mainly finding the positives in you.
I had a dream that my crush and I were in a children’s play area in a warehouse. The area was used as a game show. There were other people but they were strangers. We played together on the game show and then went into one of the play houses and kissed. Then I was waking up in bed and a big bag of money was at the end of my bed with my crushes name on it.
This is a response to Isabel’s dream,
Hi Isabel, Playing in a game show means that you should treat your relationship with your crush like a game. It should be playful and not too serious. When you get too serious, it doesn’t work. Take your time, be playful and have a good time. Be light.
Hi Richard
I’ve had a reoccurring dream when I was younger that stopped when I was eight. Recently the dream has been coming back and I just want to find out what it means.
It always takes place in the playground of my k-8 school and it always has me going through the air, wether I am thrown by someone or I have jumped myself. I go about fifty feet into the air from my elementary building and then suddenly fall on a giant rock next to my middle school building. I always end up standing up then walking away.
I always find this dream strange and I just want to find out what it means.
Thank you.
This is a response to Anna’s dream,
Dear Anna, The virtue that you were showing at that age is the virtue of resilience. It is actually one of the most important things you can learn as a young person because it means that bad things can happen, you can let them go, and just get on with where you are headed. There are a lot of bad things that happen because not everyone has positive motives in the world we live in. Having resilience is a huge plus for you. It will be incredible. I have taught physical education for many years and I can tell you that it is one of the virtues that every P.E. loves to see in their students. You have it.
I dreamt that there were 3 sharks swimming under my kitchen table and of course I was afraid to walk in the kitchen, but somehow ( still afraid to go in the kitchen) I ended up in there anyway ( still didn’t go towards the table) Then a bunch of mice started crawling around. The mice all came together and made a form of a five point star. Then Something told the mice to split up and scatter through out my house. So now I’m scared because I have mice and sharks in my house. Now I am terrified of mice in real life, I remember being scared of them in my dream but not as scared as I would’ve been had that situation happened in reality. I wasn’t t alone in my dream but I can’t remember who was with me.
This is a response to Mrs. White’s dream,
Hi Mrs. White, What you should know about animal dreams is that animals have a dark or negative aspect in dreams and also a positive side. This is because human beings also have two natures, your true self and your ego. Sharks when they are negative attack in an very aggressive manner and bite hard into prey. The kitchen is supposed to be the place where you would be nourished or where you prepare nourishment. In the dream world this means giving out nurturing kind of behavior or getting spiritual nourishment. Your kitchen has sharks which means that the kitchen is not a place of nourishing, but a place of attacks. This probably has to do with being judged for things not being good enough or people not liking what you do. It is the fear of being attacked when you are trying to give out nourishment. The mice are animals that scurry quickly from place to place and can go in all kinds of small places that others cannot fit into. The positive aspect of the mice is the ability to get a lot of things accomplished while going completely unnoticed or unrecognized for what you do. This is the advantage that mice have when they are positive. A shark in a positive sense means to be able to go aggressively after what you are seeking especially in the human interaction world. So when you put the animals together in yourself in means that what you can be doing is have a hugely positive effect on people when you go after doing positive things for them and do it in such a way that you don’t need recognition for it.
The two issues are recognition seeking and also the fear of being attacked when you put yourself out there. When facing a fear like this, it is best to do the positive things first in small steps like one on one with friends and then gradually do more. That is the best way to do it.
Dear Richard,
I don’t know if you need one specific dream in detail to interpret, or if you can simply interpret the recurring theme in my dreams I’ve had lately. I have been married for about nine months now, very happily. And although we have had our ups and downs already, like any married couple does, I want nothing more than to be with my husband, and I love him more than anything. We had another big fight about a week ago, one of those that started from me being moody and saying the wrong thing, and then spiraled from there. We got over it, though, and if anything I feel closer to him than I did before, and I have a new resolve to be better.
But lately I have been dreaming of flirting, kissing, dating, and being tempted to hook up with random guys that aren’t my husband. I don’t know these men, they’re made up. And most of the time I know I’m married, and sometimes I’ll refuse their advances.
In real life I would never ever consider cheating (I’m very religious) and I’m starting to get annoyed with these dreams that don’t reflect how I feel. What’s behind these?
This is a response to Katie’s dream,
Hi Katie, Thank you for sharing the information about your marriage. It is very helpful.
So the what you are flirting or being tempted with in the dream world is not so bad so you don’t have to worry. I think most of us have all cheated in our dream life. It has nothing to do with cheating in the real world.
What you are flirting with has to do with developing a new aspect of yourself. The men in your dreams have a spiritual quality that you need. That is why they show up. When you flirt with it, you are doing the beginning steps of inviting that quality into your life. It is not your husband because your husband does not have the quality, but the reason you get into fights is because you believe since he is a man, he should have that quality. What you need to do is to let him go, continue your positive relationship with him especially seeing his positive qualities and then working like crazy to develop the new aspect of yourself. It is masculine in nature, but as spiritual qualities really have no gender, it is just a metaphor to say that men come be more easily in most cases than women. It is usually something like being assertive or having an iron will or something like that. If you can remember anything about the men in your dreams, you can just meditate on what quality you are attracted to. Then crazy bring it into your life as if you were having a relationship with the men. It doesn’t hurt to be around a fair number of men with the quality in real life because then you can more easily develop it.
Since loyalty is a strong quality in you, you don’t have to think about the cheating as a possibility.
Dear Richard
I am having many dreams about being in Afghanistan as a US military recruit but this one dream I had recently bugs me. I wus in Afghanistan and we were apprehending a man for interrogation and he had a gun and shot me twice in my left leg. I passed out and woke up in the hospital. day’s later I return to the base to visit combat friends and every one said good to see your all right and stuff like that and this guy comes and beets my wounded leg and I push him off with my one good leg and beet the carp out of his face. He is sent back home and I return to the hospital.
-sincerely,
Madison
This is a response to Madison’s dream,
Hi Madison, The problem all starts when you put yourself in the middle of a war zone in the metaphoric world, which for you would be equivalent to a mental space. When you are in that kind of war-like mental space, you get your leg shot. This means that what is being hurt is your ability to get to where you want to go in your life. What you have to do to solve the dream, is move from war to peace. It is a simple move, but maybe quite challenging for you. To be at peace with yourself you need to see the world as a beautiful place and you as a positive source of inspiration and help to others.
If you were to go into the military, you would want to be in a situation where you are saving lives and helping others.
The problem with being at war with others is that it puts you into a space of protection rather than one of seeing positive possibilities.
Dear Richard,
I don’t know where my dream began. I just know where I can remember it from. Often times my brother comes over to my house to spend a few days with my mom and I- as since my parents have gotten divorced.. he stays mostly with his father.
In this part of my dream, he has come over, and he lays himself down in an obscure space, behind my large computer desk, in my room – and begins to play a game. Automatically, I assume he is playing a video game we both really like. And as per usual, when he’s around- I do everything I can to try and accommodate him. Per usual I ask if he needs anything to eat, or drink, anything at all. But in the end all he wants is a blanket, or some sort of material, draped above him, to act as some sort of blockade- because as is it in real life, he likes privacy.
Just shortly after, I try to watch what he is a doing, and before I know it- the game he is playing, is all that my dream is. I zoom in on a world where it isn’t even a real existing game. There are hordes of slightly bird people, with several types of evolution and how close they are to birds.. And a cityscape that is ” lifeless ” – almost like a browseable backdrop.
My dream shifts, and I am sitting in a bathroom with some people- talking and they are meant to be going out and doing things, and they decide to dye their hair, with me around. I plead with them not to get dye on the surfaces, only out of necessity of not being yelled at by my parents, and they all take issue with me and leave..
Later on, they are walking away from me and getting catty, and as I leave the area, I go to go inside, and one of the girls I had been walking with- some of whom I slightly recognized from school or maybe TV, she comes in behind me, whilst I’m apparently living in some lavish house.. And she sits down at the table and she’s like ” I’m sorry I was like that to you- it’s just that I was informed you wouldn’t.. be like this.. You’re not how we expected, and I just don’t like that. ” –
And when I look down, I’m wearing a dress, and heels, and make up.. and just covered in womens clothing. And I say to her, and the girls who have filtered in with her- and are all agreeing, ” What ..oh you mean this?! I just wanted to fit in with you guys.. ” – and they all just shook their heads and were like no . ” And I’m like- well these clothes make me uncomfortable, I would rather put on my proper clothes anyway. ” – and so I start changing back to wearing my mens clothing and putting on accessories and things of that nature- when a gay parade just starts marching through the large area.. And I’m sucked into it a bit, watching this woman bounce a child, and I become some man- not even myself, standing there watching her and talking to her in Spanish..
Shortly after.. I become an elderly man, with a wife.. whom is dying in a valley of snow and mountains in the background, and she’s begging him not to go, but she’s accepted that it’s his time all at the same time.. He has a long beard and his eyes glaze over, almost like he’s possessed.. I see him make a large circle in the snow, and I know theres a number in there, but I don’t know it yet.. And then he dies.. with his arm sticking straight up..And almost like as if it were a documentary, my dream shifts to have a voice over, and it says something about ” The signs were left in other places with other numbers.. So and so’s numbers ..were left 6,7 but the first number found was 9. ” – so the sequence was 9,6,7 . But when I feel like they were possibly going to find the first number ever left, which was maybe a 1, it’s in this pitch black sort of half computer, half industrial warehouse.. And a man, with no shirt on, and a group of people who are walking around, this man comes scuttling through the darkness sideways at my vision, with white glowing eyes. And I see as I look down into the darkness, a photograph of this moment, and for some reason, recognize this man- as having been a ghost.. that no one else knew or had seen him. And this is where I think the number 1 was going to come from, and I’m guessing all these instances, pertaining to my dreams atmosphere, were to say that they came from spirits answers..
As I often have dreams about dark, ghostly things. It doesn’t help that I believe in ghosts and malevolent spirits.
– Sincerely,
Kilian
This is a response to Killian’s dream,
Hi Killian,
The difficulty you have in this dream comes when you get into being the same hidden and covered up self that your brother has become, no doubt related to the environment in your household. The main structure of the dream is that everything becomes so unreal, like in a fantasy kind of land that is mostly negative. That is what the ghost world is to you.
So the thing that will really work for you in a great way is to approach the real world in a much more positive way. It is as if you and your brother have to shed the blanket-self and live fully in the real world in a very positive way. It helps when you actually visualize positive happening and then doing it. The key, of course, is to start small and then get gradually larger with positive projects. Then the ghosty things will gradually disappear because they are your own inner creations. They are not in the positive part of the real world.
Hello Richard,
I’m really confused because I have two crushes. I love the first girl since October 2013 and the second since March 2014. I have never talked to the first one, but I have tried many times to approach the second girl, without luckiness. I know that I love the second girl, but the first girl seems interested in me. I’m so confused.
So, sorry for the long introduction, but I had to tell you the situation. My dream, that I saw two nights ago, was something like that: I saw that my first crush came and talked to me telling me about her name and it was like she wanted to know me. Later, I saw that I came across my second crush and as I tried to approach her, she got shocked and let her books drop.
I would really appreciate your interpretation.
This is a response to Ronald’s dream.
Hi Ronald,
The problem in general for you is that while you have a crush on the girl, you do not have enough interaction with either girl to have a decent relationship. It would appear from the dream that you are going to get more out of being in relationship with the first girl. I am not sure that the second one would be ready to have a relationship with you. There is something positive inwardly about the first one that makes a relationship with her much better and more interesting.
I dream about running down a hallway begging for mercy! But two guards in Spanish like hats are restraining me. I am wearing a large dress to the floor.But I am a man”
This is a response to Gavin’s dream,
Hi Gavin, In your dream you are dressed like a woman because you feel really weak when you are begging for mercy and being restrained. You don’t feel your manly virtues because of the overwhelming force of being helpless. What you have to do in order to solve this dream is to develop an iron clad belief that you can achieve whatever you set your mind to regardless of the bad things that happen to you or how bad the leadership that you work or have to be under.
I’m 17 and ever since I was little I’ve only dreamt about bad things. Like me getting raped,chased,kidnapped, or about to get murdered. I don’t undersrand why, I’ve never had any of those experiences. Could you please help me? Thank you.
This is a response to Alyssa’s dream.
Despite the fact that you have not been raped, chased, kidnapped or about to get murdered in the real world, these things have happened to the life you are meant to live, to your true self living in the real world. This probably happens because there is a big disconnect between what the culture expects you to be and what your inner life wants you to become. To move to the the life your true self wants to live you have to learn how to ignore the pressures and forces that take you away from yourself and then begin to live fully into who you truly are.
Thank you for your interpretation Richard. Here is one I had last night (and posted on my Facebook page).
In the dream I am by some water, like Chippewa Creek in Niagara Falls where Gracie and I went for an over-night on the weekend. In the dream she is doing her “defiance” thing, which I realize is really just a game for her so she can see what I want. When I see that I get angry/annoyed and I need a break from her so I leave her by the water and go to get food.
I’m at Subway ordering and I order a special sandwich for her and then one for me. As I’m chatting I say to the guy that I am gluten-free and he flinches because it doesn’t make sense because I am ordering a sub. Okay I tell him, sometimes I have wheat but mostly not too much and then I say, hey let’s switch it to a wrap. And I decide to give one half to Gracie and one half to me.
When I think of her suddenly I realize I made a mistake to leave her by the water alone. “Oh, what have I done?…” I tell the server that I’ll be back soon and I rush out to get her. I find her in a wooded area, near water, a stream, one I haven’t been to before. She seems okay at first but then I can tell something is wrong. There is a guy hovering around and he looks suspicious. I watch him to see what he does.
He pulls out a cigarette and I see drug items on him and then ask and he tells me he gave Gracie some drugs when she was down by the water without me. Now I am holding her in my arms and hugging her, asking if she is okay? Asking him what he gave her, what he did? He thinks it’s no big deal and when I see her I can see she is fine even though it was a disturbing event.
So then I take Gracie back home and we have a meal and she is playing in the house. Somehow my mom and her husband show up and they say it is Christmas and they want to deliver presents. It is a bright July afternoon and not Christmas but I say to them, okay, do as they wish. So they say they want to wrap presents in the back room and I show them to the door.
I go in and Debbie/I move a blanket from the end of the bed aside. She looks at me as though she thinks I am hiding something under the bed and I might not want the blank or bed moved but I am fine with it. I we move it over and there is nothing there and I just shrug as though I’m saying, “see” and she is a bit annoyed with me that I have nothing to hide, no secrets.
I spend a few moments with them inside and they start bringing the presents out of the bag and holding them and admiring them, showing one another what they got. At first I expect they will soon put them down and start wrapping them, as they said they would, but then they just continue, putting clothes to themselves to see if things fit, laughing about the deals they got, praising one another for the good purchases.
I realize this has nothing to do with me and they have their own plot and intentions and I just slowly walk out the door. They don’t even notice I’m gone.
I go back to the kitchen where I see Gracie and she sits on my lap close. She tells me a bit about what happened by the water. It is hard for me to hear because I wish I wouldn’t have left her but I see she is okay and there is actually a really nice feeling in sharing and in the room.
It’s a bright white kitchen, clean, organized, with sun coming in the window, with a little plant hanging above the window by the sink. Really the feeling of a happy afternoon.
——————————————————————————-
There is another dream I just remembered where Gracie and I are looking for a home for a cat overnight. I am holding this orange fluffy cat in my arms and we knock on the door of a neighbour. We are still by the water, Lake Erie, along the boulevard. Two youth in their 20s open the door and I ask them about keeping the cat for the night. They say no at first but then we keep talking about where can we put it and share ideas. Then I hear a student from Gracie’s class is there. They finally say okay they will keep it for the night and we agree to get it the next day. As we are walking away there is a bit of commotion and someone saying something to me about informing others that their conversation with me is public. He says something like, “You’ve got to remember to tell people their conversations with you may be public.” Because when I opened the door and had the conversation with the man at the door there was the student listening so that meant the public was listening or something like that. I said okay.
Dear Richard,
I had a dream of this guy who I didnt think of at all for a long time, not even before i went to sleep, until this dream, where for some reason he’d popped up into it. I don’t like this guy nor never really actually did like him because he tried to get with me when he was in a relationship with someone else. I denied his attempt and made him keep a promise to me that he wouldn’t cheat on his girlfriend again (he has before) because she is a nice person. I haven’t heard from him since my freshman year of highschool (im graduating). My dream was of him coming to me and giving me compliments such as telling me I am beautiful and had grown so much, as well as trying to get his arms around me. I was flattered at first, but then I had asked him what he was doing there and if he was still in a relationship. He said he was, but didn’t care and said he would still try to get with me because I was beautiful..I walked away discusted and told him I’d thought he’d changed but he did not. What does this mean? Can you help me understand?
This is for Crystal’s dream,
Hi Crystal, This is a really good sign for you because you are so strong in the dream in your ability to reject someone who has such bad motives even when he is complimenting you. This is a pattern that a lot of men use. They try to be charming so that they can gain a short term advantage only to dump you in a short while when the thrill is over. They do a lot of lying and cheating. For someone reason you need to be reminded of this ability you have of seeing through the charm and being strong in having the virtue of loyalty.
Hi Richard,
Thank you for writing a response to my dream about the clean house and the truck. I am still processing how to respond to this…but in the meantime I’ve had another dream.
In the dream it is night time. I’m feeling a little restless, like I want to do something and there’s nothing to do. Then a guy comes over and invites me to go dancing. I say yes right away and know it will be fun. There is a bit of confusion or chaos around me…who is doing what..and where people are going. It seems people are trying to sort somethings out. It doesn’t seem like they need my assistance with that at all so I let them be. I see Gracie is fine and well-taken care of and then get ready for the dance.
The dance is in a house that looks like one of those old London houses, all attached on a street. We go inside and it’s darker then I expected and i think I see my sister in the shadows. She’s been talking to others about me in a negative way and made the environment so that I can’t just be myself because others are suspicious and judgemental. So I think I have to tell the guy I have to leave and when I go to find him I see he’s at the snack table eating chips without any clothes on.
I am so surprised I want to laugh but don’t want to offend him either. I just approach him, light-heartedly…I think it’s time to go, I tell him. He’s oblivious to the negativity in the space around us and doesn’t know why I want to go and I don’t want to tell him because I don’t want to speak ill of anyone so I just say it’s time to go and am asking him to trust me.
Hi Rachel,
In this dream the virtue that works is trust, both you trusting to go forward and his trusting you when you ask him to go forward. No clothes just mean he isn’t hidden in a role. The dream wants you to let go of the kind of intrigue your sister used to do by trusting the dancing. That is what is open.
I had a dream that me and my sister was on a bus with alot of people that we didn’t know. My sister stood up and said I want everybody to get off the bus to get something to eat and come back on the bus or you will get killed. I said, so we gotta cone back to the bus? So everybody came back but us. We ran and ended up in something like an abandoned airplane, i found a soft spot and started digging so that we could escape but my sister tried to hide in the front where the pilot sit but the way the guy that was in charged looked in there they saw her first and came and got her, i still tried to hide so they don’t see me. One of the last guys to look around looked a long time and still didn’t see me. Some how the guy in charge came back and found me but I fought him off and stomped him. In the same place my daughter and son and fiance was helping me pack things that we may need on our escape…that was their first time coming into the dream. Then the dream switched to my momma, me, and my uncle, that just graduated from a two year rehab program, sitting down talking about how he was getting ready to get married and how much the lady loved my uncle. I waves my hand and said “you ain’t the only one” then the dream switched again to me, my dad, my uncle, and my fiance being in the same room. I don’t think we were talking but I looked over to my uncle and fiance who were sitting beside each other. I saw my uncle wisper something in my fiance ear then all of a sudden my fiance turned around and started rubbing his face on my uncle cheek then they kissed. The first time it was a simple kiss then they proceed to kiss again but it was a tongue kiss. I immediately felt betrayed, disrespected, and embarrassed so I walked out. I can’t remember if I was crying or not but I heard my aunt talking about how if she had to deal with me and my attitude how she wouldn’t date me if she was a guy. Like basically telling my fiance that he shouldn’t deal with my attitude. Then she said something about me not having my hair done all the time. I can’t remembering if this was after our before the airplane thing but I remember that while we were packing for my escape, I asked my fiance, if you know it hurry me why did you do it and he said he kissed me so I kissed him back. Which didn’t satisfy me by any means then I woke up.
Hi, In this dream you and your sister are having a really difficult time getting to where you want to go. This means that you are having a hard time getting to where you want to go in your life. You end up getting in trouble and running and hiding instead of getting to where you want to go. The problem seems to be the men in your family and your fiance. They are kissing each other which means that they are only really interested in themselves and not in you. You are right to dissatisfied. You should really consider strongly whether or not he is the right person for you. He doesn’t seem to be according to the dream.
Hi I am a mom of two and have not had dreams like this at all could you pleas help me to understand it ……. in my dream I’m at a gas station with what looked like to be a bunch of people that apeared to be my friends it looked as if we were on a trip like a vacation because we were putting gas into a bus and wearing vacation clothing when all of a sudden my side starts hurting extremely badly I start to push onto my side and as I’m pushing there is something pushing back and once while pushing I felt like a small foot but all of the pain is going on in my rib cage and out of nowhere I have no idea how I found out that in my dreams I was 7 months pregnant what does this mean?
This is a response to Lanesha’s dreams,
The context of the dream is for you to be able to relax and be in a vacation mode. The gas station means that you are trying to get the energy. The part of being pregnant means that you are pregnant with the possibility of having a vacation like self inside. 7 months pregnant means you are close to being there. A vacation like self is part of you that realizes that you need to have time to relax and enjoy yourself. When you have this part of you, then when you are in your working mode, you can do a lot more in a lot less time.
I saw a generator in my dream
This is for Chambers dream. A generator in the dream means something that generates energy to do things. So what you can think about is how you can generate more energy in your life to get things done that you want to do. It means that you probably have to let go of doing things that waste your energy or depress your energy.
I had a dream that there was a king cobra snake in my house that almost bit my son but then I reached down to grab it behind the head and ended up fighting with it and ended up getting bitten a good number of times. Long story short about 40 minutes later (in the dream) no one had taken me to the hospital or bothered to call 911. What does this dream mean?
This is a response to Stephanie’s dream.
When you have a cobra in a dream, you should immediately start thinking about who is poisoning your life with jealousy by spreading negative things about you then work on becoming really detached from them. The problem with fighting with poisonous people is that they are really good at the games they play to bring people down. The correct metaphor is not fight with the snake, but dissociate from the negative talk and backbiting. Then you can begin creating a really positive home and self by finding positives in others.
Hi,
I’m already working yet I dreamt of someone giving me an exam paper and as I was answering the exam, I saw a grey/white cat and a dark blue flying eel towards me. The cat tried to scratch me but I threw a white blanket at it. The eel just stared the flew behind my back and attacked or pecked me. What did it all mean? I heard that dreaming of a cat is bad. Is it true?
I hope you get to read and answer my question. Thank you in advance and God speed!
This is a response to Vinna’s dream,
When you are already working but taking an exam in a dream, it means that you fearful of being examined or judged for what you might be doing. Negative cats and eels are symbols of people in your environment who are likely to attack you. What you need to do is be a confident cat and eel in a positive way which means to be confident that you can have your own thoughts and act independently in an aggressive way toward your goals.
Any animal that is negative in a dream is a negative symbol because it is showing you a type of energy present in your environment. Your job is turn them into positive assets that you can use in a positive manner.
Hi Richard,
Thank you for your reply. I am just reading it now. It will take me some time to process what you wrote and I would like to write again soon.

Hiya
I’ve awoken scared, & screaming
I saw a hand and arm coming at my face in the dream and again apon awakening whilst screaming.
Beforehand I am seeing my self as somebody else & I flit from being that person to seeing them. I am sick & injured lying and waiting for attention I am buried in sand and funnelled then by a giant funnel web spider, I am hearing the story as this is happening seeing it and also then experiencing it.
As the spider leaves I am free
I then in then fall off my childhood bed in an attempt to get attention because I’m sick and see a hand and arm coming at my face from the bed above. I then wake up see the hand coming at me again and realise I’m screaming.
This is the best I can remember it.
It has scared and confused me
I am terrified of spiders but was quite ok and calm about this one in the dream.
This is a response to Penny’s dream,
Hi Penny, Ok the goal of the dream for you is become like a really positive spider inside. This means that you are able to weave a positive web that transforms people’s lives in a positive way. What you are fearful of is a negative feminine figure, maybe your mom. When you let that go, you will find that you can reach out to others in a positive way and bring positive energy to them.
The reason that you see yourself as someone else is that when you have the fear of negative spider, then you become someone else and then fear that someone is going to get you.
But your true self is a positive spider that weaves a positive web.
