Did you know I thank you wholeheartedly for your help tonight, kortie .... otherwise I'd still be locked out?
Did you know Claradoon that these are some of my recurring dreams (in extreme abbreviation):
- going to a pet shop from my childhood to see the kittens and simultaneously looking out the door of the shopping centre into the dark, realising I would have to walk home alone to my parents' house in deep snow? Kittens = warm, helpless, loving. But your own destiny is to go alone in the deep snow. Makes me think of the The Little Match Girl, looking at a warm happy home but destined to stand in the snow.
- being in the back or passenger seat of a fast car with no driver and having to reach around to take the wheel without being able to reach the pedals? Nobody is driving your car, your life. Nobody is caring for you, keeping safe your ways. Some would react passively but you feel obliged to try the impossible, reach the wheel and the pedals. You don't give up, ever. The dream might sound like a warning to stop trying so hard? Timing of dream: were you driving at the time?
- watching an airplane crash in the distance and pointing at it, but being more curious than alarmed? Responsible but remote. Emotional distance necessary to preserve the Self, who does not take in the horror?
- being in a big old house and the owners finally leave, so I can explore all the scary rooms that I've dreamed of before (it's always lucid), and sometimes the scary parts are upstairs but sometimes downstairs?Here you dream again of a house. Any link to recent dream about shower?
Big old house - contains all of scary secrets lurking beyond Self?
The owners finally leave - now you have the power to investigate?
I envy your lucid dreams; I've never done that.
