My mother saw a dream on two different days. 1)On the first day, my mother saw three coffins from where arose, my mother's father, mother and her aunt(her mother's sister). Her aunt, inquired about her well-being. She then saw 2-3 kids (4-5 years old). 2)The next dream (another day) saw her going to a holy place with my father. My father said that he knew a shortcut to the place. They went through that way, but it was slushy. My mother was concerned about my father, as he had removed his slippers while walking through the slush. He then got a wood splinter in his foot and sat down..my mother was calling out for help..this was when she awoke.Ok, Ra, my guess is as follows: 1) The first dream-there will be further communication from my grandparents and my grand-aunt. There will possibly be a reincarnation of some sort-within the family. 2)My parents-going to a holy place-increase in spiritual life, meditations etc, with peace. Slush ,mailnly mud means come kind of healing at the root level(legs). Regarding the wood splinter, I have no idea.  Waiting for ur feedback, Seeker

Ok, Ben and I are finished playing with the tinkertoys, I have vacuumed, fed the dogs, gone to the hardware store, and changed Ben's sheets.  I only have time to give you a couple of impressions, and it would be good to ask your mother if they may apply before I start rambling.  I am seeing this a bit differently than you, so I could be way off. The first dream speaks to me of unconscious material "arising", and has everything to do with your mother's foundations, her roots, the core of her being, that which she gained from her parents. For some reason, I feel her aunt represents some quality, something positive that your mother associates with her - caring, perhaps (then again, it could be the polar opposite). It could also be that this unconscious material has its origins around the age of the children she saw in the dream, and I do not get a very positive feeling about it. And there is the number 3, three people. I seem to lean towards Jungian definitions with this one which states that 3 "can symbolize the beginning of a destined phychological course or the gathering of creative energies prior to actual creation." - Sandra Thomson The second dream, to me, seems to represent some sort of difficulty between your parents, as perceived by your mother. Perhaps she feels she is being mislead, or perhaps she feels there is something either she or your father does not under-stand (feet). Mud can symbolize healing, but I feel that here it symbolizes something akin to resentment, guilt, or difficulty with some aspect of her marital foundation. It is more like she is being "dragged through the mud" so to speak. Before I go on, I would like to know if any of this could be represented, if any of it strikes a chord with your mother. I know this is not exactly what you expected, , but this is what I see.  IP: Logged |

Ok, here are the replies after checking with my mom. Regarding the second part-My dad, had hurt himself while walking barefoot.He has a tendency to do that around the house, and Mom, keeps telling him not to go about barefoot. Thankfully, nothing else applied.Regarding seeing her parents and aunt-her mother was close to her sister. My Mom, anyways was closer to her mother and not her aunt. Sigh, wonder what all this means. Thanks for taking time out despite a tight schedule Ra. Seeker IP: Logged |

Seeker, since reading your reply, I have attempted to re-evaluate my interpretation, to no avail. I am only able to come up with some minor variations which do not really change the direction of what I see. It is sometimes difficult to do an interpretation through a "middle man (woman)", especially when there are very close ties, as in your case. There is a sort of mental gymnastics being played through, and emotional barriers. Plus, details can get obscured, or omitted, quite unconsciously.I am not trying to make excuses, because I could very well be wrong, but I get the distinct feeling that what your mother feels and what she says, especially to her loved ones, are different. This could be part of her protective nature, a caring thing to do, really - to not concern you with something that may be nothing. And it must also be considered that the material being presented in the dreams, in particular the first one, is of an unconscious nature - it may not have fully surfaced yet. So I should clarify some things. When speaking about your parents' relationship, I did not intend to imply that there may be something terribly wrong, on the contrary. This is normal. It just seems to represent a feeling of being taken for granted, to some degree - nothing traumatic. She has sacrificed much of herself for the sake of her family and marriage, and sometimes she probably feels as though she is being dragged along - nothing traumatic. After all, she and your father, in the dream, are going to a "holy place", it is just that the path taken is not necessarily her personal choice. She trusts your father, and she shows concern for him. OK, I will not push this line of thought any further, I have tortured you enough! And besides, I cannot seem to find another avenue that feels right to me. Personally, I think your mother is in for some major healing, and she will need the help of your father, and you. I am curious about what others here may feel this dream signifies, I could certainly use some help figuring it out! Anyone? IP: Logged |

Ra...I kinda got the feeling from the f dream that maybe her husband was trying to tell Seeker's Mom that most 'shortcuts' to Holy Places or the inner being (enlightment) might have some danger. The path was slushy and he did injure his foot. And apparently her mother, father and sister are worried about something coming up. That they 'appeared' to see how she was doing. Perhaps something related to her childhood, hence the 'children'. And try 4 or 5 years old. Which would tie in with what you saw in the dreams. Seeker...Ra is right. There is some sort of energy from your Mom that is 'jamming' the intuition. Maybe it is something unconscious that she doesn't want to face or to be revealed right now. Any way...that is what I saw, but Ra knows dreams way better than I do.  ------------------

Thanks Ra and Yivy. You told me what you saw. I need to ask my mom to open up more. Maybe, she feels that I will get het up (as it is she is worried about my ruptured disc), hence she has told me nothing more than what I told you. My father tells me that she was talking me, and as to how worried she was. She is a gentle, kind soul, very giving and forgiving. I will have a long long chat with her. Yivy, my mom's reactions-are they linked with me. She knows what I am going through and just wishes she could help...but it is a journey I have to walk alone. Thanks all of you,Sigh!
