Hello all,This is my first post here.
I know Amber and she said how wonderful this message board is.
I was just telling Amber yesterday, how I don't remember my dreams, that often. I had a very vivid on last night.
I dreamt this in the first 40 minutes I was asleep. I was in some kind of hotel... like in vegas..but it was rundown. I was there with Gilbert (soon to be ex husband) and a lot of friends and a bunch of other people. We would party and get all dressed up in ball gowns. When it was time to go to bed,we all went to this hotel room to sleep, but when we woke up we would be outside, under a tree....my son nick was there too...but he was youger than he is now. There was some other girl there and she shared the big batroom with us.. I thought I woke up a few times from the dream... But I think I was dreaming that.
At one point I got really really drunk, and could not find my room. I was stumbling around and lots of old people were in the lobby/ gambling area. I kept going up the lobby stairs and then be lost...finally I found my room and went in and the roomate girl yells at me to keep it down, even though I had just got there... but this upsets me... so I head back to the party... that is in a half building half cave thing and I am crying... I see people that are friends ( I dont know who these people are in real life) and they are mad at me. I am looking for Gilbert... and my teeth start falling out. But only 3...the one middle one is left. and they dont fall out in one piece... they are like tooth shaving or flakes. I collect them in my t-shirt( my clothes have changed) and I find Gilbert at the top of some stairs. I tell him they fell out and I an crying. He just shakes his head at me and hands me 3 boxes wraped up with Saturday, Sunday and Monday tags on them. I know they are nightgowns. He starts to leave... and I tell him I am not crazy that the teeth just feel out. I see Nick... and he has our cat Angel on a leash and she is orange color. He walks of in front of me. Everyone is gone. Nick is following Gilbert out. I am chasing Nick in a cave... but I can't catch him and then nick goes out side and the opening gets tiny and I can only fit my hand out. I look around and cry ... and then I woke up.

Hi cinamongirl! Welcome!
I believe your dream is a reflection of the breakdown of your marriage. The rundown hotel might indicate that your marriage has run down. A hotel is somewhere you stay for a while, nothing permanent. You associate it with those Vegas hotel - that made me think that your marriage once was really great. Vegas is also a place for play, fun and gambling. You go to sleep in the hotel room = you sleep in your marriage. And wake up outside= when out of the hotel/marriage you'll wake up, come alive again. The prescence of your son in the dream might be a reminder to think of him, since in the dream he is younger, that might indicate that you feel in this situation he needs to be treated like he was younger (maybe getting more care and attention?). The woman sharing the bathroom with you is probably reflecting another side of yourself, bathroom might symbolize intimacy, so this woman might show that you still share or want to share intimacy with your husband.
Getting drunk and get lost might indicate the confusion you feel, you can't find your way. The lobby area symbolizes the conscious you, the old people migth indicate old patterns, old habits or old thoughts. You want to go back to your room, to your marriage, the intimacy, the bed, but one side of you, this other woman, shouts at you because of this. You want to go back to the party... I believe the "party" might be a symbol of when your marriage was a party, when it was fun. Now it's in a cave=cage and it makes you cry.
The teeth falling out is an indication of something that once was fixed, your marriage, that you now loose. I think this is a very interesting point in your dream: The flakes falling off your teeth might indicate that this has taken place over time, little by little. But you still have one tooth left - it's not all gone. And you collect them and want to give them to Gilbert - this might symbolize that you try to communicate with him about this. But he shakes his head...
I don't really understand the part about the nightgowns, but hopefully someone else here might have some inputs on this.
Chasing the child might indicate that you're chasing the youthful, playful side of yourself, or maybe of your marriage, but that part's gone..together with your husband. And you're trapped. And again you reach out your hand (for your husband?).Reading the dream, I somehow got the feeling that you're not really ready for a divorce, and that it's a decicion that traps you? In the old times marriage was a party, but now you have the intimacy...Though you want to communicate with your husband..
OK, that was my thoughts, hope they can help. IP: Logged |

Wow... Thank you Stella.That really is right on.
My hausband and I split about a month ago. This was our second try at our marriage. We had been split up for 10 months in 2001, and got back together for 10 months. I had him leave. The teeth falling out is what has happened.
Every thing fell apart slowly... no intimacy and no communication, on his part. I felt traped in my marriage. Trapped by lack of money, traped by his jealousy and his mean spirt. I feel like me again. I lost me when I was with him.

Welcome, cinamongirl!Thanks Stella! I am not sure about the nightgowns, but they seem to indicate something about the subconscious, or unawareness. And why the boxes with Saturday, Sunday, and Monday on them?  And there is something about this orange cat as well - I will have to think about that.  IP: Logged |
