Last night I dreamt about being in a forest...I was looking at the green, green trees...and then I was before an ocean of purple water. I was walking towards the ocean, but was suddenly being pulled backwards. I believe at this time I was semiawake...and I recall saying "Kevin, where are you?"--Kevin being a friend of mine..not a love interest, just a friend..and he said "I'm right here, turn around"...I turned around and I was in an apartment. There was a party going on, and our mutual friend Jane was there grilling hotdogs and hamburgers. My sister Cathy was there, and she had 30 hotdogs to take home Ha..anyway, there was a funny skit going on, involving my sister Cathy. And I looked over at a couch, and Kevin was sitting like an Indian on it, and my husband Richard was beside him. I walked over to them, but never acknowledged Richard. I sat down in Kevin's lap practically, and he put his arms around me and was holding me. All the while Richard was beside me...seemingly oblivious to me. I woke having a really weird feeling about it...a really weird feeling...like...that was just not right..something about that was just not right. Any thoughts? IP: Logged |

The reason it did not feel right is because there is the lack of acknowledgement of unconscious proddings. Both the forest and the purple ocean are symbols for the unconscious. Can you not see the forest for the "green, green trees"? Are the emotions that are seeping in from the unconscious coloured in such a way that they cannot be approached (pulled backwards)? Your husband is oblivious to you in the dream, and this is a reflection of waking life, the way you feel. You need the "frienship" and the affection that Kevin provides in the dream. And the feelings in waking life towards him are ... friendship only? Oh yeah, "a friend of mine .. not a love interest, just a friend .." If your thoughts (thoughts, not what is physically the case) about him are in the friendship realm only, then his presence is symbolic of your needs. But of course, your subconscious could be hinting at emotions more hidden, secretive (forest). ... or not!   IP: Logged |

WOW! Thanks Ra! Those are some definite things to think about ....and yes, I think emotions are running rampid in me the past few days....I've had uncanny amounts of intuitive thoughts and feelings, sometimes overwhelming...I feel an urge to do some deep thinking about my marriage and what I really want from it. And whether or not my husband truly fits in my life...as of right now, I do not feel that he does. Many years of suffering emotional abuse from him has led me to the end of my road...and it's becoming obvious to my family, as they have pointed this out to me in the past few days as well. Then I have this dream...and I'm left thinking, what does all this mean? As far as Kevin is concerned, he is a dear, dear friend to me...but no love interest because number one, he is homosexual...and numbers 2-10 is he is homosexual So, I don't feel that I have hidden feelings for him because really that would be pointless. Besides he is too good of a friend for me to even begin to fathom that kind of relationship...not to mention..he's a homosexual. Did I mention he is gay? LOL! Very interesting Ra...thank you so much...I always look forward to reading what others think of the many dreams I have ...it helps me tremendously.. IP: Logged |

I may be way out of line here, and please take no offense if I am wrong, but I get the feeling, by reading between the lines, that Kevin may be gay?  So Kevin, any chance at helping Amanda out?  Seriously though, Kevin is attractive to you in some way (you did not deny it, you made exuses! ). In a general sense, he represents unity of masculine and feminine forces - a completion of sorts, which you lack. Welcome back Kevin!  IP: Logged |

I get a feeling that the purple water in your dream may represent the internet and more specifically this site(purple).I've had a dream before about this site involving water where I was almost certain the water represented the river or sea of energy of the internet.IP: Logged |
