I had a weird dream last night where I was babysitting my 6-month old nephew round at my Mum's house (she is no relation to him. He is my husband's sisters child). He was fast asleep all morning but around lunch he started stirring and I thought I'd better get his food and bottle prepared before he woke up screaming.

I asked my mum where Gran had left the formula milk and baby food and she just looked at me blankly. I ran out to the car which was parked diagonally up the drive and my elderly grandad was on the doorstep pulling faces at me to distract me. There was a crowd of people in next door's garden laughing at me too and I was so distracted that I reversed my car into the side of Mum's house.

For some reason, I had to drive to my own house before going to the shops for baby food. There was a graveyard in my front garden and I parked my car right over an old stone grave and went inside. I stripped my clothes off and started doing housework with a bath towel wrapped round me then my husband's mum called by and started gossipping and all I could think of was my nephew screaming in hunger at my mum's house and worrying how angry my mum would be that it could take so long for me to drive to the shop and back (it's only round the corner). When I finally left my house, there was an old lady holding a bunch of flowers for the grave I was parked over and she was screaming abuse at me even though it was where my driveway ought to be. I got in my car and made a 'gobby' gesture with my hand out of the window.

I never did get to the shops. The dream just kind of fizzled out after that.

Weird.

Hello Touchstone

I'll have to give this dream a little thought. That is a strange one.

This dream seems to be about nurturing issues - a need for nurturing or a need to nurture. And it seems that whatever this nurturing issue is, it either involves your mother or originates with her in some way. It could be suggested that you are being distracted from getting, or giving, the nurturing that you need, that maybe you feel misunderstood or nervous/anxious about this issue for some reason. Or possibly "nurturing" could be replaced with "responsibility".

The grave/graveyard in your front garden suggests that this issue concerns "buried" aspects of self which need to be acknowledged and tended to, as a matter of your growth.

Is there some kind of anxiety in your life concerning trust or responsibility?

Do you feel like you are hiding your true self?

Do you need to work on cleansing yourself of hindering aspects of your personna or attitude?

Is there an issue where you feel in the right, and you are overlooing consideration of others? Or maybe you are not receiving proper consideration?

What do you think?
