Hey all,Woke from an unsettling dream this morning. was present at someone's wedding and funeral at the same time. At first I was standing in what seemed like a huge theatre for performances and witnessed the wedding of a couple of I didn't know. My parents were there and there was wedding music playing but it still didn't drown out the fact that there was a crowd behind this wall of stage equipment boxes witnessing a funeral. I felt bad that people weren't acknowledging that two events were happening. Then the wedding ceremonary ended and my parents walked away. Then I went to the funeral crowd and started helping unassemble all the stage equipment (big felt covered boxes) and some started to fall and there was big noise! then I began pciking off tape off the floor. Another part of the dream (maybe connected or not) involved my older colleague from work.He is a married man and I love working with him cause we get along great and he helps me if I need it). He and I were on campus (but it was a destroyed campus so we haad to climb over rocks) and then ended up in the buildings of campus looking for something. anyways, its been a while since I had a dream where I remember details!

Sounds like it might represent the feeling of the death of Self in some way and merging with another. A wedding might symbolize the end of one, or life as a single person and beginning of a union with another. The two taking place together signifying the feelings attached to the ceremonies and the feelings that come along with them. End of self and beginning of partnership.IP: Logged |

Dear T,Perceptive! I like the idea, particularly as the room in the dream was divided and I was more interested in the union/wedding taking place rather than the death on the other side. Perhaps this is a good sign? A willingness to take apart my individual self and be part of a union with somebody. Also I was "clearing" up in the dream, pulling the boxes which acted as barriers between the wedding and funeral down, it created a big noise but was ultimately beneficial. Interesting....

Hey all,Had a dream where I was in an elevator but an old one so you could see all the wires and pulleys and the sparks as the elevator went up. It was awful cause I was scared of falling from the elevator. It eventually came to a stop and I got out but it was scary. Another part of the dream involved my family I think. We were having to get across a river/ocean on these special wooden boxes. But the box kept leaking so water came in and I can't remember making and having to turn back. Unsettling feeling when I woke up. Sparkling IP: Logged |
