Hi all - relatively new here so hi and nice to meet you all  Just wanted to share a dream that I had a few months back which was so real I wondered what thoughts anyone has if any? In the dream I was helping to build a set with some other people for an amateur dramatic show and my little son was running around playing whilst I worked. Standing next to me was a guy in British army desert uniform who I was chatting to and he was saying he'd have to go back to Afghanistan soon. The conversation was fairly intense however what was spoken was actually quite innocent - it was more what was unspoken that felt powerful. I remember him saying that he was my partner's long lost brother and I told him he looked like his mother which made him squeeze my hand as if it had touched him. The odd thing is though that my partner has 2 brothers (one who was even in the military) but neither of which look like this guy and he certainly didn't look like their mum so I don't know why I said that! The dream ended with him just holding me very tight and stroking my hair. It felt very very real so much so that I had tears in my eyes when I woke up hoping he was ok and not in danger. Have no idea what this means especially the part about him being my partner's long lost brother but it was just so very real. IP: Logged |

hi seeker3030.themes/words that come to mind as i read about your dream:
protection
battle
comfort
safe
secure... do you seek protection or comfort from some "amateur drama" going on in your life? emotional comfort from someone qualified (in uniform)? long lost brother is lost on me...maybe familiarity... IP: Logged |

Hi electricmind and thanks for your thoughts
Yeah that makes sense in a way - I do sometimes seem to be unofficial 'chief cook and bottlewasher' in many areas of my life at the moment, and I suppose it was maybe a yearning for someone who I felt could protect me and assume more responsibility (uniform/rank) for something??? I've not had any dreams like that since but will ask for some clarity before I go to bed tonight and see if I can get any further with it. Thanks ever so much x IP: Logged |

Hi seekerDo you think that maybe the "long lost brother" is a part of your partner...maybe that is why you felt the unspoken words were more powerful than what he said...the way you felt when he held you and you telling him he looked like his mom... Could be you are tuning in to an aspect of your partner he is starting to express...does this trigger anything for you? Mystique IP: Logged |

Hi Mystique
That could be an aspect certainly but sadly because that's the direction I feel our relationship has started to take. We get on very well but since our son was born we've grown to be simply 'mummy and daddy' rather than what we were before. It could be that the dream was showing me the positive side of that aspect of our relationship, encouraging me to 'embrace it' and showing me I'd miss it if it were to leave (going back to Afghanistan etc)??
Thanks Mystique that's really helped xxIP: Logged |
