Hi people
I had a dream last night which had a mixed set of events.
Scene 1 : I saw a girl around 7 or 8 being pregnant! In the dream atmosphere, I feel very sorry for her, that she had been abused at this young age. There was one man who was trying to wake her up, but she doesn't. I was watching all this like watching a movie. Everyone including me panicked that she died. After sometime she started groaning out of pain and the scene ended there. In one way I was relieved seeing her alive. This was a very disturbing dream sequence I should say.

Scene 2: I was washing my face with a facewash near a holy tank. I used the tap water which was flowing from the holy tank. There are people around me and I sense there were people pertaining to my profession. Before I completely finished washing my face, everyone of them except me and another person, ran away from the place. The water suddenly stopped flowing from the tap, before I was cleansed fully and the place began to move horizontally leaving the holy tank.

Can someone give me some insights on these dream sequences?

Thank you

Hello Cathy

I want to tread carefully here and take this in small steps. If you become uncomfortable with the direction I am going in, please let me know.

There are indications that there is material within your unconscious that has been buried for a long time and may be on the verge of emerging into your conscious awareness (the girl is showing signs of awakening, she is alive). It was "like watching a movie" … this is a device often used by the subconscious mind to remove one from the direct effects of difficult or painful emotions/material emerging from the unconscious, which is what we see happening (she started groaning out of pain).

Are we okay so far?

Hi Ra
Thank you for taking the interpretation of my dream. Yes I agree with the way you are taking it. What kind of emotions would you associate these incidents with? To say, I was really very disturbed by this particular dream.

Did a man in your life interacted with you in an inappropriate way as a child???

Perhaps you did not make a big deal about it then but now you feel ready to process this and the feelings of not feeling clean as a result of this experience are arising in the dream.

Just brainstorming, I could be way off.

Hi amelia,
Thank you for your thoughts. I do remember 2 or 3 incidents where I found a few people's touch unpleasant when I was a minor. But yes as you say, I didnt find it a big deal after sometime, as I was lucky enough to escape from anything big damage happenning. But I cant deny that it is very disgusting to even recollect them.

I actually often see these kind of dreams come up if people are working on themselves/starting to uncover what it actually is what they feel/think about a situation/life/getting the power back. It's like then submerges how much of our thoughts are actually put upon us by society based on mere images. A common mix-up often comes up when looking at these dreams that it may be actual 'abuse'. Which then gets very slippery.

I would read this along the lines of realising how much conforming actually has been taken place. Especially in regards to women.
The young girl=aspect of you. Pregnant=ideas planted there. The movie reflects back on your experiences you have had in life so far/life review in regards to being a girl & ideas in regards to that. Maybe there's things you would like to live out, but it's still considered inappropriate. Mainly because that is what you've been taught (patriarchal society). The pain heard/felt is the pain to not being able to fully be and act out who you are as a person.

This is indeed intense dreaming & unfortunately those very old ideas about what it is to be female are fed to us from the core. Freeing yourself first from those (to be able to obtain a new objective) is often painful. It doesn't refer to actual (physical) abuse. The dreams would speak in different symbolism then. I'm responding to this thread, because if the symbols in dreams will be translated literally, it can be very harmful.

That doesn't mean that this "denying of the core" very much feels restricted & like years of psychological abuse (of the collective).
Hope I put this across right & it's not too abstract.
I'm still on my LL-break
Hope this may have given you some insight

Edit (as usual): without the past/psychological layers. It could also indicate you've been working into something that's very dear to you while in reality you were just a bit young/inexperienced. People in your environment basically took advantage of that & disregarded it, leaving you bery dishevelled. Something along those lines. The overall theme should be found when looking at the environment, where are you? Who are the other people? Etc.

How do you feel about what Twirl has said? Do you feel like the dream could be about the work you are doing on yourself, and/or could there be some actual "abuse" of some kind being symbolized,(not necessarily sexual), as amelia suggested?

Hi Twirl,
Thank you first of all for taking time and thinking for me in various angles. Working on my own thoughts is very true, especially in the past few months. When I really turn back and see, I really understand that I'm not living life to the fullest. I have certain kinds of beliefs myself and 'strongly' feel they are right, but in comparison to what I'm living, it is kind of totally opposite - the people that I interact with regularly, the kind of people that I've voluntarily or involuntarily attracted,etc. Not subconsciously, but consciously I'm craving to get rid of all the nonsense and live a life that I believe in, completely without any hitch or compromise. I would not want to ellaborate on every aspect as each one will be a separate long story in itself and hey Twirl I know that you know a some of the things yourself, what I'm referring to .

Though, I'm not sure if there is some hidden aspects as well that is waiting to surface or that has surfaced and has not been recognized by me yet. There has been so many beliefs that was posed on me right from my childhood, that I'm rebelling. I don't want to be in this rebelling state for long and need a pathway for the life I like the most. Though we change our thoughts, in spite of unchangeable people around, the mind just stays calm until it is disturbed. There are constantly these external factors which keep testing your patience May be, unable to have an outlet has been reflected in my dream, I don't know.

And with regards to the people in my dream, both the young girl and the man who was trying to wake her up are total strangers and I'm viewing them from a short distance. There were events before and after this scene which I cant remember. But both the scenes appeared on the same day, though not continuously. Would you say Scenes 1 & 2 are connected in some way?

Hi Ra,
Thanks for the alert . I'm trying to see which of their suggestions/thoughts would apply in my case. Please let me know if you have any other thoughts though.

Washing with holy water suggests "washing away sin" or purifying negative, unwanted energies. It seems that, on some level, this is something you want or need to do, but have not completed or are having difficulty with (water stopped/not fully cleansed). Can you think of what this may be referring to?

If we include scene1 in the calculation, is it possible that you are attempting to cleanse/purify/release some experience from your childhood (when you were 7 or 8)?

What do you think? How do you feel about that?

Hi Ra,
With connection with dream 2, I somewhat feel this is related to my career, as I saw someone related to my career. If these dreams are to be put together, I would say it is related to some part of my creativity, that was waiting to be revealed or born and with the washing, I would say I an relate to washing away some of my blocks I was carrying in relation to it, for long. I always felt that some of my pluses doesn't come out wholly because of those blocks that I carry. And I agree with you that I haven't wholly finished cleansing and I need to release/purify some more of my blocks.

Thank you so much for your thoughts Ra .
I also thank amelia and Twirl for the detailed analysis and made me think and sort out.
