Hi folks. Well let me wish all LLs a very Happy and Prosperous New Year. Talking of my dream.....I was in a stilt area of our residential building and was trying to walk out. As I did this I saw an elephant as I went round one of the pillars so I turned around and tried to go out from other side. But there too there was an elephant. Then I started hurrying up and tried to go out from another side. There too there was an elephant. My this time I got worked up and walked hurriedly or almost ran a little outside from other direction and finally went out in the open i.e. the compound of our colony. It was the garden side. In short, I found elephants round the corners as I was trying to go out and got little apprehensive and so didn't try to go near them but tried to go out in the open. What could this mean? Any ideas?

Edit: In our culture elepants are connected with Lord Ganesha who is called the destroyer of obstacles.

I will have a closer look at your dream tomorrow and thank you for the clarification of the symbol of the elephant.

I am back. Gemini, so you second it. Btw it is a beautifully designed Ganesha. Actually abundance is around indeed. Outside only monetarily but from within it is unconditional...what do I say? I don't know. Actually I can't find words to describe it. Joy? Is it pure love? I don't know. I hope the state continuous. luny moony? (Laughs) But its nothing instable either. I feel good. Just like that. And things outside too are not troublesome. In fact the other day someone talked utter nonsense to me. Yet I hardly got disturbed compared to what he said. I feel the world is OK. My heart has become very sensitive. If anything 'sad' happens anywhere around that I get to hear I feel sad even if I am not connected to it directly as though that person or incident I was directly involved with. Not much of a social circuit. Yet I feel complete....without any reason. Actually in the dream there were elephants around. But I went away from them. Does that mean that I ran away from all this? Money, prosperity, abundance? I tend to do that actually. Any thoughts on that? I have LOTs of opportunities in career, personal life, social life which I don't take for some reason or the other and try to stay away. Like I ran away from the elephants out in the open.

Just a couple of days back my friend sent me a picture of an elephant which was considered to be a symbol of a deity called Akilandeshwari (Form of Shakti) of Lord Shiva temple where it was bought. www.newscrunch.in Also I got a very attractive picture of Baby Ganesha. Sooo Shweet......

Thank you for your lovely wishes mirage. May you have all this too. See I am in abundance so I can distribute it as I like. Thank you gemini and mirage for the efforts you have taken in interpreting this dream. Namaste.

Some baby ganesha pics that I like...

Thanks for the pictures!!!
I liked the elephant sitting there like a human!
I had noticed the bracelets around his feet... and read in the description that women in India are given the same bracelets to wear.
They 'control' elephants in circus's as a baby by chaining their feet like that. When they are 'older' and STILL wear the feeling of a rope around their ankles, they believe the illusion that they are still 'stuck'.... And Elephant has TREMENDOUS Power and Force where it could instantly break itself FREE, but is 'bound' by the Memory, the kinesthetic cell muscle memory system, that keeps it unconsciously controlled.

(I'm assuming/guessing you are female?)

....

You know.... Elephants are also known for their Long Term memories. They Remember.

May your Soul Remember its Sacred origins, and be able to Bridge that Memory FULLY into your conscious AND Conscious awareness. May those boundaries between the two dissolve for you... So you'll be in Heaven upon this earth... Walking as ONE with BOTH Worlds. No problems functioning as Both.

Be further Transformed this year.

Of course too-- you know that I like to bring in the 'practical' into interpretations, as well as the sublime.

(Although, what that evokes was quite Beautiful for us to steep in. I appreciate it sooo much!)

Since you already told us about your friends taking you to the temple...

A part of you may be 'digesting' their efforts at or to 'push' you back into something you have related to before (religiously), even though, and AND, you would be interested in exploring once again?

asteroid 9172 Abhramu ...
currently traveling retrograde in zodiac Leo at 5.19rx
http://markandrewholmes.com/abhramu.html

Quoting ...
It was named for a figure from Hindu mythology, Abhramu, the "cloud-knitter", the original female elephant.
She was a supernatural winged being who could change her shape at will, like the clouds that resemble her children.
Abhramu's tribe eventually lost both its wings and its magic.

....

I love the image of the Garden... Place where you plant seeds and cultivate.

What kind of seeds are you planting now?
What had you cultivated before that is back in your life now?
Would this enrichen the Prosperity and Abundance to your Soul, or be a huge hindrance blocking you?

Is there 'some elephant' you have ignored, like your own feelings that you are overriding some part of you that you didn't necessarily want disturbed right now?

What would happen if you took it inside you (your house) and processed how that felt to revisit such a thing? Good and not-so....

Just rhetorical questions......

Wishing you soooo much Love, and Great Light.

I love synchronicities!

There is also an asteroid 2415 Ganesa (Ganesha).

I've been praying and working on breakthroughs to remove unconscious obstacles that have been blocking MY own ability to 'receive' abundance.

I have Ganesa Scorpio 27+ H12 trine my Jupiter Cancer 27+ in H8.

Transiting Ganesa at 11+ Aquarius is presently 'stampeding' LOL through my H2 (income, possessions, self-esteem, talents), directly across the sky from my natal Abhramu Leo, and coming to asteroids having to do with casting off restrictions and things that bind you.

One of the transiting black moon liliths is with my Ganesa Scorpio.... helping to examine unconscious fears(Lilith) that are as illusory as the grown Elephant wearing Bracelets?


Healing with Asteroid energies???

You know, we dream not only for ourselves, but for the Whole Collective.

There are tribes around the world who put such values to dreams and healing the psyche of their whole community based on the dream of one of its members...

I Love the Mystical and Supernatural available for us in Astral Realms!

I love the symbolisms. Synchronicity abounds.

Abundance is found everywhere. I always like it when it is found within. As it happened in a garden it is growing as well and you are surrounded by it.

I liked the sitting elephant. The elephant is cute .

Hi Randal!!


@ mirage Saw your links and found them interesting. I heard of this Abhramu story for the first time. Thx for sharing. Does Abhramu indicate abundance too? Anyway I hope it does since its going through your 2nd house. Make the most of it and don't act like I do. Enjoy!!! And thanks for the love and light mirage and I can do with so much of it. I reciprocate the same heartily to you and to other LLs here.

Good stuff.

My first thoughts about this dream were about Ganesh, so it seems we all are thinking the same. This is definitely about an obstacle/s you are trying to avoid.

It seems that the way past the elephants is through the "garden side". What kind of garden is this? The kind of garden could give a clue as to what you need to do to avoid your obstacle. Can you describe the garden?

Hi Ra!! Nice to see you around. Actually the colony has open space outside the stilt area with garden on one side. Its a lawn surrounded by trees. All I saw was the lawn part and later I realised (After we i.e. Gemini and mirage discussed here) that I missed mentioning something here. In the dream I saw myself running out into the open. Did you notice that I saw my own self running out. Like I was witnessing myself. So who am I?

Also, I ever since then I am seeing Ganesha out of nowhere and realise it only after sometime. Like I went to my friends home and her kid showed me a balloon on which his uncle had made a sketch. Guess whose? Ganesha. With eyes trunk and tooth. Another day someone gave me a log book and guess what kept popping out of it as I worked on it? A pen sketch of Ganesha. I kept pushing it in its place only to realise later that it was again Ganesha. So thats how synchronicity is working and trying to tell me something. Either my obstacles will go or I am wanting to run away from prosperity which I view as obstacle to being free and wanting greenery around. Greenery meaning here home, nurturing, love, sharing, giving, being cared for, connected with nature and oneself? Just my thoughts.

Love & Light ... Thank you for your greeting.

When you get those surprise pop-up cues...

Quickly notice-- What were you just feeling or thinking about just then (in the background of your mind) when Ganesha's image appeared? What was your mood?

How did you feel a little while AFTER you saw this? Did any kind of shift happen inside?

Pause a moment. Send a feeling of gratitude to God's Spirit. That {God} is interest in your life and working to clear your life-landscape from overriding obstacles, fears, any worries, sorrows, walls of regrets, heartaches, heartbreaks... self doubts.

Clear your Deepest pains. Your fears that seem insurmountable....

There's a saying used in the US, to help a person who is overwhelmed at the enormity of a task, or circumstance they face in their life---

"How do you eat a WHOLE elephant? ....
One bite at a time." LOL

AND/OR/ALSO!!! .... Send Gratefulness FOR having ALL the Abundance in your Life. CELEBRATE and dance and thank Spirit FOR all the Blessings you already have, and Continue to be Overwhelmingly (in a good way) BLESSED with!!! Yes.... Everything Good.

Suggestions.... If you want to some time.

Create a piece of personal artwork using the elephant....

Even mould one out of gray, brown, (or elephant-colored) clay, working this with your hands.
Could decorate it with whatever you'd like...
Cloth, beads, jewels, plants/flowers (real or made).

How do you feel while you're doing this?

Allow your head to be quiet, and just 'hold space' while your hands do your project (whatever you chose to do).

Draw it....
Paper mache
Clay

Even your Garden dirt....
Take some of the soil, and let the elephant stand on it.

Recreate the dream theatre in front of your eyes, in real world. Then 'behold' it.

Later take notes on how you felt, the things you'd want to say about the scene.

Create a fictitious story about your elephant, house, garden... elements of the dream.

Blessings.. (Namaste)


Found some additional side-type information to try to widen the field of meanings for you.

This description is for someone born under Chinese zodiac vibration for spirit of "Elephant"..? http://www.primalastrology.com/elephant.html


FOR FUN.... Here's a link for everyone to find their own animal spirit. http://www.primalastrology.com/animal-spirit-chart.html

Mine is the Centipede! (jawdrop-wow, did that fit!)

Have Fun, and Be Stampeded with Blessings Everyone!

Found this....

from Astrology Answers http://astrologyanswers.com/dream-interpretation/dream-dictionary/elephant/

Quoting

Elephant

An elephant both in the spirit world and in many cultures is considered a revered animal.

Seeing an elephant in your dream is a very powerful symbol of hope, wisdom, and relationships.

You may also be seeing an elephant as a sign of fertility.

The culture you come from can determine the significance of the elephant in your dream, because so many different cultures believe fundamentally different things about elephants.

Another common meaning to an elephant appearing in your dream is to jog your memory about something.

Elephants have long been associated with good memory recall, and an elephant appearing in your dream could be pointing your attention to an important detail in your life that you need, but have forgotten.

Pay attention to the symbols around the animal in your dream and this will assist in helping you interpret the meaning of their position.

The links were interesting mirage. Thank you. And yes I will try to be alert of my thoughts regarding the synchronicities though I wonder how I am going to do that. Mostly it strikes me only later. But I will try nevertheless.
