This dream dictionary uses a bank of hundreds of real dreams to show how dream symbols translate into real life thoughts and feelings.
THE DREAM It started out with me, my mom and nan-nan at the beach.
I left them there and my daughter and I were sock skating through a store.
Then she turned into my friend Laura when she was a little girl. (shes 25
now, but I used to baby sit her when I was 16 and 17 and she was 6 and 7)
and she wanted me to carry her and I told her "the thing about kids is, they
get heavy." but I sort of tucked her under my arm and started skating really
fast. Then she disappeared and I was outside. I was on top of a big mountain
and I had real skates on and I was racing downhill. I was racing my friends
Cate, Allie and Karen. Cate was winning. She was far ahead of us and we noticed
that the road was "bottoming out" and flooding. Cate was getting closer to
it and we yelled at her to come back. She heard us and started back uphill.
The water kept rising and rising. Allie said "is it the sea? it must be the
sea." We looked around and the ocean was just rising higher and higher. Not
like the tsunami crashing. The water level just kept rising. It was gaining
on Cate and just before she reached us, the water got her. We asked her if
she can swim and she said no. I grabbed her hand and pulled her toward us.
Then we all held hands and the water got us all. We were swimming uphill toward
higher ground of course. How we stayed afloat with roller skates on while
we were all holding hands, I have no clue. Then I remembered that I had left
my mom and nan-nan down on the beach and that they must have surely drowned
by now. I let my head go underwater. I wanted to die. Allie squeezed my hand.
I pulled my head up and said "my nan-nan" and they all understood. Then I
was on the beach again. I was looking for my mom and nan-nan. I found my nan-nan
lying face down in the sand. She was wearing her dark red house coat and she
wasnt breathing. I turned her over and told her to breathe and she started
to breath. I was so relieved and I held her in my arms but started looking
around for my mom. And I saw another nan-nan. She was wearing an old house
dress and she wasnt breathing.
THE REALITY The day of the dream there was a severe thunderstorm where the
dreamers nan-nan lives. By the time the dreamer had got in touch with her
the storm had passed. Her nan-nan knew nothing about the storm. She said her
dog was acting a bit strange and wanted to sit next to her. But as the nan-nan
is half deaf both this death omen of her granddaughter and the storm passed
totally unnoticed.
THE INTERPRETATION Often premonitions will come true on the very day of the
dream. In this case the dream captured not the event but the dreamers overreaction
to a storm. She was frantically worried. In symbolic form the dream captured
this perfectly.
Firstly the dream featured the issue of baby-sitting. That perfectly matched
real life as the dreamer was frantically trying to look after the best interest
of her elderly Gran. It was extremely accurate as well as the baby-sitting
also dealt with someone who was older. The girl the dreamer used to baby-sit
was now beyond being tucked under her arms.
Waves in dreams and violent moving water symbolize feelings and thoughts which
are out of control and liable to change. In this case this perfectly matched
the symbols. The dreamers feelings changed very abruptly. She was worrying
for no good reason. It was an event which the dreamers nan-nan did not even
notice!
Most important the dream dealt with the worries about her nan-nan and that
matched real life.
Symbolic Meanings
BABY-SIT : "protecting someone from trouble - the dreamer wants to protect
her Nan who cannot cope with the storm"
CAR : "your direction in day to day life"
DROWN : "overwhelmed by issue - unable to manage"
LITTLE GIRL : "not in control of the situation - her gran is unable to cope
with the situation"
TSUNAMI : "exaggerations in your mind - quickly changing opinions - getting
carried away with thoughts"
TSUNAMI : "the dreamer fears her Nan will be swept away by the storm"
DREAM MEANING The dream captures the following feeling within the dreamer
- "I think that this dream was a premonition of the day of the dream.
I was scared for my grans safety as the weather was very bad where she lives.
I did not think she would cope. But actually she was safely tucked up and
did not even hear the storms because she is deaf."
