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 I was riding my bike up Charles page boulevard. a road that
leads to my house. It passes an industrial zone, a prison facility, and a park.
In the dream it had a lot of stop lights and heavy traffic, while it is not
very busy in real life. It looked more like riverside drive, another road near
my house that runs along the Arkansas river, but no river in the dream. Just
the sewage ditch.
The road is very long in my dream, and the speed limit is 50 or 60 mph (40 in
real life). I had a speedometer on my bike and was tearing up the road at 50-60
mph, trying to keep my speed up. There were guys on bikes following me, and
I felt I was kind of leading them. I wanted to be a good cyclist, make a good
impression, etc. there were also cars and stop lights. After having to stop
at one stop light I felt annoyed with them. So at the next one I rode my bike
up on the sidewalk and kept going over the grass and park area, and sidewalk
when I could find it. I thought the people behind me would be impressed.
I rode up to a dark concrete patch where some kids were playing basketball.
The entire place was overshadowed by this big ugly tree with empty branches
like a canopy a few feet overhead. In the rest of the dream there was green
grass and green leafy trees, it Isnt really fall here yet, so this tree looked
quite dead in contrast to everything else.
Well, the kids were trying to play with their basketballs, but every time one
bounced too high or was tossed in the air it would be caught in the branches
of the trees and it was a nuisance getting them back.
I went up to the tree. There was this creepy old guy with a scraggly beard and
tattered clothes there. He held open some sheets that were like a curtain in
the doorway of the tree trunk (a very thick tree trunk, like 20 feet wide).
I stepped inside the tree. It was completely hollow and had been made into a
room. There were wooden slats on the walls, but I could see light creeping through
them and through the bark of the tree from the outside. This terrified me, and
I guess I felt bad for the tree. I said something about a huge fix-up job. But
then I was also terrified of the tree. It was completely dark inside, except
for the light from the little slats and holes. I left the tree through another
doorway in its side and rode my bike home. All the way I was terrified. I thought
the tree would chase me or I would find myself back inside that darkness. But
then I was home (or what was supposed to be home), and my house was all beautiful
inside and I started feeling safe and woke up.
THE REALITY The dreamer had been thinking a lot about work. She enjoyed the
pace of it as it helps her burn up energy which may be directed in some other
more negative fashion. But there are some aspects of her work that she dislikes
such as her boss who tends to scare her.
DREAM INTERPRETATION Bikes are often symbols of a very personal course. So its
worthwhile asking the dreamer where in life they feel they maybe rather isolated
and have to forge their own course. At work the dreamer feels as if she has
little in common with the people she works with. They all tend to have huge
inferiority complexs whilst she seems to be exactly the opposite. The job was
her idea and not the idea of her parents who felt she was capable of something
much better.
The obsession with speed also rings true with the dreamer. She is always busy
at work and always finding things to do. The dreamer also mentioned a coworker
who she had to look after. This girl was very good at standing around doing
nothing. The dreamer felt that there was not much point telling her there were
many things she could be doing as she did not pay attention to things that she
had been told before that. But the whole obsession with speed really sums up
the dreamer. She feels that keeping yourself busy is a good thing. So thats
maybe why she feels that the speed limit should be increased.
If the dream is about work then the tree would definitely link to her boss.
She describes him as a huge fix-up job. Her emotions towards the tree match
those she has for her manager. She feels sorry for him but is also terrified.
Dreams often help us put things in perspective. This dream maybe shows that
the dreamer feels work helps her to burn off energy and provides her routine.
She is very work conscious but at the same time their is precious little about
work that she likes other than that. She does not connect with any of the other
staff and finds the boss difficult.
In the dream she is riding home. That could either mean that she is glad to
get home after work or that she is attempting to become more at home with work.
She is trying to find a pace of work that suits her and relationships with coworkers
that allow her to fit in more.
