THE DREAM The following are short summaries of dream which all contain 'surrounding'. I have tried best to isolate the symbolic meaning of 'surrounding' in each dream.

A dream where a black shadow surrounded by a snake shedding its skin was thought to be a premonition of a man's death the next day. The shadow 'surrounding' the snake symbolised a major dark event.

A dream where tornadoes are surrounding the dreamers home linked to her going through a lot of changes and leaving home for the first time. The tornadoes 'surrounding' the house symbolised her feelings of insecurity and uncertainty about the future.

A dream where the dreamer is surrounded by black misty things linked to a possibletelepathy dream. The young child had tapped into her mothers scary feelings whilst reading a horror book.

A dream where coyotes are surrounding her dog linked to the dreamer feeling annoyed by a woman on the internet the night before. This woman was blaming an innocent child and using terrible language . The dreamer was thinking about the long term effects of this on the child. Being surrounded symbolised the effect that constant uncaring attitudes would have on the child as it grew.

Being surrounded by thorny plants linked to the dreamer getting annoyed by his father making a serious error causing him a lot of inconvience.

The thorny plants which 'surrounded' the dreamer represented the dreamer not being able to think of anything else - his mind was concentrated on the mistake his father had made.
