Dear Dreamer 13

REFLECTION OF AN ANGELDEAR SUZ: My nightmare started out like this. I was walking down the street. I was wearing a long white dress and sandals. It started to rain very hard so I walked into a place I thought was a church. I walked all the way into this building and I heard something that sounded like angels singing. I opened the door to the sanctuary. The pews were black onyx and the seats were blood red velvet with snakes sewn into the seats. The ceiling was so beautiful! It had angels all over it. As I walked down the aisle, I saw a cross on the wall. It had a snake wrapped around it. On the altar, there was a table with a knife on it. I looked into the blade of the knife and I didn't see my reflection. I saw the reflection of an angel or a demon or something. I felt scared.DEAR DREAMER: Your dream contains many religious and spiritual metaphors, The altar, the snake, the cross, the rain, the colors white and red, are all images of rich metaphoric hue. In the dream, you wear white, which is the symbol of purity and wisdom. You enter a sacred place where you journey into your mind's conceptual ideology. You endeavor to understand your surroundings. Ultimately your dream reveals your spiritual quest. Your dream is asking, "Why am I here?"Perhaps you are currently seeking to understand the deeper meaning in your existence. Are you asking yourself larger philosophical questions at this time? Seek out greater understanding of your spiritual values and beliefs. Your dream is leading you to the answers. Follow it. It is the first step on one of many journeys. I thank you for sharing this rich and soulful dream.Keep Dreaming! SUZDRIVING A BEAT UP PORSCHEDEAR SUZ: I recently broke up with a man that I had been talking to online for a year. He lives on the East Coast. I had wanted to go to see him since he offered to pay my way and all my expenses. He claims that he makes a lot of money and that buying airline tickets is nothing to him. Well, last week I called things off but wanted to remain friends.In my dream, he picked me up at the airport and we were driving in his beat up Porsche. His friend Erin was in the front seat with him and I was in the back. I knew she had her period because she had a box of pads next to her. She tired to scoot over to make room for me but I did not fit. Then we were at his parent's house and the kitchen was dirty. I was cleaning the counter tops. I wanted to kiss him. He is on the counter top and one of his friends is on the couch, watching us. Then I am in the bathroom; he had two tubs and two toilets. In addition, the bathroom was dirty. Well...that is my dream. I dreamed this the night after I called him to break off our romance.DEAR DREAMER: Dreams of dirt or filth typically represent the dreamer's hidden fears or distaste relating to a person or event. I think it is interesting that there are many images of disrepair. The Porsche, the kitchen, and the bathroom are all indicative of your dislike for this man.More importantly, since you mention you had issues with his claims of wealth, your dream could be symbolizing your desire to "clean" him out of your life. Perhaps your suspicions about his boastfulness have led you to re-evaluate why you were attracted to him in the first place. Do you feel you lowered yourself by having feelings for this man? Your dream is your voyage away from the mistrust and suspicion in this relationship.Keep Dreaming! SUZWhat have you been dreaming lately?
