Dreams

Here lately I have been having the weirdest dreams and the funny thing about it is I can remember them when I wake up. Every aspect of the dream seems to be embedded into my memory. I have started to investigate what it is that my dreams are trying to tell me and was amazed when I started getting into the meaning of my dreams.

On Wednesday night I dreamed that I was in my Mom's neighborhood but at the end of her street was a drop off, a cliff,  is what I kept saying in my dream. It was me and my husband and my brother, Sam and for some reason they wanted me to get something out the alley and I was going to have to go along the cliff's edge to get it. It was really cold outside and it was ice all over the ground especially around the edge of the cliff and like a fool I went around the corner in my snow boots and was hanging on to dear life as I was sliding to the edge of the cliff. Needless to say I fell off the edge into a lake below. I was fine but my back hurt from hitting the water so hard. I checked the meaning of a cliff and this is what I found:

To dream that you or someone falls off a cliff, suggests that you are going through a difficult time and are afraid of what is ahead for you. You fear that you may not be up for the challenge or that you cannot meet the expectations of others.


Then on last night I dreamed that my other brother and I, Keith. were in this strange Alice in Wonderland type land and we were walking around this really plush looking type grass and I could see the head of a really big snake and noticed that Keith was walking on the back of the snake. I guess he had finally broke the skin on the back of the snake because he had on spiked sneakers you could see the meat of the snakes back start to expose. I alerted Keith to what he was doing and by that time the snake started to emerge from its plain sight hiding place and started chasing me. He was so angry and it was either a anaconda or a really big boa constrictor. So I looked up the meaning of snakes and anaconda's and this is what I found:

Anaconda
To see an anaconda in your dream, symbolizes your creativity and potential. This snakes also calls attention to your sexuality and your need to be more in tune with your own sexuality.


Boa Constrictors
To see a boa constrictor in your dream, suggests that you are feeling suffocated or restricted in some personal relationship. Alternatively, it represents repressed sexual urges or hidden enjoyment of sex

Snake
To see a snake or be bitten by one in your dream, signifies hidden fears and worries that are threatening you. Your dream may be alerting you to something in your waking life that you are not aware of or that has not yet surfaced. Alternatively, the snake may be seen as phallic and thus symbolize temptation, dangerous and forbidden sexuality.


These interpretations were a spot on,especially the one about the cliff. I am still struggling with the one about the snake and then I wondered if the characters in my dreams made a difference. I guess all it is really saying is that I have a lot of crap on my mind.

Sweet dreams...
