Dreams - A request for insight maybe

spunk · Veteran Member

Hi Seqelov,

I don't know if I have any insights, that is a big maybe. But I think that your dream is not particularly symbolic.

You say that the dream was being in great pain, and that probably translates directly into how you are feeling. You also say that the dream contained a plan for dealing with the pain. Do you remember the plan?

Seems like a direct message from the subconcious: You are in great pain, and you need a plan (or the specific plan in the dream?) to deal with it. The fact that you are not noticing the pain, or are perhaps stuffing it, is all the more reason for your subconcious to send you the message.

What do you think of this interpretaion?

Hi Segelov

I personally am in two minds relating to dreams and whether they always are your subconcious thoughts speaking to you. I feel they can relate to specific life events but, also that your subconcious does need to download day-to-day events and put them in order, sometimes with peculiar "visions." I have looked at the science behind sleep and dreaming. I would recommend a good book-Counting Sheep by Paul Martin (ISBN 0-00-655172-6). If you are looking for a good web dream interpreteur then try www.FreakyDreams.com. Be careful though! No dream can give you the answer to life's probs. They can only point to your thought events at that moment in time. It is not an exact science.

Hope this helps but above all...take it easy on interpreting a quite complicated process thats going on in our subconcious thinking.

You take care

Hello Lisa and Rob

Just wrote a reply, and were did it go! the computer gremlins are out to get me! Thanks both of you.

First Lisa, yes the plans to deal with the pain was all about various types of pain killers, most of which I would not even consider taking, being rather anti drugs, even prescribed ones, had too many bad experiences over the years around all sorts of drugs.

Rob, dreams in no way are the only tool for answering all of lifes conundrums, judging by my dreams that would be the route to the mad house however they are very helpful in solving mathematical problems, finding things that I have lost, reminding me of forgotten events and opening a crack into my subconscious. I keep a dream diary and have done on and off for years, and so many dreams are so obvious that interpretations are not required; but the pain thing I have never experienced before but is probably addressed in the book that is not most easily to hand in this house, as it is probably still in a box in the loft, too many books and not enough shelf space in this house, but then there are not enough walls to put the shelves onto. It was a most freaky dream, I was so totally convinced that it was reality, yet I know it was not. That sort of dream really does give me the "shiver down the spine" sensation.

Any way thanks both of you

Take care
