Dream:
After my father and mother died a couple of years ago I had two dreams:
Dream 1
Dreamt that I was in a log cabin in the middle of the snow. I looked out the window and saw my father chopping up bodies with an axe on a block of wood in the snow - he looked like a lumberjack (not my dad at all). My mother (who wasn't my mother) said to me "Your father is an serial killer" I've been trying to tell you for years. I was horrified. I woke up in total fear, unable to even get out of bed. This dream stayed with me for weeks.
Interpretation: Interpretation:
This is a wonderful dream as your parents concepts and beliefs stay with us regardless of the fact that they are still on the planet or not. Yes they are frequently unconscious habits that like serial killers, pop out to trip or terrorise you - only under certain circumstances. Here you have a clue because it is your father that is the 'Serial Killer' who chops up bodies with his axe. This is wonderful, With whom did your Dad have axes to grind? Who set him off so to speak? How did his Judgmental attitude influence you and your family in general? Once you can answer these questions you can pull out the remnants of this limiting pattern and move on with more personal clarity about your real world view. Seeing life as you see it without the parental colouring.
Dream 2
I was walking down the street I lived in when I was in high school. As I walked past a house three dogs bailed me up. I knew one wasn't as bad as the other two. I continued on down the street and then realised my mother was with me. As we started to walk up the next hill my mother said to me. "Just one step after the other." I remember trying to slow down for her (my mother was in a wheel chair before her death) although she was walking with me.
This dream starts with you walking down the street where you lived. Taking you back to that specific time frame At High School, we are still walking through life with the occasional public transport experience. The dream has to do with where you believed you were going and who you thought you might want to be at that age. The dream also pinpoints some perhaps overlooked or abstract connections with your mother. Something that may have been broken at the time you were in high school.
3 dogs - represent 3 masculine symbols. Probably 3 men that either 'bailed you up' - or threatened you in any way, when you were the age you were in the dream. They may have been relatives or friends, just remember that one of the trio was not as bad as the others. That is a pretty good clue. You continue and realise your mother is with you, for this part of your life she was there and influencing you or not as you chose which bits seemed relevant at the time. Now you might see her advise differently.
She says. "Just one step after the other." You try to slow down to her pace. Perhaps it was the only way you could communicate could have been due to her illness. Yet everything that ever was created from Einstein type physics to cooking a fruit cake uses her wise formula. "Just one step after the other." There is nothing in life to which this does not apply. Hope this helps, sweet dreams in the future.
