Dream interpretation: There's danger everywhere
Posted by Dream Momma on Mon, Jun 29, 2009 at 12:01 PM
"Hi Dream Momma, This is my dream...it was night and I was crossing the street away from where I live to the other side. As I was crossing a man started yelling that I was about to be hit by a car. I looked and could see cars in the distance but didn't feel they were close to me. But this man kept yelling that I was just about to be hit so I ran across the street. I was walking to a building across from where I live ( he seemed to be near where I live though I never saw him) and he started yelling that someone was chasing me so I started walking faster. He kept yelling "he's getting closer." So I was frantically trying to get my keys into the door I was going into. I finally did and the door turned into a swinging door that didn't need a key. I decided to try and get to my building and avoid this man by going around the back. I was walking down the street and kept seeing people I knew but their backs were to me. Then I startled a cat that ran out from under a bush. Then I woke up."
The key to this dream is in the first sentence. As the clever image portrays, danger is everywhere. That belief is what appears in your unconscious (probably from an overprotective father) when you "cross the street" and "go away from where" you live. According to the dream there is no safe place other than home, it's not even safe to cross the street. In this case home is also metaphoric, i.e. the house in your head, i.e. believing what your parents did. I also think that the man chasing you is a metaphor for fear. Unconscious fear haunts you making it impossible to be truly free to make your own decisions and take your own risks.
Another powerful image is the swinging door. A door that moves freely, that is unlocked. A door you can come and go through easily. I suggest that that is where you are now; on the brink of freedom but as we all know old fears did hard.
I'd like to see you adopt the cat that pops out from hiding. That is YOU girlfriend (I'm sure you are female) and it's time you let all your natural curiousity about the world take you to some amazing places. After all, you've got eight more lives to play with!
