    New Dream Adventures of Raven Knight

    12/02/11: Shopping at Ross

    I am with Alicia at the mall, it looks like the bigger mall in our area. We are walking around and shopping in random stores. Alicia wants to go in and look at some clothes at Ross, so I follow her in and start browsing. I remember that they have some good prices on purses, so maybe I will get a new one. I show Alicia my old one and I tell her I'm going to look for a new one because the old one is getting pretty ratty. She says ok, and I head over to the area where they have their purses. I get to where their purses are supposed to be and my attention is drawn to one that looks nice. I take it down and look at it closer, but I decide it doesn't have enough pockets to sort all my crap. I put it back and look for more. I realize there are hardly any purses there on display. I wonder where the rest of them are. I look a bit more and I find only a couple other purses that aren't at all what I want. I finally ask a store employee where the purses are. He says they aren't going to carry purses any more. This makes me mad, how can they not carry them? I am feeling madder than I would normally be about such a thing. I start yelling at the employee. I ask where I'm supposed to find a purse at a reasonable price if they don't carry them? He says it's not his business. I am pissed at Ross and I start making a mess. Knocking over displays, throwing their merchandise on the floor… making a scene. Someone says something about turning a fire hose on me. I keep making a mess and someone squirts me with a garden hose that has almost no pressure to it. My feet get wet.

      Hi Raven Knight. Cool dream. The most interesting thing to me was this kind of contrast between expectation and events.

      It seems like you had an expectation of seeing a lot of purses, and then there were barely any. Then the worker expected to spray you with a fire hose, but it was only a garden hose. It's like the expectations were huge, but the events were smaller.

      What also struck me as interesting was that before you thought that you'd find tons of purses at Ross, you and your friend were randomly looking around at the mall. Your friend seemed to focus on Ross. Then your own focus became purses.

      Then when you got mad, it seemed like your focus became kind of random again. You were knocking down anything around you. The worker focused the situation again -- on a fire hose!, which is pretty awesome.

      So maybe the randomness means working with a lot of energy. The focus is an attempt to channel the energy. But the tons of energy leads to certain expectations which aren't met. I'm not sure why, sorry.

      I also think the store worker might be a dream-censor, which could be good or bad, I guess.

      Anyway, it seems like an incredibly meaningful dream to me. Have a good day.
