Going by Jeep up stairs to a floating rock

**d00d** · 11-20-2017 04:41 PM

There were people going upstairs on some public place and if I'm not mistaken I was in a Jeep whereupon someone noted that I can't go up the stairs with it, however I replied "You just watch and see, this is a Jeep!". There was a policeman there, who surprisingly was someone I know from a congregation, who has a very attractive wife, and I had to drive by him so he wouldn't see me driving up the stairs.

As I get to the top, there is a large floating rock in the sky not so far away. I ponder for myself that perhaps this is an ancient spacecraft, that has it's anti-gravity thing still going. Somebody points out that it's something else, but I don't really remember what. I observe it closer, but it's hard to explain what I really saw, but it was mostly some sort of rock formation that had some kind of form, which could be interpreted maybe as a spacecraft, or perhaps a fossilized creature, or just rock.

For some reason, someone, or perhaps it was me, introduces the idea to fly a hot air ballon between the floating rock and the nearby mountain, or whatever it was, another rock formation. They said it can be done, but it's really hard, and there is risk for the ballon touching the rock and tearing.

Does this have any meaningful meaning?

Moving upward or downward is usually a good sign in a dream. These are movements to the upper and lower parts of the psyche. Going up the stairs is reminiscent of Jacob’s ladder. If the stairway is spiral, this is probably meaningful.

As for the jeep, sometimes our dreams will have mythological overtones. Thus, the jeep’s color as well as any unusual or distinguishing things about the jeep may be important. The jeep might symbolize some sort of animal, such as a horse or a panther.

The policeman and his wife may symbolize the royal couple, the divine union or the holy marriage. However, I have also seen dreams where a policeman acts as like a liaison for the psyche. He keeps things under control and reports what he sees.

The type of stone of the large floating rock could be important – for example, granite vs. limestone. The stone can be a symbol of the Self. In “Man and His Symbols,” a stone can symbolize “the dreamer's innermost being, his true personality.” Stones can act “as containers of divine powers ….” https://monoskop.org/images/9/97/Von...mbols_1988.pdf . For more quotes by Jung about stones, see Carl Jung talks about stones: Ten Quotations | Jung Currents .

Air and wind often symbolize the spirit. Thus, the dreamer’s journey by a hot air balloon is a spiritual journey. The nearby mountain (?) probably represents the physical world.

Hope this helps.

Jeep is the only car I know of that can actually climb rock. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dD6uLPy0iBM
The Jeep in my dream was of a similar model but red I think. I've had car dreams before. In one of them I was at the place where I grew up, and someone had stolen my black Corvette (in the dream, I don't own one). So I was looking for the one who stole it.

He was only a cop in the dream not in real life. Like I said he has an attractive wife maybe my attempt to sneak by him was an attempt to get to his wife. But I don't see a way of actually doing this, or why it would be wise. Maybe in that case I am trying to avoid the "holy union" altogether. That's not untrue, but it seems the dream is saying it is possible, at least with a Jeep

I don't remember it that well anymore but I think it was a red kind of stone, perhaps resembling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vishnu_Basement_Rocks. I remember there being a fossil component to the entire rock, so maybe that is yet another reference to this kind of rock, in that case.

So I am challenged by the dream to take this journey? What would that be in that case?
