Thread: bike stolen

[QUOTE=sweetbeefaerie;2007485]I dreamt that my fiance borrowed my bike(which I've had since I was ten years old)and rode it to a store that was in the ghetto. He ended up leaving the bike there somehow(unchained and everything) and when I found out it was there I freaked out and went looking for it. I looked everywhere around the store front and back and couldn't find it. It had been stolen. I was very angry and sad because I really love that bike. I was angry at my fiance for being so careless with something of mine. Especially something that I'd had for so long.

Vehicles in dreams represent how we are "moving" thru life. Vehicles house the soul. They can also represent different aspects of our physical body or traits...for example if in a dream you are riding a motorcycle fast it would suggest in real life you're being reckless. If you're driving a truck, because trucks "haul things" you could be holding on to old baggage. That being said.....a Bicycle is a vehicle that you must move through your own willpower. It takes effort and will and self determination to move it. Here in the dream the finance "took your bike" and left it "in the ghetto". So the word of caution with this part of the dream is that you might want to keep a head's up on not letting the relationship or him ever get in the way of you maintaining your willpower, your determination and your "Independence" to go and do things on your own.....meaning although you are a part of a couple, you maintain your own independent parts of self....otherwise parts of yourself could "get trashed /in the ghetto".

You've "had it so long".....meaning your own way of doing things and independence. The dream is just to make you remember that is an important part of your life. The fact that you were afraid bike was to get stolen in real life is just a physical symbol that matches with the dream. Dreams try to give us messages and if ignored the symbol can happen in real life.

wow that actually makes a lot of sense. It has been a struggle for both of us to keep our independence at times and remember that it's okay to be our own person, and that being our own person doesn't mean that we're not one still.

Another thought: aside from getting used to traits such as carelessness or other things that may tick you off but you cannot change about him, you also have to get used to the fact that some things that used to be just yours alone will now be shared, you will have shared possessions and your mind is adjusting to thinking about things as ours rather than mine. You may find that things that have personal history for you may get carelessly treated because until he learns about how much they mean to you, he won't know, so your precious tablecloth might get stained, or your mug that you got from your grandmother might get chipped.

My mother had a doll that was her favorite doll from when she was a kid, and she had it on display, and when I wasa little girl I am told I wanted to play with it, but my mother would not let me because this was her special doll, and i was a small kid and would likely be careless with it. So my father went out and bought me an even prettier even bigger doll. When my mother saw how much I loved the new doll, she felt guilty and she gave me her doll to play with as well.

Marriage and or kids will change one's life in many ways, and possessions are one of them. My iPad is barely mine, it belongs to my kids more than to me though I will not admit it to them. I do not have a favorite childhood bike, but if I did, I doubt it would remain mine. Not that I do not have anything that is just mine (my toothbrush is mine for example but fewer things are, and this dream may be in part due to you realizing this and being concerned over it.

hahaha, also very true. I am a very independent type, being a Capricorn My fiance is a Pisces, and you may not be obsessed with astrology like I am or even believe in it at all, but my god-a pisces can royally flip a capricorn's sense of independence sideways! but for the better. I'm not sure I was there for that day in kindergarten when they taught sharing. I've never had a sibling close enough in age that I had to practice sharing either. So moving in with my Pisces was like a crash course. I'm thankful for both you guy's insight here-I like how you both saw almost opposite meanings that were both completely true of me. I'm having fun diving more into my dreams lately-it's like free therapy!
