      Can anyone spot a common theme in my dreams from last nigh

      Night of March 20th 2015. Bed from 22:00 to 06:00. Before going to sleep I asked my guardian angle/helping spirits/spirit guide and totem animals to review themselves to me in my dreams in a way I would recognize and understand.

      Did not record first 2-4 dreams.

      My mum had come up to the city to help me out with something. Towards the end of her visit she asked or I offered to accompany her while she drove out of the city or all the way to her home.
      On the way out of the city she often asked for directions. What I felt she was really doing was abdicating responsibility for taking such and such a road or exit.
      I then answered only once when asked by her which way she should go. This made her panic resulting in her driving down the wrong side of dual carriage way at night. I spotted this and told her she need to get off the road. She insisted she was going the right way until we were caught in the headlights of a large truck coming towards us. She curved and drove the wrong way up a slip road to get off the dual carriage way.
      Next we found ourselves in a service station on the outskirts of the city. We'd stopped for something to eat.
      While queuing up I noticed a person who had recently passed away standing in the queue. When I told my mum who I saw she said that was impossible as that person was dead. Then I thought is this what its like to see a ghost or spirit. e.g. 100% normal if you choose to believe other 'worlds' exist outside of the physical.
      I then returned to my old mood asking mam if she would be able to drive home from here by herself or if she would like me to accompany her. She didn't answer so I told her I was going home and left.
      Outside I just missed the first bus. Luckily another bus came quickly after this. Buses didn't stop unless people were at the bus stop waving them to do so. However buses did slow down at which point I called out to see if the bus was going to my town (where I no longer live but were I rent out my apartment). It was, stopped and I got on. The collector told me to go ahead when I offered to pay the fair because of my nationality.

      My thoughts/attempt at interpretation:
      I treat my mam like that in real life because a large part of me feels she does abdicate responsibility or rather I feel she did so in the past. Maybe its now time to acknowledge this and just accept her questions with the view that maybe if I adopt this approach she will come to see me as more relaxed and open.
      As for the dead person apart from wanting to see a ghost! While I acknowledge the person gave me employment when I was young I felt they were nothing more than a slave driver.

      03:00
      I found myself at the gym having not been there for sometime either due to injury or because I had been attending to other higher priority stuff. I sensed that maybe in my job I was a police man.
      Not sure where to start I lay on an inclined bench and picked up some loose weights that were there. I then put them behind at head level and straight up by straightening my arms. When I put them behind my head and tried to straighten my arms they rubbed off the wall. I thought they would fall off and then observed that there was nothing holding them onto the bar.
      While lying on the bench an ex female president also attended the gym and took a spot to my right. She was surrounded by a few companions.
      Next a gym attendant a middle aged woman who I felt knew my from before by the way she approached and asked “if I could help her”. I replied 'sure'. My 'sure' was how I would answer a friend or 'sure' in a genuine way, not in a 'sure, just let me put your request on my to do list and I'll get to it sometime'.
      I accompanied her to her room/office/work station. She asked me if I had travelers cheques. I said 'of course'.

      My thoughts/attempt at interpretation:
      I never like police and at my age I won't be joining! In saying that I can sense what it would be like to be a guardian of order / justice but served with compassion.
      As for the gym I don't use a gym but felt how good it feels to return to an old or totally new activity.
      Regarding the travelers cheques I need to travel but at the moment I don't have any money. Perhaps had I been mindful enough in the dream I could have told the woman I don't have any but that I would like some.

      In another dream I found myself on the road beside a fence behind which was a large factory or institution. All of a sudden a helicopter approached from behind and spotted a name on the tail. Brian Cox. Then the helicopter was blown violently backwards. It then proceeded to land safely. A group of children disembarked. They were on school project to move fish to a new location. They have a fish each. One fish I saw was a turbet.
      When I saw this I became irate because I automatically assumed they have not consulted with the national fishing body responsible for maintaining eco policing.

      My thoughts/attempt at interpretation:
      When ever I think of the name Brian Cox I think of someone who attained a top job but who always flew under the radar – excuse the pun.
      Regarding fishing, I like fishing and I do get angry when I think of how non native species are allowed to be introduced without any governance what so ever.

      In my final dream it was morning and I was at work/in collage in a very large institution in the Netherlands. An communication was sent out that every worker/student would receive €31 in their next pay packet due to a surplus. Surplus was the result of over charging or business having been good. I wondered why the institution had not decided to reduce next years registration fee by this amount but then I thought maybe increasing moral in the present moment was more important.

      My thoughts/attempt at interpretation:
      I worked in the Netherlands as a general operative when I left school.
      I need financial help at this time.

      Hi wintertime! I see a common theme in your dreams and that is, the exploring of your own thougts or past. We could probably also call it a kind of self realization. Your own dream interpretation was very helpful to get a sense of reference point for me to be able to grasp the theme of your dreams a bit better. I dont know if you ask for another dream interpretation. But I give it a go anyways just to clearify what I noticed about your dreams.

      My mum had come up to the city to help me out with something. Towards the end of her visit she asked or I offered to accompany her while she drove out of the city or all the way to her home.
      On the way out of the city she often asked for directions. What I felt she was really doing was abdicating responsibility for taking such and such a road or exit.
      I then answered only once when asked by her which way she should go. This made her panic resulting in her driving down the wrong side of dual carriage way at night. I spotted this and told her she need to get off the road. She insisted she was going the right way until we were caught in the headlights of a large truck coming towards us. She curved and drove the wrong way up a slip road to get off the dual carriage way.
      I see the main theme here as that you are start to see realize that you dont need your moms advice to lead you in the right direction in life any longer. And with that realization that you know that you need to make your own choices in life. I see that you also start to see that your mom is taking the wrong way now, if she tries to inflict with your way of life at this point. You live in two different citys, and she is the one who visit your city. So that is why she cant drive you in your right direction any longer because she doesnt know what is best for you any longer. And that is what you have start to realize about yourself. Your shown your own independence in the dream, by also letting your mom know that she also need to take her own decisions of her own life path, instead of intefering with yours. I belive that this realization of your own guidelines, is what causing the feeling of your mom as "abdicating responsibility for taking such and such a road or exit." Because you might know that she is taking the wrong road as long as she trying to guide you from the role of being a mother trying to guide you in what she thinks is the right direction. So you notice all this by seeing that you both would end up in the wrong direction if she would have the chance to take over the steering wheel for your way in your life situation/city.

      Next we found ourselves in a service station on the outskirts of the city. We'd stopped for something to eat.
      While queuing up I noticed a person who had recently passed away standing in the queue. When I told my mum who I saw she said that was impossible as that person was dead. Then I thought is this what its like to see a ghost or spirit. e.g. 100% normal if you choose to believe other 'worlds' exist outside of the physical.
      To be on the outskirt of the city could represent that you are exploring something outside of yourself by traveling away from your life situation (your city) to get a perspective outside of yourself to explore and expand your knowledge about your current state of mind. (Eating= growing/changing). Eating dinner with your mom could very likely be representing that you have a growing realization that your perspective of you and your relationship to your mom are changing or are getting expanded by being outside the already known part of yourself, which is represented as the city. And the ghost that you recognize as someone who have past away. Could very well be representing you, as you being aware of your old sense of self that you dont recognize as yourself any longer. But that you know belong to the past, just as someone who once was there. But that are now dead and became a ghost, as someone who is not here any more. Your might have noticed that your mom stil have the same image of you as her little boy that always will be her little boy. So it will be obvious that she in the dream doesnt see(really realize) That you are not that little boy or your old self any longer. So that is why she cant see the ghost of your past self as you do.
      I then returned to my old mood asking mam if she would be able to drive home from here by herself or if she would like me to accompany her. She didn't answer so I told her I was going home and left.
      This would be the final test in the dream, to going back to your old mood(the ghost of you) to validate what you now know about yourself. And since your mom is a representation of a part of yourself. She is now quiet instead of interfering with your life choices. which leaves you with making your own choice of your own, in how and in which direction to go in. So you are leaving your old self(ghost) behind, to expand your sense of self beyond of what you once thought yourself to be.

      I think I stop there, because this is atleast the main theme as I see in your dreams. You are questioning your present sense of self, from a level of your own interest and awareness in your self. That is ready to be realized by another perspective through dreams. In which the answears are hidden until they as they are ready to reveal them self for you, depending on your personal level of awareness. Even if our interpretations are not the same, I stil think that there could be multiple layers of realizations hidden from the same dream. So going with one's gut feeling is a good way to start a interetation from which I see that you have done here. I hope this was a somewhat helpful answear for you.
      You are not your thoughts...

      Many thanks DreamyBear for taking the time provide such a detailed interpretation. You are 90%+ accurate!

      I understand my dreams but I don't understand why my dream is telling me what I already know! Maybe my dreams are showing me what I already know so that I will stop telling myself I don't know how to interpret my dreams. But please read further.

      I moved out of the city 1 year ago and now live across the road from my parents. And for the last year I have been doing a lot of looking inside to see who I am and I've come to know many things. I guess the most difficult part has been the fact that I've not been able to talk to anyone (I mean no one. I've not spoken to another person in over 1 year). You many find this funny but I have only been able to achieve this by letting myself be guided by my Spirit Guide in the form of a pendulum. I don't make ANY decision without consulting my SG. In other words for the past year I have choosing not to exercise my own free will and I have come to experience me and life in ways I never imagined. My journey has been very painful because it needed to be but it has also been so rewarding. So now I try to remind myself - For the moment it is better for me not to exercise free will.

      Also I'm now starting to sense the world outside of my own skin e.g. by practicing All Day Awareness (which I discovered on my own before reading about it yesterday). For example recently I've had some spontaneous Awake Lucid Dreams. Very short ones like they were introductions!
      The first one was seeing myself as I am from the front. But when I looked at my self from behind the back part of my body was all maggots. This was fear and after I told myself I'm not afraid of this the image gave way to another nicer image.
      Yesterday I followed my SG's indication and listened to 30 minutes of jungle sounds. I found myself standing on leaves in the jungle, feeling the humidly, smells and sounds.

      Regarding dreams - last night was terrible. I nearly went crazy! I was dreaming non stop for 6+ hours. Because I feel I don't know how to interpret my dreams I felt very down and only recorded some of them which I've posted in my DJ.
      Its a very strange place to not be in a position to or choosing not to speak to ANYONE even when the pain is very great. And instead asking a pendulum!. Who I'm sure is so frustrated at my limited vocabulary of 2 or 3 questions. Same 2 or 3 questions for 1+ year! I'm crazy - lol I know!
