Death and resurrection

[Dreamer22]

Hi everyone first post to the forum here! I had a dream last night which I would be very grateful if anyone could help interpret it! It started off with me my mum, girlfriend and a few kids (not sure whose they were) watching aeroplanes come into land from a nearby field. The first plane over cut the runway and had to pull up at the last minute. The second plane came down right after the first and because of the first ones mistake had to make a crash landing. It exploded once (with the explosion being extremely similar to the one in Japan earlier this week) then exploded again as we all started to run away. We were running up the steps as the fireball was getting closer,and I let everyone else go before me to try and save them. The fire engulfed us all and we all died. Then a kind of narrator said in my head ''then they died and went to hell'' I open my eyes (still dreaming) and I'm under my duvet, I can hear thousands of screams of pain and see a red glow through the duvet. The screaming suddenly stopped and it goes back. Somehow I know then get to choose when in my life I get to wake up (like I've got a second chance) I first think of going back to my old house when I was 10 but then change my mind to come back to this date (today). I then wake up feeling quite strange. Thanks in a advance for any replies!

Although in order to provide a more accurate interpretation it would usually be best to have some general background information about you, a few ideas about your dream can be tried out to see if they might fit your personal circumstances in some way. For example, the presence of your mum and girlfriend might be showing that the dream is dealing mostly with your emotional life instead of, say, how you think logically about things. On analogy, aeroplanes are generally linked with thinking and the intellect because they fly in the sky. The latter is connected with “spirit” and thought, as is the colour blue. Maybe just before the dream, it’s possible that a state of thinking or decision-making etc. went “too far” in some way (plane over cut the runway). Or it may be that something along these lines has been going on for quite a while. In any case, a “mistake” is involved, perhaps related in some way to emotions and feelings (as mentioned already regarding the presence of your mum and girlfriend) as well as by the subsequent explosions which may be symbolic of anger, bitterness or some other strong emotional outburst etc. The danger could be that, if some kind of unhelpful habit or attitude etc. isn’t dealt with over time, the result could potentially be having too many “explosions” of emotions which could damage relationships with others, for example, and lead to even further problems with feelings of self-esteem etc. (e.g. everybody dies and goes to hell; you want to hide under your duvet cover and are tempted to “return to childhood” as an escape). As a very general example, a person who is very good with their mind and in solving problems using the intellect can understandably become wrapped up in this side of themselves. As a consequence, the problem is that they can tend to not pay enough ongoing attention to their own emotions and those of others. So on the one hand, frustrations, anger, jealousies and so on can build up, exploding in unpleasant and unexpected outbursts, while a lack of empathy and sympathy regarding the feelings and needs of others can lead to people feeling that they’re being discounted and ignored, therefore damaging the growth of positive enough relationships over time. Anyway as mentioned, without knowing anything about you, this interpretation may not fit your personal circumstances very well if at all, but I hope that these ideas can be helpful in some way. Please feel free to ask any questions or to make any comments about this way of looking at your dream.
