Although in order to provide a more accurate interpretation it would usually be best to have some current general background information about you (and a description of events just before the dream), looking at your previous posts has given a picture of what’s being going on in the past which might help to decipher this dream.
For example, sometimes you’re naturally afraid of how things are going to work out for you about your future and about trying things like going back to school which you may have done by now.
The dream about the bull at your wedding was probably trying to encourage you to get a hold of such fears and to not let them disappear from your awareness (e.g. you save the bull from being “killed”, that is, from being “totally unconscious”).
By being brave and trying new things etc., you can “unite with” (e.g. getting married in the dream) a strong part of yourself.
So a man in the dreams of a girl usually symbolizes her so-called “masculine” side like being strong and determined, not giving up, being assertive and thinking for herself etc., and “marrying” this side of herself makes her more complete as a person, allowing new parts of herself (e.g. symbolized by babies) to appear and grow.
Your dream about the small penis of the guy you were crushing on might have meant that you yourself at the time weren’t “masculine” enough and weren’t pushing forward firmly enough to reach your goals.
Instead, you apparently sometimes just wanted to forget about your wish to be successful etc. and to kind of dive into a quiet, peaceful fantasy life where nothing much would hurt anymore (e.g. the dream about just wanting to dive into the peaceful water).
The problem is that if we try to forget too much any feelings of disappointment and fear etc. etc. connected to getting what we want, our unconscious side can then “bite” us (e.g. like the black lizard on your arm who’s biting you but you don’t feel anything).
Our instinctive side just won’t accept us not feeling things because without emotions, we can lose our bearings.
So a “bite” means that our natural, instinctive side is “angry” with us. In a practical way, this can lead to us feeling too down sometimes or to feeling scared all the time for no real reason etc. etc.
In 2015, it looks like for some reason you might have gradually became even more disconnected from your healthy instinctive side which can provide you with gut feelings, intuitions, helpful spontaneous thoughts and courage etc. etc., e.g. the female turtle is killed by a man, an older white man eats an uncooked crow).
These men aren’t being “kind to your instincts” and probably symbolize nagging thoughts and opinions that fly through your brain sometimes, saying things like “You’re so dumb, why go back to school anyway” etc. etc.
So the dream about the dry-skinned, pale-faced woman might mean something like you’ve “survived” feelings of disappointment etc. by almost totally getting rid of them from your awareness.
But a part of you inside can’t forget them and they “follow you around” like the woman does, coming out as mentioned in things like feeling tired too much of the time or in having too many headaches etc.
The frightening image of the woman nailing down your left foot probably symbolizes the idea that ignoring certain painful emotions etc. could “bring you to a standstill” because helpful feelings and ideas etc. from your unconscious mind (as symbolized by the “left” foot) will be “immobilized” way too much.
So the dream probably shows that you have to take active steps to remove what’s keeping you from being alive and open again to your inner side so that you can move forward more fully over time.
Anyway as mentioned, without knowing anything much about you, this way of looking at your dream might not fit your personal circumstances very well, but I hope these ideas can be helpful in some way.
Please feel free to ask any questions or to make any comments about this particular way of looking at your dream.
