Thread: "Destined to hit when the smoke hits the water"

Do you know the song "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple? Maybe it has something to do with it.

Where there is smoke, there is usually fire somewhere. While water can extinguish a fire, but there can be smoke on the water when there is fire nearby. Water often symbolizes the subconscious. Fire makes me think of crisis, emergency, heat, anger, strong emotion. Smoke could also be there after fire is gone already, when it is past the main event, and only smoke remains.

I was struck how in this dream, even though you were thrilled that you were asked to perform, but you delayed and procrastinated. Searching out make up, putting down and then having to find the ukulele. You reject the nadalele because it is just too nice to play - is that also a delaying tactic. Then the other kids begin to play, and presumably that also means the timing is not right for you to perform.

Maybe the smoke on the water obscures it, and instead of seeing clearly and doing what you really want, excuses and delays, cause the timing to not be right, obscuring the real reason why you are not ready to perform, much like smoke is obscuring the water, what is on your mind that you have set up delaying tactics and excuses not to perform, maybe?
