Little Blindfolded Girl

[illidan]

Hey, I had this weird dream a few nights ago and I am not sure what it means; if anything. Here's the dream: I was in school sitting with a bunch of other students and teachers in front of a student group room, a place where students can work when they don't have any classes; btw. this was outside, the room has a door to the outside. I was playing with my knife. Then a teacher told me to put it away. I complied. Later when I was about to drive home with my bike I was talking to this other student. He asked me why I hadn't given him my invitation for the graduation party, as I havn't gone there. I said, if I had known he was interested I would have given it to him. Then I wanted to leave, but as I looked back to the student he was gone. In his place there was a little girl. She was about 5 or 6, had long white hair and was wearing a blindfold. Then I woke up. Ok, there are several strange things about this dream. First, the knife: I have one, I used to use it for carving and stuff, but I rarely use it now. I was never the student to bring a knife to school, I would have never done that. About the graduation party: there were no invitations, only graduates were allowed to come. About the girl: I have absolutely no idea. I've never seen her before. About me: I am 19, male, I don't go to school anymore, I graduated a month ago. In the past few months I have been constantly dreaming about school. I don't know why. I hope I have given enough information. If not, tell me what you need to know for an interpretation. I am particularly interested in what the little blindfolded girl could mean. Thanks.

Blindfold itself - sightless, you said that you are done with school, does that mean you aren't going to college? Maybe you don't know what you are doing with your life, thats why she showed up just after discussing a graduation party. It could also be why you keep dreaming about school, but that's not that uncommon. I'm a senior in college and still have a dream in my high school once a week. You probably just miss your friends since I assume that most are working and you don't get to see them everyday anymore. No idea why it would be a little girl, maybe to signify vulnerability.

Thanks for the input. I have to admit, being blind is one of the things I really imagine to be horrible. About my life: actually I have pretty much planed it out. After I'm done with my civilian service, I want to study at a university. I already know what university and what study course.

well dreams can relate to immediate emotions and dilemmas from the day before. did you feel like a little girl lost on the day beforre? did you worry that others thought you were small and powerless and in need of help(like the little blindfolded girl)? ------------------------ There are no hard and fast rules concerning symbolism. Its a matter of using several methods. Some symbols maybe completely textbook in their meaning. A soldier may symbolise the tough struggle you are having to face at the moment. A vampire may represent someone who is draining you of all your energy. These simple and textbook symbolic meanings may work. Do not make the mistake of thinking that your symbols may have the same meaning each time. A symbol may represent one meaning in one dream and another in another. Your dream mind uses symbols in the way that people use words to express their thoughts. The meanings are rich and varied. Sometimes a symbol may have a positive and sometimes a negative meaning. Added to this remember that dream symbols will not give any hints as to when the dream refers to. The dream will not indicate if this is about something that has just happened. It will not tell you if the dream is about yesterday or about today. It will not tell you if the dream is about you or if its about someone close to you. Many symbols have extremely personal meanings. So try to work through these. Think about everything within the dream and make associations with real life. If your dream contains a screwdriver think of ways in which you used a screwdriver the previous day. If you drank a screwdriver cocktail then the dream may refer to that in some way. Dreams do not feel it is necessary to reveal how they work. Its likely that you will benifit from the dream even if you do not remember it or interpret it. Think of dreams like telephones. You can use a telephone without knowing to need how telephones work.

Thanks for the tips. I can't think of any obvious connection to the day before or any other event at another time. The links seem to be helpful. Thanks. I'll take a look at it.

Well if you are moving from school into the wider world then dreams about school may simply be showing that yiou are having to deal with the transition ------------------------ Many people write dream diaries. But actually it would be better if they wrote a normal diary. A diary is basically the highlights of the previous day and the things that are important to you. Dreams are exactly the same. Once understood they would symbolize those key moments and turning points in your feelings. So instead of interpreting the dreams try first to guess what the most likely issues are that you would dream about. Think of exactly the same things that you would write in a diary. Once decoded the dreams would symbolize exactly what you think on the key subjects dominating your mind. Think of quotes that capture your feelings such as "my father seems very quiet. I think that something is very wrong. He often starts going quiet when something happens". You may not be able to understand the exact nature of the symbols. http://unclesirbobby.110mb.com/dreamessayhowtopost.php Interpreting dreams http://unclesirbobby.110mb.com/dreamessayhowto.php Triggers for dreams http://unclesirbobby.110mb.com/dreamessay.php Dream dictionary
