I thought it would be interesting to see what anyone may think these recurring dreams are.
Most recurring dreams I have I am either in HS or college. Normally it's before a test, I know I didn't study, and I want to get to my locker to get my books to study. The whole time walking to my locker, I'm trying to recall my locker combination.
Normally I don't get it. Once in a while I will (I think when this happens, I am slightly lucid which helps open the locker). But the main "stress" I feel from these dreams are:
1. The test for which I'm not prepared
2. Not remembering the combination to my locker
I was an average student in school. Now I'm married, have a 14Mo daughter, run my own sucessful business and am happy. But I think part of my mind is telling me I would enjoy more school? Or that I regret not studying as hard as I should have? :)
As for the locker, who knows. Maybe I forgot my combination once or twice in high school.

OMG, you've just described the dreams I have! I also experience recurring dreams taking place in my old high school. And I can't find my locker, or I forget the combination, or I bring the wrong books to class. I know exactly what you are talking about!
I always thought I had these dreams because I had to leave the school where I grew up to go to another high school for only my junior and senior year. But I dream of my old high school before I moved. So I thought it was because I missed those days and it all happened so fast that I never got closure.
I dunno, that's just my own interpretation. I'd also like someone else's take on these dreams.

Well, I never had to move, had a great high school experience, and don't really remember forgetting my combo bothering me as the office always had them all on file.
Wrong books to class.. oh man! I forgot about that one. Weird huh? It has to mean something.
I don't regret much from those days.. even being an average student. I'm happy, successful, etc. Just weird that it's recurring like that. Maybe I need to make it my "dream escape" or whatever it's called. :)

these sorta stressful nightmares are fairly normal. they generally tend to mean exactly what the dream is showing you, that you dont feel prepared :bowdown: or that you werent ready, or that you forgot something important
my suggestion would be, to go lucid and trash the whole classroom!!! >:0

If these are recurring dreams seems like a good dream sign if you ask me. :)

I've read in a number of places that dreams involving any kind of place of work (school, college, offices) usually mean that the work aspect of your life is tending to overwhem you.
I know that sounds boringly obvious but I can only go on what I've read as I've only ever had very few work-place dreams in my life, and it usually involved me being naked. !?!
Maybe your business is taking up a lot of your life and your subconscious is trying to tell you take some time out?

Just reading this I thought of what I would do. First, of course would be to use this for RC's to induce Lucidity. And personally I would take a class somewhere, even at a community college or something, some topic you're midly interested in and do very well and prepare like crazy for the tests. And everytime you walk into the building, do a RC.
Of course with a new child you're probably pretty busy. Good luck!

Man I wish I had a good regular dream sign like this... it would make it a lot easier
-
I get dreams of school whenever I get stressed at work and sick of my job. Usually in those dreams I'm cutting class.
-
I often have dreams where I am at school (or on the bus)
When I am worried they appear in my dreams.
-
I often have dreams of school. Not of the stress and illogic of the social order in high school (Where I'm currently attending in my freshman year), but of elaborate, Large Buildings that have many corridors and places to see, with crappy Student art lining the walls :bigteeth:
I'm usually there visiting a friend, and I'm on some sort of break day, or I'm trying to mentally track down a friend that I've lost over time (I know a few dreams where this has happened) and am tracking them down through the school system.
Those are sometimes my most adventurous dreams!

A recurring dream is usually trying to tell you something that you didn't get the last time. About taking the test and not being prepared I personally think mean actually you're not prepared for something.
I usually get recurring dreams of school during the summer vacation. For me it's the same dream that can go on for weeks. It usually what mark I'll get on a test over and over again or the same situations. Funny enough, these marks and situations occur later on in the school year.
Lately I've been having recurring dreams about work well.. not work I volunteer at the hospital. I've been going back and forth if I should leave or not. I joined to get the 40+ hours to graduate and now I find myself meeting new friends but accepting the hospital. I don’t like volunteering there it isn't my thing but I've leaned to make the best of it. So I've been having recurring dreams of volunteering there doing the same thing.
Personally for my own interpretation I believe it means that I should stop procrastinating about it and go back..but I don't want to gah..
