String of weird dreams, would like your input

[ShadowLurker89]

Ok so I put this in my thread where I introduced myself but thought it would be more relavant here so here it is again. I have been having weird dreams the past few nights and would like other people's views on possible meanings and interpretations. They have only really started since about Friday but have happened and seemingly continued on everynight so far since. The one common factor of them is a girl whom I have never met in waking life, nor have I met anyone who even remotley resembles her both looks and personality wise. So what I'll do is I'll write in as much detail as I can and hopefully some of you can give me your take and interpretations on it, they thing that's makes them so strange to me is that they are so vivid they feel as real as it does sitting here typing the message. So, basically here goes The girl first appeared briefly a few weeks ago, where I was walking down some sort of corridor and bump into her, she asks me where something is, I tell her but she hangs around for awhile and we chat until I wake up. She started making a regular appearance a few nights ago and has for the past 3 nights. Night 1 - Friday: I am at a some sort of show sitting in the audience and I can see a ring in front of me, probably indicating that it's Wrestling, Boxing or MMA (my 3 main favourite sports, plus made more realistic by the fact that I go to every single wrestling show in my local area). At first I just sit there for a while waiting, as the show seems to be in some sort of interval. Suddenly I look to my side and notice a cute girl who I get the feeling I know an that I'm that I'm with her but not totally confident with her yet sort of like being on a first date. Eventually, she turns to talk to me and chats for awhile (although I can't remember what about) after talking for awhile she notices me looking at her legs and says "go on, touch me if you want" and smiles and playfully giggles then I put my arm around her, we go to kiss but then I wake up not being able to tell if what I woke up into was real. Night 2 - Saturday: The third time she appeared was the 2nd time in 2 nights. This time we are walking fast through a residential area that I recognized from waking life but can't quite put my finger on where it is. Anyway, we are walking along and I have a feeling of danger and wanting to get out of the area. Eventually we wind up in some sort of shopping centre that is very busy and full of people and the feeling changes to a feeling of happiness and fun as we just playfully mess about with eachother for awhile until we end up holding eachother. We talk for awhile as I look directly into her eyes and feel an overwhelming feeling of love for her and eventually we realize that the shutters are coming down and the shopping centre is closing so hand-in-hand we go out through a door the oppisite side of where the shutters are and go down a flight of steps and pass a bunch of young lads (who I don't recognize from waking life) I say "No point going up there now lads, it's closing" one replies "Yeah, we know we are just gonna hang around here for abit" then me and the girl walk down and I hear them say something but didn't make out what it was then I wake up. Night 3- Sunday: By far the weirdest and the one that caused me to search google ending up in me finding this forum. Me and the same girl are in a strange place full of vines, bushes and dead tree leaves. She has tears in her eyes and I feel a sense of sympathy, I get the feeling she has just told me about something bad that happened to her in her past, I stand there with a feeling of not knowing what to do, she then comes up to me puts her arms around me neck then I put mine around her waste and we look into eachothers eyes for a few seconds and then we start to kiss, at this point I get another feeling of overwhelming love and passion but then she pulls away and says "sorry, I can't do this" and runs away up some old looking steps. The next thing I know I get a flash of white light then I'm in what appears to be a church or tomb standing on a balcony, on the wall other side is a skelatal angel with steps going up either side of it and I get the feeling that it's the girl I had just kissed. I look behind me and see what appears to be a coffin with people I don't now laughing and being just downright A**holes about her, I look over to the angel again and say to myself with an overwhelming feeling of sadness and love towards the girl and anger towards those people "Even in death, they still make fun of her" Then everything goes white again and I wake up in with every detail of the dream fresh in my mind. OK I don't know what you make of that, the thing that makes them feel so strange is the fact that all of them have felt so real and are in my head the entire day after. If anyone can give my their take on it or an interpretation I'd love to see what you have to say so plz plz plz reply, any contributions would be much appreciated

I quicky read your original post but haven't really digested it enough yet to give a reply I can stand by. Hopefully I'll be able to post something soon.

Well I can relate totally to the idea of a stranger in a dream being a dream lover. I have a young woman who visits me occasionally and is just like you describe - toally accepting of me and me totally at one with her. She's what Jung would call an "anima" and I suspect this girl is yours. My belief (drawing on various theories) is that we have an idealised opposite-sex construct in our unconscious that is projected onto dream characters and indeed onto people in real life (who never in the end live up to our expectations!). She'll be back, I'm sure, despite that last scene. Although she may appear different. Remember she's your own construct, so treat her well in your dreams and in real life. Sounds cheesy but she is you after all - your feminine side if you like. The rest of the imagery leaves me on more speculative ground. Her running away sounds like you're learning that "she" is not just a sexual object. She has other aspects to her character which in time you'll learn about. I suspect this links to something you're being challenged with in real life just now. In effect it is your feminine side that wasn't "ready for this". Sounds crazy, but the message is perhaps that you identify with a woman who is scared to get too sexually involved with you. The final scene is scary, yes. Remember it's just a dream and you're seeing your constructs of how things appear to your undeveloped unconscious. The scene is one of death and it has very spiritual symbolisms to it. Like someone sacred has been sacrificed or something. I won't try to interpret this bit as it sounds like the meaning is a very personal one, so I would urge you to consider what it is that the death represents. I'm not surprised you wanted to discuss these dreams. In my opinion, our understanding and integration of our opposite-sex self is one of the most rewarding aspects of dream work. It frees us from making demands on others to be someone they're not.

Thanks for that Burned Up. I think you are probably right on most of what you say it means in that post. However, even I am having trouble working out what the tomb, the angel and the coffin means. I fortunatley haven't had anyone pass away as of yet in my life (hopefully it stays that way for alot longer) so I doubt it's the literal meaning of death but apart from that I have no idea what it could be about (maybe it's something in my subconcious?) The bit that confused me was the part where I say "Even in death, they still make fun of her". When I woke up I was like "what the HELL did that mean!". Anyway, thanks for your input alot of what you say makes sense and relates perfectly to me.

Perhaps try and work out who are "they" to you? Best of luck!

Thanks dude, I'll have to have a think about that one but I'm sure it means something. BTW, just thought I'd let you know that you were exactly right when you said she'd be back as she made a short cameo last night, slightly different hairstyle but everything else was exactly the same, more about it in my dream journal
