The dream itself was very long and complicated, but I've looked up a few of the main symbols this morning, and every one of them is relevant to my convalescing after a hysterectomy!
The dream itself seemed to start off with me being in my friend's garage, and a mechanical jumping bean type thing started jumping around. It jumped into a doll and brought it to life. I managed to get rid of that one, but then somehow the jumping bean found it's way into a life-sized man doll type thing, which them started stalking me and then tried to me
The only way I could get rid of it was to cut my boobs off and give them to him/it :shock:I went swimming in a lagoon type thing that was in the centre of about 4 or 5 sand dunes, but it managed to find me again and I had to again try to escape from it. My memory of the dream is a bit hazy after that, and it ended when I managed to trick it into being on a trainline so that a passing freight traincould run it over
Anyway, I looked up the most significant things that I could think of and here's what the website said....
To dream that you are in a garage, signifies a period of inactivity and idleness in your life. You may feel that you have no direction or guidance toward achieving your goals
To see or eat beans in your dream, signifies your connection to your roots and to humanity. Consider what binds you to your community. Alternatively, beans are symbolic of the soul and of immortality. They also relate to fertility.
To dream that a doll comes to life, signifies your desires to be someone else and escape from your present problems and responsibilities. Dolls may serve as a means to act out your wishes.
To dream that you are swimming, suggests that you are exploring aspects of your unconscious mind and emotions. The dream may be a sign that you are seeking some sort of emotional support. It is a common dream image for people going through therapy.
To see a sand dune in your dream, signifies your desires to be sheltered from the bitterness of reality.
To dream that you have been , suggests a sadistic expression of sexual desire. You may be expressing an unconscious desire to be violated, conquered, or forced into forbidden territory. Some women have a desire to be sexually overpowered, but not hurt. It also indicates vengeful feelings toward the opposite sex. Alternatively, it suggests that you are feeling violated in some way. Something or someone is jeopardizing your self-esteem and emotional well-being. You feel that someone or something is being forced upon you.
To see a train in your dream, represents conformity and go along with what everyone else is doing. You have the need to do things in an orderly and sequential manner. In particular, if you see a freight train, then it refers to the burdens and problems that you are hauling around.
The only bit that I couldn't find a reference to was the chopping off of my own boobs, but it's been suggested by a friend that it could be a reference to loss of sexuality (or at least sexually related body parts :dunno
I thought it was all spookily accurate, just wondering if anyone else had ever looked into dream interpretation and what the outcome was, also whether anyone else had any ideas about the boob thing.
(BTW, I'd be devastated to lose my boobs, they're probably my favourite part of my body :cry:)
