I was shopping in a grocery store. I had lots of cans among other things, but I specifically remember cans. I realized my shopping cart was a child's shopping car because it was way short and I had to hunch over to push it. Feeling a bit embarrassed, I moved my stuff to an adult shopping cart, but it was one of those weird ones with shallow, double-decker baskets that some stores have.
The whole time I was there I felt defensive over my stuff- I didn't want anyone to see what I was buying even though it was normal stuff.
As I was leaving with my stuff, I ran into these two guys. I think they may have been up to something, because I felt really defensive around them, too, and tried to tell if they were lying. I sat down in a chair just as Dr. Lightman from "Lie to Me" showed up. I noticed he was wearing a red sweater (this is significant somehow because I don't ever remember him wearing a red sweater in the show). He did his whole "Lie detector" thing on the two guys and scared them off. I remember being very quiet and almost wanting to disappear because I was afraid he would turn his lie detecting skills on me.
During this whole dream I was defensive and didn't trust anyone. What am I trying to hide?
This next part happened much later in the dream.
I had been wanting to see the moon. I was under some trees or something with my friends so I couldn't quite see it. I went out from under them to look at the sky. At first the moon looked normal, but then I realized that the moon was HUGE! It was practically taking up the whole sky! I hadn't noticed right away because only a small part of the moon was illuminated. This filled me with fear. I ran back to my friends, "Jesus Christ! Has anyone looked at the moon lately?!"
Key Words:
1. Shopping, Grocery Store, Cans, Shopping Cart, Child, Adult, Weird shopping Cart, Two Guys, Suspicious, Sat Down, Chair, Dr. Lightman, Red Sweater,
2. Moon, Friends, See, Can't see the Sky, Trees, Huge Moon,
Shopping- Looking to fulfill basic needs
ReplyDeleteGrocery Store Cans/Food- Basic Needs
Adult Shopping Cart- Shopping for Adult Needs
Child Shopping Cart- Shopping for Child Needs
Two Guys- People who are up to no good.
Sat Down- Backing down, letting someone else handle it.
Dr. Lightman- Certain aspects of him.
Red Sweater- Portraying self as Energetic, Courageous.
Sometimes I have what I think of as childish needs and I'm embarrassed of them. So I become defensive and don't want others to know about them. I try to have more adult needs but it just doesn't quite feel right.
I need to be more confident in myself, it would eliminate a lot of my problems.
2. Moon- a situation I thought was small but turns out to be huge.
ReplyDeleteFriends- Comfort.
Can't see the Sky- Unable to see possibilities.
Trees- Things that blocked me from seeing the situation for what it was.
Huge Moon- Huge situation.
There's a situation that appears to be small, but really isn't. Really it's so huge that I can barely see any hope of getting out of it. I need to look at it clearly and see it for what it is. Friends will be everything during this time.
