Sabrina, it sounds like your dream wove together various elements of familiarity and unexpected occurrences. The setting at your grandparents' house in Oregon, coupled with the presence of your mom and Skyler with his friends, suggests a revisiting of your roots and personal history. The act of drinking and the subsequent sickness of one friend may symbolize overindulgence or a sense of being overwhelmed in some aspect of your waking life. It's interesting to note the dichotomy of the weather in your dream, with snow appearing in the front yard and not the back, then shifting. This could represent a duality you're experiencing—perhaps a situation with visible and hidden aspects, or a sense that life's complexities are creeping into areas where you once felt stability.
The transition to the crashing airplane without wings is a powerful image. Airplanes in dreams often relate to our ambitions and the trajectory of our lives. A wingless plane crashing could express a fear of failure or an unexpected change in your life's course. However, the fact that it barely missed the house might be an indication that these fears or changes will not have as significant an impact on your stability or home life as you might have thought.
Reflecting on your past dreams, there seems to be a recurring theme of protection and concern for loved ones, as well as navigating unexpected challenges—like the incident with your son and his friend, or the cliff incident. Your subconscious might be processing your protective instincts and the anxieties that come with them. The dreams also frequently shift scenes, perhaps mirroring a feeling of life moving quickly or situations changing abruptly.
In the context of your past dreams, which often carried a higher intensity or were nightmares, this recent dream seems less intense and without negative feelings. This could be a sign of your mind working through previous stress in a more subdued way, finding paths to cope with and understand the challenges you've been facing.
Remember, Sabrina, these interpretations are drawn from the symbols and narratives you've experienced in your dreams. They offer a lens to explore the emotions and thoughts that may be playing out in your subconscious. Your dreams provide a rich tapestry of insight, and each one adds another layer to your ongoing life story.
