Dream About Mysterious Pool Investigation

Mary, the dream you shared is rich with symbolism and layered meanings. The setting of a large in-ground pool suggests a deep exploration of your subconscious mind, a place where emotions and memories reside. The mystery you are trying to solve indicates a search for understanding or resolution of past events or traumas. The fact that you are investigating alongside others, including Hermione—a name that might symbolize wisdom or knowledge—suggests that you are seeking answers not just within yourself but also through external sources of wisdom. The presence of the two former lovers in their 50s could represent your reflections on past relationships and how they have impacted you. The unknown man who smells like a forest might symbolize a natural or instinctual part of yourself that is still unfamiliar but holds significance in your journey. The English garden setting, foggy at dawn, creates an atmosphere of mystery and uncertainty, mirroring perhaps the confusion or lack of clarity you feel in certain aspects of your life. Finding the ancient altar behind the rotting wooden red X can be seen as uncovering old, perhaps neglected, aspects of yourself that need attention and care. Cleaning up the altar and lighting a candle signifies a desire to bring light and understanding to these hidden parts of your psyche. This act of caretaking suggests that you are ready to confront and heal from past wounds. The interaction with other investigators who are unable to provide satisfactory theories indicates your skepticism towards external opinions and a reliance on your intuition.
