Crystal, your dream is an intricate tapestry of your subconscious mind, reflecting various facets of your life, emotional states, and inner conflicts. The dream begins with you revisiting a familiar role in sales, which could symbolize a return to a past mindset or set of challenges. The act of going around to clients and giving them something might represent your desire to meet expectations and provide value in your waking life. The client whose shoes were almost on your face suggests a feeling of being overwhelmed or suffocated by demands placed on you, and your need to ask them to readjust so you could breathe indicates your struggle to assert your boundaries and ensure your own well-being.
Another client’s assurance about being on a 'one shoe a week program' might symbolize a measured approach to their needs, contrasting with your own possibly more chaotic or demanding circumstances. The exchange of money as a gift to show gratitude could represent your yearning for appreciation and acknowledgment, possibly highlighting your own feelings of underappreciation or the effort you put into your relationships and work.
Meeting Kelly, your successful friend, and having an uplifting lunch with her suggests a source of inspiration and guidance in your life. Kelly's presence and advice likely represent your aspirations and the importance of aligning with your values and goals. The upbeat feeling you had while continuing your route through the mall indicates a sense of motivation and positive energy derived from this interaction.
The part of the dream where you encounter a persistent male figure in the mall, usually trying to catch your attention, could symbolize unwanted distractions or advances in your life. Your decision to run, not out of fear but to avoid him, and shedding a big jacket to run faster, signifies your determination to escape unnecessary hindrances and streamline your efforts towards your goals.
Waiting for public transportation with Kelly in the dark, noticing the humorous sign, and the commotion involving a snake on Kelly's clothes, brings a mix of light-heartedness and anxiety. The snake, often a symbol of transformation or hidden fears, might represent underlying concerns or changes in your life. The giant white tag on the snake as it went into the gutter could imply a clear but discarded warning or message that you need to pay attention to.
Finally, your interaction with Ryan, Kelly's husband, where he drives erratically and you almost fall out of the car, suggests a sense of instability or unpredictability in certain relationships or situations. His desire to 'sing HU' like you and your willingness to join him points towards a shared search for spiritual or emotional harmony. However, your internal conflict about not focusing on revenue-generating activities while spending time with him highlights an ongoing struggle to balance personal connections with professional responsibilities.
Overall, Crystal, your dream intricately weaves together themes of professional pressure, personal boundaries, inspiration from successful peers, avoidance of distractions, underlying anxieties, and the search for balance between personal fulfillment and professional duties. Each element of your dream offers valuable insights into your current state of mind and the areas you might need to address to achieve a more harmonious and fulfilled life.
