Dream Of Being Buried Alive 2

I was watching two of my friends were inserting a cannula into a patient in my home country. (I am a medical student, sri lankan, currently living in China). They were talking why I don't come often and I was telling that I am getting ready for the lisence exam, that's the only way to pass it in a one go. Then the scene shifted. I was looking for the friends of my mom, in Gampaha hospital where my mom used to work as a pharmacist for years. main drug store of the hospital is familiar to me and we were having a good chat, smiling. My mom's friends were appreciating me like always. Then, I came out of there and it was raining heavily. I walked along passages of wards and came out of the hospital. Since I know the hospital the scenes were very vivid. Suddenly I was walking with my high school friends and university friends in uniforms of my high school. It was raining and I was trying to overpass the uni friends who were talking and walking slowly. Because of umbrellas it was hard, and I couldn't go quickly. Then I saw we have reached the cemetery near my home. After passing the cemetery, it's my home. I wanted to go home quickly and tried to go by a grave. Suddenly i got trapped in to the ground. I can remember when I tried to come out my legs were hit by two three tombs. And I can remember a decaying mummy too. One of my high school friends too was with me. Hashini came and gave hand to her, ganguli. She could finally go a little higher compared to me. Meanwhile budhvin, one of my highschool friends tried to help me but he was so thin to drag me up. Then I was helping ganguli to go up first by pushing her so that both of her and hashini can help me to come out. Then I woke up five minutes before my alarm, 5.25 am.

Hey, it was dawn and I saw this dream. I am a Sri Lankan and currently living in China away from my home. I saw my mom has prepared some porridge and ask me to distribute them among us. I offered the first offering to Lord Buddha's offering tray and when I looked into pot with our cups I saw no porridge left there. And we understood that a spirit is living in our home. My father went and bought a fregrance from shop and we put it into the burnt coconuts shell and make the smoke spread everywhere in our home. (This is a traditional way we use in our country to fill houses with a pleasant smell, with prosperity). We took a pic before and after doing this. Saw our home was cleared with out the mist and saw the mist had shifted somewhere. It meant to shift it to the next place. We have a cemetery next to our home. But then the dream shifted and I saw my sister with me who is currently living in Australia. We were pasting the same fragrance dust there instead it throwing it to the coconut shells. When I asked why it was meant to destroy spirits than shifting them somewhere. It was somewhere like a temple that I've never visited. We were aiming fox symbols there, saying spirits go and stuck there. Saw blood came from some symbols when we paste the dust. Suddenly a spirit came out and my sister was fast enough to paste the dust on a symbol and it was destroyed. Then another spirit approached her she clearly screamed to paste the dust. I did that but the environment went black and white. I clearly saw a female spirit with a saree was looking at me and it went inside me. I tried to talk to my sis to inform her like she did but I couldn't speak. Before I take another glimpse of the dream suddenly I woke up at 5:58, two minutes before to my 6am alarm.

Dream About Sitting In Sunlit Cemetery

I was at a buffet with my sister for dinner at night. her and I were in the front of the line waiting to get salmon that was being offered, but there was a hold up because my sister wasn’t old enough to get salmon which I found strange. Either way, I ended up getting salmon And putting some on her plate as well. The dream transition to me being at a cemetery with my grandma on my dad’s side who had passed away and a man I’ve never met before who seemed to be my great grandfather. My great grandfather was old and frail using a walking stick. I was helping him walk down the stairs of the cemetery by holding his body and hand. as we were walking down my grandma and my great grandfather were talking about a flood that had affected the area a little while ago.  All of a sudden, my great grandfather started getting a weaker and more frail, and started to slowly collapse. The dream transition before he collapsed. The dream then turned into me playing baseball on 
Wii sports with someone, but I wasn’t able to hit any of the pitches that were thrown to me and I ended up going the whole game without scoring. even though it was frustrating wasn’t too upset because the game ended in a tie, zero to zero. Then all of a sudden I was playing football in a football stadium and my team was losing and I couldn’t do much about it, which was frustrating. We ended up losing the game. afterwards I found myself playing a game of soccer against some younger Italian kids and again I was frustrated because we’re losing to kids I know I should’ve been able to beat

Buffet, Cemetery, and Competitive Sports

The dream was tinged with frustration and confusion, especially during the sports sequences and the cemetery scene.

The dream had high intensity, particularly during the cemetery scene and the competitive sports games.

The realism was moderate, with familiar settings like a buffet and a cemetery, but the sports transitions were less realistic.

The dream was quite vivid, with clear details of the buffet, cemetery, and sports fields.

Jantzen, your dream is rich with symbolism and offers deep insights into your subconscious mind. Let's delve into the various elements. The initial scene at the buffet with your sister signifies a sense of responsibility and care you feel towards her. The hold-up because she wasn't old enough to get salmon might indicate a perceived barrier or challenge she is facing in real life, and your action of putting salmon on her plate shows your protective and supportive instincts. 

  The transition to the cemetery with your grandma and the unknown man, presumably your great grandfather, represents a connection to your ancestry and the wisdom of your forebearers. The act of helping your great grandfather down the stairs symbolizes your respect for the past and the guidance you seek from it. The conversation about the flood suggests unresolved emotions or past events that have impacted your family, hinting at a need for healing or resolution.

  As your great grandfather begins to collapse, the dream transitions, perhaps indicating your fear of losing touch with your roots or the frailty of family ties. The shift to playing baseball on Wii sports where you couldn't hit any pitches but ended in a tie reflects a sense of struggle and frustration in your current endeavors, yet it also shows your resilience and ability to accept outcomes without being overly distressed.

  The subsequent football game where your team is losing and your inability to change the outcome highlights feelings of powerlessness and frustration in situations you feel you should have control over. Finally, playing soccer against younger Italian kids and losing suggests a fear of being outperformed or underestimated despite your capabilities.

I find myself in a coffin as a 12 year old boy. I am wearing all white robes. I underneath my robes I am covered in sweat. This is clearly the aftermath of the rape I experienced at that age. I can also smell the order of my perpatrator on me. As I get out of the coffin I read the headstone which reads "Hayden G 1995-2008" which is the year I was born, and the year I was first raped. I walk around the cemetery and find many empty graves. These graves all appear to be children who were abused at some point in their lives. I leave the cemetery and enter my perpatrators house. However when I enter the room in which I was raped there is nothing there except a coffin with his name on it. Then I walk to my childhood home and I am greeted by my mom. I ask her what happened to my perpatrator and she doesn't even know who he is even though is real life she knew him.

The dream felt very realistic, as if I was truly experiencing it all over again.

Hayden, your dream delves deep into the realm of trauma and its lingering effects on your psyche. The image of being in a coffin as a 12-year-old boy clad in white robes symbolizes innocence tainted by a painful experience. The sweat under your robes signifies the enduring emotional turmoil you carry from the past. The headstone with your name and the years 1995-2008, marking your birth and the year of the trauma, highlights how this event has become a defining part of your identity. The empty graves in the cemetery represent the untold stories of others who have suffered similar fates, creating a sense of shared pain and isolation. Entering your perpetrator's house, only to find a coffin with his name, reflects a desire for closure and justice that eludes you. The absence of your mother's recognition of the perpetrator in your childhood home mirrors the complex nature of trauma's impact, sometimes hidden even from those closest to us. Your dream is a poignant reflection of unresolved trauma and the search for healing and understanding.

Dream Of Walking In Cemetery With Dread

I dreamt I was at a cemetery and I was looking for the grave of my great-grandmother and grandfather and someone I knew worked at the cemetery but she was busy and there were some folks who were waiting for a tour or something with this person and the next tour wasn't until 1pm and they were talking about having to wait and I was there just to find the information about my grandparents grave and so I was just kind of talking to them and explaining to them how the scheduling worked and why they did have to wait and yeah I guess just trying to talk them through it, calm them down when they were upset but without feeling any kind of responsibility for it. I was just there and just talking them through it but then I got what I needed. I found the section where my great-grandparents grave was and I was going to set out to go and look for it and I met up with my friend and we said hi and that was the end of it.

Hello Andrea,

	Your dream of being at a cemetery in search of your great-grandparents' grave, while also helping and explaining things to others, suggests a connection with your past and your heritage. It may reflect a contemplative period in your life where you're looking to understand where you come from and how it has shaped you. The fact that you weren't overwhelmed by responsibility and were able to find the grave signifies a sense of resolution and peace regarding your family history.

	Considering your previous dreams, there's a recurring theme of animals and protection, as well as moments where you take charge or provide guidance. This cemetery dream ties in with your role as a mediator and a source of calm for those around you, similar to the dream where you were steadying others amidst small troubles. Your ability to navigate emotionally charged situations with a sense of purpose and calm is a significant trait that surfaces in your dreams.

	Take care, Andrea, and reflect on these patterns that seem to be an integral part of your dream world. They may offer insights into your waking life and the strengths you inherently possess.

Dream Of Ghost Date Cemetery

Two boys being chased by an older man. He was tall with white hair and a heavily lined face. He was in a shiny black car. The car was an old fashioned make but it looked relatively new. The boys were short one had black curly hair and the other had brown curly hair. They were running down an old stone road which was cracked and broken and seemed to almost blend in with the landscape. The road was in the middle of a field of dead wheat bushes. There was a big black metal gate with a red brick wall around it. Behind the gate was a cemetery and a church. The church was made of white wood and looked old as it was starting to crumble and break. The brown haired boy made it to the church and sat on an old bench in amongst the gravestones. The black haired boy was still being chased down the road by the man. When the man saw the church he did a sudden U turn and drove away quickly. The boy felt an ominous feeling in his chest as he looked at the church but he went in and found his friend. Now the car was gone they both realised how ominously quiet it was. They could smell the crops rotting in the fields and the crumbling wood from the church. They realised they had absolutely no idea where they were and how they got here.

The dream is coherent, with a clear sequence of events as the boys are chased, reach the church, and find each other, followed by a sense of confusion and fear at their unknown location.

Hey Warren! Thank you for sharing your dream with me. It sounds like quite an intense and mysterious experience. In this dream, the presence of two boys being chased by an older man suggests a sense of fear or vulnerability in your waking life. The old man with white hair and a heavily lined face may represent authority or power that feels threatening to you.

	The setting of the dream, with the cracked stone road and dead wheat bushes, could symbolize a sense of desolation or stagnation in your current circumstances. The black metal gate and the crumbling church might signify a connection to something spiritual or sacred that is deteriorating or in need of attention.

	When the brown-haired boy reaches the church and sits on the old bench among the gravestones, it could indicate a desire for solace or refuge from the challenges you're facing. The sudden U-turn of the man when he sees the church suggests that confronting or acknowledging these deeper aspects of yourself or your situation can deter external threats or negative influences.

	The feeling of ominous quietness and the realization of being lost in an unfamiliar place could reflect a sense of confusion or uncertainty in your life right now. It's possible that you may be grappling with a situation where you feel out of control or unsure of your direction.

	Considering your previous dreams, such as the one with the river, forest, and disorientation, there seems to be a recurring theme of running away from something and experiencing pain or discomfort. These dreams may point to unresolved emotions or challenges that you are trying to avoid or escape.

	It could be beneficial to explore these feelings further and consider seeking support from someone you trust, like a friend or family member, to help navigate through these uncertainties. Remember, dreams offer valuable insights into our subconscious thoughts and emotions, and by exploring them, we can gain a better understanding of ourselves and find ways to address any underlying issues.

Dream About Boys Chased By Older Man And Finding Church

This dream was very choppy, it also could have been two separate dreams in the same night that went into each other. 
It started with me, I was selling tickets to watch a football game. 
It was weird because a lot of the people who were buying tickets to said football game were people I went to high school with. (I’m now 20) 
In this part of the dream it was like I was younger, maybe  16. 
Basically in my dream I was rushing to get my house clean to watch the football game, but the football field and bleachers were also inside my house. 
In my dream I could jump up and start flying. I would fly by everyone I knew sitting in the bleachers almost  to show off. 
At one point I flew over the football players of my favorite team. 
The odd thing is that nobody saw me or said anything to me. I was a ghost. 
Suddenly, the scenario changed. 
All the bleachers, the field, and players were gone and it was just my house. 
 I was rushing to find a tv to get the game set up for everybody who came but I couldn’t get it set up and I felt super embarrassed, my house was super messy and I was poor, I didn’t have cable to even watch the game. 
That’s when the dream cuts to a completely different setting, I was following my family members back from somewhere but we were all in different cars. 
We stopped at a gas station and some how i was left in that town at the gas station by myself with no vehicle. Completely stranded. 
Somehow the dream cut again and I was with 3 of my friends and we were all stuck in this other town that’s about 20 miles from where I live.
We tried calling people, but to no avail, for some reason we could not get a hold of anyone. 
This town was completely empty, no sign of life anywhere, it was dark, and there was a red haze over everything outside.
 In this dream, I was close with somebody that I haven’t talked to for years now, I was never close with them in real life it’s just somebody I know from school.
This person was not at his house, but we stopped at his house to get some stuff for our journey ahead even though he was not home, we just let ourselves in and I took one of his hoodies.
We then made our way outside his house and I put the name of our town into my Maps on my phone.
The route that was the fastest was down a spiral mountain that our town was at the very bottom of and we had to walk through a super long cemetery that went all the way down this spiral mountain. It also had that red haze all over it. 
There was 4 of us total, one of my friends refused to walk through the cemetery so she started trying to find a different route even though this one was the fastest. 
Originally one of my friends stayed back with her, and one of them was going to go with me, but when I turned to look behind me, all three of them were still standing back there, looking for a safer way.
I made the decision to keep going but before I made my way to the cemetery I woke up.

The dream's intensity fluctuates as the dreamer experiences moments of high energy and tension.

Dream elements are a mix of familiar and bizarre, creating a surreal atmosphere.

The dream is moderately vivid, with clear sensory details but some haziness in certain scenes.

Hey Jessica! Thank you for sharing your dream with me. It seems like a complex and vivid dream experience, so let's dive into the interpretation.

	The first part of your dream, where you were selling tickets and flying above everyone, might symbolize a desire for recognition and validation. It could reflect your longing to stand out and be noticed by those around you, especially people from your past. However, feeling like a ghost and not being acknowledged may indicate a fear of being overlooked or forgotten despite your efforts to impress others.

	The shift in the dream to finding a TV and feeling embarrassed about your messy house and financial situation suggests a sense of insecurity and self-consciousness. It may reflect concerns about how you are perceived by others, particularly in terms of material possessions and social status. This could stem from real-life experiences or pressures you may be facing.

	Being stranded at the gas station and later in an empty town with your friends highlights feelings of isolation and helplessness. The red haze and dark atmosphere may represent anxiety or uncertainty about the future. The presence of someone you haven't talked to in years at their house, taking their hoodie, and embarking on a journey together could symbolize seeking comfort or familiarity in past connections during challenging times.

	The decision to continue through the cemetery alone while your friends searched for an alternative route may signify your resilience and determination to face challenges head-on, even when others may hesitate. It shows your willingness to take risks and confront obstacles to reach your goals.

	Overall, this dream suggests a mix of desires for recognition, fear of being overlooked, and concerns about personal circumstances. It may be helpful to reflect on these themes and explore how they relate to your current life situation and emotions. Remember, dreams can provide valuable insights, but it's essential to consider them within the context of your own experiences and feelings.
