In one dream, I was watching a quartet or quintet perform in a huge, pretty church. It looked like somewhere I’d performed with an orchestra in the past, but here I was in the audience. I had spent several performances sitting next a blonde white man, but at this one I’d chosen to sit next to a friend from middle school, Lydia. He informed me he’d decided to sit with other people for this performance, which meant nothing to me as I’d decided to do the same thing. He sat nearby against a wall, with other men. I and a lot of women were in the main part of the audience. I asked Lydia to sit next to her, which she agreed, and she linked her arm in mine as I sat. We mostly watched a cellist tune and warm up onstage. I was sitting far stage left and the angle was such that I couldn’t really see the performers or what all instruments were involved. I don’t remember getting to an actual performance. 

In another dream a white man in a purple suit and top hat, his style a bit like Willy Wonka’s, was walking towards a large house in the middle of a sandy desert. The house had a large brick wall painted black, with a sign on it that said something like “MURDERED WIFE AND CHILD—INQUIRE WITHIN!” The home belonged to a man that may have murdered his family and he was eager to show it off. The top hat man saw the sign, and horrified, decided to investigate. He noticed cameras all around the top of the tall house, trying to capture reactions. He walked to another side of the house, angling for the door, but I as myself was thinking the cameras are catching him and he is in danger. Just then unknown footsteps could be heard behind top hat man. He slid off his shoes in an attempt to mute the sound of his own footsteps, and he took off running. He ran to a neighbor’s house, which was white with blue trim I think. I heard or saw via news report somehow that he had passed the afternoon visiting a neighbor, hiding effectively from the murderer, until he could decide what to do about the situation. Then I woke up.

The narrative shifted from a peaceful concert to a suspenseful chase, resulting in a somewhat disjointed storyline.

Performance and Pursuit

The dream carried a mix of nostalgia and tension, especially while sitting with Lydia and watching the performance.

The feeling of urgency escalated during the second dream as the top hat man faced an unseen threat.

The setting of the concert hall felt familiar yet dreamlike, blending elements of past experiences with surreal details.

The imagery of the large house in the desert and the vibrant purple suit were strikingly clear and memorable.

Mercy, your dream is a rich tapestry woven with themes of performance, connection, and danger, reflecting various aspects of your emotional landscape. The imagery of the quartet or quintet performing in a beautiful church suggests a longing for harmony and artistry in your life. This setting is important, as it evokes a sense of nostalgia, perhaps connected to your past experiences with orchestras. It seems that you are seeking to reconnect with parts of yourself that resonate with creativity and collaboration, as indicated by your choice to sit next to your friend Lydia instead of the previous companion. This decision highlights your desire for meaningful connections and support from those who truly understand you, moving away from superficial interactions.

  Your interaction with Lydia, where she links her arm with yours, signifies a deep bond and mutual trust. It suggests that you cherish friendships that provide emotional support, especially during uncertain times. The fact that you are unable to see the performers clearly may represent feelings of being on the periphery of important events in your life, perhaps feeling overshadowed or unsure about your role in a larger context. This might indicate a need for clarity in your personal relationships or career, as you navigate through feelings of visibility and acknowledgment.

  In the second part of your dream, the white man in the purple suit symbolizes an exploration of the unknown and the whimsical nature of life’s mysteries. His choice to investigate a house marked by a horrific sign reveals a confrontation with darker aspects of existence, perhaps reflecting fears or anxieties that you hold about your surroundings or societal issues. The house itself, with its ominous background, could represent something in your life that feels threatening or unresolved, suggesting there are hidden fears that you might need to examine more closely.

  The presence of cameras capturing reactions points to a feeling of being observed, which could mirror your own concerns about how you are perceived by others. This aspect of your dream emphasizes the pressure to react in a certain way, or to present a facade that may not align with your true feelings. As the man runs, you express a fear for his safety, which may symbolize your own desire to escape from situations that feel dangerous or overwhelming.

Dream About Music Performance And Murder Mystery

I dreamed that I was in a desert like place and from far away I saw a blight shining light coming down towards a body like on the ground. I went close too it. And I placed one hand on the ground and the other onto the sky

The sequence of events felt somewhat disjointed, but the central imagery remained clear and impactful.

Desert Light Encounter

The dream conveyed a sense of awe and curiosity as I approached the shining light.

The intensity was moderate, as I felt a mix of excitement and trepidation approaching the light.

The dream had a surreal quality, with the desert environment feeling both familiar and strange.

The details were quite vivid, especially the contrast between the bright light and the barren surroundings.

Gricel, your dream presents a striking imagery that can be unpacked on multiple levels, revealing profound insights about your inner world and current state of being. The setting of a desert-like place often symbolizes feelings of isolation or desolation, suggesting that you may be experiencing a sense of emptiness or longing in some aspect of your life. This vast, barren landscape may reflect a personal journey where you feel a lack of resources, whether emotional or physical, and could indicate a search for meaning or direction amidst uncertainty.

  The shining light descending from above can be interpreted as a beacon of hope or inspiration. It signifies guidance or enlightenment that you may be seeking, perhaps related to a decision or situation in your life. This light symbolizes clarity, and your instinct to approach it suggests a willingness to embrace new insights or revelations. The act of moving closer to the light shows your desire to connect with something greater than yourself, which may hint at spiritual exploration or a yearning for deeper understanding in your current life circumstances.

  When you place one hand on the ground and the other towards the sky, this gesture is profoundly symbolic of balance and connection between your earthly existence and higher aspirations. It suggests a desire for grounding while simultaneously reaching for something transcendent. This duality reflects your need to reconcile your physical reality with your spiritual or emotional aspirations. It could indicate a struggle to find equilibrium between the practical aspects of your life and your dreams or desires.

Dream About Desert Light Body

I was in the massive barn like structure. It was grey and worn down. The inside was abandon and empty. Dust covered everything. It was the only building around for miles. The land was flat and dead. No life was growing just small patches of dead grass everywhere. Might as well have been in the desert. No one else was around. The sun was high and blinding but it wasn’t hot. There’s a tornado coming towards the building and I remember being terrified. It was huge sent dirt everywhere. It just barely missed the building. Next thing I know I’m outside about 30 feet away when a second tornado appears and tears right through the middle of the building. Destroying it. I remember running as fast as I could to the building because in my mind my son was trapped inside and I was terrified that the tornado might have killed him. I’m not sure if I ever made it to the building

I was hanging out with this guy I was seeing, he resembles someone from my past (whom I tried pursue a few years ago but ended shortly before he was unfaithful and very negative) and I think we were flings/sexual partners. We were in the apartment or hotel room, though it looked like someone actually lives there and we were with a bunch of others watching shows and movies on the TV. He was good company it felt good having him there, then we went to bed or took a nap more like but when I woke up he was no longer behind me he has left for some reason. I went to look for my phone to see if he messaged me but I couldn’t find my phone, I decided to use a different device to call my phone. I was walking in the local area of where I lived though it felt eerie and empty, especially because there’s been crime that happened in my neighborhood in the past. I was in front of the building of the elementary school I used to attend, and usually the school’s park there, and extra space on the other side. But instead it looked like a dessert and I had run through because it felt scary having walk on it and I winded up running towards the public park next to the school where I seen two older kids playing catch with some really small balls.

I can’t remember most of the dream, so I’ll just tell you the small amount of stuff that I can remember. I was a pretty skinny (in a healthy way)orange cat and I was in this desert like area. There were people working there. They each had a barrel filled with coal and a thin but slightly tall “building” (idk what to call it) that was sorta like a bigger greenhouse next to them. I was being very cautious and was sneaking low to the ground. Then I got up and started sprinting past everyone. I can’t remember clearly, but I think I was on a mission of some sort that ended up getting me in the desert and the people were trying to kill me for no reason (this is just a wild guess, so I could be completely wrong). Anyways, I was running and some guy caught me. He trapped me under his hand and picked me up with a suffocating grip around my rib cage. I panicked and I think I scratched his arm so bad he let me go and bent down over the pain. I got back up and as soon as I was going to start running again, he aggressively stomped on my two right feet. The dream ended with me laying on the ground and the random guy reaching his hand out to me with either an angry or annoyed expression.

Dream About Orange Cat In Desert

I was in some kind of desert with a boy that I shared my first kiss.  Although it was not regular desert with a sand, it was more of a rock desert with rocks and stone, but same orange-yellow-brownish colour as the sand.  We were in a car and he was driving really fast, I was next to him.  I yelled at him to slow down because he was driving into one big rock. But be didn’t listen.  I grabbed his arm and placed my hand on back of his neck and it felt so real. Then we crashed in that big rock he was driving into and I woke up.

Dreamt I was on vacation somewhere in the desert like Arizona with a couple that’s a friend of mine. They also would become my sister and bro in law and sometimes they’d become my parents. They were telling me how I had an addiction problem to alcohol and that I needed to be sent away to rehab. What’s weird is I don’t drink in real life but in the dream I had many memories of drinking too much. This happens quite a lot in my dreams where my dreaming self has his own memories. Anyways I didn’t want to go to rehab and nobody would listen to me so I got mad and broke a tv. This made things worse and my bro in law tackled me on the floor. Then I woke up.

Dream About Alcohol Addiction Rehab

My dream starts with me being in some abandoned house with a whole bunch of drug addicts doing drugs and exchanging paraphernalia. Then my mom picks me up from there and on the ride home, I see the sky is extremely blue and there are beautiful white blossoms all over the trees and everything is just vibrant and beautiful and I step out of the vehicle to really take a look and I say this is the most beautiful day I have ever seen in my entire life. and I hear something coming from around the bend so I follow it down and there's this little town from my dreamscape, one that I've been there before and my grandma's there too. A lot of the things are made of gold and like an aquamarine color swirled together with gem stones and marble all very regal and expensive and like they said I guess they were El Dorado hills gold and there's a lot of like Spanish type themes and big rock columns, Mediterranean style too. Again there's that horseshoe shape island with the beautiful homes right there that I've seen before in my other dreams. There are parades with exotic animals and water around everywhere and I am with my grandma and we are having the time of our lives. I reach for my phone to
 capture the moment and I begin to film but I am very worried about running out of room in my phone or the footage not being captured. Then I notice the water begins to dry up and all of the bright colors begin to fade and and beautiful and exotic animals turn to basic long horn cattle that are charging at us. I run and grab for a tree branch only to be relentlessly pursued by one in particular that keeps coming back and trying to gorge me. I hang on for dear life as the stampede slows down and only the clouds of dust are left. Then I call for my grandma. But she is no where to be found. I frantically call for her and still there is no reply. As I watch the beautiful scenery turn to a dull lifeless dried out desert rather than the vibrant beautiful oasis of life and culture my heart begins to fill heavy as I realize that my grandma is dead and that she was never really there to begin with. But then I reach in my pocket for my phone and I find that there is footage of her there which gives me a feeling of hope and happiness unparalleled by anything else. I frantically try to show everyone and I slowly realize that I am in a lucid dreaming state and that I can control the scenery or the people who are there and what is going on in the dreamscape around me. I bring back the beauty and the exotic animals and vibrant colors and my grandmother and I enjoy the small hidden pocket of life and culture that I have created just for me, even if it’s only for a fleeting moment and even though I know it won’t last. I am still saddened by this but I use it as an opportunity to see my grandma anyway and hold her and love her. Then there are some typed of pages I wrote that blow around in the wind and my ex boyfriend Chuy catches one and sees his name. Unsure and embarrassed about the content I snatch the pages back from him and try to make an excuse as to why they would say his name, I think I claimed it was a list of phone numbers. I begin to go back and forth between this hidden world tucked into the hills of the Altamont pass in my dreamworld and back to the abandoned house where trouble and conflict begin to break loose. I was laying down with Chuy and I said something and some large black man began to try and attack me and punch me but Chuy quickly responded and fought the man and overpowered him. I then began to have conflict with a group of African American girls who I think were related to the man. They out numbered me but I stood tall and firm and told them that they do not want problems with me and I bluffed about having more people to back me up than I really did but it worked and they backed down. Later one through a pancake at me but it looked very delicious and I just wanted to find butter and syrup to eat it. I run into some of my cousins there and the dream somehow takes me to the dining room on my aunt and cousins at my great grandmothers house that used to be a place of stability love and comfort for me growing up. We seem to be arguing about something small but we are bringing plates of lasagna to this large table for everyone, but I begin to understand that they don’t have anywhere to live and that seems to be a theme throughout the dream- many people being homeless and relying on me to help me in some way. I feel overwhelmed and powerless to help them

While there are coherent sequences, the dream shifts abruptly between different environments and emotions, creating a fragmented narrative.

Journey Through Abandonment and Beauty

The dream oscillates between moments of joy and deep sorrow, particularly as the dreamer connects with their grandmother and later confronts the harsh reality of loss.

The dream is intense, filled with vivid moments of both beauty and danger, as the dreamer experiences a range of emotions from happiness to fear.

The dream features both fantastical elements, like the vibrant town of gold and marble, and realistic scenes of conflict and emotional turmoil.

Vivid scenes include the striking blue sky and the vibrant town, contrasted with the dullness of the desert and the chaos of the stampede.

Nina, your dream is a vivid tapestry woven with complex emotions and rich symbols, reflecting a journey through various facets of your inner world. Starting in an abandoned house with drug addicts suggests feelings of chaos or vulnerability in your current environment. This may indicate a sense of disconnect or discomfort in certain social situations, possibly feeling overwhelmed by the actions of others around you. The presence of your mother picking you up signifies a longing for protection or a return to safety, a reminder of the nurturing and secure aspects of your life.

  The transition to a vibrant, beautiful landscape with a blue sky and white blossoms represents a moment of clarity and hope. It symbolizes the potential for renewal and transformation, suggesting that despite the chaos, there is a part of you yearning for beauty and peace. This contrast between the abandoned house and the serene landscape reflects an inner conflict between feeling trapped and seeking liberation. This duality is further emphasized by your journey to a dreamscape town filled with opulence and familiar faces, particularly your grandmother. This place of gold and aquamarine hues symbolizes wealth, heritage, or values that you hold dear, perhaps a longing for familial connection and the wisdom of past generations.

  Your interaction with your grandmother, and the elation of capturing these moments, underscores a deep-seated nostalgia and the desire to reconnect with cherished memories. However, the fleeting nature of this beauty, as the water dries up and exotic animals turn mundane, captures the essence of impermanence and the inevitable loss. This could mirror real-life fears of losing meaningful connections or watching things you love fade away. Your realization of your grandmother's absence, yet finding hope in the recorded footage, speaks to the enduring impact of loved ones who've passed, and how their presence lingers through memories.

  The transition into lucid dreaming, where you regain control, highlights an inner strength and resilience, the ability to recreate beauty and joy even in fleeting moments. It suggests a powerful coping mechanism, allowing you to rewrite narratives and reclaim happiness amidst adversity. The pages caught by your ex, Chuy, and your subsequent embarrassment, introduce themes of unresolved emotions or unfinished business, possibly hinting at past relationships that still influence your psyche.

  Finally, the return to the abandoned house, with conflicts and a sense of responsibility towards others, reflects an overwhelming pressure to support those around you. The confrontation with the man and the girls may symbolize external challenges you feel unprepared for, yet your resolve to stand firm shows an inner determination. The setting at your great grandmother's house and the sense of homelessness among family members indicates a deep-rooted concern for stability and belonging, possibly mirroring a real-life situation where you feel a burden to provide support. This dream, rich with symbolism and emotion, speaks to the complex interplay of nostalgia, responsibility, and the quest for personal peace amidst external chaos.

Dream About Abandoned House And Lucidity

I had a dream that I was a part of this gameshow like thing in this huge dome shaped auditorium filled with other people there was also no stairs to the bottom just big slants/ramps leading from top to bottom if you don't make it up the ramp and to your seat on the first go without sliding back down your automatically out, we were given super random tasks to weed people out but it was weird because sometimes we would drink alcohol and things like they were just testing how we perform in all circumstances, by the end there was only 1 side left we were all on the right. I had made a friend and we stuck the whole game out together I would sit between her and a guy we had to have been there a couple weeks so everyone who kept moving on started to know each other at the very end the girl I thought was my friend tried to push me down the ramp which would've gotten me out which at this point we had completely completed the challenges so it seemed out of jealousy. I moved and sat between this older lady playing cards and the super quiet to himself guy who i had caught staring at me multiple time he was hot so I didn't mind. In the end before I woke up the instructor let us know why we were here. She said basically the world was in a secret war as she's telling us this the dome covering the auditorium is like a screen she's zoomed out to the globe and all of the red is where the people are trying to infiltrate she zooms in and the area is in somewhere like an African desert with 2 white males holding big guns are walking around looking for something the instructor explained what they are looking for and that it was important i think it was a big tree but I'm not sure as I woke up shortly after

While the dream had a loose narrative, the frequent shifts made it somewhat disjointed, especially towards the end.

Gameshow in a Dome

The dream evoked a mix of excitement and tension, especially when facing betrayal from a friend.

The intensity peaked during moments of competition and unexpected challenges, particularly the betrayal at the end.

The setting of a large dome and the structured gameshow atmosphere felt quite vivid, despite its surreal nature.

The details of the dome-shaped auditorium and the various characters were clear, making the dream feel alive.

Tiana, your dream is rich with symbolism and reflects a variety of underlying themes that may resonate with your current life experiences and emotional state. The setting of the gameshow in a dome-shaped auditorium suggests a feeling of being trapped or confined within certain expectations or social dynamics. The structure of the dome itself may symbolize protection but also limitation, representing how you might feel in your current situation—perhaps overwhelmed by external pressures or a sense of competition that you did not choose for yourself. The ramps leading down instead of stairs could indicate that you perceive your path as challenging, where progress feels precarious and easy to lose. This could be a metaphor for your own struggles with mental health as well as your feelings of anxiety, which you mentioned frequently experience.

  The tasks that participants were given, particularly those involving alcohol, suggest a willingness to test limits and cope with chaos. This could reflect your own life challenges, where you often find yourself navigating through difficult circumstances that test your resilience. The random elements of the tasks could symbolize the unpredictability of life—how sometimes, you feel at the mercy of external circumstances, much like the challenges you face due to your ADHD and depression. As you navigate these challenges, the presence of a friend in the dream signifies your need for companionship and support during tumultuous times. This connection underscores how important relationships are for you, especially in situations where you feel vulnerable.

  The betrayal from your friend in the dream, who tried to push you down the ramp, can be interpreted as a manifestation of your fears regarding trust and loyalty in relationships. This act of jealousy might represent deeper concerns about feeling abandoned or misunderstood by those you rely on for support.

Jealousy

Dream About Competition In Dome Auditorium

I'm on the bottom floor of a multi level house, inside looking up. I see workers placing what looks like a large cylindrical air duct across the second or third floor. They turn it on and air begins to flow, but then it clogs with grass and dirt and debris from outside. The workers try to get it unclogged by removing a section and pulling dirt out debris and grass out. It pulls out in large grassy clumps. I look down to my right and I'm standing on a grass lawn inside the house, the grass nearly clipped in rows. My lawn is neatly trimmed but how did all the clippings end up all the way up there? I think to myself. 

In another part of the dream I was driving a red sports car down a desert highway until it plunged into the ocean. I was not scared, I felt alive like this was the most natural thing in the world.

Dream About Air Ducts And Grass

I was at a canning food factory cleaning. Doing some water blasting. Theses guys had to remove the green seaweed from the machines. These guys did a bad job so I had to go through and help them remove what they missed. We started and canned all the veggies and loaded the trucks. They took off. And 2 of the trucks lost some of the cans and came off the road. It was all good as they were covered by insurance.

I was selling Weed. Had to buy a ounce and drop some 50s off. 

We were in space  in a space ship. These people ran out of gas so I used my ship to push then into earth's atmosphere they landed in the dessert. They were worried about getting attacked by rebels but one of there guys saved them by pulling up when they landed.

The dream had some logical flow but was fragmented with unrelated events like selling weed and space rescue.

Canning Food, Selling Weed, and Space Rescue

The dream had a mix of stress and relief, especially when the trucks lost cans and the space ship ran out of gas.

The dream felt intense, particularly during the accidents and the rescue mission.

The dream had elements of real-life activities like cleaning and selling, but also fantastical elements like space travel.

The dream was highly detailed, with clear images of the factory, the trucks, and the space ship.

Matt, your dream appears to be a fascinating exploration of various aspects of your life, laden with symbolic meanings that relate to your professional and personal circumstances. Starting with the scenario in the canning food factory, the act of cleaning and water blasting suggests a need for purification or starting anew. The seaweed, often symbolic of entanglements or things that need to be cleared away, indicates that you might be dealing with residual issues or tasks in your waking life that require your attention and thoroughness. The fact that others did a poor job and you had to step in highlights your sense of responsibility and reliability, qualities that are likely essential in your current major career changes.

  When the trucks lost cans but were covered by insurance, it could be indicative of underlying anxieties about security and risk management in your life changes. Even though there were setbacks, the insurance coverage symbolizes a safety net, suggesting that despite potential obstacles, you have a form of protection or contingency plan in place.

  The segment where you were selling weed and handling transactions could reflect a sense of dealing with illicit or frowned-upon activities, possibly representing an internal conflict or a deviation from your usual ethical standards. This part of the dream could be a manifestation of exploring parts of yourself that are unconventional or hidden from your regular persona.

  Your dream then transitions into a space-themed adventure, which often symbolizes exploration, unknown territories, and vast potential.

A desert in a dream represents a feeling of isolation, loneliness, and emptiness. It may also indicate a sense of being lost or directionless in life. Alternatively, it can symbolize a need for solitude and introspection.
