Think about what the forest represents to you personally. Are you afraid of the unknown or do you crave adventure? Consider what you are doing in the forest and how you feel about it. If you feel lost or overwhelmed, it may be a sign that you need to take a step back and reflect on your life. If you feel at peace, it may be a sign that you need to spend more time in nature or find ways to connect with your inner self.

Forest

Dream

Was with my family. A mom and two older brothers. We were driving amd there’s this gate with two girls guarding/advising visitors when passing through. When passing through there’s this forest wilderness you can either drive through or walk through. It was like a memory of the past where we all used to drive through as a family, going through rivers , hiking through mountain passes and at the end there’s this local forest community with a village at the end with some lovely people. There’s a time skip. it’s just my brothers and I. It isn’t clear but I think my mom isn’t with us anymore. We all meet up one last time , my older brother driving us near the gate entrance of that wildnerness path after the funeral service I think. I told them that it was good seeing them but I gotta move on and wanted to go back to the Forest village by myself. Saying goodbye at the gate where the two ladies were , I could tell my brothers were super worried and didn’t want me to venture out alone. While I started walking my middle brother ran after me and told me to watch out for beast eyes at night. They both started following me which was annoying and freaking me out to the point where I forgot my backpack. After bickering and traversing there , we got to the community and went inside the main kitchen building where a few people were. A brunette guy who is in his 30s , a dog , another Brazilian guy and one Asian guy. I felt reassured getting there and was banting with the guys there , preparing to live there. My brothers were there as well but I think they were going to go back to the gate with the ladies in the morning when it was safer in the day to the car.

Dream

I had a dream I was in Alabama on the way to my grandma's house in Greenville, Alabama. I'm surrounded by a bunch of trees and forest and land and acres. For some reason, there's no car, I'm in the middle of nowhere, I'm not really sure where I am exactly, and I stop at this house because I feel a sense of me being in danger and I need to go get help. And I find this girl in there and she's also looking for help as well, but we find a dead body and we're like, oh crap, we need to leave. We need to get out of here or else we will get murdered and end up getting killed. And we hear someone come through the house so we get to hiding and we get under a table and someone else gets killed and we have to be as quiet as we possibly can. The person exits the room and then we have to scramble and go, but they see us and they start chasing after us. I lose the girl, I'm on my own now, and the guy's running after me, he's a man running after me, I think he's going to kill me, I feel as if he's going to strangle me to death, so I'm running and I'm running in the middle of nowhere. Then an ocean appears and I decide I'm going to jump off the cliff into the ocean because that's the only way that I can escape.

I started in the post-apocalypse area, I believe, and I was in a house with some people who were taking care of me, but then we kept getting raided for our house, and then I met some friend, I don't remember what they looked like, I believe they had short coloured hair, and then we were attacked, and then there was this thing, like this big robot that moved, they were trying to take our house, and they took it, and I crawled into there, and I crawled into the front, and there was mu friend, and they had the controls, and they just let me turn it off, and then they kept turning it back on, and then the house fell off, and then we had to keep going, because there was a nuclear bomb, they said something to me about, I don't remember what, but I was so confused and scared, and they kept trying to tell me that I couldn't stop it, I couldn't control it, but then we went on there, and all the other people disappeared, and we went on there, and then the whole entire world exploded, and every single 8 billion people were stuck in the sea, and they drowned to death, and then we woke up in this dark red room, with these golden patterns on the wall, and it was all the people I knew from my dreams, not in real life, just from dreams, and not from other dreams, just from this specific dream, and apparently I was a Russian princess, and we got crowned, and then I was like, I don't want to stay here my whole entire life, I want to figure out what's going on, so I did, I went back to Earth somehow, I don't even understand how, because how could we go back to Earth if it was exploded, but I went back to Earth, and everything was weird, it was off, it looked old, and rusty, and I went down to the kitchen, and I opened the fridge, and there was cupcakes I remember when mum making, and I ate some, and I went to go show them to mh mum, and they weren't there, I wanted to prove something that was real, something that makes sense, but I couldn't, and I don't remember what it was, and then my other friends from the room, the dead room, came down, and we looked at the window, I saw the window, and it looked like there was crows outside, and we went closer, and the crows were fake, and they were just really realistic, and stickers stuck to the window, and they looked like somebody had put them there, and they looked a bit off, and then we went to the other side, and that's where they were stuck on, and then all the back yard felt all like, it was different to my actual house that this was based in, it was all like fences, and all the houses around it, and it was all rusty on a playground, and the fence was all rusty, and we climbed on the fence, and there was this boy, and I asked how he was alive, and he just said I decided to live, and we went to the forest to try and investigate, and there was a bunch of oak trees on both sides, and then we went down, and there was like a dirt road that went off somewhere, and there was a rusty car, because my friend had disappeared, and we went off to it, and we went there into the car, the boy got run over by something, but I could view it from the way that it came to my face, it was like this weird creepy face on this rusty old car, and when I looked down, the boy was dead, his whole face ripped off, and the thing left behind was his eyeballs stuck in his sockets, and I was freaking out, I blamed my friends, because apparently they did that to him, and they kept assuring me that we'd see him again I'm the room, and I didn't even know if we would see him again, and he was meant to be helping us, but what else could we do now, and then I woke up. It all felt really liminal.

Dream

I was in a forest in Estonia with lots of people Ive known throughout my life. Everyone had their campings. For some reason I feel the need to leave so I grab a lawn chair with a big wheel right in the middle and underneath it and I walk to a bus stop that is still inside the forest. There are other people around. I park my lawn chair and start waiting for the bus. Suddenly a black bear came from nowhere and people panicked. I started slowly leaving towards my house in the woods. I try to not run and let the screams of people freak me out. As i get deeper into the woods I notice two of my friends Im not close to anymore in real life but we all wave and i continue fast walking towards the house. On the way a baby raccoon attached itself onto me. At first its fighting me but then settles in my lap so i decide to bring it with me. Near the house a man with a knife appears and starts chasing me. I managed to open the door to the house and start locking it, before he arrives and starts aggressively trying to stab me through the open space above the old wooden door. I now notice that inside there is also an otter and a older orange cat. I feel the need to protect them and the raccoon so I manage to yank the knife from the man and stab him in his chest. We then go through the old house with my 3 pets and out into the yard where the raccoon and otter start playing and I notice another man doing gardening. He starts catcalling me so I decide to go bring the knife from the other mans chest. Then i wake up.

Dream

I dreamt about helping a little dog get somewhere safer from a location with certain flowers dogs can’t have. In the dream, I needed to bring the dog out of a situation involving a stranger who would bring the dog into unsafe locations and around people that don’t value or appreciate dogs. I first needed to bring the dog out of a large building where an unsafe man was making the dog socialize with men who don’t value dogs, and I was able to bring the dog away and to a location the dog could be safe and valued. On the way to finding a safer place, I encountered several locations that included calm nature spots with greenery and water streams, dry dirt ground where a campfire could be made and tents that could be arranged, as well as a forest path that lead to better opportunity for a safe dream conclusion where myself and the dog could count the blessings of getting far away from some unsafe guys, and somewhere that the peace of a better situation could be found.

Dream

In my dream, my eldest child, Kota, took some kind of drug they were given by their friend (it should be noted that in reality, my child hasn't ever tried drugs and doesn't drink) and ended up kidnapping several kids, ranging in ages from 2 - 7, and bringing them to my house for safe keeping. In the dream, I lived in a big house deep in the forest with my husband and my youngest daughter. In the dream, I found out what was going on because I woke up (in the dream) to a little blonde girl on the side of my bed talking to me like I was her mom. I immediately got up and held her because she was crying, and started asking questions about what was going on. She told me some girl had brought her and others here and she missed her mommy. I found Kota and got angry, yelling that kidnapping is illegal and these kids are terrified and want to go home. Kota was still high on whatever drug they were given - by thar point, the messaging seemed to be that it was a fairy who had drugged them and it was the fairy's drug that was making Kota believe these kids needed to be saved. I told Kota that they'd lost their mind and they either need to return the kids, or I'd call the police. They kept saying I don't understand. I started walking around to figure out how many kids were there (I interacted with 3). When I tried to round up everyone to get to a car so i could return them to their homes, female lions and a bear showed up outside the house and were just blocking the exit, preventing us from leaving. I woke up from the dream still trying to figure out a way to return the children.

Dream

I was in a car with someone that looked like a woman but was more of a like troll. There was a driver driving us. I was initially in the passenger seat, then I was kinda hanging out the window and nearly asked the driver to slow down before I said never mind and the moved to the backseat. Something suddenly happened and then before I knew it the troll was mad at me before I realized it was our chance to escape in the woods (we were on the highway and something happened to where we were on the side of the road suddenly). We kept whispering to try to keep track of each other and the driver was suddenly hunting us. We got deep into the woods until it started to get dark and then it seemed like the hunter would give up. I got under the covers of a blanket when I realized the hunter was near and then I tried telling the troll to do the same. Unfortunately, she wouldn’t be quiet under the blanket. The hunter stepped on me trying to get to her and the pain made me move inevitably blowing my cover. The hunter pressed something sharp into my back in my ribs area while shouting something angrily at me. The object he was holding was physically hurting me

In a seaside hotel It looks like a replica of the Broadway zone in Tokyo Disney Sea Getting across the golden bridge via walk because why not with my dad Hanging and doing acrobatics on the ledge, beyond the guardrails Getting across to the Broadway area and walking into a vintage dress shop in a brick-made building Fancy, eclectic and kinda 20-50’s in style Lots of floral lamps, fruit motifs and a later variation/diversion from of art nouveau motifs scattered around the place Curtsying the owner of the shop, a wonderful, charming middle-old aged madam after my fatehr greets her and they have a little chit chat(my father says that we’re here to get me some new shoes that goes with the dress too, that it was about time) The madam compliments and says stuff like what a charming young lady or whatever I’m sifting through and trying on lots of flowery/vintage, rich-in-fruit-motifs type dresses and pants(frilly short pantsuits and short-pant overalls too) We get a leather shoes to go with it, Mary Jane We get back to the hotel room Now a different storyline, in the same hotel room Nice room, framed little paintings on the wall I’m looking at myself in the mirror and I see my belly big and covered in spider fur(my belly looks like a pregnant spider’s) Getting unsettled Scene changes, some images of bird’s-eye panoramic shots of some chinese/Japanese misty mountains and forests that look like a few locations from my favorite historical danmei-based donghua(Mo Dao Zu Shi), and the one alleyway I took in Sanneizaka with a lot of pottery markets, galleries and a cafe that incorporates traditional teahouse’s style, red momiji trees and wooden hinoki tables, cobblestone paths and shishiodoshi And the bamboo forest iori(pavilion) I’ve seen in another dream Now I’m in a stone-made room, rose window A bit like a monastery’s rooftop room but make it more extravagant I’m on the bed, feeling woozy and like I’m on morphine Baby trapping, the spider belly thing was an actual pregnancy, and I’m carrying it Tartaglia from Genshin Impact is the ‘husband’(the baby ‘trapper’ although I doubt that he’s the one who put the spider baby in there) He’s not around, and so there’s a white, light-made silhouette of a breaten, battered child that’s staggering and cowering as they enter the room crawling, despite being beaten or kicked out every time they are spotted by Tartaglia or me(whenever I can move or have the energy to throw or use something to attack them out of reflex, fright and fear of intruders otherwise) Seems like they want to be acknowledged I don’t beat it and let it come in, staring down at it as it looks at me expectantly but hesitantly(they don’t have a face nor bodily features, it’s literally just a silhouette made of light)

The fire was so pretty and I cried because I missed my grandmother.
