All through last night and this morning I have had a recurring dream whereby upon my awakening, there would be conditions to my waking state. This happened at least four times that I remember vividly. It was strange because upon waking up I could not think of anything I had to remember that held such importance in the dream

The dream had a moderately coherent structure with recurring themes but lacked a clear storyline.

Recurring Conditional Awakening

The dream carried a sense of confusion and mild anxiety due to the conditions upon awakening.

The intensity was moderate, with recurring elements adding to the overall impact.

The dream felt quite realistic, especially the sensation of waking up.

The dream was quite vivid, with clear details of the awakening conditions.

Emma, let's delve into your recurring dream. The repetition of the dream itself is significant, as recurring dreams often signal unresolved issues or emotions that your subconscious mind is trying to process. The fact that you experienced this dream multiple times in one night and morning indicates a pressing matter in your waking life that demands attention. 

  In your dream, upon awakening, there are conditions attached to your waking state. This suggests that you might feel certain pressures or expectations in your daily life, possibly related to your responsibilities or the transitions you are experiencing. The conditions in your dream could be metaphorical for the conditions you feel you must meet in reality, perhaps linked to your financial stress or recent relocations.

  The strangeness you felt upon waking up, unable to recall anything of importance from the dream, may reflect a sense of disorientation or confusion in your waking life. You might be dealing with the aftermath of traumatic experiences or health issues, which can often make one feel unmoored or uncertain about their direction.

  Additionally, your dream's insistence on conditions to your waking state could be connected to your feelings of sadness and occasional joy. Your mind might be grappling with the dichotomy of experiencing fleeting moments of happiness amidst a backdrop of frequent sorrow. This internal struggle could manifest as conditions in your dream, symbolizing the hurdles you feel you must overcome to attain peace or satisfaction.

I have a recurring dream where I am
In an elevator going up and when it reaches the top I know it’s going to start shaking and then move sideways. I never get in or out of the elevator I am just inside

The dream is somewhat coherent, the events in the dream follow a logical sequence.

The Elevator

The dream has a slightly negative emotional tone, there is some fear of the unknown and a sense of being trapped.

The dream is fairly intense, the dreamer feels a sense of fear and anticipation as the elevator is about to start shaking and moving sideways.

The dream is somewhat realistic, elevators do exist and can move sideways, however, it is unlikely that an elevator would shake before moving sideways.

The dream is quite vivid, the dreamer can clearly see and feel the elevator moving.

Daniel,

	Your recurring dream of being in an elevator that shakes and moves sideways at the top likely symbolizes feelings of anxiety and uncertainty in your life. 
    The elevator represents your journey through life, and the shaking and sideways movement suggests that you may be feeling unstable or out of control. 
    The fact that you never get in or out of the elevator indicates that you may be feeling trapped in a situation or unable to move forward. 
    Additionally, the intensity of your emotions (level 8) and the fact that you had negative feelings during the dream further support the notion that this dream is a reflection of significant emotional distress.

	Here's how this dream connects to your previous dreams:

	Your previous dreams of packing a suitcase and being in a hotel but unable to find your room also suggest feelings of being lost, confused, and unable to move forward. 
    These dreams, taken together, paint a picture of someone who is feeling stuck and uncertain about their life path.

	My recommendation:

	Given the intensity and recurring nature of these dreams, it may be helpful for you to consider seeking support from a therapist. 
    A therapist can help you explore the underlying causes of your anxiety and develop coping mechanisms to manage these feelings. 
    They can also provide guidance and support as you navigate the challenges and transitions in your life.

I had a recurring dream that I would climb into a treehouse in the woods and find a fox in a box.

The dream was somewhat coherent, as it had a clear beginning, middle, and end. However, the fact that the fox was found in a box in a treehouse added a touch of disjointedness.

Dream about a Fox in a Treehouse

The dream had a positive emotional tone, as the dreamer felt happy and excited to find the cute fox in the treehouse.

The dream was moderately intense, as the dreamer felt a strong sense of excitement and curiosity upon finding the fox.

The dream was somewhat realistic, as it took place in a familiar setting (the woods near the dreamer's house) and involved a common animal (a fox). However, the fact that the fox was found in a box in a treehouse added a touch of surrealism.

The dream was quite vivid, as the dreamer could clearly see and interact with the fox.


Abby,

	Your dream of climbing into a treehouse in the woods and finding a fox in a box carries several potential interpretations. 

	The treehouse, often associated with childhood and a sense of security, could symbolize your longing for a simpler time or a desire to escape from the complexities of adult life. The fact that it is located in the woods suggests a connection to nature and a need for grounding. 

	The fox, a creature known for its cunning and adaptability, could represent a part of yourself that is resourceful and intuitive. Finding it in a box may indicate that you have been suppressing or neglecting these qualities. Alternatively, the fox could symbolize someone in your life who possesses these traits and with whom you feel a connection.

	
Overall, this dream seems to suggest that you are seeking a balance between your desire for security and your need for adventure and self-expression. The fox may be a guide, encouraging you to embrace your inner wisdom and find creative ways to navigate life's challenges. It might be helpful to explore activities that allow you to connect with nature and tap into your intuition.

Hi Courtney,

	Your recurring dream about trying to speak but failing, accompanied by speaking during sleep and sleep paralysis, suggests underlying emotional struggles. The intensity of your dream, indicated by the high emotions level and negative feelings, warrants attention.

	The dream may symbolize feelings of being unheard or unable to express yourself effectively. The inability to speak could represent a sense of powerlessness or frustration in your waking life. The effort you put into speaking in the dream, even speaking aloud, reflects your desire to be heard and understood. The subsequent sleep paralysis could symbolize a feeling of being trapped or unable to move forward.

	It's important to consider if there are situations in your life where you feel unable to express yourself or assert your needs. Exploring these areas with a therapist could help you develop coping mechanisms and improve your ability to communicate and advocate for yourself. Remember, you are worthy of being heard and understood.

Dream About Trying To Talk But Cant

Recurring dream that I can't graduate from my lyceum (it's like high school). I dream it at least once a month. In these dreams I either had been away for some time or had failed to finish some assignments. All my teachers want me to finally graduate. Sometimes my classmates cannot graduate too, and some of us are stuck there together. Sometimes my classmates move forward, but are still at the lyceum too, but I'm far behind them. My math and biology teachers appear in almost every dream where I fail to graduate. 
In these dreams I understand that I was supposed to graduate years ago, and that I'm years late, and that I'm  stuck.
