🧭 Direction

Relationships

Think about the context of the dream and what was happening in your life at the time. Are you going through a major change or transition? Are you feeling stuck or confined in some way? The tunnel may be a sign that you need to keep moving forward and trust that you will come out on the other side. Alternatively, it may be a warning to be cautious and aware of potential obstacles or challenges ahead.

❤️ Feelings

The dream of a tunnel evokes a sense of curiosity and anticipation. It symbolizes a journey or transition, where one is moving from one phase of life to another. The feeling of being in a tunnel can be both exciting and slightly unsettling, as it represents the unknown and the need to navigate through darkness. It may also bring a sense of confinement or restriction, as tunnels often have limited space. Overall, this dream elicits a mix of emotions, including curiosity, anticipation, uncertainty, and a desire for exploration.

Panic
Tunnel

Dream

I needed to get to this location and the only way to get there was by using a small golf cart. The only problem was that the cart was placed inside a concrete shaft which required the person riding the cart to lie down as if in a coffin. The shaft had an equal amount of openings though placed in between all the enclosed parts. I am very claustrophobic, however I decided that since the tunnel had so many openings I could sit up and catch a breather in between the closed parts. I got in the cart placed my hands on my chest and started going however when I reached the opening I realized part of it was covered by a thick ridge on the side of the shaft and there was not enough room for me to get up. Looking ahead I saw they were all similar. I knew that probably not all of them were like that and I could get up in a few places but soon the realization hit me that I was trapped there and there was no way i was going to have any chance of getting up any time soon. I started to panic of course i could feel my heart beating out of my chest, my breaths grew more frantic with every second. I remember thinking that in my life i have experienced panic attacks before but i could sit in a fetal position and hug myself tight and drink water but now i couldn’t even sit up. Using all the adrenaline induced force i could muster i stopped the cart with my legs and started pushing myself back towards the entrance. Finally after painstakingly pushing myself back the way i came now getting back out of the tunnel would be the new problem. It was very tight and i was already shaking alot. First i pushed my torso and then my legs were the most difficult to get out. When i got out i remember there was a crowd of onlookers which included some people in my family like my sister. They booed me for not being brave enough to reach the other end. The tunnels were made of dark grey concrete and mimicked a brutalist style. They looked bleak and cold. A reflection of the dark places in my mind. After being booed, i tried to get back in the tunnel a couple of ways I tried walking forward alongside it and trying to fit in some of the gaps but it was no use. Eventually i gave up and accepted that i was not reaching the other side through this tunnel.

Dream

In my backyard a gathering. Inside a bouncy house but the bottom wasn’t there it was just the grass and there were tables. But the netting and colorful fun bouncy walls were there but no opening to go in or out. Two of my cousins who passed away were there. They told me I had to break up with my boyfriend and that the Lord said so. They looked sad. I asked if they were sure and sadly they nodded. When I asked why the Lord would say that he just said “ummm” and had answer. All of a sudden this metal tunnel that was pitch black inside started to suck everyone in. The tunnel was positioned straight to the ground so we would go under. The wind from it was so loud and I was trying my best to hold on and I asked my cousin if the reasoning that God wanted me to break up with my boyfriend was because of the November thing where I saw on tik tok a tarot reading video that mentioned getting rid of a situationship and a great new relationship with someone would be coming up in November. My cousin acted like he just remembered it and nodded and then I couldn’t hold on any longer was sucked in.

Tunnel
Stairs

Dream

I was with a dream version of my dad and my two siblings. We were in this suv or truck and we drove to this building in the city. We went inside and went down this hallways. Down a tunnel in a ground to this small room with a tv and a table. A small barred window at the top. From outside the window would be on the ground. The walls were empty and kinda worn down. There were these stairs in the back right side of the room leading down and there was water at the bottom. Once we went down the stairs it opened up to this giant room that had a giant pool in the middle of it and it broke off into a bunch of dark hallways surrounding the pool. These people kept appearing but they weren’t natural. Something was wrong with them. My family is no longer with me. I’m pretty sure they were killed. I kept running from the creatures. At one point I was being chased with some kind of chainsaw and got backed into a corner. Everytime I got close to dying I would tell myself it’s a dream and to wake up. Everytime I woke up and fell back asleep I would be back in the same dream and it would continue. At one point I was outside in the city but it was different. It’s like I walked into a different world. I was still being chased and I was trying to get away. Somehow I ended up back at the pool and Someone walked into the pool and black goo started leaking out around them and turning the water black

Dream

I stated my dream as a cartoon. There were three girls on the ground. Three or two boys came riding two horses. They picked the long hair l, girly girls and kissed like in barbie movies and went with them. When they were leaving one boy was trying to pay attention to the other girls but didn't have the chance. Then I saw live people. They were going in a tunnel. One boy was expressing feelings to a girl, short hair one, with a mouth piercing and was wearing like a tomboy not long frocks like other girls in the cartoon. They were doing some adventures. Then the dream shifted to me. I don't remember who were the other people with me. We had two servants kind of people. When we sing the songs of hindi dramas which were dubbed to singala, my mother tongue, they turn into donkeys/ horses. We were escaping from opponents and were trying to escape. We could in the first cave. Then we came near an old home. I was with teo boys. There when we were going one of us was trapped under the floor. Other one was trying to help, they couldn't. Then I told them it's not hard to come out as they think and told them how to do it. Then he could come out of the pit. We heard some one was coming and we rushed out of there. I sang the song and get on the donkey/ horse. I was coming home and people who came out were chasing me. Suddenly I felt the animal I was on was becoming small and it disappeared. Still I could hide and I was finding safer routes avoiding them. Then, I found two men on a car. They helped me to fleed and reach our home.( it was not my home though, unfamiliar building) I was asked to pay them for the ride and when my father tried to pay from online banking, his mobile phone company sent a messsaying he has to pay 2075/= as the phone bill. It was mentioned to pay him the bill before doing another payment. My father gave them purple color wigs as their payments as 500 rupeefor one. They had around another 2500-3500 with them. I saw they were calculationg money and they went to a night club to enjoy. I knew that the wigs my father gave were not authentic. I was looking at the night club from the second floor of a near building and when I saw them dragged out from the club because they couldn't pay, I immediately go there say sorry for them and pay them money. Our country 500 note is purple and i saw they had green color wigs representing 1000 green notes ;) then I woke up.

Tunnel
Airport
Mermaid

Dream

In this dream I am a male I am an anomaly, some kind of a merfolk-immortal hybrid and I need to die apparently Or people think I need to So I run away, across cities and ports and all sorts of locations, hiding my identity First I’m jn the Pacific ocean Then I am somehow swimming by the Isle of Scots; I see fogs, trees, jagged steep cliffs of limestones and everything Then I get to the Great Britain, have an escapade across London and get to the Iberian peninsula by swimming and everything I have the ability to sling threads across and swing on it like Spider-man I’m then climbing across old cathedrals, in Paris I’m caught but then there’s skyscrapers like the ones in Singapore and then suddenly I’m in Spain again, I’m taken to the airport with other prisoners to be transported but we trick the guards and the warden into thinking we’re following And then we scatter in different directions I for one am chased through tunnels cutting through a small hill in the city, through the cathedral’s steeples and around the glass futuristic skyscrapers built like a Klein bottle There’s vegetations everywhere and the city itself is build amidst the forests and stuff so that makes sense And then by and IN the sea I am taught the truth of my origins A lot of stuff happens and now I’m back on land, disguising myself as human again I’m in this school made from a villa by the sea of Andalusia There’s scarcely any women I’m hiding in the shared shower space because it’s like the only place aside from the ocean where they have proper water supply and I need water to not dry out and die One of the males I’m infatuated with and every time I’m in some sort of a heat he comes to me and fucks my guts(literally, I take out just my gut somehow and feel him Bluetooth-fuck it) I’d suck his cock and make love and stuff but homosexuality is apparently forbidden in this school/place His girlfriend finds this out and joins in(I’m still the bottom, she’s getting eaten out by me while the guy pistons me from the hind) It’s a quickie so before long the school’s warden and stuff comes in and I have to run I climb the veneer boards and patched high walls of the room and make it outside as the police comes in to track me down I can hear the wardens’ voices in my head so I know what they’re trying to do or where they’re at(telepathy?) I use the web-slinging and my atheticism to get across the villa and back to the ocean I sling across the villa’s terracotta walls and vine balconies and for some fucking reason I appear female to the onlookers so people think I’m some sort of a fairy-maniac they’re hallucinating Finally I’m on the ground so I grovel and crawl through the parking lot made of pebbles and the shoreline’s rocks gathering unscathed pretty seashells(mostly clams, mussels, scallops, respective colors gradient of red-orange-pink or green-blue-purple, purple, terra-cotta orange and pink) Thw warden’s car comes in so I run and dive into the ocean
