Help interpret my Dreams, Please!

Question

I have always had VERY, VERY lucid dreams. One of them I had every night for years as a child (I am 20 now) but it still freaks me out. I was in the car with my Mom, two of my sister's were in the back and I was in the front passenger seat. My mom had to run into the grocery store so she left the car running so we could listen to the radio. She walks into the store and a garage door opens. I look inside the garage/market and she is being put through a meat grinder by two employees. One of them runs out and gets into the driver seat and starts to drive away with us in the car. I bend over and the seatbelt starts to strangle me and I wake up.

Is there any significance to this dream? I have never forgotten it and it's been at least fourteen years since I have had it. Also, very rarely (it's happened maybe six times my entire life) I will look at a stranger and I get the EXACT same feeling I got in my dream when I was being strangled. I feel that when I get that feeling, it means they have a bad aura and not to approach them.

I don't want to sound really weird because I don't much believe in psychic abilities but does anyone think could this be any sort of warning I get when there is a bad person around?

The last time I got it - I was in a store with my Mom and a man looked over at me and I literally started to choke and felt that same suffocating feeling. I want to approach these people and test the waters, so to speak, but I don't want any harm done to me.

Answer 1

It could be. It might just be your instincts subconsciously telling you that this is not a good person. The person(s) in your dreams is probably an embodiment of your fear of the potential evil in people.  

Answer 2

First, such dreams are not called lucid.

Lucid dreams are dreams where you are aware that you are in dream world.

you had a scary dream, i guess it was result of some real incident in your life (probably when you were very small) that you don't remember now but the memory of that is still somewhere hidden in your brain.

Whenever, a situation with a reflection of that old incident occurs in your life, then your hidden memory (about that old incident) is flashed by your sub-conscious mind. Your body will then react in the same way that it did earlier, but you wont know why.

If its giving u a lot of trouble then i suggest u to visit a hypnotist and try to remember the first incident.

In most cases, time heals such things.

To dream that you are driving in a car, denotes your ambition, your drive and your ability to navigate from one stage of your life to another. Consider how smooth or rough the car ride is. Whether you are driving the car or a passenger, is indicative of your active role or passive role in your life. If you are in the backseat of the car, then it indicates that you are putting yourself down and are allowing others to take over. This may be a result of low self-esteem or low self-confidence. Overall, this dream symbol is an indication of your dependence and degree of control you have on your life. To see a parked car in your dream, suggests that you need to turn your efforts and energies elsewhere. You may be needlessly spending your energy in a fruitless endeavour. Alternatively, a parked car my symbolize your need to stop and enjoy life. To dream that you are almost hit by a car, suggests that your lifestyle, beliefs or goals may be in conflict with another's. It may also be symbolic of a jolting experience or injured pride. *Please see Also Automobile.

To dream that you are listening to the radio, symbolizes your awareness and intuition toward a particular situation. What you hear through the radio also represents messages from your unconscious. It is possible that it is some for of ESP or telepathic communication. To dream that a radio is turned off, indicates that you have the ability to help or assist in some situation, but you are refusing to do so.

To see your sister in your dream, symbolizes some aspect of your relationship with her, whether it one of sibling rivalry, caring, protectiveness, etc. Your sister may draw attention to your family role and sense of belonging. It may also serve to remind you that someone in your waking life has characteristics similar to your sister. Alternatively, your sister may be a metaphor and actually refer to a nun. In this case, she may represent spiritual issues. If you do not have a sister and dream that you have one, then it signifies some qualities that you need to activate or acknowledge within your own self. Pay attention to the actions and behaviour of your dream sister.
