Recurrent dreams about being lost?

Question

not the same dream...

over the past week I've had several very different dreams, with the same theme.

-

being on an underground train ending up in Africa.

being in some strange contraption in the ocean between continents (????)

being on an elevator type thing that spanned what seemed to be a whole city.... started at the mall ended up somewhere entirely different....

walking through wal mart and ending up in a high end clothing store, going outside and asking which way to get back to wal mart and no one knows what I am talking about

any thoughts?

Answer 1

It appears you are at a crossroads and are uncomfortable with some direction you could take in life.

For example, if someone in your family is going for a new job that pays more or less than a former job, that new job is causing confusion as to your identity as far as economic class.

It could be that you are considering moving from a certain kind of neighborhood to another or even that a relative of yours has done this and it is causing you to question your identity.

Africa and Wal-Mart represent being poor and having not many possessions whereas being between continents and spanning a whole city represent being in the middle and not knowing where you'll end up. The mall and high-end clothing store represent being well off.

It really appears that something has occurred to rock your boat at this point in your life. You may be uncertain as to where you fit in. Maybe throughout your life you have lived in various economic conditions and so your current or upcoming economic status is unfamiliar to you.

I had a friend who lived in China with seven siblings in a one room hut. He has a PhD in computing from a top university. He lives an upper middle class lifestyle. This is a dream I'd expect him to have.

What are you trying to hide?
