I had a recurring
dream...
When I was in my
early 20's I dreamt one time that I was driving my mom's old red four door
blazer and my dad and brother were riding with me. I had to drive up a
scary and steep hill, and didn't know what was on the other side.
Later, we were driving on a tiny road with water on either side. If I
swerved the slightest, we would go into the water. I turned into a
dock-type area to fill up on gas and the vehicle went into the water. I
watched in horror as water filled the inside of the vehicle and watched my
brother and dad go under water. This was during the late daytime, early
evening.
...Later during the
same time of my life, I dreamed that I was driving my mom around in
the same car. It was pitch black at night. I drove over a big hill
and off into the water. I told my mom to wait. We waited for the car
to float to the bottom, then let it fill up with water, then opened the door and
swam out. Never had the dream again.
Dear MJ,
In your early 20's you must have been in a relationship that was
getting serious or at least had the possibility of getting more
serious. However you had some concerns; evident in the steep
hill. Going up the hill then down the other side suggests some tension
most likely sexual. The water is your feminine side - also dealing with
sexuality. The full car is you feeling overwhelmed at what you are
experiencing or contemplating in the relationship. Your Dad and brother
represent the masculine side of the relationship. Your feeling
overwhelmed is again reinforced with the drowning. Later in life, you
seem to have come to terms with the relationship and whatever the
outcome you emerged stronger and in charge of the direction you wanted
the relationship to take.
You go girl,
