They Were Going To Hurt Us (needs work)

Scene 1. I am with a group of 10ish people we are in a room that is adjacent to another room where a group of people are in a conference (about the same number) We are a related subgroup. The are the higher ups. We may be waiting for word from them or provide some sort of import, I am unsure.

Scene 2.I am back in this room at another meeting, or later in the same meeting. A team of police or some other authorities come into out meeting space. They threaten us in some manner and leave.

Scene 3. We are again in the same room, there are two adjoining rooms. One is the conference room the other is an entry space, there may be glass/a window in thew wall. It connects to our room through a open section, there is no door. The authorities come in again and threaten us in some way. Now we all have handguns in our pockets. I have one, but I am very unfamiliar with it. I pull it out and try and shoot one of the authorities. The trigger is very hard to pull and my hand is unsteady. It may be because I am old and weak. It takes several seconds, but the official does not react and I shoot and kill him. All of the other authorities have been dispatched in the same way. We feel we have done the right thing and protected the people in the conference room. They are unaware of what we have done. We line all the bodies up in a neat line in the entrance room against the room with the window. We leave.

Scene 4. I have the gun in my pocket. I am trying to avoid the authorities that are searching for us. I am looking for a place to get rid of the gun where it will not be discovered. I try behind a very well maintained bush, in a shallow stream, nothing is working, I am panicking. I see on the authorities coming toward me and I toss the gun behind a row of bushes against a short wall. It is obviously a very poor location. I think I did not even wipe my prints. I wake up.

Flashes: I had flashes of an object several times while going back and forth. Sometimes it was an object from the dream, at one point it was a stainless steel bowl (very similar to one of our mixing bowls) that was flashing really brightly, perhaps light or sparks were coming out of or into the bowl.

Notes: I woke up to an alarm at 8:20 am. I went immediately back to sleep and didn't wake until after noon. I was going back and forth into the dream several times. I also had a very clear small vision (like a gif) of eating apple raisin salad. I recently made some. I imagined eating it in very vivid multi-sensual detail. I could taste it and feel the cold smoothness in my mouth. I thought it may be an entry into a WILD. I should thy this again in the future. [DH]

What is the dream trying to tell me? I have very little insight. It has the recurring themes of business, organizations, authority, violence, shame, fear.

What am I going to do abut it? Look at other dreams, try and figure something out.
