From Hunter to Prey

I am with a group of mixed gender youth. I become the angry pursuer intent on harm. Then my emotions morph into one who. Wants to protect the intended victim. I am now the frightened venerable one. But the instant I become aware of my plight I am empowered with the strength, speed and power of an accomplished dodger. The change is visceral and instant. 

Notes: I reviewed this dream many times before fully awakening. The initial dream was very brief and almost  nothing but emotion. 

The Love of My Life

What does this mean? 

"The Love of My Life"

1. The true love one that got away or is still my gal. 

2. The Love right now in my life. 

Board Feet

I am in a large enclosed space with other men performing a task or working on a large project, like a railroad..

I have Just discovered and am trying out a physical manipulation that intrigued me. There is a platform or wall made of wooden boards, similar is dimension to 2x4's. I have found out they fit on my feed and I can move them perfectly to fit like the final pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. I go back and forth lifting my feet with boards attached and placing them exactly where they got over and over. I am doing this before I fully wake to remember the process. I wake satisfied I remembered but am clueless. 

Notes: It was another case of mechanical dream logic. I work something out in a dream but upon waking it makes no sense or is no even possible.

What does the dream want? For me to complete a repetitive task? Use my feet to solve a problem?

The Woodworkers Assistant (Uninterpreted)

I am working in a shop that does custom woodworking. I'm an assistant to the primary woodworker. We are talking to a couple about a custom job. We are primarily discussing it with the husband. We come to an agreement and start the work.

It is complicated and has multiple repetitive pieces. The majority of the specialized pieces look similar to small Japanese hand fans. I asked my boss if he needs help with some of the repetitive work. We seem to agree but I'm not doing any of the actual work. The customer comes in to check on the progress and it is taking longer than expected. He asked for an additional small change that my boss agrees to but he also charges more. The man asks to get a break on the price because it was already expensive. The boss says no, very definitive but neutral. I comment to the man that he can be challenging to work for as well.

There are additional periods in the dream where I am checking on the status of the order. Is now taking much longer than expected. There's another discussion with the customer where my boss says there will be no extra charge because I quoted a fixed price. You further explains that's why it's why he's not flexible on pricing up front because things always come up. There's a general feeling of confidence on all parties.

They're at least two or three cycles of checking on the status and I wake before the project is done It generally feeling good.

Notes: Just got fired from MLA. 

The Spinning House Dislodges the Bees (Help?)

I am in my house on a beautiful sunny day. I see neighbors returning from a walk out back. Suddenly the entire house starts spinning on its axis but not too violently. There are other family members in the house and I explain to them that Cindy occasionally used this technique to clean the house. In fact the house usually settled back down with little or no damage. I comment that there is some damage being done, but it is very minor, like a tree limb being broken outside.

Suddenly a lot of dry leaves and other natural debris is shaken loose from under the fireplace mantle piece. All of the interior wall space is lined with bees. They immediately start to swarm all over the inside of the house. 

The situation does not seem fire, just a practical emergency. I run to our upstairs bedroom where relatively few beers have made and get I to the room and close the door. Another family member seems to have followed my leaf.

I wake physically alarmed, but not particularly upset. I try to reenter the dream for clarity. All my thoughts are very practical, like weather to use a big bomb or a shopvac. 

Notes: This dream was very  bright and vivid.

What does the dream want? I have no idea.

Visiting the Rural Poor

I am visiting some people out in the country that I have never met. I am in a very modest house, basically a shack, and I'm looking out the windows through some curtains at some others coming in. We kind of look back and forth at each other but can't really get a good look. When they come in we say hello and some comment is made about the back and forth.

I'm talking to a couple and the man is helping the woman through a doorway. Both of her legs have severe issues. They are skinny and bent and she shouldn't actually be able to walk. Power reflect on the condition of my leg which is incredibly minor compared to her condition. Whereas before I was feeling sorry for myself.

Someone asks for a donation and is passing around a jar with money in it. I see they're all $1 bills and take some cash out of my pocket and are picking out the $1 bills to put in the jar. The guy next to me sees a $10 and pulls that out. There may be an issue later with other people also asking for money.

One of the guys there says he's playing at a festival and then I should come back and see him play. I said that sounds great when is it. He says he's playing at 4:00 in the morning. I think and possibly, there's no way I can do that and go to work.

There is a brief scene in a later segment that gets graphically sexual. It only lasts a moment. Even in the dream it seems out of context.
