Inviting people to post dreams, especially personal dreams, where you are looking for help with interpretation. Note: If yours is a transpersonal dream, i.e., about the world rather than just about you personally, post it in Random Predictions thread under Timeline Predictions.
I had a dream last night that I believe is personally precognitive. I dreamt that there were hornets of different sizes, some large, buzzing around me. Then, one stung my ankle and I could feel the sting in my dream. Next, in my peripheral vision, I could see a car ram into the right side of my car, slightly behind the door as in the back quarter panel. I didn’t feel the impact, but it hit.
My interpretation is that the hornets are irritating issues I am currently dealing with but the car means that something is going to "blindside" me. I usually have tornado dreams if something really bad is going to happen but I think this message was meant to be a specific warning of an unanticipated and very unpleasant surprise. I have been dreading some upcoming family conundrums and now this dream adds to my dread.
I am not really asking for anything but I don't have anyone in my life right now that is interested in dream interpretation so I just needed to discharge some anxiety and of course, if anyone has a hunch, I welcome it.
Thank you
@raincloud I’m no dream expert but if you live in North America or continental Europe, the right side of the car is the passenger side. Driver on the left. So not only are you blindsided (back panel), but you’re also not in control. I’m sorry, hope I’m wrong.
@raincloud @2ndfdl's observation is truly amazing. I will take it further, thanks to 2ndfdl's cleverness. In North America, the right side of the car is where other cars can pass you in the road. So someone is going to attempt to pass you and "hit" you on the way. He's got that plan already. Knowing this is coming, you can take action now to prevent it. I know that you can do it. Get in the passing lane and block him by passing someone else so he has nowhere to go.
@jeanne-mayell In America, cars pass on the left. It is against the law to pass on the right.
I have a lot of meaningful dreams and I would love help figuring out one that happened right as was waking up. I had woken up at 3 to write down a dream I'd had - didnt fall back asleep for an hr bc I was ruminating on an email I had to write to my daughters family therapist about my decision not to rejoin family therapy with my ex (I sought a restraining order in sept and life has been great since). I care a lot about my kids and have protected them and I will continue to do so but my gut says do not go back to family therapy.
I was seeking help in my dream on healing from my past and I asked my spirit guide for guidance- he introduced me to a student of mine's mom and she was in Harlem where my ex an I used to live. I think she had gone through this and I think her advice was "heal it all, hold no anger, let it go." (I've always seen my experience as an opportunity to learn my value and I am not bitter or angry towards my ex but I do have some emotions towards my mom who didn't support me leaving) So then I was in the car with my mom (road trip) and I wanted to stop and pick up a quilt I was having work finished on. I drove in and the shop was a really small tiny house with the sign Jane Roberts (seth material), Jane seemed to be deaf or mute and her mom helped her with customers. I went inside and she had 3 items for me (but I was expecting just the quilt). One of the items was a quilted coat, and the arms weren't sewn on or quilted yet. She had me go in her tiny attached bedroom to try it on for a fitting and it was full of pins. I had to take all the pins out first. Some were to hold the arms in place but there were like 4 pins in rows together in various places in the body of the coat.
Then my alarm went off interrupting the dream. I have studied the seth material in the past but havent read it in a while. I appreciate any thoughts from the community.
@elaineg Oh you are right, of course and that is an excellent observation that makes her dream even more rich.Although it is illegal to pass on the right, in @raincloud's dream, that is exactly what this rogue person did. He passed on the right, snuck up where she didn't see him. Also she was likely in the fast lane, ahead of him, and blocking him so he began to pass on the right.
@raincloud This may be truly totally unrelated to your dream though am posting in case it makes any sense. A bit ago I lay down for a nap and before going to sleep read your dream and the sequence of replies twice. Then closed my eyes and began to drift off. Then came a "hypnagogic hallucination" (see Oliver Sack's little book Hallucinations). I have these sometimes, not unusual. A "closed eye" moving image as if my eyelids were a screen. Hazy images moved across this screen and then one very clear one: a vehicle license plate. Black with yellow letters. Before going to sleep I noted that the plate had a couple of letters (maybe EL) and then some numbers. Upon awakening I googled license plates of the American states and see that Delaware has black with yellow letters only Delaware only has numbers. California in the 1960's had black plates with yellow letters and one can now pay extra and get a "legacy" plate in California - yellow on black background.

@jaidy I have used ChatGPT as an adjunct for my own dream work with a 37 year, 66,000 word Word document of dreams. (I was going to throw all my dream journals away but my husband said no, transcribe them. So I did.)
I have asked ChatGPT for insight/interpretation into a selection of my dreams "according to the theories of Carl Jung" and the results have been interesting. First I tried asking "interpret these dreams" and got back recitation of contents of dream dictionaries. The analysis improved with a theoretical orientation. The dreamer is always, in my view, the authority on her dreams. And I have come to think of dreams as holograms - and so all dreamers have a living library of holograms that bring wisdom of various kinds. AI is just an extra. Mostly I "dialogue" with my dream images either via art or writing.
Your quilted coat seemed an important image. With your permission I'll enter the part of your dream about the coat into a ChatGpt query - summarizing in my words - and post the results?
@marigold I see dreams the same way! holograms, so interesting to find someone who shares that view. I am usually able to mostly process my dreams but bc I woke up from the alarm (which is rare) I was out of it and I think I needed another 5 minutes to complete it.
I generally google anything I don't understand but I felt like the context of Jane Roberts was difficult... especially her being mute. Anyway I appreciate your offer, I am curious to see the results.
@jaidy. So glad to hear your view on dreams as holograms!
I queried just the quilted coat part as it seemed to stand out. These results may seem obvious to you. Also the definition of the anima may not be quite right. I felt drawn to the seamstress - engaged in handmade creation and transformation
It is very easy to use the free Chat GPT. You have to remember it has limited though growing material it uses and your queries become part of the ChatGPT data base.
-------------------------
@marigold wow, I really appreciate you doing this and the tip for next time.
i think for me the pins may be more like removing hurts or something. I knew they were holding the sleeves on but the ones I was removing we’re separate- they were multiples in a row- not functional… like thorns in the soft fabric. So I could heal…
Interesting that you say I can head it off. It took decades for me to realize that if I paid attention to the context of the scary tornado dreams, I could head off the negative outcome. In this dream, I didn't get a context, but you did!! Thank you.
Yes, there is someone who plans a hit, I have no doubt and I know who it is. Thwarting it will take creativity and intuition. Thank you for your recommendation and encouragement.
@jaidy My impression of your dream is that it's about your relationship with your mother (who you say you have somewhat negative emotions toward), you are trying to get a cozy, homey, security feeling fixed. A noted psychic authority lets her mother act in her stead to show you to unpin your arms. Let down your arms. Declare peace with your mother. "heal it all, hold no anger, let it go."
It's a beautiful dream and good advice you gave yourself!
I am looking out of the window of a tall building and in the distance, I see a dormant volcano that suddenly erupts. I can feel the volcano’s anger as it spews orange fire high into the air. In the foreground, there is a mighty tree that could easily be hundreds or thousands of years old. The tree starts to topple over exposing its large thick, extensive roots. Mangled within those roots are people (much like the people in the painting in the movie The Devil’s Advocate) trapped and unable to break free. The roots start to spread out and consume its prey. The angry volcano devours the tree and the people it seeks out only. Everyone else is safe and fine.
The tree reminded me somewhat of the one in the Garden of Eden, you were supposed to admire its beauty from afar, but not let it draw you into it.
I just wanted to share.
@susan-daisy I don't know if you're looking for an interpretation, but it feels to me like the tree is the long established structure of corruption, and the volcano is the literal earth-changing movement of people and groups that have now been awakened to the danger of the tree and its continued growth. The tree and it's support systems are uprooted, consumed, and destroyed by the volcano, while everything else is untouched.
If that is indeed a resonant interpretation, it would seem to me to be a positive thing.
