    Awesome, I always enjoy people sharing their dreams. It is a living reality. Good to see that growth came from them for you.

      Dreams are very interesting especially when you start to understand their symbolism, glad to hear from you also!

    There's something I wish to add here. There's little evidence to support the assumption that older interpretations of ideas and archetypes maintain there relevance across time. By no means do I say that crocodiles aren't thick skinned, but what I want to mention is that our minds often use whatever it has access to define an abstract message or revelation. I've seen many dreams and spoken on the topic with many people, and there seems to be a trend of substituting any given stable archetype with whatever feels suitable to the individual. However, I can't guess if this is due to the nature of the topic, the reality of dreams, of a fundamental misconception of language and rational transformation. Feel free to comment on this observation.

      Through my own life journey, I've come to understand that humans are more than just creatures of belief; we are innately compelled to seek knowledge. True understanding can only be attained by observing its tangible effects.
      Best Regards

      When one realizes that the dreams are actually using daily events to provide them with meaning, one realizes it doesn't matter what way you put your clothes on, back-to-front or inside-out. One realizes that we are being dreamed daily; that, for example, it is only Karenbosh that is actually dreaming of crocodiles.

      @@MY-tr7vc Totally agree, though I don't know whether Karenbosh does. Afterall, it's his dream. Then again, Karenbosh is having the same conversation as we are, as is his father, and his father and so on... Being infinite and eternal, I don't know where to start because I didn't and always am.

    Vampires are reaccuring in my dreams from time to time. The part about ego driven desires seem to be reflected in the symbolism of the Vampire. I am reminded of a dream where I was in a sort of mansion and by my side was a candle. The cadle had a greenish flame which was ominous. In the shadows I saw a Vampire and the candle was flickering. As soon as the candle was dimming enough the Vampire attacked me. It seems that conscious awareness is the antidote to the vampiric influences, when one can observe what is going on emotially and motively the vampire can't do anything. But that also means that it is the moment of unconsciousness where the Vampire can infiltrate.

      I find that the best protection against vampires are principles interesting about the candle, green symbolizes courage and change.. Tbh I feel that so many ppl are under "vampireism" today

      @@Expanding_Consciousness Yes, it is certainly helpful to be oriented by principles when push comes to shove. The amount of distractions that we face nowerdays probably contributes to the vampiric influence. Sadly those distractions seem to be only the beginning of what is to come. Collectively we really need to learn to utilize technology in a healthy way.

    I dream nearly every night that I’m swimming through the air. I only do breast stroke & don’t go much higher than roof tops. I lift off the ground as if to start flying but then I can only do the breast stroke. There is always baddies after me & im trying to get away. I would love to know what that means. I’m 44 & had this dream for as long as I can remember 🫶

    • @Expanding_Consciousness

      Hello, Air has long been revered as the symbol of the mind and intellect. Your dream's depiction of swimming higher signifies a profound yearning for heightened consciousness. However, the limitation of using only one swimming method suggests the need for a fresh approach. As the “baddies” in your dream I assume are men, it aligns with the archetype of the animus(your inner man), often appearing as a menacing group in women's dreams. Deep down, your animus harbors love and affection for you, yet feels disappointed by your avoidance of this aspect of yourself. All he desires is for you to listen to him. He want to help you achieve balance with your Thought(Masculine) and you Emotions(Feminine)

      ​@@mararoxa2638I used to have this dream a lot when I was a teenager, though I was never being chased, it was more a feeling of freedom and being at one with life. Now, in my forties, I dream of being on dark country roads as a passenger in the back of a car that I initially think is going forwards, only to realize that is being driven at high speed in reverse down the road which is very scary; then, of turning round to look out of the rear window to realize I'm at the metaphorical front of the car as the "virtual" driver without a steering wheel relying on the driver in the front seat using his rear view mirror to see where he is going as we take hairpin bends and blind corners. But this dream is eminently better than dreaming as an "other" self which is freaky! 😅 🌈
