I’m a dreamer, literally.
I have always had very vivid dreams. I get a kick out of
telling people what I dreamt about “last night” considering how entertainingly
random my subconscious is.
I also have the occasionally predictive dream. Usually these
types of dreams have to do with something bad that will happen to me. I have
multiple stories where I’ve had some crazy dream that seems impossible given
the current situation but then it happens in real life!
I’m really not sure if they are “psychic” dreams or if I’m
acting self-destructive because I had these dreams. Who knows?
What I know for sure is that dreams indicate the stresses
I’m going through when I’m awake.
Just a few days ago I had a dream that a scorpion stung
me.
So I was in a bathroom getting ready to give a friend a ride
to school. I looked down and a small scorpion and a weird see-through crab where on
the floor. I killed the little crab and thought that I got the scorpion too but
it was still alive a stung me on the arm.
The wound grew quickly and turned black.
Then I appeared in an E.R. waiting room. You know how in
dream you just randomly change scenes?
In the hospital I’m laying in bed and waiting for the nurse
to bring me anti-venom. Then I get a text message from a guy who is mountain
climbing… don’t as me why.
I woke up that morning and couldn’t stop thinking about this
awkward dream so I did what anyone in my generation would do, I googled it.
This is what came up:
“To dream of a crab represents stubborn and determined aspects of your personality. You may possibly be too reliant on others and refuse to let go of a fruitless venture or dream. Crabs may also imply that you are feeling aggravated and frustrated.”
“To dream of a hospital implies a need to be taken care of physically and/or mentally. It indicates a need to restore order in your life”
“To dream that you have come into contact with venom, perhaps through a snakebite, is an indication that you are currently bottling up emotion such as anger and disappointment. You are beginning to despise those around you and are no longer able to contain it. It may also represent the poor way in which you view yourself.”
“To dream that you are in the bathroom signifies your basic needs and desires. It's possible that you are feeling overwhelmed and you wish to get rid of these issues. It may also symbolize your need to cleanse your spirit and mind of destructive thoughts. You need to release negative emotions and feelings.”
Do you see the common theme? Before I went to bed that night I had a very stressful evening. I think it is so strange how my brain went through the days events when I’m not even consciously thinking about all the things that frustrated me.
