I had a dream I was with my friend at the top of a tall building trying to see if I could climb this pole on top and jump down, I did, but as I did, I saw something fall from the side of the top of the building. We went down to see what it was, even down to the sewer but finding only mess and rubbish. When leaving the sewer, my friend told me that I almost died and that she could have a go instead, I said that I still had a go. I took a step up the stairs leading to the top of the building but I hesitated and considered what my friend had told me and took a step down. I sat down on the floor and said I couldn't do this anymore. My friend said that this wouldn't do and hugged me from the side, then she took off her jacket and gave it to me and I put it around myself like a blanket, then she hugged me from the back and started massaging my head, shoulders and back while singing. That's where the dream ended
Dreams often reflect our subconscious thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Your dream has several key elements that can be interpreted in various ways:
Tall Building and Climbing: The tall building may symbolize achievement, ambition, or a lofty goal you are trying to reach. Climbing represents your desire to take risks or pursue challenges. However, your hesitation before stepping up again suggests that you might be feeling overwhelmed or uncertain about taking on these challenges in your waking life.
Jumping and Falling Object: Jumping off the building can represent a leap of faith or a desire to escape from something. The falling object could symbolize unexpected consequences or fears of failure related to your decisions. It may indicate that you are aware of the risks involved in your pursuits.
Going Down to the Sewer: This part of the dream suggests a journey into the deeper, perhaps darker aspects of your emotions or experiences. Sewers can represent feelings of being trapped or encountering unpleasant truths. The mess and rubbish you found could symbolize unresolved issues or feelings of disappointment.
Your Friend’s Concern: When your friend expresses that you almost died, it points to the importance of support in your life. Your friend's encouragement for you to take a step back and their caring actions reflect the need for self-care and acknowledgment of your limits. It shows that you may be grappling with the balance between ambition and self-preservation.
The Hug and Comfort: The comfort you received from your friend, including the hug and the massage, indicates a desire for support and reassurance. This aspect of the dream emphasizes the importance of friendship, emotional support, and self-compassion. It suggests that during times of stress, you may seek or need comfort from those close to you.
The End of the Dream: Ending with your friend comforting you can be a positive resolution, highlighting the value of connection and care in facing challenges. It reflects the inner strength you can draw from relationships in difficult times.
Overall, your dream might be expressing feelings of pressure to achieve something significant, grappling with fears or uncertainties about your decisions, and the importance of relying on support from friends during tough moments. It may be a gentle reminder to take care of yourself and seek help when you need it.
