I was looking for something in my moms garage and heard her yelling and cussing me when I turned around we were inside her house but it was one big open floor plan with rooms sectioned off. She started showing me something I had done and was griping at me and I told her that I didn't do it. She looked at me to see if I was being honest which I wasn't known to lie and when I did I didn't hide it well. She starts showing me all these slices of cakes she had on the floor to take pictures with her puppies. I sat for a minute but explained that I was in brandons car and was suppose to just go to walmart so I needed to go I turn around to walk away then my sister emerald and a random guy appear in my old bed room. I sweep some dirt from the floor and couch. We talked for a minute. Then emerald says something to the guy that I can't remember as they're walking outside. They get bum rushed by 4-5 secret agent looking individuals and they have the guy pinned down with their weapons drawn. I rushed over and touched one of the agents arms and tell them that's unnecessary. He backs me up until I am standing in my moms door way, at this point my mom and her husband are siting on the couch watching tv which positioned them with their backs to the door kind of. The agent continues yelling and then shoots an arrow out at me but hits the wall in front of my mom. Then shoots another and hits my step dad and he goes down. Then I woke up. My mom died 3 years ago
Dreams about loved ones, particularly those who have passed away, can often evoke deep emotions and may be a way for your subconscious to process grief, unresolved feelings, or memories. Let's break down some elements of your dream:
Searching in the Garage: Garages often symbolize storage of past memories or feelings. Searching there might indicate that you are trying to access memories or emotions related to your mother or your past that are currently hidden or unaddressed.
Conflict with Your Mother: The yelling and cursing may resemble unresolved issues or feelings of guilt related to your relationship with her. It may reflect feelings of inadequacy or fear of disappointing her, especially since you mention being known not to lie.
The Open Floor Plan: This might symbolize openness in communication or a lack of boundaries in your relationship with your mother. It could also suggest that you are trying to reconcile the various aspects of your life that are now merged together since her passing.
The Cakes and Puppies: Cakes can symbolize celebrations or sweet moments, while puppies often signify joy and innocence. This scene might represent nostalgia for happier times with your mother or an idealized version of your relationship.
Your Old Bedroom: Returning to an old bedroom may signify a longing for comfort or a time when life was simpler. It could represent a need to reconnect with your inner child or past self.
Emerald’s Interaction and the Attack: Your sister's interaction with the random guy and the sudden violent confrontation with the agents could indicate feelings of vulnerability and the unpredictability of life after losing your mother. This escalation may reflect anxieties about protecting loved ones or feeling unsafe in your current life.
The Arrow Shooting Incident: This imagery likely symbolizes a direct threat to your family, possibly reflecting your fear of losing more loved ones or facing additional loss. The fact that the arrow hits your stepdad, who likely represents a new aspect of your family dynamic, suggests you may be concerned about how loss impacts others in your family.
Overall, this dream may indicate your need to confront and process your unresolved feelings about your mother’s death, deal with family dynamics, and address your fears regarding safety and vulnerability. It suggests a mixture of longing for connection, fear of confrontation, and the struggle to find a sense of security in your current life. Processing these feelings may require more time, reflection, or potentially talking with someone who can help you navigate through your emotions.
