My father was shaking me and attacking me. he would hit me and kick me and shake me. his face would flutter between angry and fear. eventually, I kicked him in his chest and shoved him against a wall to crack the wall. my mother tried to stop but she couldn't. the place this dream took place was in my old house by a room I used to take shelter in during my dads outburst.
Dreams involving violence and aggression can indicate underlying feelings of anger, fear, or feelings of powerlessness in your waking life. This dream may be reflecting unresolved issues with your father or feelings of conflict and tension within your family dynamic. The shifting emotions on your father's face could indicate inner turmoil or mixed emotions that he may be projecting onto you in the dream. The fact that the dream takes place in your old house and near the room where you used to seek refuge during your father's outbursts suggests that there may be lingering emotions or memories from that time in your life resurfacing. Your reaction in the dream - kicking your father and pushing him against the wall to assert your strength and power - could symbolize your subconscious need to protect yourself and set boundaries in your waking life. It may be helpful to reflect on your current relationship with your father and any past experiences that may be contributing to these subconscious fears and conflicts. Consider addressing any unresolved issues or seeking support to work through these emotions in order to find peace and resolution.
