Dream I was with my husband and we were trying to have sex, but he couldn’t stay hard and kept getting frustrated. He was staring at a bottle of something- lotion or some type of cream- that was on the shelf behind us. I told him to stop and asked what was so interesting about it. He didn’t say anything. We put our clothes back on and I asked him why he didn’t want to have sex with me anymore. He told me I looked older, and he admitted to preferring younger men, like how I looked when I was a teenager. I was grossed out by the fact he only wanted me if I looked like a young teenager. I ran off and ended up somewhere else. I met a black man who was dressed in medieval clothing and he told me he was starting an expedition to Romania and that I should join him. I wanted to get away for a while so I agreed and he brought me to a group of other people who were joining us. My name/alias from then on became “Robin” and I was a member of this expedition group. We went to Romania and stayed in a strange castle where we were guests to some local royals but we had plans to investigate their castle for some type of hidden secret. I was sent to stay for the night in a room alone, which had a single bed with a worn dark red blanket and nothing else in it. On the ceiling was a type of primitive air conditioning vent, which I thought was strange. I went and told the leader of our group and he said it was their way of spying on us and that we had to leave. We fought our way out and then we all ran in different directions. I went around the castle and found the secret- it was a bowl of tan sand with blue lines and runes in it. I took it to the leader and he told me that it can tell the future and give the user great power. I told him that he shouldn’t have it and he got very angry at me so I took it for myself and ran. I tried to use it to tell me what my future with my husband would look like but I woke up before it could tell me.
This dream seems to contain various symbols and themes that may reflect underlying emotions and concerns in your waking life. The initial part of your dream, where you are experiencing issues with intimacy and your husband expresses preference for youth, could symbolize feelings of insecurity, fear of aging, or concerns about maintaining attraction and connection within your relationship. It may also suggest a fear of being replaced or not being valued for who you are. The shift to meeting a black man in medieval clothing who invites you on an expedition to Romania could symbolize a desire for change, exploration, or escape from your current circumstances. The alias "Robin" could represent a desire for freedom or transformation. The castle in Romania where you uncover a hidden secret could symbolize hidden aspects of yourself or unresolved issues in your life. The sand with blue lines and runes that can predict the future and grant great power may represent a quest for clarity, control, or understanding of your path in life. Taking the bowl for yourself and trying to use it to see your future with your husband could indicate a desire for insight into your relationship dynamics and how to navigate challenges or uncertainties. Overall, this dream may suggest a need for introspection, communication, and empowerment in dealing with personal and relational issues.
