I am in New York and had just saved a bunch of women from a very suspicious guy who seemed capable of rape. Then, all of a sudden, I see a mother with two of her daughters. They are full grown, likely in their 20s or 30s. They actually look like siblings of someone I know in real life. For some reason, they had just agreed to hop on a boat with some really suspicious looking guy. I spend a little while trying to talk them out of it, but then get threatened by him. I go somewhere else, but encounter them again at the port. For some reason, there was a placemat with state names, but only NY, NJ, DC and VA, likely indicating where the boat at this port stops. I decide I cannot let these three women take this boat ride and end up getting in a fight with the suspicious looking guy to prevent them from going.
This dream could reflect your subconscious concern for the safety and well-being of others, particularly women. The initial scenario of saving women from a suspicious person who seemed capable of rape may indicate your desire to protect and defend others from potential harm or danger.
The appearance of the mother and her two daughters, resembling someone you know in real life, suggests a personal connection or empathy towards them. Their decision to board a boat with a suspicious-looking guy could symbolize a risky or potentially harmful choice they are making in their lives. Your attempts to talk them out of it and subsequent encounter at the port indicate your efforts to steer them away from danger. However, the threat from the suspicious guy signifies the challenges or obstacles you face in trying to influence their decisions.
The presence of the placemat with state names, specifically NY, NJ, DC, and VA, could potentially represent different paths or destinations in life. It may imply that the decisions made by the three women have potential consequences that extend beyond their immediate surroundings.
Overall, this dream might reflect your subconscious desire to protect and intervene when you perceive potential harm or danger to others. It could also suggest feelings of frustration or helplessness when faced with the difficulties of influencing someone's choices or actions.
