Where it was dreamed

I was somewhere, heading somewhere. Faces I thought I might know kept flashing by around me. As I was going down into the metro, I saw a food kiosk and wanted to buy something. Taking a closer look at the seller, I asked his name—and it turned out to be my friend/acquaintance from trade school. We were like in the memes: “Well, what’s up?” “Nothing much. You?” “Nothing much.” I took what I wanted, but they didn’t give me my change. Anyway, things started happening… I turned away and found myself on a trolleybus instead of in the metro passage. Then I looked through the kiosk window (I could barely remember what those things are called) and first saw a Moskvich 2140 with its hood open, but it didn’t have a UZAM engine—it had some kind of old diesel, maybe a Ford one. Then it turned into a MAZ crane truck, with the number 107 written in a little diamond on the hood. Then I found myself at my old workplace, bringing grinder attachments over. There were people I knew from work and from my life, including that same guy from trade school, and so on. I brought them sanding discs and collected the used ones. Then I ended up somewhere like a kindergarten or a hospital bed—I don’t remember what was going on. I think people were sleeping, but there seemed to be girls there, and for some reason I was trying to communicate and talk with them while lying down. Then I found myself between a trailer and a white MAN semi-truck tractor that was driving away from my house, with Dad behind the wheel. I wanted to jump off, but realized it was going too fast. I knocked and said, “Let me in.” He said, “Where?” “Into the cab.” I climbed into the cab and said I’d wanted to jump off, but it was going too fast. And while all this is happening, someone is chasing us, like in GTA 5.
The dream seems like a series of transitions between different stages and roles: the metro, a trolleybus, a kiosk, a former workplace, a place of rest or treatment, and then a truck near your home. This may reflect a sense that life is moving in several directions at once, while you’re trying to figure out where you belong and who is around you.
Familiar faces and a friend from vocational school. People from different periods of your life seem to blend into one group. Meeting a friend, where the conversation boils down to a joking “Well, how are you?—Oh, not bad,” may symbolize a simple, familiar connection—a way of keeping in touch without needing to explain much. Perhaps familiar people and the feeling of being understood are especially valuable to you right now. At the same time, you ask the shopkeeper his name even though you recognize him, as if you’re trying to redefine who this person is to you now, rather than only who he used to be.
A purchase with no change. You get what you came for, but you don’t get the money left over. This may evoke a situation where you invest time, energy, or attention but don’t feel you’re getting everything you deserve in return. The suddenness of the episode also matters: you turn away—and suddenly you’re somewhere else. Perhaps some unfinished loose ends or feelings of unfairness quickly get lost amid bigger changes.
Changing vehicles and cars. The metro, trolleybus, old Moskvich, unusual engine, and then a MAZ crane truck—many different ways of getting around and working. Vehicles may represent the direction of your life, control over its movement, and your ability to handle tasks. The Moskvich with an unfamiliar or unexpected engine resembles something familiar that has become different inside. Its transformation into a heavy crane truck intensifies the themes of burden, power, and practical labor. The number 107 may simply be a detail from the dream; if it’s connected to a specific memory, date, or significant number for you, your personal association matters more than any universal interpretation.
Your former job and sanding discs. You bring attachments and collect the used ones—in other words, you keep the work process going and handle the exchange between what’s new and what’s worn out. This may point to a habit of being useful, providing others with what they need, and noticing when something has run its course. Perhaps your past work experience still affects how you evaluate yourself: through practical actions, responsibility, and your ability to “deliver what’s needed.” The used discs might also bring to mind repetitive tasks or fatigue from cycles you have to go through again and again.
A place that seems like a daycare or hospital. Here, the surroundings become unclear and more vulnerable: someone is lying down or asleep, and you try to talk to the girls without getting up. This may reflect a desire for closeness or contact when you lack energy, confidence, or freedom to act. The fact that you try to start a conversation matters: even in a passive state, you’re seeking connection with others.
Your father driving and the chase. This episode brings together the idea of home and the idea of losing control. The vehicle is already moving fast; at first you want to jump off, but realize that would be dangerous and ask to be let into the cab. Your father at the wheel may symbolize your actual father, support, authority, or a familiar way of trusting someone else to choose the direction. You don’t choose the route, but you can ask for a safe place and get inside rather than staying outside. The GTA-style chase adds tension and a sense that something is pursuing you—responsibilities, anxieties, or unresolved issues. Still, in the dream you’re not just running away: you find a way to stay in a moving situation and protect yourself.
Overall meaning. The dream may be about change, reconnecting with people and work from the past, and trying to maintain control while circumstances shift quickly. Two roles recur in it: you keep things running and help others—for example, by bringing the discs—while also looking for somewhere you can enter and feel safe. It may be useful to ask yourself: where are you giving more than you receive; which old roles still affect you; and whom or what do you trust to “drive” when things start moving too fast?
This isn’t a prediction or a literal explanation of the dream, but one possible reading of its imagery. Your personal associations with vocational school, your former job, your father, and the specific vehicles may point to the most meaningful interpretation.
