I was living and working in outer space on a ship and I was trying to advance to another level of my career but suddenly I was being sucked back to earth by a vacuum controlled by my family trying to force me to come home. When I saw myself I wasn't me and my parents were strangers. I woke up having a hard time breathing and felt like I was stuck in the blackness of outer space.
This dream reflects a deep-seated conflict between your desires for career advancement and personal independence versus familial expectations and responsibilities. Living and working in outer space symbolizes your aspirations and the pursuit of your goals, where you feel free and capable. The vacuum pulling you back to Earth represents the pressure from your family to conform to their expectations or return to a previous state of being. Seeing yourself as a stranger suggests feelings of disconnection from your true self or identity, possibly due to these pressures. The difficulty breathing and the sensation of being stuck in the blackness of outer space indicate a feeling of suffocation or anxiety in your current life situation, emphasizing the importance of finding a balance between personal ambitions and family ties.
