I felt like someone was stalking me and they were walking around outside my house when Megan was over so we watched the windows seeing shadows. We both had a gun but Megan never shot hers. I tried too but the gun kept getting jammed so I kept trying to pull the top back to get rid of the bad bullets until it fired. I shot one. I was so scared I didn’t want Megan to leave but shamus was there to pick her up so I went outside with her but when I looked towards an opening in the garage I saw two pairs of feet standing and then disappear dropping my toddler daughter back into a chair in the garage. I started running towards the house but woke up. I also remember oil in a water filter?
This dream seems to be reflecting feelings of vulnerability and the fear of being stalked or watched. The presence of someone outside your house suggests a constant sense of surveillance or invasion of privacy. The fact that you and Megan are watching shadows and both have guns may indicate a shared need for protection and a desire to defend yourselves.
The recurring issue with the gun getting jammed represents the frustration and difficulty you face in protecting yourself in this situation. It could suggest a lack of agency or control over the threats you perceive. The eventual success in shooting one bullet may symbolize a temporary release of fear, but it does not resolve the underlying sense of danger.
The presence of Shamus to pick up Megan implies a feeling of support from someone in your waking life. However, the appearance of two pairs of feet and the subsequent dropping of your toddler daughter back into the garage could represent a fear of harm or potential danger to your loved ones. This event triggers panic and a desire to retreat to the safety of your house.
The mention of oil in a water filter is a less prominent detail, but it could symbolize the need to filter or purify your emotions and thoughts in order to gain clarity in the midst of a stressful or overwhelming situation.
Overall, this dream suggests feelings of vulnerability, fear, and a desire for protection in the face of potential threats or dangers. It may reflect concerns about the safety of yourself and your loved ones in your waking life.
