Me, Derrick, Walker, Mason, and Natalie got on planes to fly across the ocean to England, I was very excited because it felt like home and I was finally getting to go. I was suddenly in some old row homes and saw some absolutely beautiful magical aerial views of what I think are the English Scottish borders. I felt Home so happy and I felt safe and like I was aware constantly that I was dreaming, but that I would remember this because it was also Real and I had been on this magical journey. It feels like a man’s presence was with me when I was wondering at these beautiful views he felt safe, but almost out of reach and I could not see him. I started waking up often on and it felt like a treat to be able to go back into my dream and travel to what felt safe familiar and like home. Oddly enough, my son Mason also dreamt. He went to England that night as well, he remembers the same small store and row houses and we both kept thinking we had to drive on the other side of the road.
Your dream was rich with emotions and symbolism, interconnected narratives, and shared experiences, especially involving your son. Here’s a detailed interpretation of the elements present in your dream:
Traveling Across the Ocean: This symbolizes a journey of personal growth or transformation. Oceans often represent the subconscious mind and a journey across it may signify delving deeper into your subconscious, exploring new or hidden aspects of yourself.
Excitement and Familiarity of England: England may symbolize a sense of history, roots, or discovery of ancestral connections, which feels both comforting and exciting to you. Your excitement about traveling there and the feeling of it being "home" could suggest a longing for understanding or connection to aspects of your identity or heritage.
Old Row Homes and Aerial Views: Old homes can symbolize nostalgia, ancestry, or an exploration of the past. Aerial views offer a broader perspective, suggesting that you are gaining a new, enlightened understanding of some part of your life. The borders between England and Scotland represent transitions or boundaries, possibly alluding to the threshold of new ventures or understanding parts of your life that are at a crossroads.
Lucid Awareness: Being aware that you're dreaming denotes a growing understanding or awareness in your waking life. You are possibly becoming more conscious or enlightened about various aspects of your environment or internal self.
The Safe, Unseen Man: The presence of a man who feels safe yet unreachable might symbolize a guiding force, protector, or an aspect of yourself or your life that offers support and guidance. His elusiveness suggests an intangible quality, something that provides comfort though it may not be fully realized or understood.
Waking and Returning to the Dream: The ability to wake and return to your dream reflects a desire to revisit or hold onto feelings or situations that offer safety and familiarity. It could indicate a yearning for ongoing growth experienced during that dream state.
Shared Experience with Mason: Your son sharing similar dream elements further deepens the significance, suggesting a strong family bond and connection to shared heritage or experiences. This joint dream experience might hint at parallel paths in personal growth or understanding that you and Mason are undergoing together.
Driving on the Other Side of the Road: This detail highlights adapting to new ways of thinking or behaving. It suggests a perspective shift or a need to approach situations differently, indicative of change or adjustment in real life.
Overall, your dream portrays a blend of exploration, connection with heritage, personal growth, and shared familial experiences. It emphasizes feelings of safety, familiarity, and a journey towards deeper self-awareness and understanding.
