I was trapped with a community of violent people. I don’t know what we were hiding from, but we were in a shopping mall. We were stiff and slow as we broke things. But we were trying to come together to survive. In one part of the dream I was being attacked and had an episode of sleep paralysis.
This dream may represent feelings of being trapped or overwhelmed in a dangerous or stressful situation in your waking life. The shopping mall could be symbolic of consumerism or materialism that is causing chaos or destruction. The violent people may represent a part of yourself or others in your life who are causing harm or conflict. The need to come together and survive demonstrates a desire for support and unity during times of crisis. However, the stiffness and slow movement could suggest feeling limited or stuck in finding solutions to your problems. The sleep paralysis episode could indicate a sense of helplessness or powerlessness in the face of the situation, or it could reflect a need for rest and self-care in order to regain control and overcome any obstacles. It might be helpful to explore any current challenges you are facing and find healthy ways to cope and seek support from others.
