I’m 61 years old and married for 38 years. Living in Florida but grew up in Pennsylvania. My 30 year old son and his wife live with us and have 80 snakes in our garage. He has a landscaping business and parks his truck and trailer with all of his equipment in it on the street in front of our house. Strangely, we live in a beautiful neighborhood and nobody complains about us. My wife says she loves me but is not “in love” with me anymore. In my dream she constantly treats me like I’m her child and like she’s my mother.
This dream could have multiple interpretations, but here is one possible analysis: The dream appears to reflect some underlying conflicts and dynamics within your family and personal life. The presence of your 30-year-old son and his wife living with you may symbolize a sense of feeling burdened or crowded within your own home. The snakes in the garage could represent hidden or repressed emotions or issues that need to be addressed. The fact that your son parks his truck and trailer with equipment on the street suggests that there may be a lack of boundaries or structure within your family dynamics. This could be leading to a sense of being overwhelmed or taken for granted. The mention of living in a beautiful neighborhood where nobody complains could indicate a need to maintain a facade or image of harmony, despite the underlying tensions. The central theme in the dream revolves around your wife treating you like a child and her role resembling that of a mother. This could symbolize a sense of emasculation or feeling powerless within the relationship. The statement that she loves you but is not "in love" with you anymore suggests a potential emotional distance or disconnect between you both. Overall, the dream may be reflecting your need to address these underlying issues within your family dynamics and relationship with your wife. It could be a subconscious call to assert your own needs and establish stronger boundaries, as well as seeking open communication to reconnect with your wife emotionally. Consider discussing your feelings and concerns with your wife to work towards a deeper understanding and potential resolution.
