Was walkijg to this big, dchool type castle place, where only high ranked people could enter. And, many fangirls tried to enter through one of the big 3 gates, but a little after the gate a invisible force stopped them and they fell back out. Me, a REALLY tall dude with black rlly short hair and like eyeliner, wearing school looking clothing but darker themed (i feel like calling him cassius just feels right), and another girk a bit shorter than tall dude were walking to enter, since we can. No one really knew. I decixed, lets tease, so i told my friend the tall dude and the gitl "guys lets watch them fail to enter before we do" either tall dude was annoyed i said that or annoyed bcuz he already was (iconic, he leant on the wall move) or its js his emo glare or amthn idk But we stood, watched witj glee then entered leaving all,the fangirls behind hehehehehehe The emo looking guy went off somewhere so me and the girl started walking, she said aomething like "wait can we go-" (i forgot where she wnared to go but ykyk) and i sais a second later "wait can we go toilet" she said "why" and i said "my stomache hurts" she wa slike "thats not new" and then we were gonna continue going to where she wanted, but i saw a special place. Soft materials. Litterely was the sotres name but they sold those likez library book fairs type of stuff, like interactive childeens books, toys, stationary eyc. I litterely squeeled and me and the girl rushed there. It was special bcuz not much ppl were aloud inside here so it was a special store for us. But it was so tall i had to climb a ladder and i could still barely reach. Climbed up, when a guy came from around a corner i squeeled and fell back down (ouch). I climbed back up, my friend was talking about a little trip shed wanted to go too. Also i saw a sign that said luke "if you want free goods, a boyfriend, free discord welkins x6 (and other stuff) just message!" Anyways about the trip, apperantly u were gonna go somewhere, and like it was like a festival. And many things will be on discount. Pfcoure, my friend bought it. And disapeared, then thisguy and his girlfriend showed up, but he looked alot like donald trump so i said, "omg look its donald trump. Omg hes hot. No wait its donald trump." The shop owner laughed at this, somehow put the text on his story like i posted a tweet or smthn. so i said i also want to do it forgetting i had to pay. Also the area we were in, i had a dream abt something bad happening there and didnt realize. Anyways, the guy set it down, then said pay please. I was like "oh right!" So i got off the ladder and moved to like this dark closet thing and started searching my bag for my wallet. The shop owner could still see me so no matter. But, i wa sstrugglijg to find it. The shop owner even got out and stared at me from the light, looking at me with confusion, then realization.(not a good one.) Apperantly he wa sholding a glass of wine. Sudddnly, it became dark, and windy. He told everyone to leave. As i was about to meet my nightmare. What i got from this was, a nightmare was a bieng inside one special high class person, that i dont know what they do, but the high people dont hate you for it. So it cant be that bad. I heard a really deep, dark gutling vocie sayong "mm yes. Id like to meet her now. Its about time she sees her nightmare." (In my head) so i was like 'Oooo okay'(in my thoughts) From the wine glass, i could see my reflection, ever so subtling changing to this more, ghost like face. But it was red, and the chin was expanding to the left. And i couldnt see the ehes, as a hoodie was hiding it. I was expecting to see someone walk up to me, as i knew that would happen from my deja vu moment. But, i woke up
This dream is rich in symbolism and reflects a blend of personal experiences, desires, fears, and social dynamics. Let's break down the key elements and delve into their meanings.
The dream begins with you walking towards a grand castle-like school, indicating aspirations of entering a prestigious or exclusive environment. This could reflect your own ambitions in life, where you feel the need to prove your worth or to fit into a certain social group. The castle symbolizes a space of learning, growth, and possibly judgment from your peers.
The fangirls attempting to enter but being forced back represents feelings of exclusion or the struggle for acceptance. The invisible force stopping them could symbolize external challenges faced by those striving for attention or validation, reflecting your awareness of social hierarchies and the pressures that accompany them. Your decision to watch them fail shows a touch of schadenfreude or perhaps a defensive mechanism where you feel more secure by keeping some distance from those you perceive as competition.
The tall dude ("Cassius") and your female friend may represent different aspects of your personality or social interactions. Cassius seems to hold an enigmatic presence—perhaps your admiration for individuals with a misunderstood or "emo" aesthetic. The banter between you and your friend about going to the toilet conveys a sense of carefree camaraderie, which contrasts with the heavier themes of judgment and social standing.
The "Soft Materials" shop represents a sanctuary or a space of joy and nostalgia, reflecting longings for simpler times, childhood wonder, and comfort. Your excitement when entering the store conveys a need for creative expression and the joy of exploration. Climbing the ladder and almost falling suggests a desire to reach greater heights while also feeling vulnerable in your pursuits.
The encounter with the "Donald Trump" figure can symbolize feelings of confusion in your social landscape—perhaps people who wield power but are often misunderstood or criticized. This part of the dream might bring up your feelings about authority figures or the complexities of social status. The humor in your reaction could signify the absurdity you perceive in the structures of power.
The moment you look for your wallet in the dark closet speaks to feelings of inadequacy or being unprepared. This struggle aligns with themes of self-worth and economic anxiety, as you feel the pressure of societal expectations (“pay please”). The shop owner's confusion suggests that there is an expectation to conform or to have things figured out, even when you don't.
The sudden darkness and wind signify a shift towards anxiety or fear. The departure of others hints at isolation in times of stress, and the deep voice asking to meet you indicates a confrontation with your own fears and subconscious. This potentially represents your ‘shadow self,’ an integral perspective in Jungian psychology that symbolizes parts of our psyche we avoid.
Your reflection changing subtly into something more ghostly relates to your fears surrounding identity and acceptance. This transformation might reflect how pressure to fit into certain social expectations has caused you to feel distanced from your authentic self, losing sight of who you truly are.
Ultimately, this dream encapsulates themes of self-identity, social pressures, exclusion, nostalgia, and inner conflict. The castle reflects your aspirations and possible insecurities in navigating social hierarchies. This journey brings forth a confrontation with desires and anxieties about acceptance, ultimately pushing you to explore deeper layers of your own character.
Moving forward, consider exploring these themes in your waking life:
Self-Reflection: Take time to reflect on your aspirations and the pressures you feel about fitting in. Are there areas where you feel insecure, and how can you nurture your true self?
Nostalgia: Embrace aspects of your past that bring you joy and consider how they can influence your present well-being.
Confronting Fears: The darker elements in your dream suggest it's time to face fears rather than avoid them. Perhaps journaling, creative outlets, or therapy could provide pathways to understanding and integrating these shadow aspects.
By addressing these elements, you can gradually transform the themes from waking nightmares into empowering insights.
