Uncomfortable dream where I (an Indian) is somewhere. I am in Russian embassy type place (just outside) and talking to some people. I somehow critcize Putin and a hand with stick comes out of the the door trying to hit me. So we have to be discreet and say heil Putin. Then I have had enough and try to run. I am running and running and there are religious fanatics (Christians, jews) behind me (and others). I hide in the toilet, and then come out pretending to be a fanatic myself. But there is a tension in the air, I am very tensed of being found out and killed. My heartbeat is racing.
Dreams often draw on our fears, anxieties, and tensions that we experience in our waking lives. This dream may symbolize feelings of vulnerability, oppression, and the pressure to conform to certain beliefs or ideologies in order to survive or avoid conflict. The setting of the Russian embassy could represent a sense of being in a foreign or unfamiliar territory, surrounded by a different culture or authority figure that you may feel opposed to or threatened by. Criticizing Putin and then being forced to show loyalty could reflect inner conflicts or fears of speaking out against powerful figures or systems. The religious fanatics chasing you could symbolize societal pressures, judgment, or persecution based on your beliefs or identity. Hiding in the toilet and pretending to be a fanatic to survive may suggest a feeling of having to mask your true self or beliefs in order to protect yourself from harm or discrimination. The tension and fear of being discovered or harmed in the dream may point to underlying worries about speaking your truth, standing out from the crowd, or being true to yourself in the face of possible backlash or confrontation. Overall, this dream may be highlighting feelings of powerlessness, the need to navigate complex social dynamics, and the internal struggle between staying safe by conforming and staying true to your own values and beliefs. It could be a reflection of the inner turmoil you may be experiencing in certain aspects of your waking life.
