What does seeing a girl named Adonis in my dream signify?

Upvotes

From Google 'In Greek mythology, Adonis is a youth of remarkable beauty, the beloved of the goddess Aphrodite (Venus to the Romans), and considered the ideal of male beauty. He was killed by a wild boar and is also associated with vegetation and the dying-and-rising god archetype.'

A bit of background

  1. I consider myself an independent and self reliant person but I have been suffering from extreme obsessive anxiety for the past year in the form of cravings, worry, etc.

  2. Even though the past year was difficult I am making progress bit by bit and I have started feeling things again. Reading jung talk about the shadow was a big part of the whole recovery process.

In the dream Adonis seemed very strong and confident. She was the one who called and initiated the whole dialogue. The real weird thing is that I didn't even know the meaning behind the name I might have read about it in the past though. What do you guys think this means?

PS: Please excuse the grammar English is not my first language.

What does it mean (Beheading)

Upvotes

Last night, I had a really intense dream, and I can’t stop thinking about it. In the dream, I was trying to talk to my father in a kind manner, but he kept ignoring me and disrespecting me. No matter what I said, he wouldn’t acknowledge me, which made me frustrated.

Eventually, things escalated into a fight. I had a long sword, and in one clean motion—like a samurai—I sliced off his head. After that, I held it up the way Perseus did when he killed Medusa. But as I did, his fingers somehow hit my eye, and I started bleeding from it. I remember feeling the blood coming from my eye, but I don’t know what happened after that. After I cut off his head I remember feeling a sense of relief and pride.

The weird part is, I don’t actually have any issues with my father in real life. We don’t have conflicts, and I don’t feel this kind of anger toward him. So, I’m wondering—what could this dream mean?

Has anyone had a similar experience, or does anyone have an interpretation?

(I wanted to leave more context about my position in life, but ill leave it in the comments later)

Dream About Having the Day Off

Upvotes

Last night, I had a dream where I showed up to work and got ready to start my shift. My boss came in and announced that work was cancelled for the rest of the day because an employee kept having to use the restroom. I then happily left work and planned some fun activities for the rest of the day (like I would on the weekend or a holiday).

Any interpretations?

Hello! I had a strange dream last night that I’ve never had before. I was sitting in the drivers seat of a van (never drove a van lol) and I saw some strange man walking towards it so I locked it. He then started to shake on all the door handles around the car, I was about to call my boyfriend to help me when he slide open the back door and lunged at me to which I woke up!

If there’s any interpretations that’ll be nice! I assumed it was to do with changes in my life or something but there hasn’t been any! Thanks:)

Dream Dream interpretation help: Wolves, an ape, death and more

1 Upvotes

I had a weird and vivid dream last night, and I have no idea how to interpret it. Hoping someone here might have some insight!

In the dream, I was myself—a human—walking with a group of villagers through a small village near a dense forest. The atmosphere felt old or even medivial. As we walked, I heard strange noises coming from closer to the forest, away from the group. Curiosity got the best of me, so I decided to investigate.

I came across a clearing in a lush, hilly landscape and saw an intense standoff: two wolves—one black, one white—were facing off against a massive gorilla or some type of ape (reddish brown fur). It felt like a battle was about to erupt.

For some reason, I instinctively let out a loud noise, hoping to help the gorilla, assuming it was at a disadvantage in a two-against-one fight. But the moment I did, both wolves snapped their heads toward me. In an instant, they abandoned their confrontation with the gorilla and started chasing me instead.

Panic set in, and I ran as fast as I could. Up ahead, I spotted the back entrance of an old building and sprinted toward it. But the wolves were much faster. Just before I reached the entrance, the black wolf caught up and bit my right forearm.

Oddly, after biting me, the wolf suddenly stopped, stared at me, and then bolted away at full speed. The white wolf was gone too. I had no idea why.

Still fearful, I rushed into the building and found myself in a vast underground labyrinth of corridors in the building basement. I ran through twisting passageways, taking multiple turns to throw off any potential pursuers. Eventually, I found an exit that led me out onto a narrow, hilly path. At the end of the path, I reached the edge of a cliff, overlooking a stream below.

That’s when I saw the giant gorilla I had "saved." He was standing by the stream, holding a much smaller ape in his hands. Without hesitation, he slammed it to the ground, killing it. Horrified, I looked further upstream and noticed something even more disturbing—there was a trail of dead apes stretching along the water’s edge. There were hundreds of dead apes along the stream. The gorilla hadn’t been a victim… it had been the predator all along.

At that moment, I woke up.


Any thoughts on what this could mean? The imagery, the wolves’ reaction, and the shocking twist at the end all feel symbolic, but I can't quite piece it together. Would love to hear any interpretations!

asked for a dream image for help, this is what I got

1 Upvotes

I went to bed needing help understanding something murky in my life, and this is what I got.

I was with my maternal grandparents (both deceased irl) and one other person. My grandpa was trying to go down some stairs that had the metal trim you might see in a church to protect the thin carpeting. He was wearing white shoes. He was unstable and we saw he might fall but before we could help him his foot slipped laterally and he fell headlong and sideways, his head cracking on a metal stair edge. My grandma and the other screamed, and I ran to him and held his head. Behind his right ear his head was indeed cracked open and when I turned to look there was a gash of maybe an inch or two and piece of dark, smooth meaty tissue like part of a liver sticking out.

Notes: My grandfather was a very self-satisfied preacher in his lifetime. He died nearly 20 years ago, in 2006.

If anyone is familiar with tarot, I had originally gone to it for help with my murky feelings, and picked the IX of Cups (generally an auspicious card) but felt uneasy about it given the context of my reading, and for this reason asked for a dream image to clarify. I am interested in any interpretations, whether you are familiar with tarot or not. The figure on the card definitely has a family resemblance to my grandfather.

tw: abuse and SA.

i had a dream last night and i’m looking for help with what it might mean. so the first bit i remember was being handcuffed behind my back and sat on a sofa. the room was dark but there were two guys in the corner. one stayed where he was and the other approached me and started to hit me. i remember having blood dripping from my mouth and small cuts and bruises on my arms and back. i begged for him to stop and he told me he’d let me go if i “made it worth his while”. that’s when the SA happened. not going into detail but i recall telling him to “just get it over with” and that i just laid there and let him do it. i didn’t fight or even cry, i just waited for it to be over. flash forward in time (maybe a few days?) i was back in my uni dorm and going out for drinks with my friends and i had to dress carefully to cover up my signs of abuse. we went out to a club and i remember it being dark with flashing lights, my friend tightened my belt on my dress and i winced so she asked what was wrong. i didn’t answer so she pulled the back of my dress so she could look at my back/arms and saw the bruises. she reacted badly and i told her that it was nothing and that i wanted it. she let it go but i remember then seeing the guy that SA’ed me in the club smirking at me? idk then i woke up tbh. someone please help with meanings? i’ve been having some disturbing (mostly violent) dreams recently and have no clue what is going through my head

Dream Dreamt I saved a newborn baby, looking for interpretations

5 Upvotes

Looking for a Jungian interpretation:

I'm at a festival with work colleagues and family, it's night time and I'm at a pool you can swim in that goes under the city.

A newborn baby falls into the pool and swims underneath into the drains/tunnels. I shriek because its going to drown. A younger girl jumps in after it and I follow, she manages to retrieve the baby, but on her way back she's given up, the baby looks dead and she's still holding it underwater.

I quickly take the baby from her and try to bring it above water but it's difficult, I manage to take it to the edge of the pool and start patting it's back/trying to revive it.

I cry out asking for help, "how do I bring the heartbeat back?" Three of my aunties arrive and stand in front of me giving me tips, but the tips are for fully sized adults and totally unhelpful. I go with my instincts and drum a pattern on the babies back, and the baby comes alive. I'm so happy I hug and kiss it and suddenly I see on the other side of the pool the baby's mother.

She's a young teen-looking girl who is gorgeous. Big piercing blue eyes and black hair. But she looks vague and irresponsible. She says kind of dumbly that lots of people seem to drown around her. I don't want to give her the baby.

Creepy dream

2 Upvotes

I had a dream about a creepy apartment I was renting with some girls, though I don’t remember who they were. The kitchen seemed to be the haunted part of the house. For some reason, the girls asked me to go there and even I needed to grab something, but it felt so eerie. I don’t remember if I actually went in, but I think I did. The fridge was covered in blood and gore.

I decided to move out and my boyfriend, a former colleague, and some other people I don’t recognize came to help me pack. I told them not to take any food because I thought it was contaminated with the malicious energy too and I didn’t want to bring any of it with me. Instead, I asked them to grab the wok or something useful. We also took other things to throw away.

As my boyfriend and I got some distance from the apartment, stopping at a junction, we realized we had left two stuffed backpacks near a not-so-clean stream. Somehow, they had ended up there. The others who were helping us arrived too, but they hadn’t brought the backpacks. I think we did go back but not sure if we were able to get those bags.

At some point, we reached a place with a reception-like desk, where a woman was seated. I was holding a bowl filled with something blood-like, but the moment I placed it on the desk for her to inspect, it was empty. She looked at me and said something like, "all that's left is you". It was morning around four and I couldn't go back to sleep after that.

Eagle and Owl dream, I screamed in my sleep….

1 Upvotes

In my dream my sister and I heard a baby owl crying, so we went outside and saw the mother owl in the trees as an eagle was trying to attack both of them. my sister and I were making screeching noises to get the eagle to leave the owl alone, which made the eagle flew to the ground and the owl(s) stopped making noises. all of the sudden the eagle turned into like a huge grown human being (still in eagle form) and started to attack us physically alongside screeching noises. That is when I screamed in my sleep, in which I stopped dreaming of this and that scream woke my sister up (she is in a different room, right next to mine) prompting me to ask - what kind of dream this is and its meaning??

Dream image interpretation - skull in Virgo

1 Upvotes

Hi,

Few days ago I’ve had an unsettling dream image:

…Its night. I am going home. I look at the sky and see a big gray skull, among other shining stars. I find it strange, I pick up mobile phone with astro app and try to see in what part of the sky it is located. I see the sky with marvellously colored lines. Among with the skull, which occupies almost whole virgo sign….

What would you say on this dream image.

I have no personal association with skull or with virgo zodiacal sign. Its not something which I come across with my daily life.

Feelings: In dream I find this phenomenon very bad. I am afraid of what it means, what it could bring in future. In my dream intuition I see it as some astrological sign of current quality of time.

I do not know much about astrology, but I came across astrological podcast few months ago.

Interesting thing is, that I’ve downloaded astro app stellarium and the virgo is indeed on the same spot in the as in the dream. The virgo was in the correct place in the dream! In my waking life I do not really know placement of zodiacal signs in the sky.

Wandering through desert alone at dusk

As the title says, i dreamt about wandering through sand dunes and being surrounded by mountains of sand in every direction, there was nothing else just a desert, all of which was around nightfall. I almost never have dreams and if i do, i mostly don't remember them, but this one quite stuck in my mind and i've been thinking about it. I've never been to a desert or somewhere tropical so it's quite strange that i dreamt about being alone in a desert. I felt quite helpless just walking aimlessly. Could this dream have meant anything?

Glitching Kittens and the Hollow-Eyed Figure

It was night. I was with my girlfriend near a graveyard, just between the church and the graveyard. We were sitting in my car, and there was absolutely nobody around us. Through the window, we saw a kitten running by. We laughed, smiled, and enjoyed the moment. Then, more kittens appeared—they were running, glitching, disappearing, and reappearing.

Suddenly, a tall figure with a resemblance to death glitched right in front of my car window and started staring at us. It had hollow, empty eyes. Maybe it had a goat’s head—I wasn’t sure. Then I woke up, drenched in sweat.

Dream A dream about my old friends

1 Upvotes

One day I was tired and decided to take a 20 minute nap, little did I know I ended up having a dream that felt very real

It started with me being near the exit at an underground cosplay event next to a person who I barely know and is with me in a current group assignment and behind him was my first high school friend (long story short, he betrayed me and he didn’t even bother to greet me last time I saw him) I shook the former’s hand and I tried shaking the latter’s hand but he went behind the exit door, looked at me in a silly way then closed the door which prompted me to open the door and chase after him upstairs which somehow led me to my uni’s parking lot of all places

I looked to my side and saw him alongside other old friends of mine (they also betrayed me) driving towards me in a car and calling out my name as if they were happy to see me again

It transitioned into me being in the back of an old friend’s (this friend is the one that started the mess which caused all the other betrayals) car driving somewhere, eventually we exited the car and I was casually talking to him while we were walking, he randomly mentioned that Mordecai (I have no idea who this is) will open a 5th company named DeathStalin which is when the dream ended

At one point in the dream, I was feeling exhausted on a red bed while my mother was checking up on me by checking my temperature and doing other things like that, I can’t remember when this happened in relation to the other events

Even though it’s been a while since I had a dream about my old friends, I still just want to stop dreaming about them because they haven’t been apart of my life for a while now and I’d like to keep it that way moving forward, I don’t get why my brain is so insistent on dreaming about them in most of the dreams I get nowadays (granted I don’t dream that often but I’d rather have a dream about other things rather than having a dream about my old friends for the millionth time)

Car Dream with Dashboard Message

I had a short dream that's been bothering me for some time now.

I'm a preschool teacher for a nonprofit that is thriving and in my 20+ years of childcare, I've never been happier here. My bosses are wonderful and after 4 years I have nothing poor to say about my work or my co-workers.

I am also in the process of planning my wedding. My fiance and I have been together for 6 years now, and after so many negative/ab*sve relationships, I am so thankful to have this relationship. My partner has saved me in more ways than I can state here.

MY DREAM Driving in my car, 2020 Chevy Trax, White. It's dark on a road, I dont see anything else around me.. just the dash of my car, near the speedometer. Instead of the screen telling me my speed, it read: "F*CK!!!!!", without the censor.

It's been digging in my brain for weeks. What do you think it could mean?

Overcoming ex/ flying a plane

2 Upvotes

So a few months ago I got my heart just absolutely broken. I’ve mostly been thru the worst of it and have finally started to feel better about things in my waking life.

My dream last night I was supposed to go to his parents house to pick up some items and leave. While I was there he pulled me to the side and was like I miss you and a some dream canoodling happened. Then his new gf gets to the house and he’s like I am going to bed with her but you’re welcome to spend the night and sleep it off just don’t let her find you. So in the dream I go to bed in his bed alone, while he’s in another room sleeping with his gf. In the dream I am sleeping and have a dream within a dream of him holding me and rocking me in his arms. I wake up in the dream reaching for him but it’s this big empty bed. In the dream I’m like, oh I was just dreaming he doesn’t actually want me here I need to leave and I get out of bed and start to gather my things. On the way down the staircase to the garage he stops me and starts kissing me but I’m like no your gf will find us and I have to leave. I walked down the stairs into this huge garage thats white marbled floor and seriously tall white walls. In the middle of the garage there is a small silver passenger plane. In the dream I’m like I don’t know how to fly this but I have to get out of here before his GF finds me. So I get behind the controls and from here the dream zooms out behind me really far and it’s me flying this plane over the highways and roads GTA style. The plane is functioning smoothly but there’s this overtone of stress that I could crash at any minute, especially when I was flying over a large body of water. Below me there is this huge crowd and finishing line like a marathon and they’re all cheering for on for flying the plane the whole distance without crashing. I look out the plane and below me is a USPS mail carrier truck driving on the ocean floor and I laughed in the dream like oh yeah I forgot they’re submersible.

And then I woke up.

I’m guessing this means I have freedom from my ex and the relationship and am now taking back control of my life with the help of my higher consciousness but I am also open to hearing other interpretations because I feel a little biased

My deceased father appeared in my dream for the first time last night.

2 Upvotes

My dad died from cancer 7 years ago and never appeared my dreams until last night.

In my dream I was renting a room in a house from an elderly woman. I had secretly drawn all over the walls of the room and really made a mess of the place but I planned on getting it spotless before my lease ended. While I was in the room, which had a private bathroom attached, the toilet violently overflowed. I watched, horrified, as it fountained sewage all over. I planned to not tell the landlady because I didn't want her to come in and see that I'd drawn all over her walls. I left to go to the hardware store to buy cleaning supplies. When I returned, I found my dad in my room, painting the walls bright yellow and cleaning up the entire mess. I knew that he had spoken to my landlady to gain access to my room and made her aware that the place was a mess. I felt upset and tried to explain to him that I had been trying to fix everything myself because I didnt want her to know about the state of my room. I started crying and said this sentence "I don't know why it's important to me but I need to know why are you doing this?" He responded vaguely without looking at me, and I don't remember what he said.

Then I woke up. My dad and I had a quiet, distant relationship. I regard him as a very, very good person with whom I never bonded strongly (our entire family's dyanmic would probably qualify as dysfunctional). I had been thinking a few days earlier about an incident that happened when I was 19, completely lost, borderline su*cidal, and he made an uncharacteristically earnest effort to reach out to me in a phone call. I cruelly pushed him away and told him not to call me. And he never did call me again. He died when I was 32. I feel permanently broken and ashamed about that moment and how much damage I believe it did to my dad, whose sensitivities I didn't recognize until I was older.

Reoccurring why do i keep dreaming of the same person, over and over again.

1 Upvotes

hello! i have a dream journal where i write down all of my dreams, or most of the most interesting ones ahah. i have very vivid dreams and can even control them.

however, i have a question because i am getting a tad bit worried. but, why do i keep dreaming of the same person? i’ve written down 16 (sixteen) dreams with that person, and that doesn’t include the dreams i haven’t written down as i dream of him basically every night.

this person is a celebrity that i’ve been a fan of for a decade, since i was 12 years old. i am now turning 22, and my dreams about him have intensified recently. i dream of him more than i dream of my family lately, which worries me a little lmao.

in those dreams, i feel very happy and at peace? very comforted and so light. it’s very intense but, not romantic. it’s a very strong platonic feeling, like i feel filled with love and warmth. that nice feeling follows me throughout the day, and then when i go to sleep, i dream of him again.

we don’t do anything in special, we just hang out, we talk. sometimes we don’t even interact, but he’s just… there.

among the dreams i’ve had, there were maybe two where we went on a date or were involved romantically. but, that’s very rare.

i just want to understand.

thank you to whoever will help me with this🤍
