In One of My Lucid Dreams ...

in #psychology7 years ago

... Years ago, in a dream, I was babysitting my own self and my two young brothers as children. I realized that my job was primarily to protect my younger, more vulnerable self. Everything in the dream was like a long road, as if we had a destination to reach.

After a few mishaps with a semi-truck we were driving (inexplicably), I realized that we had been headed to a water park. On the way down from one of those water-slides (cradling my younger self in front of me, as people do on slides), I began to notice various coins of various denominations and values in the pool where we ended up.

Some were pennies, others nickels, still others dimes -- but there were also rare, valuable coins in the mix. It may sound strange to you that I decided to keep the valuable ones for my grown-up self and to gift the less valuable ones to my younger self.

Yet, somehow intuitively, I knew that my task at the moment was to pique my younger self's interest, while at the same time, recognizing their value, protecting the valuable coins from loss or damage.

I have my own interpretation of this dream, but I was wondering if anyone else has any ideas.

Sort:  

Dreams are a weird thing!
In them, I have been in places I have not seen before, but years later I have been on many streets and buildings very close to my sleep.
In Sofia, the city I live in, there is a water tower, which until recently was a gallery. In my dream it was a television tower with a top-floor cafe.
Later on I realized that this tower was a gallery and I went special to her.
I really do not have an explanation!

That's awesome. I live in Sofia, too. We should check it out some time.

This is a message for you from your higher self perfect analogy. Higher self working with analogies-metafores you can understand. You are connected and you are guided listen to your gut feelings they won't lie to you.

Thank you. This is what I have been thinking for the last several weeks.

I don't know Brent, but what an awesome dream. Were any of the coins cryptos? lol

Lol, no, that was in the '90s!

coins's are symbol representation. Your dream it might mean and pointing at the crypto revolution that coming. Also there are slides another sign that point to crypto. Up and down a lot of adrenaline and euphoria in one. The coins are in pool all in one onother pointer to cryptocurency.Very intersting dream thanks for sharing.

You will be able to understand this much better than anyone else can, although I’m not sure dreams always send us a message as much as show us what is going on with our subconscious, sometimes through symbolism. It may have meant something like you’ve arranged all your hardship for the earlier times in life while later will be more abundant, or maybe you will learn more valuable lessons as you get older? Like I said, you know best!

I think it's more like "Not casting my pearls before swine," but thanks for your input!

Here are my two cents...

Were you driving that semi-truck? If so, perhaps that means you are capable of far more than you have ever entertained or there is some undiscovered talent waiting to emerge.

Were you on a trip where you found coins or at the flea market before you had this dream? It doesn't really matter. I am wondering if you were giving your younger self what he needed or was appropriate for the moment not necessarily that it was meant to be less valuable. Things are given or revealed to us when we most need them and/or are ready to receive them. Trust your gut (like Misho said) and know your intentions are pure when it comes to tending to your needs.
