Any dream interpretors in the house?
I can’t sleep because I have been completely freaked out by a dream that has left me so scared I cant close my eyes and go back to sleep so I thought either I talk it out or write it out. Its 3.30am so talking to anyone is out of the question because as much as they love me my friends would KILL me if I rang them now and my partner isn’t well so I don’t want to call him either.
So the dream….. I’m at different venues. I dont recognise any of the venues. The first place is a large football stadium and there is a man with a strong upper body and only thighs for legs. He crawls along the ground, finds someone, jumps on their shoulders and wraps his legs and arms around their face and suffocates them. As people are being suffocated they make this sound of desperation as they panic and fight for air.
Everyone runs away and after the stadium I got into a four poster bed that was in a tree with a friend. We drew the curtain round the bed but I was worried that we wouldnt see the killer coming so left my friend in there and carried on running. The next place was an office and this time I had my youngest son with me. As I arrived everyone looked scared so I knew the man was already there killing people and I couldn’t understand why everyone just sat there and didn’t run. I made my son disappear somehow and decided there was no way he was staying in this dream! I went into another part of the building and started sending a txt. As I stood there the killer came in and dragged himself right past me and jumped on the shoulders of a woman who was in the room I was standing next to. The noise of desperation she made was really, really loud and scary. I ran up some stairs and heard her making that awful noise as she desperately fought for her life (the noise was really loud).
That one was too close for comfort because he had literally dragged himself right past me to kill this other woman so I decided to wake myself up (I remember the whole dream was in colour and very bright). Since waking up I havent been able to get back to sleep, so here I am at 3.45am now on the internet writing it out!
So if you think you can help me work out the meaning of the dream let me know….. I learnt about two deaths yesterday that were sudden and one completely unexpected (she was hit by a car) and I just wonder if it is because both deaths touched me.

I write on this self development blog about building self confidence, being purpose driven and being altogether fabulous. I write especially for women over forty but all women are welcome.
What a vivid and dramatic dream! You have obviously been shaken by the two deaths you mentioned and at times like these we feel a greater sense of our own mortality.
I think that your “killer” is something you sub-conscious mind conjured up as a result of the automobile incident. When you see someone driving from outside a car you just see their upper body.
You would have a better idea what a four-poster represents to you but the design of a four-poster can be likened to a fortress. The fact that you were in a tree and with a friend I think was just your way of trying to get out of harm’s way.
I found it interesting that you were able to ‘spirit’ your son away but could not extricate yourself from the situation except by waking up.
I sense that you’re a very sensitive person and that it’s not only the recent personal deaths that have affected you but even the news of the recent violence in Mumbai, etc. and also generally the despair that many are experiencing at this time.
I think that you want to do more to help and perhaps feel that what you’re doing isn’t enough. There maybe something that you have been procrastinating about implementing. I believe it’s important for you to take action and do whatever is in your heart to empower those you care about while at the same time acknowledging that there will be many that you cannot ‘save’.
Diane, I hope this has been helpful.

One Interpretation (The Raglan Method)
Hi Diane;
Remember the following:
1. Only you can really interpret the meaning of the symbols in your dream because they differ with everyone
2. Dreams are about the dreamers’ life situations
I have assumed that it was my dream and hope our symbolic meanings are not so far apart.
“You are presently dealing with a contentious situation in your life, probably involving your family. You find it difficult extricating yourself from the problem, unsure of the steps you have taken to handle it and are fearful you might not be successful. You are desperately looking for support.”
Let me suggest you break down the dream as outlined at http://geocities.com/raglanr/raglan_dream.html into Objects, Persons and Circumstances as the table demonstrates. You might find it revealing.
