Dreaming

Dream interpretation has always been interesting to me. The past few weeks, I have been having insanely vivid dreams that often jolt me awake. That is an obvious sign that there is something in my life I need to address.

Last night, I had a dream of visiting a friend I recently reconnected with. While at the airport waiting for my flight home, 2 planes crashed into the walkway to the terminal... the second right after the first had been cleaned up. The crashes weren't too terrible (just enough to scrape up the front of the plane and rip off part of the metal) and happened while the planes were already landed and just taxi-ing up to the terminal. After the crashes, I looked at my itenerary to make sure my plane was not one of the ones that crashed. It wasn't, but I did realize that my flight was supposed to leave 12 hours or so ago. When I went to the gate to talk to a rep, they told me there was nothing they could do for me, and I would have to wait at the airport until further notice. Then I woke up in a sweat and felt stressed out! I couldnt shake the feeling for an hour or so.

In trying to interpret this dream, I came across a few key ideas...

Airplane:
To dream that you miss your connection flight, indicates that you are feeling helpless and trapped by some situation. You feel that you are being held back, either physically or mentally. Alternatively, the dream may also suggest that you are feeling disconnected in some aspect of your life - work, relationship or home life.
To dream that a plane crashes, suggests that you have set overly high and unrealistic goals for yourself. Your goals may be too high and are impossible to realize. You are in danger of having it come crashing down. Alternatively, your lack of confidence, self-defeating attitude and self-doubt toward the goals you have set for yourself is represented by the crashing airplane; you do not believe in your ability to attain those goals. Loss of power and uncertainty in achieving your goals are also signified.

Airport:
To see an airport in your dream, symbolizes birth (arrivals) and death (departures). If the airport is busy, then it signifies the desire for freedom, high ideals, ambition, and hopes. It is an indication that you are approaching a new departure in your life. Some new idea is taking off or is ready to take off. You may be experiencing a new relationship, new career path or new adventure.

Traveling:
To dream that you are traveling, represents the path toward your life goals. It also parallels your daily routine and how you are progressing along. Alternatively, it signifies a desire to escape. If your travels come to an end, then it symbolizes successful completion of your goals.

So.... to conclude... I guess that I am feeling stuck on my path toward goals in my life? Hmm... That would make sense on many levels. Weight loss, unsatisfaction in my career path, etc. Interesting stuff!
