+Divulge Your Dreams

Last night I woke up in a cold sweat after a confusing dream that had made my brain thrust itself and my body awake. I dreamt that I was a ghost, I tried to talk to people but no one could hear or see me. I screamed and jumped but I wasn’t there. A select few people could feel my presence and tried to communicate with me. One boy whom I had only met once in my life could see and hear me, I was shocked and thrilled. They all disappeared in that moment and I was now in a forest. I then thought to myself, “I’m dead, that means I can finally see Chandler again.” (Chandler was a friend of mine and an ex-boyfriend who committed suicide a few months ago) I sprinted through the forest looking for him then came to a sudden stop. I looked down at my feet where a snake was outstretched across my toes. I woke up after the snake appeared to look at me and lunge forward towards my face.

“To see your own ghost in your dream symbolizes aspects of yourself that you fear. This may involve a painful memory, guilt, or some repressed thoughts. Or you may be afraid of death and dying. Alternatively, ghosts are representative of something that is no longer obtainable or within reach. It indicates that you are feeling disconnected from life and society. Try to figure out what the ghosts wants or what it is looking for. The dream may also be a calling for you to move on and abandon your outdated modes of thinking and behavior.”

“To dream that you are lost in a forest indicates that you are searching through your unconscious for a better understanding of yourself.”

“To see the ghost of a dead friend/relative in your dream suggests guilt and regrets concerning the past relationships with that particular person.”

“To see a snake or be bitten by one in your dream signifies hidden fears and worries that are threatening you.  Your dream may be alerting you to something in your waking life that you are not aware of or that has not yet surfaced. The snake may also refer to a person around you who is callous, ruthless, and can't be trusted. As a positive symbol, snakes represent healing, transformation, knowledge and wisdom. It is indicative of self-renewal and positive change.”

My Ghost: Before I went to sleep I was speaking to my friend about how I was trying to change into a better person, I didn’t like the horrible kid I was and I wanted to get rid of the evil inside of myself.

Forest: My mother asked me if I was trying to just fit in with the cheerleaders now, my reply was that I didn’t know what I was trying to do or who I was trying to be. I told her I really didn’t know who I was.

Chandler’s Ghost: The last time me and Chandler spoke it was a fight that I had started. I called him all sorts of awful names and calling him out on stupid stuff and we hadn’t spoken to each other for two years when I found out he committed suicide on the dreadful Monday morning of February 21, 2011.

Snake: I am changing myself in a positive way, have learned of some backstabbing friends, and it might be warning me of something coming my way.
