I analyze a dream for a friend. He finally figures it out.
I am with a young man, Atilla. We seem to be in love but there is some sort
of problem – he absents himself a lot.
One day I see this vision:
A chair that seems to be made of wood & reeds (this is so vague it
might not mean anything, but if it’s true then it’s the chair in my apt
kitchen)
The male is sitting in the chair & on the bottom of it is
a large white feather, that seems kind of ‘worn’, the size you would get from
the wing of a goose, maybe 10”, & it hangs straight down from the chair.
(THIS WHITE FEATHER MEANS ‘SURRENDER’ *LIKE A WHITE FLAG*
& WHAT HAS SURRENDERED IS HIS PENIS, OR THE FACT THAT HE ISN’T GOING TO
HAVE SEX WITH THE DREAMER. HE SAYS ‘I
GIVE UP.’ WHAT DOES HE GIVE UP? TRYING TO HAVE SEX WITH THE LADY, TRYING TO
GET HER TO ‘GIVE IN’ BUT NOT GIVING HER WHAT SHE WANTS - *A RELATIONSHIP.*
INDEED
THE WAY THE CHAIR IS MADE IS APROPOS:
WOOD & REEDS, ESPECIALLY THE REEDS, WHICH ARE STRAW.
STRAW
IS *INSUBSTANTIAL,* DOES NOT LAST. STRAW
IS HOW HE WANTED THE AFFAIR – INSUBSTANTIAL, FLY BY NIGHT, SEX ONLY – NO PERMANENCE.)
Atilla now comes home.
He has wood in front of him, he’s smiling as he’s figured something
out. The wood is beautiful. It’s painted white – the pieces of wood are
these thick square planks like you use for columns or corners of a house,
inside is blonde like Oak. He has a few
of these planks & they are all separate but now he puts them together –
they fit like a puzzle & form the basis of a bed (the bottom & sides). It’s a powerful bed made of these 8” diameter
beams, it has some sort of border to it.
I think he’s smiling because it all fits together so perfectly; he has
his eyes on the bed, nowhere else, not looking at me.
(ATILLA FINALLY FIGURED OUT WHY BONNY REFUSED TO CONTINUE
HAVING SEX WITH HIM. SHE WANTS A
RELATIONSHIP.
HE SEES ‘THE PIECES OF THE PUZZLE’ & THEY ALL FIT. THE THICK PLANKS ARE COLUMNS AS WOULD HOLD UP
A PORCH, THE CORNERS OF A HOUSE & SUCH.
THIS SAYS *PERMANENCE,* NOT LIKE STRAW WHICH THE WIND BLOWS AWAY.
THESE PIECES OF WOOD ALL FIT TOGETHER LIKE THE THOUGHTS IN
HIS MIND, THEY FORM A BED, THEY ARE WHITE.
SHE DOESN’T WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH HIM ANY MORE BECAUSE SHE WANTS A
RELATIONSHIP – WHITE LIKE MARRIAGE.
THIS MAKES HIM SMILE BECAUSE IT ENDS THE PUZZLE THAT
TORMENTED HIM – WHY DID SHE ABSENT HERSELF?
IT PLEASES HIM BECAUSE HE THEN SEES SHE STILL LOVES HIM, SHE WANTS MARRIAGE *& WITH IT GOES
SEX*. HE’S SMILING BECAUSE THIS IDEA
MAKES HIM HAPPY – HE WANTS MARRIAGE WITH HER ALSO. IF HE DIDN’T LOVE HER, THIS THOUGHT WOULD NOT
MAKE HIM SMILE.)
I’m standing there & become disgruntled. Before, I was alright, now I’m not. I say to him,
“I know why YOU’VE BEEN ABSENT. YOU’VE OBVIOUSLY BEEN DOING SEX TO *HER*”.
(THIS IS PART OF THE PUZZLE:
HE IS WITH ANOTHER WOMAN. HE SEES
THAT THE DREAMER IS DISGRUNTLED BY THIS, OBVIOUSLY. ABSENT WITH HER BUT PRESENT WITH
ANOTHER. HE SEES THAT IS THE BASIS OF
HER UNHAPPINESS & HER ABSENTEEISM.)
I seem to look like this:
Smooth pretty hair, to the shoulders, but all curved forward, the bangs
& bottom of the hair. There is a
blue feather-shaped ornament hanging from my temple, my dress is like an
old-fashioned Empire-style neckline, a soft color, maybe off-white, draped to
the floor, the appearance artistic…….finis
(THE ‘I’ PORTRAYS A TRADITIONAL WOMAN, RATHER DEMURE, THE
TYPE OF ROLE AS PICTURED IN GREAT ART, WHERE THE WOMAN IS SEEN AS A ROMANTIC
FIGURE, THE OBJECT OF LOVE, NOT A WOMAN TO USE AS A WHORE, TROLLOP OR *SECOND
HAND ROSE.*
SUCH A WOMAN WOULD SEEK TO BE LOVED IN MARRIAGE, IS MADE
UNHAPPY BY HIS OTHER RELATIONSHIP--WILL NOT BE SECOND FIDDLE TO HER.)

ReplyDeleteAn interesting, if perhaps a bit puzzling, dream. It came out very well, and the artwork goes well with it too.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work,
