Dream interpreted for a friend. Symbols explained in detail



1-24-20-THE SCAPEGOAT & 2-ROLES REVERSED

          I seem to be looking at an unfortunate boy with his mother.  He has dark curly hair, tall, young – looks wise reminds me of Alan I from yesterday.



          (ALAN IS A SYMBOL OF LEILA’S BOYFRIEND.  I WAS AT A PLACE OF BUSINESS WHERE THEY BOTH WORK, TALKING TO THEM.  THERE WAS A QUESTION LEILA & I DISCUSSED, AS WILL BE SEEN BELOW.

*OFTEN WHEN YOU SEE A PERSON IN A DREAM IT MIGHT NOT BE ABOUT THE PERSON AT ALL.  DON’T TAKE THINGS LITERALLY--USUALLY THEY ARE SYMBOLS, AS HERE, IT IS NOT ABOUT ALAN AT ALL.  ASSUME THAT MOST CHARACTERS YOU SEE IN DREAMS ARE SYMBOLS OF (1) ANOTHER PERSON (2) A PERSONALITY OR ATTITUDE OF A PERSON – YOURSELF OR ANOTHER.



HERE HE ONLY LOOKS THIS WAY TO TELL YOU:  IT’S ABOUT WHAT YOU DISCUSSED AT THIS PLACE.  BUT WHY DOESN’T HE LOOK LIKE HIMSELF?  BECAUSE YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS GUY—THE BF--CLOSE UP, NOT SURE HOW HE LOOKS.)



          His Mom is to the left, in a kind of large cubicle, in bed.  She’s handing something to ‘Alan’ & it’s not a big transaction, but within this framework I’m seeing their entire relationship.

          (THIS WOMAN BEING IN BED COULD MEAN SHE IS AT LEISURE – RELAXING, RESTING – BUT GIVING HIM SOMETHING TO DO SO IT COULD BE SHE’S PILING ON WORK FOR HIM BUT NOT ON HERSELF.
          IT COULD ALSO MEAN SHE MAKES HIM CARRY HER CROSS, GOES EASY ON HERSELF BUT HARD ON HIM.  MAKES HIM SUFFER MORE SO SHE WOULD SUFFER LESS.)



          It seems she’s picking on him, & I ask him is she?

          And he has two sisters, & they seem to be ‘picking on him’ also & it’s serious, not mild.  I see it’s a pattern, the mother & the two sisters are doing to him.

(*{what Tim’s (an old friend) Dad did to him when he was a child.  His Dad constantly put him down, criticized & belittled him, so badly that at the age of 12 he started to drink, taking the parent’s liquor – later he became a drug addict & remained one his entire life.  He explained its mentality to me.}*



THIS IS SHOWING A POWERFUL ANALOGY BETWEEN THIS BF & THE STORY OF HOW TIM BECAME A DRUG ADDICT.  IT IS THE TRAUMA THAT WAS REFERRED—THIS IS IT, THE WAY HE WAS TREATED BY A PARENT, PROBABLY THE MOTHER, & SIBLINGS, COULD BE SISTERS.)

          I say to Alan,

          “I see it now.  I understand.  You are their SCAPEGOAT.  Do you know what that means?  They blame everything on you.  I know, as I was the scapegoat in my family.  It goes like this, & I physically demonstrate:



          There is a cardboard box standing on something to my left.  I act like a person who has great nervous tension, I show my hands shaking.  To relieve the pressure of this anxiety, I take my fist & punch that cardboard box to my left.


          (IT’S A KNOWN PHENOMENON THAT FAMILIES SOMETIMES CHOOSE ONE CHILD ‘TO BE SACRIFICED’ SO THAT THE REST OF THE FAMILY ‘COULD HAVE A BETTER LIFE.’

          OF COURSE THIS IS SINFUL & DOES HARM TO THE CHILD.  THE TROUBLES, ANXIETIES OF THE FAMILY ARE SOMEHOW ‘DUMPED’ ON THE CHILD, THEY ARE BLAMED FOR EVERYTHING.  THEY ARE MISTREATED; MENTALLY, EMOTIONALLY OR PHYSICALLY ABUSED.  AND IT ISN’T JUST ONE PERSON OR ONE PARENT THAT DOES IT – IT BECOMES A CONSENSUS.  SOMETIMES NOT EVERYONE PARTICIPATES, BUT USUALLY THIS CHILD IS NOT PROTECTED BY ANY FAMILY MEMBER. 



          THEY COULD BE MADE TO DO MORE WORK THAN THE OTHERS & GIVE LESS PRIVILEGES.  THEY WOULD BE PUNISHED MORE – EVERY DAY WOULD BE PUNISHMENT BECAUSE THEY ARE DEPRIVED OF LOVE.  THIS IS THE ‘FAMILY SCAPEGOAT’ STORY.)


                    
          To my dismay, however, I see the front of the box, & sitting inside is an infant – it wasn’t hurt but I’m upset & say,

          “I’m so sorry – wow – I didn’t know a baby was sitting in there.”

          I was demonstrating to him how his Mom & sisters took their anxiety out on him, punching him mentally.



          (THE CHILD IS THE HELPLESS VICTIM, THIS SAYS.  THE BOX THE CHILD SITS IN IS SIMILAR IN DESIGN TO THE ‘BED CUBICLE’ THE MOTHER IS RESTING IN.  AS ALREADY STATED, IN THIS CASE, THE MOM TRAUMATIZED THE CHILD SO SHE WOULD BE ‘BETTER OFF.’  {BUT OF COURSE SUCH PEOPLE ARE NOT BETTER OFF SPIRITUALLY – THEY ARE GUILTY OF SIN.  & AS SOMEONE ONCE SAID TO ME ‘IT’S BETTER TO BE SINNED AGAINST THAN TO BE THE SINNER.’}) 



          This solved a mystery of how he was traumatized.  It shows a comparison between my friend, a drug addict who explained his case to me – as being applicable to this new person seen in the dream.

          (THIS REFERS TO LEILA’S BOYFRIEND, WHY HE’S AN ADDICT. YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT IT & SHE SAID SHE DIDN’T KNOW WHY.  Finis.
…………………………………………………………. 



          ANOTHER DREAM:  ROLES REVERSED

          EARLY there was a dream like this:  I see a paper-embossed design, large, almost white (it’s a thick soft cardboard) – which you would put on the wall for decoration.  There are no colors.  It’s sort of ‘antique’ or ‘old fashioned’ – the designs are mostly all flowers like daisies or asters, but puffed out.  It’s about 4’x4.5’



          Then appears a smaller version of this to its right, about 3.5’x4’ & its color is CREAM.  What surprises me it is the EXACT SAME DESIGN.  Not sure why I thought this design could not be DUPLICATED – because it was original & unusual, but here it is duplicated right before my eyes, & I tell everyone how amazed I am.

          These two papers are sort of ‘in the air’ by the end of my large table housing the old computer, in front of the window to the extreme right of this room.


          MEANING:

          ‘IN THE AIR’ WOULD BE SOMETHING ‘PENDING’ – LIKE WE THINK IT’S GOING TO BE, BUT IT HASN’T HAPPENED YET.  IT’S LIKE A QUESTION.

          DAISIES ARE ‘SHE LOVES ME-SHE LOVES ME NOT’.  SOMEONE IS THINKING DOES SOMEONE LOVE HIM OR HER.



          THE OLD-FASHIONED, ARCHAIC CAN REFER TO TWO THINGS:  (1) A RELATIONSHIP THAT’S BEEN GOING ON FOR A WHILE OR (2) THE IDEA OF MARRIAGE WHICH IS ‘OLD FASHIONED – ARCHAIC’ OR A TRADITION THAT’S BEEN AROUND A WHILE.



          I SEE IT NOW, THE PUZZLE HAS COME TOGETHER.  SOMETIMES, WHEN YOU SEE ONE OR MORE CLUES, THEY ARE WHAT I CALL ‘KEYS.’  THESE KEYS OPEN THE MEANING, IT ALL FALLS TOGETHER IN YOUR MIND.



          THESE ARE TWO PEOPLE WHO LOVE ONE ANOTHER.  FIRST, SHE CHASED HIM.  THAT’S THE BIG WHITE DESIGN WITH THE DAISIES THAT SAY, ‘HE LOVES ME, HE LOVES ME NOT,’ AS SHE IS IN CONSTANT ANXIETY TO THAT QUESTION.  SHE CHASES HIM BECAUSE SHE NEEDS REASSURANCE.



          BUT SUDDENLY, IT IS HE WHO IS CHASING HER, NOW HE NEEDS REASSURANCE.  HE IS PICKING THE DAILY PETALS ASKING THAT SAME QUESTION – DOES SHE OR DOES SHE NOT LOVE ME?

          THE WHITE & CREAM BOTH REFER TO MARRIAGE, UNION, OR SERIOUS LOVE—THE TYPE OF FEELING THAT MAKES TWO PEOPLE STAY TOGETHER.



          WHY IS THE ORIGINAL PAPER BIGGER?--  BECAUSE IT WENT ON FOR A LONGER TIME.  THE SMALLER PAPER, EXACT SAME DESIGN OR SITUATION, HAS BEGUN MORE RECENTLY, HAS NOT LASTED AS LONG OF A TIME OR TAKING UP AS MUCH ‘SPACE.’

          THE DREAMER IS STARTLED TO SEE THE MAN IN THE EXACT SAME POSITION SHE WAS IN BEFORE.



          THE POSITION OF THINGS CAN BE MEANINGFUL – WHERE YOU ARE – WHERE THE SYMBOLS ARE – WHERE OTHERS ARE.  SCRUTINIZE EACH SYMBOL WITH A FINE-TOOTH COMB.

          WHY BY THE LARGE TABLE OF THE OLD COMPUTER & IN FRONT OF THE WINDOW, DO THESE TWO ITEMS APPEAR?
YES IT’S BY THE WINDOW, BUT YOUR NEW COMPUTER IS THERE, IT’S RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE BIG-SCREENED NEW COMPUTER.  THIS UNDERSCORES:



          “IT WAS THE OLD WAY BEFORE (OLD COMPUTER) WHERE THE LADY CHASED HIM.  NOW IT’S A NEW SITUATION,  THE NEW COMPUTER – HE IS CHASING YOU; OLD SITUATION, NEW SITUATION.WE SEE THEM RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER, IN FACT, PART OF THE NEW PAPER IS COVERING OR OVER THE TOP OF THE OLD – THE NEW IS SUPPLANTING THE OLD, COVERING IT, TAKING THE PLACE OF IT.  finis
