My dream
I was at a party when a man with bad energy came in and pointed a gun at me. I was scared because I wanted to live and not die. He shot me in the head. I couldn’t believe I was dead because I still felt alive. I went up to people I knew but they didn’t see me even though I talked to them lovingly while gently touching them.
I went over to the two cats at the coffee table, one was orange. I petted the other one and to my joy I was able to understand what the orange cat was saying. Two men went by me and to my surprise they could see me. “You can see me?” One of them responded, “We are dead too.” I instantly got that they were a part of the gang ran by the man who shot me and he had killed them also. I got a wave of a bad energy. They tried to stop me, but I pushed my way by them and left the house.
I was walking down the street when I saw a golden retriever coming towards me. I bent down to pet him which he was happy to accept. I was disappointed that I couldn’t communicate with him like I did with the cats.
I went around a corner and saw three huge beautiful Goddesses. The energy was incredible, so loving and beautiful. I was in awe, I knew this is where I belonged and was a part of. As I got closer, more women approached from a different direction. And a woman, wearing a long, flowing gown was dancing very gracefully. I stood in front of the Goddesses. I had so many questions, but knew I needed to wait for my questions to be answered.
Interpretation
There are people who think that if you die in a dream, for example fall off a cliff and hit the bottom that you will die in real life from the shock. I can’t help but wonder how they would truly know that if the person did die that way, unless a medium told them. This is the second dream that I have been shot in the head and obviously the shock did not kill me. Believe me it is very frightening getting shot in the head in a dream. My first experience was in 1992. In the 1992 dream – the planet was over populated and would kill you if your social security number was called. They called my number, I told the man with the gun that I didn’t want to die. He responded, “You have no choice, turn around so I can shoot you.” I told him no, to shoot me while I was looking at him. He shot me in the head but I didn’t die. That dream was a symbolic precognitive dream because about six months later I went through a major transformation leaving the so-called comfort of a mainstream job to start my non-mainstream business.
In my recent dream where I got shot in the head and died is symbolic for the death of an old way and the birth of the new. At this time, I am changing my direction in my personal practice and undergoing a personal transformation because of it. The people who could not see me, although I care about, represents that some people will not get nor be ready for this work. The two bad energy men represent a couple of clients that I had to make boundaries with and let go of in order to move down my path.
The cat and the dog could mean a couple of things. I love dogs but cats are my heart, my soul mates. It is much easier for me to relate and understand cats over dogs. Cats also represent mystery, intuition, and independence. Orange is the color of the second chakra which is intuition, creativity, and sexuality. Dogs represent unconditional love, it is most interesting in this dream because love is more of a feeling than verbal communication.
The three Goddesses could represent the maiden, mother, and crone. At the age of fifty I am getting closer to being a crone. Yay, wise woman! Because I came from a different direction than the other ladies, it could mean working with groups of women. Another interpretation is I am going into a higher level of female spirituality and have so much to learn. Or it could mean all three, which feels right to me.
Ruthie’s Dream
I dreamed I ran into a very upstanding black man I used to work with and he looked like hell. I asked some people what was wrong, they said he was on drugs, drinking and about to lose his job. I was stunned and said that doesn’t sound like him. He had always been hardworking and dedicated. I said I will talk to his boss, the dept head, Mike to see if I can help so that he won’t lose his job, and wait until he can get some help. Lo and behold, I ran into my brother who has never been in my dreams. I said, what are you doing here? He said let me talk to the boss maybe I can help. Well I looked at him like he was the crazy person that he is and kept walking.
Well, being the little detective that I am, I saw his wife sleeping with another man but they didn’t see me. In my dream he had three daughters. I told the wife and children if there is anything I can do let me know. The next day the youngest daughter came to my apartment and we were putting dishes in the dishwasher. The daughter was very cute.
I remember the wife telling the husband Terri that they would work things out, since he found out. I went to their place one day, he and the whole family were there. They gave me some money to pick up a few items from the grocery store.
I caught the wife and guy again but they didn’t see me as the last time. I never mentioned to anyone that I knew but was so disgusted.
When I woke up this morning the dream was so vivid and I felt a little exhausted.
Interpretation
Before I even opened your email, I knew the dream was going to be doozy and it was.
My guides are saying it is a process. You are the best interpreter of your dreams. Let me go through it piece by piece, see if it feels rights. It could trigger an inner deeper meaning for you.
The black man represents the bad/dark side of men. He looked like he was doing so well to the outside world. But in reality he is doing poorly. That part represents you not trusting men because of what happened in the past when a man seemed really good but wasn’t.
The savior in you wanted to fix everything and was on your way to do so, when you ran into your brother. The brother to me represents men that you have known throughout your life, how some of them were trying to control how to do something, when you were on your way to accomplish it. The fact that you looked at him like he is crazy and walked away, is a very good sign. It means that you are not going to be around those types anymore.
The part where she was cheating on her husband represents married people cheating and your distrust in couples being faithful to one another.
Where you and the youngest daughter are washing dishes – the girl represents your inner child. You and your inner child are in the process of doing inner cleaning. This is a very good thing! That would be a good meditation to do with your inner child.
The part where you go to the store for them is your desire to be around a family. But catching them again means that you have fears about being with a dishonest man.
This was a powerful dream that shows you are in the process of healing this, I know it is not comfortable but so worth it. I would also suggested going back into the dream in a meditation and confronting some of the characters.
Till we meet again in the dream time. If you have any dream that you would like to have interpreted, please send an email to
