Each month Pamela offers a dream interpretation for your dreams! This month’s column takes a look at where skin is peeling off and time machines are taking us to the past. If you haven’t got a clue to what I am talking about, read on… Dream
The only thing I remember about the dream is that I was peeling the skin off of my face from a sunburn. The skin was coming off in large portions so I took the skin and weaved it into a beanie type cap that would fit on top of the head. I offered the beanie to a friend who seemed reluctant to accept it after learning what it was made of. I’m curious as to what is the dream interpretation for this very weird dream.Interpretation What an interesting dream that has amazing symbolism! The first symbol I am getting is the peeling of the skin, it is a shedding (like a snake would) which reminds me of a transformation. The sunburn has two meanings. The first is too much exposure to something that is good in moderation but harmful in excess. The second meaning is being burned by something or someone. The good news is the symbolism of the skin coming off and being woven into a beanie cap. Your dream is showing you that you have let go big time of that important lesson because of the large portions of skin coming off of you! The weaving of the cap is really symbolic for you have learned that lesson well because it is in your head aka “Thinking Cap.” Your offering of the cap to a friend is spreading the knowledge. Unfortunately, not everyone is ready to hear it, as your friend’s reluctance showed. Isn’t that awesome! I’m sure you know what the lesson is and how it transformed you. I hope this dream interpretation makes sense to you. Dream
I had a dream that my husband and I met this doctor that created a time travel machine and his wife had time traveled back to a year in the 1860s. The doctor couldn’t figure out how to get her back as he couldn’t run the machine and time travel himself, so we volunteered to help him. Then, somehow my ex-husband, Sean, showed up in the dream as having already tried to help out the doctor and time travel back. Now they were both back in that time and hadn’t returned. I saw the indent in the floor where Sean had laid down and appeared to time travel from. I laid down in the same spot with my hands over my head holding onto my husband’s hands. We started the time travel process and I started to see where I was going. I freaked out and had him bring me back. I settled down and tried again after having my husband promise to not let go of me. My left hand started to slip out of his and I lost my grip and was gone. I ended up in a large body of water (felt like the ocean – water wasn’t clear, but not muddy), to my left were two round floatation devices like a baby would put on their arms and I put them on. I began to float to the shore where I saw a small town and felt the doctor’s wife might be. When I saw her, I immediately recognized her as the doctor’s wife. I approached her and told her who I was and why I was there. She was dressed in period clothing and had created/set up an open room school and got me outfitted in clothing so I wouldn’t stand out. I told her we needed to leave. She informed me there was no way back, that she had spent years trying to find it but couldn’t. I would ask about certain things when I met people and she would say, “Oh that hasn’t been invented yet.” I never did find my ex-husband and woke up from the dream before I found my way back.Interpretation I have always been fascinated with time travel and love books and movies with this theme. Thank you for sending this dream. This dream has many different themes that I will go over. What is important is what theme that stands out for you. Please pay attention to how you feel when you read each interpretation.
- The dream could be showing bits and pieces of a past life. Perhaps you and your ex-husband were the doctor and his wife?
- The doctor looking for is wife could be symbolic for the male side of you looking to reunite with the female side.
- Perhaps, you desire to go back in time and fix something in your past?
- Could the doctor’s wife and your ex-husband be symbolic for another couple that you would like to help? How about them being a representation of a man and a woman that you wish you had helped in your past or have unresolved issues with?
- The part where you freaked out about going to the past and made your husband promise to hold on to you, could represent something you need to do on your own that you are afraid of.
- There could be a fear of losing your husband or going back to past behaviors?
- The part where you lay in the same spot as your ex-husband and lost your husband’s grip could be showing you not to go back into past relationship behaviors and issues. Or you need to resolve and forgive issues from the past that could interfere with your relationship. The fact that you never found your ex-husband in the dream is a clear sign that the relationship is over.
- When you land in water, there was protection there with the arm floats and you were carried to land. I am interpreting that whatever process or issues you need to go through and/or heal, you are safe. Water is for emotions, so allow the emotions to come and go, because you will always come back to self. That is shown by the symbolism of land.
- The part of the dream of you changing to that era’s clothing shows that someone around you might not accept you for your uniqueness.
- Lastly, the end of the dream shows how you could feel stuck somewhere and trying to get out. And you need to find new ways of doing things.
