Whatever is happening to the house is what you are experiencing happening to you. For example, if the plumbing is clogged it may be that your emotions (symbolized by the water in the pipes) are clogged. The different rooms in the house symbolize different aspects of oneself. Kitchen: nourishment; sustenance; creativity (as in ‘cooking up’ ideas). Hallway: a transition area. Bathroom: elimination of the old. Basement: your subconscious. Attic: high ideals and aspiration. Waking in a dark room represents exploring unknown parts of ourselves. Clutter indicates areas of our lives that we need to clean up or things that we need to discard. (Note which room is cluttered.)”-How to Use Dreams on Your Spiritual Journey, by Denise Linn

I hate the dreams that leave me shaken and creeped out. And Sil – I’ve been having dreams about my old houses, too! Odd.

(shrug) I’ve no idea what that could represent.

I recently had one wherein I came across a naked, skinny baby crawling and freezing in the snow. When I went to rescue it, its zombie-like mother came out of the home. Anyway, after awaking I was still trying to figure out how to warm this baby up and get it to safety, for the longest time … as if this scenario had really taken place or it was a problem I really had to solve. Weird.

Night before last I dreamed that Burt Reynolds was trying to choke me with a pink hair ribbon. Go figure! My husband informed me that Mr. Reynolds would probably be grateful that he was appearing in anyone’s dreams these days. So, there go – I guess that was my little random act of kindess!

I hate dreams that grab and won’t let go. When that happens to me I read, or watch an old, loved movie. Your garden seems to be flourishing, and you need Mr. Rusty to guard the plants.
