Dreaming -- July 3, 2006
I'm in Victoria, and I'm trying to find the Tax Department. It is raining and I am getting soaked. A tall, fat, blond man in a beige suit says he will help me, but the more he sorts through my papers the more muddled up they get, and his help turns into a terrible hindrance. I am getting very anxious and tell him i will just "be on my way", but he does not want to let me go. Then we are in a sort of enclosed yard, and we are joined by a young woman with dark hair. She seems very sinister and I try to get away, but they seem to have me captive. She says she wants to eat my pancreas. I become greatly fearful and then she pinches me really hard on both my hips -- at first i am very frightened -- and she pinches me again and it is very painful, but then i realized that is just what she wants, she wants me to be frightened. She seems to gain strength from my fears -- so i tell myself to relax, to flow with the pain, to embrace my impending doom -- and as i do so, she looses her power over me, and they both seem to disolve - then i wake up, but the dream has left me feeling very disturbed.

I don't blame U--I hate dreams like that!
I have a reoccurring dream that makes me feel edgy all day....
:o
Sometimes I'm glad I seldom have dreams I remember...
Other times I wonder what I'm dreaming that I don't want to remember!
Double edged swords...like so much of life.
I can't imagine what any of it means, but I'm thinking of you!

That's a dream that could be open to interpretation. Are there dark-haired women who put pressure on you?
hi Jean-Luc, yes, well, maybe, that was after income tax time i still had not filed mine, or maybe i had just filed it, and last year my friend helped me file, but i had just had a fight with her so maybe there was some anxiety around that?
hi alan; i think it is quite common that men do not remember their dreams...hmmmmm? i wonder if that is significant...i love to dream, but last night i had another really weird dream, which kind of made sence.
hi starbender, thanks for visiting my blog...yeah, i hate those recurring dreams, i used to have one up until about 10 years ago, but i think whatever the underlying issue was is now resolved.
Dear PJ
It is amazing the power fear can have on us - asleep or awake...
Often I find myself in it's grips and if I give it as serious thought - as you did in the dream - the "paralysis" immediately becomes "manageable" action... just a slight shift in thought!
Hope you are feeling better and were able to locate the source of the anxiety that played out fro resolution that night...
Joy to you

yep, you are so right...and i read recently in "emotional Intelligence" the importance of journalizing and putting down in writing our fears...so i think that by posting a Blog comment about it might have helped to dissipate it somewhat;- well, also, actually FILING my tax return might have had something to do riddding me of the anxiety as well!! HAH HAH! - well, thanks for stopping by "angeldust"
