Just as the title says, tell me your most recent dream and I will perform a dream analysis of dubious distinction. Trust me I’m an expert.
I dreamt I was petting the kitties outside my hotel room I woke up happy then sad that I didn’t actually pet the kitties.
Analysis: You like kitties and they like you.
Yay!
I had a dream last night where I had to move my wedding ring from my left hand to my right hand, but I couldn’t because my right hand was swollen.
Analysis: You or someone very close to you, like parents, children or spouse is telling your brain something isn’t right physically. Something has changed, it is small and nearly imperceptible, but risks developing into something worth dealing with.
Get a physical.
I was having doggy-style sex with my mother but when she turned around to look at me it was my dad’s face!! /s
Analysis: Your body is telling you you need more outdoor exercise. For your health and socializing with new, like minded people.
Join a running club.
My dreams are so weird, like I’m fucking around with superpowers in a half lucid dreaming state. I always end up naked and trying to cover myself though 🤷
Analysis: You need a creative outlet. You have something extraordinary to share with the public and it is trying to breakthrough from the subconcious to the concious. You only need to find the right outlet and it will surface readily.
It is likely something done live to or with an audience, like improv, street busking, performance art, theatre, music or magic. Could be painting, but the kind you do live like charicature sketching or live street painting, not studio then sold in galleries.
You’re obviously suppressing a Protestant Work Ethic™
I dreamed my small elderly terrier jumped into a wide stream and sank to the bottom and didn’t come up as soon as I expected him to. I jumped in, found him tangled in water weeds at the bottom, and pulled him out. I held him upside down to let water stream out of him. He coughed up a silver-green frog.
My dog IRL hates water.
The circle of life is going to reveal itself. Someone close is either having a baby, or someone is going to say goodbye and leave an inheritance. Maybe both. Could be the same person, but not neccessarily.
A rich white person with green eyes will approach you and your dog on your walk, they will ask to pet your dog. Do not let them.
I only remember the bit where Don Rickles overcharged me for an omlette.
Analysis: Some part of you is very disatisfied with an aspect or part of you. Could be physical, mental, personality, habit, almost anything. The key is you don’t fully accept yourself as you are.
Hey why not, I’ll bite.
I’m walking through the woods next to a creek in a place I used to go as a kid. It’s deep in the woods, there’s not supposed to be anything around. I come across a porta potty tipped over on its side and half covered by brush. Weird, what the hell is this doing out here? I keep walking and start coming across abandoned digging equipment with badging on it that shows it belongs to the federal government. Everything is overgrown and no one is around, but it shouldn’t be here and I’m getting this really bad feeling because it’s been years since I was here but none of this stuff was here then and what was the government doing in the woods here, it’s just woods? I cross the creek and am walking on the other side, still next to it but up on a hill a little bit, still in the woods. The creek is gentle and shallow, only a few feet deep. I keep walking, and in the middle of the creek is a huge square, about 10 feet by 10 feet, with metal sides that are just high enough to keep the water from going into it. The entire bottom is a grate, and I can see from where I am at that it’s designed to raise up and below there’s a circular staircase going deep into the ground. Suddenly the bad feeling I have turns into pure terror. This is what the digging equipment was for, but what the hell did they do? Why is there a staircase in the middle of the creek? Where does it go? Why is it in the middle of these woods, where there’s not even a road or even a proper path anywhere close, and why not have it next to the creek instead of in the creek where it would flood anytime it rained and the water level rose? Part of me wants to go over and look down the staircase, and the other part of me wants to run away, because even though it looks abandoned, it just feels wrong and I’m so terrified for some reason. The dream ended with me wading through the creek to stand over the grate looking down the staircase as it winded down into the dark. I couldn’t see the bottom but I could hear machinery far below.
What you are describing sounds like caissons construction. Support pillars that go into water to support things like bridges or even offshore wind turbines. But that isn’t what your dream is about.
Analysis: You are subconciously aware on some level that something has violated what you consider sacred. You feel violated, angry and anxious over where this may lead. Whoever or whatever has transgressed you with the profane is even more outrage inducing because whatever was gained by the offender(s), is far outweighed by what they too lost. It’s senseless, reckless wanton destruction of what you hold most dear.
You are trying to process a response, but haven’t done so yet. Fight, flight, enlist allies? You don’t yet know what’s possible, let alone optimal.
I was on a space station that looked remarkably like cubicle hell working with a whole bunch of people I didn’t know, and we were all terrified to even look at each other because of a social or informational plague that had wiped out a large swathe of humanity where if you ever got to know someone well, something vague and horrible would happen to both parties. We were there together to find either the cause or the cure, but of course were under tight restrictions to avoid getting to know each other at all and were all following directions emitted by a PA system with a droning voice telling us what to do.
I’ve never worked in cubicle hell. I love my job and have a healthy social life.
Analysis: You are disatisfied with how something around you is run at the governance level. No clue as to what, but it could be anything. From as big as democracy in your country (big theme these days), or how management is structured at work to how your household is run, or even how your circle of friends naturally form a pecking order and make decisions as a group.
You understand your limitations of effecting change, but would benefit from the effort and finding like minded allies.
I was copying lines into a red composition book from something I had already typed into a computer, I would get about 3 lines down before noticing that I had skipped a couple lines down from where I was copying and had to erase it absolutely perfectly, not sure how I knew but the goal was to replicate the text perfectly so it would appear to have been written that way on the first go.
A memory of something special and cherished is fading away because you didn’t relive and remember it enough when it was fresh. You took the moment for granted, and its almost gone. Its too late to reinforce and preserve the memory, because its so faded, you’ll just invent a cheap, innacurate copy that loses something important.
If there is a lesson here, reflect more often on your great moments.
I got a on a train cart for some reason with some random dude and a group of girls were already on it playing video games. They obviously did not want us there so the dude broke out some kinda console (I think it changed depending on the game we were playing) and we all played video games. Twords the end of the dream I ended up playing minecraft with one of the girls but it was like xbox 360 console minecraft
A nice change of pace from the normal “your back in your childhood home being abused but its everyone you know currently instead”
I can only analyse one dream at a time.
Analysis: You have something you want to share with others, but you don’t think anyone wants to hear it. You already understand the solution is to find people with similar interests and explore it together.
I walked into an office that I have never seen before, but felt that I worked there. Saw many familiar faces, former coworkers from various companies.
We were being raided by who I would assume was the FBI. Papers are being dug through, people are getting interrogated and subsequently arrested.
No one interrogated me. No one was touching my desk. Soon, the office was empty: just me. The dream ended with me sitting down at my desk, which matched my real life desk, and unlocking my computer. Pulled up my Notepad++ todo list but I couldn’t read the text.
It was a vivid dream, but not a lucid dream. Just thought, “wtf was all that about?”
Analysis: You have a subconcious awareness that someone has a crush or unspoken affection for you. For some unknown reason(s), you doubt your instincts, but can’t justify the doubt. The admirer is real. The questions are “why the doubt?”, and “how to make a connection?”
Subconscious? Man, Ladies Love Cool-Expletivedeleted. LL Cool E.
There are four women right now I know that I could hit up and would drop everything to lock me in. Not meaning to sound like a braggart, but you cannot read the tone of my voice, and you cannot hear the expression of my face, and you cannot feel my energy without shaking my hand.
I have a date with a fifth on Wednesday.
For the record, I am not a slut. I am just a silly flirt who doesn’t have an issue getting a date.
However, text is the worst form of communication. Some dude on here accused me of being sweaty; the conversation was inconsequential to me.
I’m like the Dude from the Big Lebowski.
But there is a bartender who was very impressed by the pictures of the camper I am buying and was joking about living with me. Really cute girl, but way too young and I know she currently has a boyfriend. I assume she was just joking around.
But I will show it to her when I get it in a couple of months. non-sexual I am old enough to be her father.
I dreamt about a new roundabout where I thought a roundabout would fix some problems with traffic.
The roundabout was a temporary test setup which will probably remain a temporary test setup for 10 years.
The lack of emotional context is very telling.
Analysis: You have latent and unaddressed traffic issues and you are pragmatic by nature.
As Freud might have once thought “Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.”
I went to take a shower and in my shower there was a big sturdy spider web with 4-6 big/adult cockroaches suspended in it. I got a small kitchen knife and stabbed the roaches with it. Once I killed them all I woke up.
I have had problems with roaches in that shower before. Not an infestation, but they would find their way up through the drain every once in a while. And I’m pretty afraid of them. The small kitchen knife was a little paring/peeling knife that I bought recently.
I appreciated that there was a spider who was able to catch the roaches, but worried that there were so many of them in the first place.Please analyze this. Thank you.
This is one of the most difficult yet. I’m afraid I might really screw this one up, but I’ll try my best.
Analysis:
Hypothesis 1 - you might just be processing irrational, but quite common and natural fears of insects. If so, you can take this dream at face value. They are terrifying to you and persistent, so your subconcious is trying to grapple with the inevitability of the next encounter. This may be disapointing to read, but dream analysis has so much connection to strong emotions, that I’d estimate this as 80% most likely. No hidden meaning or subtle imagery leading to insight. Bugs creep you out and this dream is like an immune reaction between the rational harmless nature of them, and the irrational involuntary fearful reaction. It’s not entirely unlike PTSD suffering moments of reliving trauma, just at the scale of creepy bugs.
However, there is a chance I’m misinterpreting this because of all the strong emotions, fear can be one of the trickiest to interpret. Irrational fears are even more difficult, and instinctive irrational fears like phobias, the most difficult to interpret of all. I’d estimate a 20% chance of the following alternative hypothesis. Your description contains subtle clues that open up this small possibility.
Hypothesis 2:
Something or someone is confronting you. Not just an obstacle, but the possibility of open conflict. What was once subtle and understated, now risks tearing at the seams. Your opponent, is neither malevolent, nor holding a personal grudge, but you are in their way, and they will boot stomp you if they have to.
You on the other hand are just doing what you beleive is right and expected of you. You are following the rules and confident in your position. Neither help nor hindrance is intended to your opponent and you see yourself as neutral, but you are blocking them from achieving something important to them.
An alarm is going off in your head that something bad is going to happen to you if this can’t be resolved. You haven’t decided what to do about it, but you have options to consider. Capitulate and withdraw your obstruction, but suffer a wound to your integrity. You could keep your obstruction intact and help your opponent overcome your barrier - as close to a win win as you can get, but those around you two may perceive this as collusion. You could stand your ground as is, but you understand you will suffer the other’s wrath and make an enemy in the process. Other possibilities exist, like going on the attack, but the one thing you understand is there is no perfect choice. No matter what you do, you will have positive and negative outcomes, but you are grateful you have the choice to pick your poison and choose the lesser of two evils.
Thanks for the writeup. I think the first answer is true.

Hatsune Miku wanted a haircut
Analysis: You need to get out more.
I don’t remember most but sometimes I manage to write them down. This was a scary one:
I was looking through a smart home camera on my phone that was pointing at me sitting in bed*. But soon I noticed this wasn’t actually me in the picture and it wasn’t a live feed, it was a recording… Who was that?? Then the recording ended and it switch to the actual live feed of me. But someone was lying on the floor next to my bed, only visible in the feed. I jumped up and ran to the camera to get it. I held it closer and realized it was someone I knew back then from school who committed suicide. He started screaming at me and I woke up.
* no I don’t have any creepy bedroom cameras in real life!
I see this one clearly.
As you grow and mature, you realize the vastness in the possibilities of how you act, or react to events in your life. Old you would have considered a relatively limited set of possible options as a response to all of life’s situations, big and small alike.
Equally, as your mind expands to new possibilities within you, you see a broader set of threats and opportunities that the world presents to you trhan you once did.
The fear you are feeling is because your understanding of your place in the world and the world itself has been growing enourmously as of late. It’s a bigger, richer, more dangerous world than you once thought and your dreams are subconciously processing the new possibilities where the stakes, risks and rewards are much higher that you realized.
You haven’t fully come to terms with this. You were comfortable as your old self, but you also realize that there is no going back. The richer more dangerous world was always there, and your being previously unaware of it wasn’t any sort of protection. The Fangs and Treasure chests were always there, and you accept this. What you are still dealing with is your self-image or identity. Who do you choose to be that is capable of navigating this more adventurous and perilous journey. You are growing in to your new you, but the process is incomplete and you still have the opportunity to shape yourself into what you want to face the future.
This truly is a shitty analysis, thanks!
Nothing but the finest shit for my fellow Lemmy users.
