			<description>&#60;p&#62;I was just woke up by this dream... It started out that I was in a van with a few people and yes me and the person sitting beside me had a little anger between up(like when siblings have a fight in a car trip).  Well our driver started acting strange and doing strange things....  The as he was driving became a kinda Devil, and telling us all our darkest fears, and wile driving he tryed to rape the girl in the from seat beside him... We fight him off of her and he crashes into a few other cars and runs us off a bridge.  That when he is trying to grab me and the other 2 people in the van as we try to break out of the car that sinking into deep water.  To make him let me go i asked God to forgive me for everything i done wrong.  Wll after that i bust out the window and grab the other 2 people out of the van and we swim to the bank... After that we are walking and look over to see all the trouble the crash had made and thats when a helicopter blade is flying to us and cuts someone ealses head off as we got out of the way... The the girl I was having the fight with earlyer in the van falls down the clift side, and busted her head open and landed face down in the water... Time went on and my mother found us and took me and the other guy to what she called a safe house, thats when I saw the driver and both girls trying to get in and kill me and the other guy.  They would show up on the TV, Ipads, Iphome and even if we picked up the phones saying they were going to get us and show us how it felt to be dead.  Well I looked out the window and saw one of the girls Dancing outside the window in a Blue Sunday Dress and Blue Hat with Flowers on it.  Then she looked up and screamed, thats when they glass shardered and my mom covered me and we were both missed from the glass. Thats when we went to find the other guy that was with us to see how we could end the pain..... Thats when I woke up. O yeah and all of this was in color and so real..... Am i crazy or can anyone tell me whats going on

			<description>&#60;p&#62;First of all, any dream with a warning should be taken seriously and not be ignored.  Unfortunately, it is not immediately obvious why the dreamer was warned.  But, a closer look at the dream may give us a hint.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Before I get into the actual dream, I just wanted to let the dreamer know that strange, nightmarish dreams can sometimes have a physical cause.  Some possible causes would be medication or drugs (legal or illegal).  Additionally, Edgar Cayce stated that a spinal injury can cause nightmares.  Although not common, they are possible causes. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;First of all, having lucid dreams is usually a good sign. It is typically an indication that the dreamer has reached a certain stage of development.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;As for the dream itself –&#60;br /&#62;
My guess is that you did not actually talk to the devil or, at least, not the devil as many of us think of the devil.  It may have been some spirit or perhaps a part of your unconscious.    &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;As you wrote, this dream is a paradox.  The devil, who is in heaven, is usually associated with hell or, more generically, with the underworld.  In the underworld sense, the devil is less a personification of evil and is more a ruler of this underworld and is, therefore, a ruler of the dead.  Thus, talking to the ruler of the dead about seeing your dead parents makes sense.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;But, this lower realm also has a symbolic meaning.  In psychology (especially Jungian psychology), it can represent the lower level of the psyche.  This lower realm would be the unconscious.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;However, the shaman also visits the lower world.  Thus, this dream may also have something to do with shamanism. &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;A little aside about heaven and hell –&#60;br /&#62;
Do heaven and hell exist?  Are they human concepts that have nothing to do with reality?  Or, are they real places that people go to when they die.  Edgar Cayce describes one of his trance-like states where he sees the hellish and the heavenly.  &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.near-death.com/experiences/cayce01.html&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://www.near-death.com/experiences/cayce01.html&#60;/a&#62; &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Back to the dream --&#60;br /&#62;
The devil tells the dreamer that he can see his parents (assuming that you are a guy.)  But, then you are tied to a tree and your dogs started eating you alive.  This whole scene certainly comes across as being both very frightening and very puzzling.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;A little aside about the sequence of events in our dreams –&#60;br /&#62;
The sequence of events in our dreams is often important.  This is because, in the logic of our dreams, one event can cause the next.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Back to the dream –&#60;br /&#62;
The dreamer is tied to a tree and eaten by his dogs because he wants to see his parents.  This is the price that the dreamer must pay to see his parents.  The dogs do not represent your actual dogs but are rather symbols of the mythological dog or dogs that guard the entrance to the underworld.  The most famous canine guardian is the three headed Cerberus.  BTW -- these dream dogs may actually be real spirits that show themselves as dogs.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;However, there are other canine guardians of the underworld beside Cerberus.  “There is a curious connection between dogs and travel to the realm of the dead. It can be found particularly in Indo-European mythologies, although it also occurs in Egypt, Siberia, and north America. According to the Vedic mythology of ancient India, for instance, the deceased must pass by the four-eyed dogs of Yama, king of the dead; and Greek mythology tells of the dog Kerberos [also spelled Cerberus], popularly endowed with three heads, who watches the entrance to Hades. Mention must also be made of the white, red-eared hounds of Celtic myth. But the idea of the underworld watchdog appears to have reached its fullest, and most complex expression among the Germanic peoples.”  &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.primitivism.com/hellhounds.htm&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://www.primitivism.com/hellhounds.htm&#60;/a&#62;   &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;But what is the meaning of your being tied to a tree?  In the dreams that I have looked at, there are several possible meanings for a tree.  However, in this dream, I believe that the tree refers to the dreamer’s spinal cord.  Thus, the dreamer’s being tied to the tree means that the dreamer is unable to leave his physical body via the silver cord.  &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.near-death.com/experiences/research12.html&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://www.near-death.com/experiences/research12.html&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;So, we now have a good feel for the meaning of your parent’s warning.  They realized that what you would have to go through if you tried to visit them.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Hope this helps.

			<description>&#60;p&#62;Lately, I've been having these lucid dreams. Four days ago, I had a dream where I was discussing seeing my deceased parents in heaven to the devil. He said he would, but then he tied me to a tree and my dogs suddenly started eating me alive. I woke up, and had various bite marks and scratches on my collarbone and back. I'll skip the lesser-death dreams, and come to last night. I dreamt that I was being murdered over, and over, and over again in the same dream. I went to heaven, and was murdered in heaven, and I was in a paradox. In these paradoxes, I would hear my parents telling me to leave, or watch out, beware. I don't know what this means, but it would be nice if you all could help. Thank You.

			<description>&#60;p&#62;The following dream is not my dream but was posted by Hanood.  For some reason, I am unable to post in the Islam in Dreams section.  Therefore, as a courtesy to him (?), I am posting my interpretation here.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;%%%%&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;First his original post:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;hanood says:&#60;br /&#62;
October 15, 2009 at 7:16 am&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;i had a dream that me and my parents were sitting with and old ill man, he was kind in heart and a very known good man, we were talking to him and while talking he said i have done so many good things in life and i am very good to people I’m always there for the needy, and then he said but i am not a believer of god, i said how can that be how can you not question your life and the universe and how why is this world created, then i explained to him about how we are on earth by telling him the story of Adam and eve, also telling him why this universe was created, in my dream i woke the next mourning and i asked my dad were is the old man and my dad said he past away i asked my dad did he ashhad (did he say ashahdu lailaha illalah) my dad said no, i was very upset because i wanted him to be a believer of god before he dies, then i see his dead body as a dead fish. can some one tell me wat it means?&#60;br /&#62;
Reply&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;%%%%&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Now for my interpretation -- &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Using the theories of the late Swiss psychologist Carl Jung, the people in this dream would come from your unconscious – more specifically, the collective unconscious, which is the origin of most of our dream symbols.  The collective unconscious is the source of archetypes, which appear in our dreams as symbols.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Your parents sound like they may be symbols of syzygy.  This is the joining of opposites and is almost a good sign in a dream.  Such a couple invariably appears as a man and a woman.  This symbol sometimes goes by more familiar names such as the Divine Union, the Royal Couple, the Sacred Marriage etc.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;The sick old man is also a part of you.  He sounds like he might be a mana personality.  The MP can be either male or female.  However, in the dreams of men, the mana personality is always another male.  He would be the Great Father or the Wise Old Man archetype.  You should strive “to integrate it into your consciousness. This means enriching your life with a wisdom that is not accessible to intellect but comes from the unconscious. It also means that from now on, conscious and unconscious are no longer seen as opposites, but as two cooperating and complementary parts of one and the same psyche.”     &#60;a href=&#34;http://www.mythsdreamssymbols.com/mana.html&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://www.mythsdreamssymbols.com/mana.html&#60;/a&#62;   &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;The old man also reminds me of the Fisher King.  &#60;a href=&#34;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher_King&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher_King&#60;/a&#62; &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;His death reflects the dreamer’s turning away from religion.  The dead fish supports this and also supports the symbolism of the Fisher King.  Although fish have long been associated with Christianity, it is also a symbol of religion and the spiritual.  &#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Hope this helps.
&#60;/p&#62;</description>

			<description>&#60;p&#62;I was playing a card game with another woman. It started as the game called dueling decks (neopets). Then she pulled a card out and it had a male and female posed like a couple in a professional picture. She looked at me raised her eyebrow and nodded slightly. She was inferring to my estranged husband that was in the background  behind me.  I said &#34;no, that will never be&#34;, &#34;that is over between us&#34;.  she simply nodded again and smiled. Then she pulled another card with a partially decomposed skull on it.  The skull was sort of tanned with some parts of leathery flesh still attached. Everything faded away and nothing was left but the skull looming in the black sky.&#60;br /&#62;
A little history - My spouse and I are estranged because he has been having an affair since 2004 with a young female he met in Iraq.  I have not been given permission from God to file for divorce and have been waiting (impatiently) for him to file since August 2007.  He keeps threatening to file but has not done so yet!  I welcome any intelligent comments and interpretations.
