all i can recall is being in a kitchen of a home we were staying in or potentially moving into. there was an island in the center of the kitchen. thats where the sink was. there was two thin plastic door things that slid over each side of the sink, but they were broken and so you had to tediously place them perfectly over the sinks to get them..to protect the sinks?
why were they there?
i told David, "this is not going to work. its too stressful or chaotic" -something like that.
i seem to remember seeing my engagement ring on my middle finger and not my ring finger.
(in waking life i put my ring on last night for the first time in months. because it was Davids birthday, and because i wanted to see if it changed my dreams. it seems like it has before, and seemingly still does)
Like every closed circle, the ring is a symbol of continuity and wholeness. This is why (like the bracelet) it has been used both as a symbol of marriage
and of the eternally repeated time-cycle. Sometimes it occurs in animal form, as a
snake or an eel biting its tail (Ouroboros); sometimes as a pure geometrical form
(8, 20, 32). It is interesting to note that, in some legends, the ring is regarded as the
only remaining link of a chain. Thus, it is told that when Jupiter allowed Hercules
to rescue Prometheus, it was on condition that the latter should thereafter wear an
iron ring, set with a piece of rock from the Caucasus, as a symbol of submission
to his punishment (8). Another type of ring is found in the circle of flames
surrounding the dancing Shiva as he performs the cosmic dance; this flame-ring
can be related to the Zodiac. Like the Zodiac and the Ouroboros of the Gnostics,
it has an active and a passive half (evolution, involution), and stands for the lifecycle of both the universe and each individual being: the circular dance of nature
in eternal process of creation and destruction. At the same time, the light radiated
by the ring of flames symbolizes eternal wisdom and transcendental illumination
(60).

Night is related to the passive principle, the feminine and the unconscious. Hesiod gave it the name of ‘mother of the gods’, for the Greeks believed
that night and darkness preceded the creation of all things (8). Hence, night—like
water—is expressive of fertility, potentiality and germination (17); for it is an
anticipatory state in that, though not yet day, it is the promise of daylight. Within
the tradition of symbology it has the same significance as death and the colour
black.
To have a dream that takes place at night, represents some major setbacks and obstacles in achieving your goals. You are being faced with an issue that is not so clear cut.

All things that flow and grow were regarded in early religions as a symbol
of life: fire represented the vital craving for nourishment, water was chosen for its
fertilizing powers, plants because of their verdure in spring-time. Now, all—or
very nearly all—symbols of life are also symbolic of death. Media vita in morte
sumus, observed the mediaeval monk, to which modern science has replied La vie
c’est la mort (Claude Bernard). Thus, fire is the destroyer, while water in its
various forms signifies dissolution, as suggested in the Psalms. In legend and
folklore, the Origin of life—or the source of the renewal of the life forces—takes
the form of caves and caverns where wondrous torrents and springs well up (38).
