Some Dreams are hard to put into words. But there was the longest dream of this One image. It was a stream, and long beam, like a frequency Sine Wave. It was made of both Male and Female energy. It represented fertility. I would endlessly try to pick this apart to See what is in between. But in my dream I would only become a Male energy on an investigation in which I would meet an Evil Empress who would protect the Key, the Mystery, the Answer. Only when I think I am close to the answer, I would only become an Emperor holding the Key, the Mystery, the Answer. The empress would somehow just forget the answer, and trade places with Me. This went back and forth in different ways until I saw each Empress and Emperor as a Stair in an infinite Staircase. So then I would begin to look Inside the Staircase, and would only find the long beam, Sine Wave thing again. So there it would start all over. Endless loop.
If you dream that you ask a question and receive a polite answer, you are confident that you will receive the help that you need. However, if someone is reluctant to answer your question, or if they avoid answering at all, you feel that other people are untrustworthy in waking life.
A dream that you answer the question of someone that you know can mean that you understand that person very well.
Symbols of fertility are: water, seeds, phallic shapes. Granet recounts that, in China, the conjugal bed used to be placed in the darkest corner of
the room, where the seeds were kept and above the spot where the dead were
buried. Eliade maintains that the respective rites pertaining to forebears, harvests
and the erotic life are so closely related to each other that it is impossible to
distinguish between them (17). In Indian ritual, grains of rice serve to represent
the seed of fertility (17).

As an attribute, it pertains to several mythic characters, including Hecate
(31). It is symbolic of mystery or enigma, or of a task to be performed, and the
means of carrying it out. It sometimes refers to the threshold of the unconscious
(32). The key to knowledge corresponds, within the cycle of the year, to the
month of June (healing). The conjunction of the symbols of the male dove and the
key signifies the spirit opening the gates of heaven (4). The emblem formed by
two keys, sometimes placed over a heart, relates to Janus (4). In legend and
folklore, three keys are often used to symbolize a like number of secret chambers
full of precious objects. They are symbolic representations of initiation and
knowledge. The first key, of silver, concerns what can be revealed by psychological understanding; the second is made of gold, and pertains to philosophical
wisdom; the third and last, of diamond, confers the power to act (38). The finding
of a key signifies the stage prior to the actual discovery of the treasure, found
only after great difficulties. Clearly there is a morphological relationship between
the key and the Nem Ankh sign (or ‘Eternal Life’)—the anserated cross of the Egyptians; their gods are sometimes shown holding this cross by the top as if it
were a key, especially in ceremonies concerning the dead. But it should perhaps
be pointed out that, in this case, it is the keys that derive from the anserated cross,
the archetype of the key of Eternal Life that opens up the gates of death on to
immortality.

n Just as the powers of the Earth must be defended, so, by analogy,
must all mythic, religious and spiritual wealth or power be protected against
hostile forces or against possible intrusion by the unworthy. Hence the familiarity of the ‘keeper of the treasure’ in legends: almost invariably, this guardian is a
griffin or dragon, or else a warrior endowed with superhuman powers. In temples,
the idea of defence is implicit in the spatial organization and confirmed by the
disposition of the walls, the doors and towers. In the Far East, the guardians are
usually fabulous monsters. In Western countries, the same function may be performed by the figures inscribed on doorways. From the psychological point of
view, guardians symbolize the forces gathered on the threshold of transition
between different stages of evolution and spiritual progress or regression. The
‘guardian of the threshold’ must be overcome before Man can enter into the
mastery of a higher realm.
To see your guardian in your dream, signifies that you will be treaded with consideration by your friends.
