I am watching from a third person perspective activity on a road. A police car is driving down the road, and a car passes him. I see the police man becomes very angry with road rage at the car that drove past him in the opposite direction. He gets out of his police car and runs in the direction of the other car, pulls out his gun and unloads many shots at the car. I can't tell if he hits the car or not. He gets back into his police car and goes back to his business.
In this same area, I see a man and woman who I perceive as road warriors. They get into a fight. The man takes the woman and picks her up and hangs her up on a post that spears through her head. I am appalled by the mercilessness of the act I have just seen.
I am now with an older man, and we go flying through the air. We both fly together down the road. As we are flying past this mountainous area, I see many painted red marks, like bull horns, I think these are markings for Satan, painted all over. I put up my right hand with three fingers up and my left hand over my solar plexus and I chant some prayer of protection (or I may have just chanted "in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit"). The red horns are painted all over the landscape.
We come to a mountainside that has a black box on the side of it, the black box looks like an electrical transformer. The man and I stop over this box, except that we are flying upside down, positioned over the box. The man tells me that he is looking for God. I am pretty doubtful that if God is here, this man is going to be able to get into the box.
The man communicates into the box. A receptionist answers and tells him that the "doctor" is busy and this man doesn't have an appointment. But the man I am with is persistent and after much coaxing, we are let into the box. We go down into the earth and we are now waiting in a waiting room with a receptionist behind a desk. The man is making his case to see the "doctor".
A man who looks like a dentist walks by, I think that maybe this is a representative of God that he is looking for. The dentist sees us and stops and tells the receptionist to go ahead and let us in. I am excited. We are let into a long, dark, empty room and are waiting, except I am no longer waiting with the older man, but with Evie. The room is dimly lit. We are waiting. There is a set of windows off on the left wall of the room. A group of kids come up to the window and are looking in at us, trying to communicate, asking us something. I start to get the feeling this isn't a place of God, but a dark place.
A man approaches me in the room. He gets in between Evie and me. He seems malevolent. Evie gets afraid and starts to run away. I tell her not to run away but to stay with me. The man is going to attack me but I take a chair, knock him over onto his back, and slam one of the legs of the chair into his chest, which doesn't kill him, but pins him to the ground so he can't get us. Another man comes into the room to get us and Evie again wants to run but I tell her to stay with me. The tone of the dream is seeming more frightening now and I wake myself up.

Like all receptacles whose basic use is keeping or containing, the box is
a feminine symbol which can refer both to the unconscious (15) and to the
maternal body itself (31). We do not here refer to spherical objects, which are symbols of Oneness and of the spiritual principle. The myth of ‘Pandora’s box’
appears to allude to the significance of the unconscious, particularly in the special
sense of its unexpected, excessive, destructive potentialities. Diel relates this
symbol to ‘imaginative exaltation’ (15). In addition, we would like to point out
the analogy—the family resemblance—between Pandora’s box and the ‘third
casket’ which figures in so many legends. The first and second contain goods and
riches; the third discharges storms, devastation, death. This is clearly an example
of a symbol of human life (of the cycle of the year), which is divided into three
stages, consisting of two favourable thirds and one adverse. A superb elaboration
upon the Pandora theme is to be found in Dora and Erwin Panofsky’s Pandora’s
Box (London, 1956). Particularly interesting is the authors’ study of the literary
heritage of a myth, and the ways in which it may be adapted to serve the visual
arts.

A symbol of individuality—of private thoughts. The windows symbolize the possibility of understanding and of passing through to the external and
the beyond, and are also an illustration of any idea of communication. Hence, a
closed room lacking windows may be symbolic of virginity, according to Frazer,
and also of other kinds of non-communication. Many rites involving the
enclosureimage are performed to mark the reaching of puberty, all over the world.
The legend about Danae, shut up by her father in a bronze tower, pertains to this
particular symbolism. There is a Siberian legend concerning a ‘dark house of iron’
which is also relevant to it (21). We might also mention the ‘vase with a lid’, one
of the eight emblems of good luck in Chinese Buddhism, and a symbol of wholeness, of the idea with no ‘exit’, or, in other words, of supreme intelligence triumphant over birth and death (signified respectively by the doors and windows of
the room) (5). This explains why the hermetically sealed room may possibly be
a variant form of the ‘vase with a lid’.

Regardless of whether we believe in a God or not, all of us have been exposed to the idea of a supreme and omnipresent being. The dilemma over the existence of God is probably the most common dilemma of them all. Everyone from time to time will have a dream about "God." Its symbolism depends on the dreamer. God in our dreams can be considered a positive or self-affirming symbol. It represents truth, purity, and love. It also represents the creative energy that is abundant in all of us (whether we know it or not). For a certain number of people, in the dream state, God may have negative connotations. For them God could represent eternal punishment, damnation, and invoke massive amount guilt. Most religions consider dreams to be a pathway to God or to the spiritual realm. Through dreams we have an opportunity to have experiences that are not available during the day. Our unconscious mind may be more capable of connecting to the eternal flow of spirit and it may be the dwelling place of the soul.
