Dreamcatcher: Gym, Text, Spear, and House Developing

Gym, Text, Spear, and House Developing

I’m in the auditorium with a bunch of others my age. We’re all here for special training. My training focuses on back strength, using heavy balls that I’m supposed to toss to others in my little group.
Everyone is here for something specific, such as one guy who is here because he has a problem with hitting the ceiling with basketballs. He has an obsession with it. The guy ends up hitting the ceiling again, and again, and again, and is so proud of it he continually does it and cheers himself on. The overboard excitement eventually grinds everyone in the aud to a silenced halt as we watch him. The people running the place step in and stop him, but they have to force him and he goes into a rage fit, desperate to continue, as though the action were a drug or something.
I get home [Dad’s house] and lay down on the couch. Mom and Dad come into the living room too and talk to me despite me trying to sleep. My phone goes off, and I open it to see it’s a text from Leon. I struggle to read it, because of my parents trying to talk to me. I ask Mom to take care of something in the living room that I was supposed to do, and go to my room.
Now that I’m alone, I can properly read the message. It’s a link to a movie that he worked on editing, with “Just in case you want to check it out” attached. I get the sense that it’s been a long time since we have talked. I decide to join in the breaking of the ice by sending him a pic of what I worked on today, which is a kick-ass spear that I forged myself. It’s black except where it’s been ground down, which is a shining silver. I set the weapon on my purple bed to get a picture, but the lighting stinks. I try to find a blank periwinkle blue wall to try and lean it against, but none of them are empty enough to get a good picture. I eventually take it over to the window. I move the night sky patterned curtains over to the side and tuck them up in the curtain rod. I enjoy feeling like I can open my window without the possibility of a neighbor seeing me, thanks to the open field next to my dad’s house. It’s something that I’ve missed, as are the blue walls.
Once I look out though, I do see there are in fact neighbors nearby, but not close enough to actually see my window but still fairly close. They’re in the middle of the field. I don’t remember them being there, so I figure they must be a new development.
I’m now suddenly designing one of the houses in this row of new houses. I make a great lay out with a covered porch and plenty of space. I move what looks like sound file waves up and down to adjust the price of the three bathrooms. I keep one expensive while lowering the price and quality of the other two to keep the house affordable but nice. [End]

The Dictionary of Symbols

Mystics have always traditionally considered the feminine aspect of
the universe as a chest, a house or a wall, as well as an enclosed garden. Another
symbolic association is that which equates the house (and the above, related
forms) with the repository of all wisdom, that is, tradition itself (4). In architectural symbolism, on the other hand, the house carries not only an overall symbolism but also particular associations attached to each of its component parts.
Nevertheless, the house as a home arouses strong, spontaneous associations with
the human body and human thought (or life, in other words), as has been confirmed empirically by psychoanalysts. Ania Teillard explains this by pointing
out that, in dreams, we employ the image of the house as a representation of the
different layers of the psyche. The outside of the house signifies the outward
appearance of Man: his personality or his mask. The various floors are related to
the vertical and spatial symbols. The roof and upper floor correspond to the head
and the mind, as well as to the conscious exercise of self-control. Similarly, the
basement corresponds to the unconscious and the instincts (just as sewers do, in
symbols pertaining to the city). The kitchen, since this is where foodstuff is
transformed, sometimes signifies the place or the moment of psychic transmutation in the alchemical sense. The intercommunicating rooms speak for themselves. The stairs are the link between the various planes of the psyche, but their
particular significance depends upon whether they are seen as ascending or descending. Finally, there is, as we have said, the association of the house with the
human body, especially regarding its openings, as was well understood by
Artemidorus Daldianus (56).

Meaning of Dreams

It is common to dream about houses. They usually symbolise our emotional and psychological selves. All of your experiences, stages of development, and parts of your conscious and unconscious life may be represented by that house. The house may be representing issues concerning a particular dilemma in your life, or it may be more general and comprehensive. Either way, if you pay attention to the details in this dream, you may learn a thing or two about yourself.

The Dictionary of Symbols

Since it consists of an aperture, the window expresses the ideas of
penetration, of possibility and of distance, and because it is square in shape, its
implications are rational and terrestrial. It is also symbolic of consciousness (32),
especially when it is located at the top of a tower, by analogy with the head of the
human figure. Divided windows carry a secondary significance, which may at
times even be the predominant sense, deriving from the number of openings or lights and from the inter-relationships between the relevant number-symbolism
and the general symbolism of the window (Plate XXXI).

A window is a rich dream symbol. Its accurate interpretation can lead to awareness and a better understanding of a personal outlook on life. If you are looking through the window, pay close attention to what you are looking at. Is it a beautiful landscape or a scene dealing with an experience or a situation from your past? Looking through a window and seeing a beautiful landscape may represent your desire for greater satisfaction and more peace in your life. If you are seeing something familiar, you may be able to perceive the situation in a new way and gain some insight. Some say that a window may represent a time frame. A closed window suggests an inability to effectively communicate, and an opened widow may represent desire for new adventure in life. Windows in our houses allow us to see the world on the outside, the windows in our dreams may encourage us to better see the world within ourselves, as well as the world outside.

The Dictionary of Symbols

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’.

Dream Moods
