Love and reptiles?

[annamarina]

I had adream where I was back at my parents house. (They were not good parents to me). but in the dream, here is a black bag in my mother's bedroom. It's moving around. I am afraid and run to her. She goes in to kill whatever it is, and a large iguana-type lizard burst out and runs away into the yard. Later on, my sister and I look into he room and there is a very large snake sliding around the bed frame. Somehow we also look in the kitchen, and there is another snake there too. Both my sister and I grab the snakes (while they are trying to bite us, we are able to hold them back) and take them out to the yard and release them. The snak I carried was gren and black, the snake she carried was yellow and brown. Shortly after, the brown and yellow snake tries to get back into the house, but I close the door. The door doesn't seem to close all the way, and so I stand in the way to block it.

The dream switches to dinner at a restaurant with an unfriendly employee and her friends, who I had to fire some time ago.

The dream then switches again to where I see a guy I had been in love with, before I married my husband. He keeps asking me over to his house, and I go several times (hoping something will happen romantically between us). I express my maintained interest in him, but he seems hesitant to reciprocate.

What does this all mean?

Well if you have an affair then you show dissatisfaction for what you have. Maybe thats the connection . That you felt your parents were dissatisfied with the children that they had. But underlying the dream is your bad parents. Its a dream about you overcoming the problems from childhood and the snakes reprsent bad habits that you have picked up... perhaps showing similar tendencies or being scared in some way by the upbringing

Dreams feature symbols that are very general. A fight for instance will symbolise some struggle or frustration that you are facing in real life. We all face struggles in life and only the dreamer can pinpoint the exact meaning of the dream. A politician struggles to get his views accepted. A sportsman struggles with an injurey that is affecting his performance. What you must do is find your own truth within the dream. Think about the day before and think about the things on your mind recently. Then you will realise what the truth of the dream is. You will realise what this very general message means. The dream brings your emotions to life but often within a storyline that is nonsensical. But those emotions felt in the dream are very real. They may be about your life in general but then again it maybe about something very specific. Sometimes the struggles and fights depicted within a dream may surprise you if correctly interpreted. They may be linked to something that you would not expect to have a dream about. Many dreams maybe about seemingly mundane matters. But most daily issues at the time are extremely important(at the time).
