Discuss:Wedding Dresses

What could my dream mean???
There are two distinct parts to the dream.

Part 1

i was on a train and somebody found a dead baby in an abandoned suitcase (this was in black and white)

Part 2
i was in at a tv gameshow. that involved 100's of brides. it was situated in an arena, where we were seated around an empty swimming pool. The aim of the gameshow was to correctly guess a wordfill puzzle in order to win beautiful bridal gowns (that they were wearing) individually tailored for each of them by a designer. the dresses were beautiful and coloured vividly in orange and yellow. There was a lot of excitement and energy in the room.

The female designer was present and friendly at first ie. allowing my niece to play around. then later scalding my niece for playing around. I remember being angry at the designer for her swift change in attitude.

My mother was also in the dream, although we only exchanged a glance and a smile.

I guessed the answer to the wordfill puzzle incorrectly, on a whim, and lost the game (but i remember feeling ok with this. i had a win some you lose

its important to make associations in dreams. Often dreams dwell on something that has just happened. There was a couple of moments that maybe just replicate what happened the day before eg

1. the moment when you felt angry for this swift change in attitude

2. the moment when you felt you can win some and lose some.

did you feel that specific moment the day before?

People expect too much from dream dictionaries. Can you really expect a dream dictionary to provide an explanation of what your dream means simply because it included a particular symbol? It’s an absurd suggestion. The best comparison is to expect someone what a sentence means by just giving them one word within it. For instance to ask someone what a sentence means that includes the word "soldier". In reality the process in almost impossible. There are so many different ways that the word can be used that interpreting the dream just by spotting one word within it is simply ridiculous. The word soldier can be used in many different ways such as "I need to soldier on", "we have not got enough soldiers in Iraq", and "I want to be a soldier when I grow up".

So why do people expect a dream interpreter to be able to simply understand a dream by the inclusion of one symbol. In practice dream symbolism work in much the same way as ordinary dictionaries. A soldier can represent themselves but they can also be used in a wider context to show the types of qualities that a soldier exhibits (toughness and the ability to endure hardship and follow rules). So think how anyone of those symbolic meanings relates to recent events. It’s really important to use a process of association. Associate the dream symbol with real life thoughts. First ask yourself if the symbol could represent itself. Did you think of any real life soldiers the day before? But also consider the qualities that soldier’s exhibit. Did those same qualities have any relevance the day before? Did you need to follow rules and be disciplined? Did the same seem like a constant struggle? Also consider the day to come and see how that relates to possible symbolic meanings. Did you resolve to soldier on in some difficult situation?

Work though all the symbols in the same way and see what real life issues can best fit the real situation in your life. But also consider telepathy and premonitions as they too are part of the many aspects of dreaming.
