you are not your father's child

[carlos]

I was laying face first on my mom's bed talking with her. My legs were hanging over the bed and basically my chest was resting on the bed and my head was raised looking at my mother who was sitting at top left hand corner of the bed, if you are facing the bed from the foot of the bed, with her trunk twisted facing me. there was a 3rd male at the bed foot of the bed sitting as well, with his hand resting on the bed and helping him turn and face the center of the conversation.

My mother told me that I was not my father's child. My father was another man. I pressed my face into the bed, and felt my eyes well up with tears and cried. I heard her tell try to tell me again by saying, he was not your father.

Carlos,
I do not know how to approach this, dream. You will see what I mean in a few lines.
First of all, you must consider if anything in waking life mirrors this dream...another words, if there suspicion or possibility that this could be true then this is where you need to start looking for meaning.

If not, then I would assume that your mother was on the top corner of the bed that is not your dominant side. Example if you are right handed in waking life, I would surmise that you were on the the right lower corner and I would assume she would have been on your left. If this is the case then something else other than genetic lineage is being announced ... the meaning would be different than that which you react to, in the dream.... something like you are much different than your father... You act and react much differently to stimuli. This is what comes to me first. The next thing to take into account is the other person on the bed by you.
I suspect that your way of life, and the person that you have become is much different than your father.

Just some thoughts because there is not enough detail other that that which directly contributes to the architecture of the dream...no background or action (clues that help me to put things in perspective.

Often dreams are acknowledgments of the way that things are, much like a fact is placed in an ongoing journal.
All the best,
sailrmc

Hi carlos, nice to hear to hear your dream

Well the dream may have many triggers. Dreams are like little stories. They make sense in ways which are quite personal. I am not you so cannot understand the specific cause of the dream. I can only speculate.

Anyway. The dream reveals some major hidden truth. Often dreams will compare one thing to another. So have there been any hidden truths revealed to you. Any moment when you stood and wondered. When your whole belief about the world changed. Maybe some incident from the day before.

Another explanation could be quite practical and literal. Has there been recent actvity in your thinking regards your family. Any developments with your mother or father.

------------------------
Dreams can use one set of emotions from the past to show how we are feeling something very similar right now. That’s where many dreams can be misinterpreted. Many psychologists point to deep and traumatic events that we are bringing up within our dreams. Yet they are mistaken. The dream is not about that incident. The dream is comparing that traumatic incident to some current situation with something that has just happened. Yet because the dream seems to be about the event in the past we assume that’s what the dream is about. But in reality dreams will be often simply saying "yesterday was as bad as what happened last year". Many times we seem very upset and things seem chaotic but after a good nights sleep the previous day’s events will be put in perspective. It may have seemed a nightmare when we couldn't get the printer to work or when everything seemed to go wrong for you on a particular day. Dreams depict events in our head. Our mind often exaggerates situations and feelings. So many times these crises within our mind get quickly forgotten. But dreams will deal with these here to day and gone tomorrow emotions.

yes, i have had major changes in thinking, i think this is a lashback produced by my mind for steeping outside of the norm an creating my own system of life. hence I am not my father's son.

i have been listening and reading some religion, myth and psychology, and it most likely is the trigger.

i was hoping you and sailormc answered. thanks guys it was helpful.

Hi Carlos,
If ever a dream was dreamt to wake the sleeper from a bad sleeping position this was it! Else how would you know what position you were sleeping ? The dream was created by your subconscious to shake you awake!
Who was it said: He is a wise man who knows who his father is!
Cheers Wolfjk

Hi,
Do you really belive that you could wake up without lifes waking mechanism? Look into the mirror! Everithing about you is mechanical and subject to the laws of nature! Your heart is a hydraulic pump that circulates your blood! your lungs are neumatic pumps that exchange oxigen and carbon dioxide, your stomach is an internal combustion engine that gives you energy to move your muscles that are attached to a mechanical frame! Your brain is a computer that makes the decisions! This is the mortal coil! Beyond this there is the being! The subconscious mind that keeps alive. Your dreams are the go -between life and oblivion!
