Hi Legz,
Something traumatic happened on your trip to Guatemala! It could have been just the general look of the place that disturbed you? However you tend to sleep near the level of consciousness where you remember your dreams or have a delicate digestive system that is easily put out of balance.
This dream was caused by you eating something that gave you indigestion or stomach ache. Something that happened to you while you were in Guatamala?
another disturbing dream

Well dreams use associations. In understanding what the symbol means you have to understand why your mind has chosen it. It could be one of many different reasons... its like trying to understand why someone likes a particular piece of music... not easy... but here are a few ideas...

1. You associate GUATEMALA with your ex boyfriend... it could feature some feeling like "I went and did that because I thought I would have a good time... but " .. so the dream maybe about you been drawn into something good that turns bad

2. People in GUATEMALA are a lot poorer. The dream could be about economic circumstances and the economy.. being stuck in increasing poverty... or the fear of it..

3. GUATEMALA is a long distance away. It can signify something new... unfamiliar in your life... rather than something you feel more AT HOME doing...


------------------------
Dream interpreting is not an easy task. In some ways its like trying to work out what subject inspired someone’s poem by studying the metaphors within it. It can be done though. But you only achieve any level of success when you interpret your own dreams.

Generally dreams are very much in the present day. They will often represent specific thoughts either as we look back to the previous day or as we focus on the day to come. So a snake for example symbolises something bad and in the context of a dream analysis will generally point to some problem or trap either that you nearly fell into yesterday or that you worry about in the near future. But either way there are not that many problems and traps and difficult situations from yesterday. Usually you will be able to highlight one thing.

So try to look at dreams simply. A good dream will show your happy state of mind and so thats really not that difficult to trace.

Hi there Leg

The places we dream about usually are a reflection of some aspect within our own selves. It may have been that your visit to Guatmala left an impression on you, that it was a particularly or potentially hostile place where you felt threatened and scared. With this in mind, your dreams maybe drawing your attention to this own energy within self by reflecting the same sort of turbulance or fear that you have on a deeper level.

Dreams generally reveal to us what is happening under the surface of our every day to day thoughts and perceptions, im just wandering if you feel caught up in some pensive fear that you feel you cant break free from.

To keep dreaming of Gutamala in this way is showing you that you are repeating or are caught up in some emotional pattern/energy that is fear based and is probably having an effect on your personal life.

Food in dreams can reflect nourishment or self nourishment, sometimes when one is single or in a relationship that is not satisfying it can feel that we are not getting the emotional nourishment that we need! Thats not to suggest that this is what is going on with you, but just a possibility im just wandering if you are not feeling emotionally fullfilled at the moment.

These are just some ideas and potentiuals of your dreams meaning I hoipoe it helps some Good Luck

Hi,
This thread indicates the difficulty faced by the long distance dream interpreter:

In the same post Legz writes:

I would regard a parting of the ways, especially when there is a child involved, EXTREMELY TRAUMATIC
Perhaps we all look at life from different angles?

Subconsciously Guatemala may hold various meanings for you. First of all Guatemala represents to you a fairly new place or territory. At the time you are having all these dream about Guatemala are you having a new experience in your life or going to a new place in your life? If so that could be one of the reason you are having these dreams. Also you mentioned you felt bad about the little boy in Guatemala? It seems as if it is disturbing you greatly. Perhaps with all that is happening with the economy you are even more disturbed at the prospect of ending up like that boy in Guatemala lacking food and security. Food represents nourishment. It seems as if you are desperately trying to satisfy some need in your life. Running around in Guatemala may suggest that you feel lost, without a sense of direction in regards to something new in your life. You are unsure of which direction to take and what to do. It is like you are going in circles trying to find a way.
