Strange dream of being lost

[Scorpio76]

Hey all,
I had a dream last night with a couple of different parts. The first part, I was walking by myself, somewhere far away from home, and I thought I knew where I was going, but then I realized I was lost. I stopped to ask someone directions, but then my boss walked up and smiled and she said "don't worry, I'll take you home."
The next part I was driving, and I saw an exit, but I couldn't figure out if it was the right exit or not, so I was driving really slow past the exit trying to decide if it was right or not.
The next part was completely different- I was with my ex-boyfriend, and we were demonstrating a dance for some people (we're both dancers.) But it was weird because he was off-time, and I was having trouble following him.

Can anyone make sense of this string of scenes? Thanks.

Hi Scorpio76,

I was walking by myself, somewhere far away from home, and I thought I knew where I was going, but then I realized I was lost. I stopped to ask someone directions, but then my boss walked up and smiled and she said "don't worry, I'll take you home."

In dreams, walking often describes a mental effort. In your dream, your mental effort has left you far from a place of social structure (home imagery) where you feel socially stable and secure. Your boss represents those compelling social forces in your life that provide you with the incentive and direction you require to reach your social destiny.

...I was driving, and I saw an exit, but I couldn't figure out if it was the right exit or not, so I was driving really slow past the exit trying to decide if it was right or not.

This dream suggests your motivation and drive to reach a social goal; however, you remain uncertain as to when and where your social journey may lead or end (uncertainty of where to exit). If home was your dream goal, then your objective is to reach a place of social structure, stability, and security.

I was with my ex-boyfriend, and we were demonstrating a dance for some people (we're both dancers.) But it was weird because he was off-time, and I was having trouble following him.

This final dream suggests your thoughts on the disharmony between you and your ex-boyfriend (although, as dancers, you were both harmonious individually). Clearly, from your perspective, he was (mentally, emotionally, or socially) out-of-step with you and difficult to follow. Let me know if this helps.

Thanks for the reply, it's interesting. I'll definitely give it some thought. My biggest thing now is I'm trying to find a new job, I'm getting back into the dating scene, I moved not long ago, so my life is kind of in flux right now. Maybe that has something to do with it, going along with what you were saying.

well dreams often link to your emotions and motivations about things in geenral. In this case its probably particularly about changing jobs. Things are out of step right now. If you are far away from home you are doing something that does not come naturally to you... your not quite at home in your present job.

ex boyfriends can signify(in this case) a job that you used to like (like your ex) but which after a time became something that is not ideal
------------------
It is actually possible to understand what dreams mean. Simply look at the effects on people who have gone without sleep for a long time period. If you are deprived of sleep for several days then you will slip into madness. The reason for this is that sleep and dreams are linked to vital brain functions.

During the day we store up new thoughts and experiences within short term memory blocks. So if we are deprived sleep these become overloaded. The mind has no more space to store new feelings so these are merely forgotten.

During sleep vital brain waves emerge. Beta waves and theta waves are only ever detected within the brain at night. These help us process through those new feelings and experiences stored in short term memory. We integrate these new feelings into long term memory blocks. So if you do not sleep then you will not be updating your thoughts. You will not be building a bigger picture.

[Varzandeh]

being lost is a symbol in dream language that means you are a talent and skillful person but no-one regards you as you merit.
Only once your boss has regarded you in a case.Driving means guidance of the life and in a two way hesitant means a decision making problem.
Good luck.
