dream trends

[adrienmundi]

So, more with the emerging patterns of my dreams lately:

-public/semi-public spaces: hotels, dorms, houses that are hotels but aren't, campus

-bathrooms: usually shared but not public, issue of being able to find and use one (sometimes the shower, the sink, or the toilet; never consistently just one); impediments may be presence of others (but never anything as cut and dried as whether to use the MEN or WOMEN's)

-partially dressed: generally an issue of being shirtless, and worried about perception of others; typically from the perspective of being read as a "man" by others (and thus not supposed to have breasts), most recently of wondering if I'd have time to put my dress back on before people realized I wasn't a "woman"

-people I know: their presences don't make any sense in these contexts


I'm not at all used to having dreams that I wake from going, "Huh, wtf was that all about?" I've been spoiled by knowing my own symbolic systems pretty well, until the past few months, and now nothing just resonates all the way down to meaning.

sounds to me like they all stem from fear of other's perception
