Giant Dreams
A few of you may know of my podcast of Dreams called DreamyAudio. It isn’t updated often, as I have to remember my dreams before I record anything. Sometimes I remember many at one time. Other times I’m just lazy to upload them to my computer from my digital voice recorder and they just set for a few weeks.
My dream from this evening was about my therapist that I visited today. It went something like this …
I saw a giant and he was guarding a gate door. In order to get through, I had to present him with a trinket of some kind. I took a sword, held it strait out so that the blade was perpendicular with the ground. As it vibrated, I swung it back and forth to cut very thick grass. I found a comb and a silver necklace. I held them up and the giant smiled but said that neither item was what he wanted. I noticed other people were also in the field looking for what he needed, but they didn’t have the advantage of using a vibrating sword.
The therapist is the giant who keeps wanting me to answer the same question over and over again. I just simply can’t find the answer he is looking for no matter how much I think about it. The comb and necklace represent some of my answers. The cutting of thick grass is me digging through my mind looking for something that is very hard to find.
So I started looking up some things in my Little Giant Encyclopedia of Dream Symbols that I got last year when I went to a meeting with the cat vacuum society. I found parts of each definition that seems to apply most to my dream.
Sword: Frequent symbol for intellectual work since the sword separates and, therefore, leads us to make decisions.
Giant: An archetypal symbol of an overpowering father figure.
Comb: Vanity.
Jewelry: Well-being. Honor or vanity. Also implies that an inner Treasure has been discovered. Also a desire for acceptance and affection.
Grass: Grass that is too high and growing wild means unrealistic ideas.
Gate: A symbol of transition and a suggestion that something new is coming.

Wow.. something i incuraged Lewie to do that Stacy aproves of.. of corse if she knew i had anything to do with it prior to now it would have been a Baaaaad thing.

i wouldn’t feel inclind to have the last word if you didn’t feel so inclind to have the first one. and when Lewie gets angery or upset he’s pretty good at ranting. but i guess he doesn’t tell you about all the good things i have brought to his life. Or the good things he has brout to mine. I take care of LEwie better then any one ever has and Like my life in the last 4 years or so his has been better then it ever was befor. So befor you start giving me grief why don’t you get all of your facts strait and not just run off of about things said in anger.

I think Krozy would mention at this point that he likes pie.

For starters, I would like to say “I like pie”. Pumpkin is probably my favorite, followed closely by walnut. I occasionally like a slice of apple, but maybe that’s cobbler. Someone told me once that cobbler isn’t the same as pie, but I think anything that comes in the pie shape whether its not covered, covered plainly, thatched, etc. is a pie. Some would even say round stuff like pizza would be pie.
Beyond that though here is my opinion. Feel free to not read between the lines, fly off the handle, start a massive flamewar, etc. instead of getting the point.
1. Everyone has their quirks that others don’t like
2. Nobody, including significant others, knows everyone’s full life, or what makes them tick. It’s a learning experience throughout life.
3. Some people naturally have a tendency to instigate or act defensively when they feel threatened, regardless of whether or not they actually are being attacked.
4. My Un-PC comment… Just like the special olympics, there’s no sense arguing on the internet. No matter who wins or loses, you’re still a retard.
5. Angel, the way I’m reading this, which I’m assuming is what may appear to others is .. you instigated, stacy made an open comment not directly attacking you, and you began starting crap. I personally take offense to your statement “I take care of LEwie better then any one ever has”.
6. The whole whining factor of someone not answering a phone call is retarded. Original comment from the person making the offer was nearly 10 hours prior to the other party actually implying that they called.
7. With that said, lets try to think about how what we say may impact others.
I don’t want to take sides here. I figure you all can duke it out if you want, but had to chime in with the pie factor. Before getting your panties in a bunch, I suggest re-reading my reply 2 or 3 times.

Back to the original post of what this thread is about … Giant Dreams …
I think I interpret the dream differently. My impression of what the giant represents is different then yours. To me, it doesn’t seem like a person at all, but more like the system. I say this based upon your statement of other people in the field. I get the impression that your essence in the dream feels as though you are trying to get out of a dilema, and others are in a similar plight. The giant seems to be guarding the door, but is acting more like a toll booth. The giant is a potential threat if you try “escaping”, but really wants stuff, and you just dont know what it is you need to provide.

I’m going to close out comments on this post. No need to keep this stuff going on.
