Hello every body, I've been having some weird dreams. They are weird not coz they are srange but because they don't make sense to me and I am hoping some one will help me out here. There are three dreams but I thought that the central theme may be the same as one person keeps cropping up in all of them. I do realise it is going to be a long read though ... DREAM 1 I had a dream about having a conversation on the phone with CM (my ex who I am still very much in love with). The conversation is about him having spoken to my mother. He tells me that my mother was asking him some questions. Its not there in the dream but I have a sense that he has gone to visit India and he's met my mother and has called me up to let me know about the meeting. Essentially, the sense is that he is not at the same location as I am. The conversation or the feel of the conversation is of two very close friends or maybe even a couple. I think he mentions 2 of them but I can't remember the first one. The second one is 'How is Kishan (it could be Krishan or Krishna I'm not really sure how it is to be spelt)'. I don't know any Kishan, Krishna or Krishan and my mother has never met CM nor does she know of him except perhaps she may (most likely not) recall that CM and I have some business arrangement. She's met the other partners but not CM since he was not in India and even I didn't know him back then so I doubt it very much if she would recall him. So the dream doesn't make any sense. I wonder if this is some sort of a prophetic /psychic dream? I would nonetheless like some inputs on what it could mean. DREAM 2 I dreamt that I am with a friend of mine, KK, searching for some place. This friend of mine is someone I had looked into starting a business with in India around the same time my ex, CM, came into my life. CM, me and three other guys (AT, AN and DM) had also started a business around this time. KK and I had a bit of a crush on each other but nothing came out of it and we are just great friends. Anyhow, I am with him searching for some place and then we walk past a building which is a bank called 'krishna bank' and I tell him that there is a 'krishna restaurant' in a very similar sort of building. The next scene is at a temple or some place where some prayers have been performed and we are to meet some people here. I don't know what are we supposed to meet these people about coz all I remember is telling KK that we have an exam to pass and how to grow tomatoes (exam syllabus) and that we have to leave. I am not sure if this is the end of the dream or if this continues on to the next one: I am returning back home with someone (I know this person but I can't recall who it is now) on a tram and I happen to live in the city (infact close to where my old office is, not sure if that is the exact location where I live but definitely in the same area). CM's office is about 2/3 streets up from my place. I tell this friend that I'm going to walk back home from here since I am not very far away and get off close about 2 blocks away from CM's office. I am walking in the direction of the office thinking about which way to take as I am not very familiar with these routes in the city (which I in reality am not), if I should turn right before the intersection to CM's office or walk past it (that seems the more familiar route). I decide what the heck! let me walk past his office even if I do land up bumping into him, I miss him so much. I look at the watch and it is almost closing time. The next scene I see myself in CM's office and I am standing in front of a pile of paper staring at it. I think I photocopied them but I am not sure but I am thinking why did I have to photocopy them there. I am sort of sad. No body seems to find it odd that I am there and I do think why is it that no body is wondering why I am there. I finish the copying and I thank somebody for letting me do so (I cant remember who this is but I think it may have been AT, another one of CM's friends and colleague. AT was also one of our business partners). CM walks past keeping himself at some distance from me. What I mean is that if we are walking past each other he would just stop walking or move back in a way that there is absolutely no way that we would even touch each other by accident. Even CM doesnt seem to question my presence there. He gives his friend and colleague his home number (22 75 or 22 45 I cant remember the remainder of the number) fax some stuff and walks out but Vinny doesn't catch the number. Vinny asks me his number and I ask him if it is the number here or the number in India. I think he says the number in India and I tell him that I dont have the number but I'll go look for CM and get the number. Although, I think I do wonder how am I going to ask CM the number considering the way he has been behaving. (Note: Now I have worked with CM before so I know the office layout but the layout is different. The actual office is a huge room with partitions set up across the room but the one in my dream has walls in pale green colour. This photocopier and the fax room are separated from CM's office and the rest of the floor by a passage.) I go looking for CM but I am just looking around and wondering what am I supposed to be doing there. I can't remember what am I there for. I am questioning myself and suddenly I see CM sitting in a room with someone through a window (I assume this is his room, its not in the same location as his actual room in the office is) and that reminds me that I am there to get the number for Vinny. I ask CM for the number in our language and he gives me the number again in our language (Note: we normally talk to each other in english or hindi, rarely ever in punjabi as I am not very fluent in it). Now this number he gave me I think is 22 45 (spoken as twenty two and forty five)coz I remember waking up and thinking 45 and 75 dont sound similar when spoken in our language. Note: I have one number of his which he gave me about 4 months ago so may be it stayed somewhere in my subconscious but if you wouldve asked me for the number before the dream I am 200% sure that I would not have been able to recall any part of the number not even what the number started with but the first four digits of this number are 2225. The other number that I found out about three days after the dream is in the name of his mother and the first two digits are 22 and the last two 45. Having come to know about the number now, I am inclined to go with the feeling that the numbers I dreamt were 22 and 45. Recall that I remember him giving me 22 and 45 as two numbers and not 4 digits. This has me really stumped that how could I dream of a number I have never known of. The next scene CM and I are standing in the passage. I think we are leaving the office and I am having a conversation with him. Do not recall the conversation but it doesnt seem like a conversation between two friends but between two people who well, share the history we share. (Note: Our history being that we were business partners and we were also seeing each other and then we broke up because of his personal problems with his family. He felt he needed to sort them out before he could even think of having a life and so he pretty much gave up on everything including the business.) There is a bit of awkwardness and hesitation which I imagine we would feel if we were to start talking to each other now given our history. It's sort of like I'm asking him how he's been and whats been happening with him. Suddenly SJ (CM's bald boss) comes up dressed as an Indian maharaja with a wig and all and he scares the hell out of me. (Note: SJ likes playing pranks on people). Instinctively I turn into CM and I move around him so that he acts as a shield. I am literally into him when I turn in. I havent yet realised that it is SJ. He follows me around as I move round and round CM trying to move away from this guy. CM puts his arms around me in a protective gesture to stop me and he is having a laugh and thats when I realise its SJ and I stop and stay in CM's arms. Next scene we are back in the same room I saw CM in when I went looking for him to get the number but the setting is different. This is someone's living room and there are three couples including us and an elderly lady (who I assume is the mother of the guy who owns the place). We are all having a casual time but there is a new relationship kind of feel between CM and me. Sort of like I don't want to mess up again and I have to be very cautious. The guy who owns the place is teasing Charan about what he was like when he was single. After some time, I get up to return a glass (I've had some tea) to the kitchen and take my leave. Everybody gets up, the other two girls also get up to leave. CM also gets up but he is going to stay back for a while longer with these people. We reach the door to the room and I think I hope I get along with the girls (Note: Vinny, CM's friend, and his girl friend had a fight and I was the one who got caught in the middle of it. It was the first time I had met Vinny's girl friend so that would explain why I wanted to be able to get along with his friends' girl friends). They did seem like very nice girls. I walk out of the room but instead of the passage there is road and I have to cross the road to get to the kitchen but this road seems familiar (I've been there before but I just can't remember). The building in front reminds me of CM's office although it doesnt look like it, neither does the road look like the road in front of CM's office its just the feeling that its the office. I didn't remember this when I wrote down the dream in the morning but I remember seeing street lights and a tram junction (I know this tram junction) and there is no one standing there. I just notice the lights. I think its sort of like I can take the tram back home from there. The kitchen is to my left this junction is behind me to the right. And well, then I wake up ... DREAM 3 I am having a conversation with one of CM's friend AS. We are out in an open field. He has either come to return some money to me or to tell me that he will coz I need it (Note: AS actually owes me some money). I become defensive and say to him, 'No, I don't need money. Who told you I need money?'. He says CM told him that I need money and I ask 'how does CM know I need money'. Next I tell him I need to sell my car (Note: I don't actually have a car in reality) and he buys it off me for $6000. It is a Toyota Camry. I give him all the stuff relating to the car and I need to tell him the name of the dealership where I bought the car from and I can't remember the name. The only names that come to mind are suburbs from Norway (Note: Toyota dealerships in Norway are named according to suburbs and my parents had a Toyota Carina when they were living in Norway). I think it cant be the name of the dealership since this is in Norway. Next he is checking something out, I am not sure if it is the car and I ask him if he and his wife have moved yet or if they are planning to and he says, 'no, we are not moving, no money!' and that he's had to take another job to take care of the money. Thanks for having the patience to read through it and for responding. Cheers, Pooja.
Re: Problem solving??? Is there a solution / message in ther In the first dream, the sense that CM is not at the same location as you is just a reflection of how you feel about him in real life, having split up with him. Him calling you up could represent your wish that you will get back together. I don't know what the words "kishan", "krishna" etc. mean in your dreams. Try and think if it sounds like another word or name you may have thought of. Maybe if you try to keep your mind as blank as possible, and then say the word over and over?
Thank you for responding to my message Marcia. I can't think of anybody with that name or any name thats even close to Kishan. I have sat and pondered about this one for weeks. What role does my mothers questions play in the dream? Does that have any significance? I guess we'll just have to wait and see what comes out of that one. I am curious about the interpretation of the second one though. Any thoughts on it. Cheers, Pooja.
There seems to be a fair number of different people involved in your dreams; a good place to start is to think about what these people mean to you, not just whether ort not you like them but rather what kind of person you think they all are. People in your dreams very often represent different aspects of yourself, so your kind aspect will show up in your dreams in the form of the person you think of as being the most kind; your happy side will be represented by someone you think of as being particularly happy etc. It doesn't have to be someone you know either, it could be someone from TV; someone who's died or just an idea of someone like Jesus, Bhudda, or Gandalf etc. Also what does India mean to you? Is that where you live or does it represent memories or an idea, is it connected with the Krishna thing: http://www.krishna.com/
I am indian so that explains my link to India. As for Lord Krishna, I am not a devout krishanite. Ram or Shiva yes, but krishna no so that I don't suppose thats the link. But if it is, whats the dream saying?
Re: Problem solving??? Is there a solution / message in ther I think that dreaming about searching for some place with KK, who you had thought of starting a business with, may symbolize a desire to start something new or change seomthing in your life. Having to pass an exam could have to do with some obstacle you feel you have have to pass before you can achieve what you want. Your thinking about which way to get home could signify confusion about which path to take in life. Since you want to go back home, it might have to do with a desire to change things back to the way they were in the past.
Hello again Marcia, I found your interpretation rather interesting. It may well be me wanting to turn the clock back. Cheers, Pooja.
