I had these two dreams a day apart from each other. 1. I was on a snow covered cliff with other people who I don't remember, I did not want to get close to the edge but everyone else insisted on it. When I did I looked down and there was a river and off to the left in the middle of the river was a crumbling old building. When I looked at the building it began to collapse even more until it disappered into the water. 2. I was in an SUV in the back seat the other people in the car I do not remember. We were traveling on a snow covered road in the middle of nowhere. Just trees and snow around. The SUV lost control and we wrecked. I was okay but had an injury to the back of my neck. There was a big lump on the back of my neck that I noticed as I started walking away from the accident. When I woke up from this dream I was under my covers but was shivering uncontrolably and continued to shiver as I got up to get a drink. I was so cold that I bundled myself up in the covers when I returned to bed. Temperature in my house was 74 degrees. These dreams were so vivid. Does anyone have any suggestions as to the meaning???
In addition to being a response to a possible physical condition (your having a fever), these dreams could also be about emotions that you have been repressing and don't want to face. Like other forms of water, snow in dreams is associated with emotions. Because snow is a cold, frozen form of water, snow often represents emotions that have been repressed. In the first dream, you are afraid of getting close to the edge of a cliff. A cliff can represent a new level of awareness and understanding. The fact that you are afraid to get close to the edge implies that you want to avoid knowing something. The river below you represents your emotions after they have been "unfrozen", that is, after you face the things you have been avoiding. The crumbling building can represent old beliefs that are being destroyed by the thing you have been avoiding. The second dream seems to mean that you are feeling out of control. Dreaming that you neck is injured can indicate a conflict between your rational and emotional sides. This may explain why you have been repressing your emotions. Since you woke up shivering even though it was quite warm in your room, it's possible that during the second dream you had a slight fever and were experiencing a chill, which is why you dreamed about snow. It's common to have vivid dreams when you have a fever.
