I'm always ecstatic to hear other people's dreams especially when they're from someone so close. 

In her dream I am in her room naked and she panics because someone is there.  She is frantically trying to find my boxers.  In the living room she finds her children's grandmother sitting on the couch also naked and very comfortable in her nakedness. 

The real life situation:  The man who fathered her two girls is serving time for drug-related crimes involving meth.  He knew he was going to spending time and before he had to leave he proposed to her.  He wanted to marry her before he had to go away but she wasn't ready.  Anyways, she is living with his mom and stepfather and her two girls.  We've been seeing each other for a couple of months now.  Understandably, his mother is upset about us being in a relationship.  Her son seems to want to work things out, still.  It seems that she (my gf) is the main thing keeping him motivated while in prison.  Problem is that he was lousy to her for the majority of the time they were together (6 years).  It wasn't until the last few months before he had to leave for prison that he started to straighten up.  I realize that I may look boneheaded for getting myself into this, but my life has become so much richer since she came into it.

Anna the Dreamer – I think the dream is about looking at yourself as a form of evaluation. You and the student who is examined is two aspects of you. This becomes clear as the dream unfolds.

The Kipa so an attitude or a set of beliefs you try on but it doesn’t fit you, meaning that those beliefs you have outgrown, and you awareness has now enlarged.

The woman student I have to guess is a way of clarifying the relationship with that part of you – a relationship that occurred in connection with school.

The last part about prison is again telling the story that it felt like prison to the part of you that created the attitudes or beliefs represented by the Kipa.

PS Have you read the extension of Techniques for dream exploration - http://dreamhawk.com/dream-dictionary/practical-techniques-for-understanding-your-dreams/  - where it says Writing it all down – don’t be fooled, it can work?

Joy – Well it isn’t a nice happy dream, and as the prophet said you should pray. Prayer can change the future. Use it and pray with all your heart.

I keep having this reoccuring dream that I am back teaching in a classroom. I used to be a teacher a year ago and am quite content not being a teacher and I love my current job. I was just wondering why I keep having the same dream that I'm back in my classroom with the same students and I'm teaching them. In everyone of my dreams I'm always afraid of the principal coming in and observing me...because in my dream I'm never prepared for the day...I'm just winging it .. And I'm not like that in real life...in every dream it's like I'm never prepared... I just want to get rid of these dreams they are annoying... I have been having them for over 6 months.

Last night I dreamed that my cousin (like a sister) came in to my classroom (I was a student in the dream attending class - I'm not a student, I'm 43 with my own business).  She had 5 rattlesnakes in her hand.  I took one of them and it struck me on the top of my left hand.  I remember determining in my dream this was a non-poisonous rattlesnake and was showing her my puncture wounds from the snake bite.  The wound was barely visible fairly soon.  She release the snakes in to the classroom where they scattered quite quickly.  I remember wondering where they were and if they would surface as all the other classmates came in.

Now...in reality, recently (less than a month ago) my cousin's son died; he was 20.  I am very close to my cousin and think of her as a sister and him as my nephew.  My daughter and I both flew to Az to be at the funeral.  I felt bad because I didn't get to spend much time with my cousin (due to her being heartbroken over this awful thing).  Also, last night (when I had the dream) I went to bed thinking I had made a mistake with a client's books.  I HATE making mistakes!  Please help me interpret this dream.  Thank you.

On updating the book and site....I hope you are able to take some rest and relaxation for yourself!

Anna The Dreamer – Hashish is usually a way to release unconscious content, but it depends what you associate with it.  You have listed some of the associations, but to get to the right one you might use http://dreamhawk.com/dream-encyclopedia/association-of-ideas-with-dreams/#Working – or - http://dreamhawk.com/dream-dictionary/practical-techniques-for-understanding-your-dreams/

Tony,

Thank you :-)
