Christine – What have you been up to – or not been up to – to dream such dreams?
The theme seems to be not be able to do what you feel urged to do, supposed to do, or know you ought to do.
I have the feeling of a missed opportunity. You missed the boat – paralysed and not being able to climb aboard – and dancing with the black woman, who you obviously are in part of the dream. Have you glimpsed something exciting and beautiful that you missed out on?
Then you enter the unconscious – a truly skilful thing – but I wonder whether you needed to deal with the alligator and octopus first before climbing the ladder.
Then you are literally stuck somewhere, and so go through a struggle about your sexual self. The black woman, I believe, is the full sexual woman that you are, that you need to dance with and integrate. The fact that you dreamt all this is a sign that there is real progress and you are facing the difficulties shown. The next step is to break through – the breakthrough is coming!!
