Powermad - I think I will have to do this a bit at a time and see if it makes any sense. So first of all, the Christ figure.
As the meeting with Christ didn’t knock you down on your knees I am guessing you met the Christ to do with either your feelings of the moral norm that is a pressure on, or your feelings about the Christian religion. I suspect that the lava pool was an image you felt represented hell; yet it can also depict your core self that one can dive into. And being upside down is saying you have an upside down view of where you are in life at the moment. Or it could mean your view of life has to be turned upside down to see the reality of things.
Somewhere I have a feeling that you are trying too hard, and it need not be like that. Certainly hell is of ones own making, so the idea about your uncle could be right.
That Christ showed signs of wear, suggests what I said above about Christ. Maybe your sense of the Christ was wearing thin. Wearing so thin that you begin to enlarge your view of Christ – it is a multidimensional being, and also is whole being – both male and female. In recent years there have been books about the rise of the Goddess. They say that the feminine principle is needed now to counteract the male influence. Considering that Christ is always shown as a male shows this. In other cultures the male and female are part of a whole. It is the whole being that we need. It was said that the Goddess would bring peace, but there are terrible goddesses such as Kali who eats her own children.
That She is in the clock is a clever way of saying you have trapped her in your sense of time. Your core self is beyond time and space, so you needed to release her. Then the glowing red eyes and all the other paraphernalia you got past through waking up to the realisation that nothing can cause you any harm – except your own fears – or eve a false identification with your physical body, locked as it is in time, space and form.
As for the black figure, maybe you are still identifying with the image of yourself as you are and look in your body. Just a thought.
So the dream is the moving into a realisation of yourself as multidimensional being – but still getting caught up with the old three dimensional self.
I AM
I AM – Pure Consciousness
Pure Consciousness – Without Form
Without Form – I Existed Before Time Began
THAT Created Time
With it Came Change
So Pure Consciousness Became Involved in Time and Change
Out of the Chaos Time and Change brought forth Forms
Pure Consciousness, involved in time and Change
Took on Form
So the Highest and Lowest Merged
Pure Consciousness Married Form
The Marriage brought Darkness
To Ease the Burden of Darkness
Death came upon Form
And Pure Consciousness Knew itself in Death
Until the next Involvement with Form
Through such Involvement Pure Consciousness
Learned Creation
That Creation was called Life
While Pure Consciousness had Infinite Potential
It had to Learn to Manifest its Potential
