Dream Interpretation / Re: Bottom Step is Alligator
« on: August 05, 2011, 10:13:18 PM »
I feel alot of fear associated with alligators in my dreams; they appear regularly. In the past, I have been inclined to interpret as hidden danger, but interesting to think about fertility because of the pregnancy dream I had the same week (another post).
I wondered about the theme of "leaving" too: dismissed students and they left, I left, stepping down, my husband left later - hidden concerns about retirement? Leaving my all-consuming job and re-entering a time shared as a couple? Am I going at this way too literally?
With the fertility idea, and leaving behind my students (my "kids"), could it be related to thinking about entering menopause sometime in my future?
Do I view my female powers as somehow dangerous to my husband, hurtful even, and is that where the guilt comes in?
Hmmmmm....lots to think about. Anyone have ideas?
