Title: Two adult cats, a kitten and "my" cat attacks the other, in a basement
Post by: ToBeAware on February 27, 2011, 09:15:49 AM
Hello Tony, I will first tell about a dream long ago. It was a kitten, it wanted to come to it's mum, but the mum was on another side of a boxwall, she also tried to reach her kitten. I know both of this cats was me.
The situation in life was then an occasion on my work. I had made a decision for acting which made medial news and list from activists against the decision, it was in order with law, but could be seen unethical. The thing is that my bosses didn't support me, and I felt really alone and sad. After that the kitten/mum-cat dream came. I suppose it said I tried to find support from my adult me.

Now I have the feeling the cats in this dream is also me, but it could be different. I just don't understand from what feelings/occasion they come.

I am in a basement, it feels like ours but looks different, I see my cat, a male, chasing another female cat, he has hurt her a bit, and she is trying to be apart from him. I try to separate them and suddenly sees a kitten, also wounded on its stomach, I take it up to save it from my angry cat.

ToBeAware – I am not sure how this relates to your work situation, but it is fairly clear that you have been hurt. And the hurt is in the stomach area, and this usually relates to public attack to your vulnerability.

The kitten, well, there is an even more vulnerable you that was not, I guess, not having enough close contact with your mother. The boxwall situation suggests that you both wanted this but couldn’t manage it. And the male could be unwanted sexual attention, or the attack you felt mentioned above.

Thanks for answer, I don't feel the happenings in the two dreams relate to the same situations, even if some reasons of what feeling the dreams reflects could be similar. They are dreamt with about five years between. So I can't think the male cat in the basement has something to do with the work situation before the boxwall-dream.

So I try to remember my situation some days ago and recent. It could be what you say about unwanted sexual attention. I had a "flash-dream" or more a sight, where your book told me the same, just a few days before; After a short intimate situation it flashed: A door opened, not widely, bright light on the other side, a rat came running in to my side.

So then I´ll try to add the kitten with wounded stomach, I'll try to find out if I had some bad public feeling or similar, some day there around. Thanks for helping me. :)

Hi ToBeAware - I take your comments, but would like to say that even dreams ages ago can still relate to a present situation. About 40 years ago I helped a young woman explore a dream she had 18 years before. When she came to its meaning she said that in fact it was very much about the present, in that the present arose out of the past, and so was the creator of the present.

That is not to say my comments for you were on the mark.

Rats can sometimes depict a love that was betrayed, or intuitions about a person being a ‘rat’ - doing things behind your back or underhandedly - or deserting a relationship when difficulties arise.

Just thinking aloud.
