Hi Folks,
Thought i might chuck this one out there for ideas. I started having this dream when i was around 16; I'm now 28. The dream has evolved over time. It used to be about animals, such as pets but now it is about babies. (I don't have a child, but we are "trying" currently)
So... I have a pet/baby. I am trying to show it something (a toy, a game etc) but whatever I am doing goes horribly wrong, and winds up inadvertantly causing a massive, gory injury. I spend the rest of the dream trying to rectify my mistake, but it just gets worse, the pet/baby winds up in worse pain, even dead, as a result of my actions.
I'll give you an example. In one, I dreamt that I was showing a talking kitten (lol) a view, and we were in a rooftop garden. i was holding the kitten against the rails, but they fell, and wound up being impaled on a wooden stake. I ran down and tried to get it off, but it just made it worse...
They are pretty unpleasant dreams. And graphic. (ew)
Any ideas? What's all this about???

Perhaps it is saying that you are too giving to others which causes more harm to them, then if you let them help themselves?... That was my go at it. :grin:
Nay
Yeah that actually sounds pretty accurate to me nay. I think the gist of it is that you worry too much about other people. Worry less. Oh and that one about the kitten? ouch! That's disturbing!
I had dreams like that when I was pregnant and when my son was an infant- I believe in my case it was fear of screwing up royally. Maybe your insecurity is so that you are afraid of having others depend on you?
Maybe it represents a fear of doing/trying new things :question:
Hmm... interesting... I don't know that it is about "giving too much" to the point where it's harmful to others... I think I used to do that when I was younger, but I am ultra-conscious of it now. CFTravelor - what you say resonates with me... the idea of stuffing up, perhaps. Not meaning to hurt others, but doing it anyway? Guilt? Or maybe not protecting myself properly, like what is vulnerable within me. That would probably make sense too.
Thanks for feedback guys... what is interesting is the way these dreams have changed over the years. Anyone else have a recurring dream that has evolved over time??
