Subject: very mixed up dream

Anne

08:34 30/09/2001 

I was sitting in a waiting room and this older woman GP came in with my mother in tow and told me I was pregnant. I did not argue but did wonder how. They then left to go back to her rooms which were a fair distance away.

Later I went to pick up my mother at the doctor’s rooms. She wasn’t there and I got the impression from the receptionist that the GP wasn’t either.

I walked out of the doctor’s rooms and found I had to climb up some steep steps, which were fairly wide, rough sandstone with maybe tree roots running across them. The steps had very wide tops and short risers and had some trees around them.

It was at this point I thought my car was missing. I thought that whoever was driving my car had my mother as his passenger.

As I got to the top of the steps, the picture seemed to change, almost as though I had missed something, and I seemed a long way away from where the steps were, and seemed to be walking around the big block. I knew I had to walk back and found myself walking along the left hand side of a road, back to where I thought I had to go. It seemed miles I was walking: I was walking on grass and was alone. There were houses along this road on the left, at least and there seemed to be a main road. I knew I had to get to as far as I could see below the brow of the hill.

Then I was a passenger in a car looking for my car along some narrow streets in a different area. I thought I saw it in a street to my left, backing into a parking spot. So I directed the driver to turn down the next street on the left. He missed the first street on the left and took the second leading back to where I thought I saw my car. When we got back to the car, it turned out just to look like mine but had the wrong number plate. I was wondering why there was another car just like mine, when my car was one of a kind (which it is).

We were then in this big building with a lot of passages, still looking for my car and my mother. This building seemed to be where I was heading at the furthest part along the road I mentioned earlier, where I was walking on the grass.

We walked up a dark steep passage but found nothing. I was walking down another sloped passage, wood walled and covered over in wood, when we saw an opening on our right. The whole building seemed to be wood. Walking out this opening we found we had to climb up this framework to get back to where we came in, like another passage but in the open air.

My mother was now lagging behind, but I think she might have been there following along in this building. The man climbed up and I was next. I found it very difficult but he was trying to help me. I turned to my mother and told her to go back into the other passage and go out that way, as she wouldn’t be able to climb up here, and that we would meet her out there. I turned and found I had climbed up but had to get across floor bearers as there was no floor.

Hello Anne!

I recently had a dream about being in a doctor's waiting room too - but first my thoughts on your dream.

You dreamt about trying to find your mother and finding your car? Hehehhe - have you recently had trouble finding your car in the car park?

Your mother gave birth to you - starting your journey - the point of every one's beginning. She tells you that you are pregnant - perhaps its time for rebirth of new views? You are going to give birth - give birth to beginnings as well...

You also dream about trying to find your car - hearing that you say your car is one of a kind - in some ways, your car is important to you - this might represent how you are going to travel on this new journey to reach the final destination - which you have already begun by climbing steps and walking along long roads.

Your mother cannot follow you up the wall...have you had new aspirations that your mother might not approve...(of course these are all of my own suggestions because I have no idea of your relationship with your mother - these are purely My thoughts - don't take them personally of course)

I wonder what wood means though? building of wood?

the floor bearers with no floor seem pretty obvious to represent unstable ground - do you feel confident and balanced on top of the beams?

wonder if my thoughts affect your personal analysis? Let me know - thanks!

Hi Anne,

This is a really interesting dream and I could sit here for ages with it but will just throw a few things in I clearly see.

Generally speaking I have found Mothers to symbolise nurturing - may help to look at how your mother nurtured or didn't nurture you and what you learned about nurturing from her.

Like Tingting I also see pregnancy as about to give birth to something new in your life that you are presently waiting (the waiting room) to bring into the world.

Also see that maybe healing (the GP) needs to occur first in relation to your concepts of nurturing, or any mother/other issues which would have been passed onto you by your mother as the GP and your mother both disappear. The GP is also an older woman, so I definitely see that feminine issues are at the fore.

Perhaps it is time for some of those concepts to go as you can't find your mother or the GP - General Practitioner reminds me of a general way of being/they are no longer serving you which is why they disappear and can't make the climb with you/ time to be alone/ time to rise above them.

I see your mother and your car being linked as you can't find either. Perhaps your concepts of nurturing have been driving you/motivating you and it is time to look at a new way of being towards Self and others. That you say your car is one of a kind reiterates to me that you yourself are one of a kind, unique and special.

That tree roots are present indicates to me a need for grounding, can also represent family tree or the root of the issue.

You mention going back several times in the dream - is there something you are looking back on or need to look back at and reflect on/let go of.

You also mention being alone - perhaps the dream is showing you that it is time for you to be alone, to spend some time with yourself.

Wood again like the roots naturally comes from trees and what they symbolise to you, can provide a barrier, shelter,insulation and can sometimes appear as a pun for "would". Wood is also a raw/natural material.

And lastly passageways are not disimilar to birth canals.

Hope some of that helps.

Anne

Thank you Tingting* & Star for your input. My mother died some 8 yrs ago & relationship wise, all I can say that she had an illness that prevented her from thinking properly. In that state of mind, I don't think that she would approve of anything anyone did, she would have taken anything personally. Her death was a relief from the pain & misery she was in & she wasn't young.

I don't take anything that people say personally nowadays, unless they're really having 'a go' at me & being insulting, but I know you're only trying to help, so I don't take it personally.

Couldn't miss my car in a car park, but worried about it every time I leave it in a car park for any long period. By the way, I didn't have this car when my mother was alive, same colour as the one I did have.

As I remember, I was on my hands & knees on the bearers when I awoke. The roots across the steps seemed to be part of the sandstone in the steps. I do a lot of research on the family tree & I am researching the outer branches & twigs at the moment, but have left off research for the last couple of weeks for medical reasons. Just had a thought, I seemed to be at the back of the land where the doctors rooms & stairs were situated.

I would prefer to be out in the open air at any time, but don't remember whether I was comfortable in those passages. Have the feeling I've seen these wooden passages before (not in a dream), but can't remember where or when. It would have been a very old building, similar to an old flour mill I have been in, but that was bluestone on the outside, also another building in another town. But neither of those areas were the same as the dream, as the road I was walking along seemed to be outer metropolitan.

Hi Anne - seems to me from what you are saying here you are missing the point. It's essential with all dream work to look at each thing as representing a symbolic aspect of Self.
