I had this dream in the middle of the night. It is somewhat vague. I am in the passenger seat of a car. A woman is driving. It is night time. We crash into an adult, a surf board and other things. I look out the windshield and see from the waist down, an adult wearing a pair of jeans and tennis shoes. He/she is on the ground in the middle of the road. I also see a surf board and other things by the person. I get out of the car to help. Instead of an adult, now it is a girl who is about 7-8 years old. I get her in our car in the back seat and put her seat belt on. She is okay. I feel nurturing towards her.
Day Notes: I was thinking of telling Kevin I would listen to his complaints about me and not give reasons/arguments, etc. However, yesterday, I didn’t want to do that and felt angry at him. I asked for a dream to answer the question: What action should I take with Kevin, if any?
I wonder your Jungian take on this, Bonnie. Surely it is a reply to your dream question. To me it seems that all of the three females are aspects of you. The driver who crashes at night (nightmares). “Drive” seems a verbal answer to “what action should I take?” Be in charge, but be very careful. My thought is that you want to protect yourself from these attacks from Kevin that occur in waking life. Maybe you the passenger are the observer of the driver and the injured. Self-healer too. “My dream” is not very clear but yours is!
Thanks, Denise, I like the idea that I am all three females. In some ways, the driver is my anger crashing into the person. Why a surf board? Something to ride on the surface of water/emotions? Me, as a passenger who wants to help the person who is run over, is the part of me who is concerned about Kevin and his depression. The young girl is the innocent, fragile part of me that I need to protect. I would really like a neutral, third person to hold space for us.
