I am leaving on a plane that takes off at 6 p.m. I am leaving the place I am staying at to Deb. I am not sure if I own this place or have been renting it. Sheila L. is around. She shows me something she made that is in a box. It is very creative.
I bring a purple bag of my things outside. I tell Deb the second bedroom is not being used. so the woman Deb was to stay with could stay there. (now it feels like is my place)
At one point I go outside and I see this group of 9-10 older women sitting on the wall that runs along my place. They have all this “greenery” on their heads that takes the place of their hair. It is wild and messy. They are all smiling and happy. I go to get my phone to take photos of them. It takes me awhile. I am having trouble getting the camera to work. When I go back the women are gone. They have gone into a bar and restaurant.
(there is a dog that keeps getting out of my place and needs to be put back inside). I am getting grumpy. I am to help Deb’s friend get her bed from the other place. I have my red Toyota. I think I can get it in there. However, it gets too late. I say I have to go or I will miss my plane. I look for my purple bag and find it outside. I tell one of the neighbor women that I have to go and leave for the airport.
Sequel: (I have this sequel later that night). I talk to a man who owns the house where the woman’s bed is about me using my Toyota to pick it up. I reckon we can take the frame apart and get it into the car (I don’t think about the mattress!). Deb has a trailer, but she has left it in Minneapolis. The house with the bed is under construction. It feels like it is located on Willmatt Hill. (neighborhood where I grew up)
I am with Jeanne G. We go into the house. Deb and her friend are in the house, but we do not see them. We head downstairs (basement). Jeanne is ahead of me and goes down to a lower level and then comes up a level. (2 basement levels). We meet on the first level where there is a large, red pump. It is for pumping water out of the house. The house is built on wetlands.
I worked this dream with The Dreamsters. It was a great session. Here is what I wrote: If this were my dream, I am moving to a different plane. Deb and Sheila represent a part of my past. I have and want to move to a deeper soul level. It is difficult to leave my old role of “comforter” (bed). I feel obligated to make sure Deb does not feel abandoned. I think this dream is pointing this out-that my fear of abandonment is holding me back . (old complex). If I abandon my role, I might be abandoned. Or, I might not know who I am without my role. After, the family reunion (July 4th of this year, where the camera didn’t work well like this dream) I got the message that it is time to let go of my role of being the “perfect” member of the family and in my relationships. I look at the women with the vegetation hair as my welcoming committee.
Other insights from the Dreamster members:
Deb and Sheila are like family because I have know them for 45 years (so I am playing my same familiar role). I made the decision to move to another plane. It is time to take flight. The purple bag represents magic and/or my spirituality (crown chakra). And it is time to carry wisdom and my magical self forward. The bag also suggests that I pack lightly. There are 9-10 women on the wall=completion. Having difficulty with my camera represents having a difficult time picturing myself being like the women. The wall the woman are sitting on represents good boundaries and protection. The vegetation on the women’s heads represent strength and new, spring growth. I have difficulty seeing the strength in me. (trouble with camera). The dog is another responsibility I am taking on. I feel resentful. Put that “loyalty” like the dog, from my past away. The dog wants out. He could represent not wanting to be controlled anymore and wanting to play. The old, small house does not fit anymore. My old ways of being a giver and making room for others doesn’t fit anymore. I need masculine energy to build something new. I need to release two layers (levels) of unconscious, past emotions. It is time to use the pump. The red pump also represents my heart chakra. The old house is my old persona. I have friends that will join me on my new plane. I don’t want to be late. (I am 75 and there isn’t much more time on this plane) I need to leave behind old friends, memories, grief and old feelings of responsibilities from the past. I desire to be cherished and honored.
