I have had some seriously messed up dreams ever since I can remember, but they've recently turned into full-on nightmares. Here are some of them:
DREAM 1
I was in a store and I couldn't find my mom, who I had come there with. I asked the store clerk if she had seen my mom, and she said she left a long time ago. So, I walked outside and down the street. The buildings had black and white checkers painted on them, and everything seemed to move in a very hypnotizing way. There was a couple sitting on a bench, and they were kissing. As I approached them, the man turned towards me and revealed that he was not kissing the lady, he was actually eating. her. face. So, I ran. I ran as fast as I could until I found a very big, fluffy looking dog that was lying on it's side. I gave the dog a hug because I was tired from running, and then the dog turned over on it's side to reveal that he was cut in half.
DREAM 2
I was at the theater, watching some play. My friend, (who I don't think I know in real life.) suddenly ran off. I ran after her, and we both ran out side. It was very dark outside, and the only light we had was neon lights from a gas station. I could hear nothing but droning noises that seemed to be coming from a vending machine. They got very loud at one point, and then my friend ran behind the gas station. I ran after her, but found her lying in a pool of her own blood, as if she had been bleeding for a very long time.
I've had MANY more nightmares, but none as vivid and terrifying as those two. Any thoughts on why I've been having these??
The same thing happens to me but I always have a dream before I wake up
I only saw this single part in my dream about some boy walking out of a closet and he had a bag over his face and then the girl saying "don't take the bag off" and then the bag flew off and the guys face was all messed up and the girl was like "I played with his face" or something and then I felt a hand around my stomach in real and woke up to that and no one was there
First off, I will tell you some dreams, especially nightmares, are just dreams influenced by negative emotions or even watching too many horror movies (which sounds like might be the case for the first dream). But, if we put that aside and explore each dream, this is personally some ideas I have.
Dream one:
As for the couple, it sounds like it may be a personal view you have on love. That one person hurts another. Maybe you have been hurt in a relationship before and this is a result of it (I don't know you, so I can't really say, thats just what it seems like to me).
With the dog...Honestly, I would have freaked out if I dreamt of something that horrible. I'm not sure what the hell that could mean really... But I suppose if I think about it, you did say you were going to hug the dog. It could mean that you don't feel like anyone is able to support you, or that you feel like you have hurt people, or that you feel like someone close to you is hurting.
Dream Two:
Honestly, my first thought of reading this is a past life memory. especially since you didn't know the person in "real life". It kind of sounds like she was murdered to me... Thats the only real thing I can come up with that one. Usually with past lives, the first couple of memories you'll have are usually rather traumatic, sometimes of death of yourself or someone close to you.
Like I said though, dreams don't always mean something more. So don't get too worked up over it.
You may have found a satisfactory response to your dreams already, but if I may let you in on what I noticed from your dreams.
Sometimes dreams are our subconscious trying to prepare us for what lies ahead. It seems to me like someone close to you is hiding something from you and will try and run away from telling you. when you eventually discover the truth, you will end up feeling betrayed or lied to by that person because of what they are hiding.
This may be an opportunity to prepare for this, prepare yourself for disappointment but also forgiveness. I hope I could help.
in dream ONE the first thing i notice is that you may actually feel like you did not receive the time and attention from your mother that you needed/wanted as a child(assuming you are either an adult or teenager)or that your mother was withdrawn from your life all together so you think she does not care for you and would forget you in the store which could be a resemblance of your childhood (aka your mother was absent in your childhood or something like that) then the hypnotic movements and checkered houses are more than likely telling you that you had to put on an act everyday and make people think that you and your family were happy and the checkered house could be that there was a false happiness that had no real energy to it like giving you a Popsicle tube and it having little to no flavored ice in it then the people on the bench shows something that happened in your life and did not move on and the man eating the woman's face off was probably someone you knew that was abusing their significant other and you had been witness to it but were not sure what it meant at the time then you running away from them means that you did not think that this was the kind of behavior that you wanted to pick up so you found comfort (big fluffy dog) but that comfort was already dead before you got to it or did not comfort you in the way that you needed
Dream TWO the fact that you were in a theater watching a play probably means that you and this friend to be or maybe friend that is, is not who they say they are putting on a play for you then at the point you realize that it is a play they try to run and hide from you so that you can't confront them and the noise is to distract you or make you frustrated so you wont pursue them the neon light could have significance like she gives off pretty colors or is giving off something that is not normally seen and the gas station is a relief on a long road to be traveled except instead of relief she finds an end to her current facade that will leave her in a worse state than she was or it could be that she was putting on a play to fool you but you find out what it is and then her facade is ruined because you know the truth and the her you once knew is now a new person that you do not know but the blood could symbolize something strong to come an event more than likely that will have a significant effect on you or her or maybe even both of you and if she was bleeding a long time then more than likely she had been unknowingly been giving this event energy(through the lies) to happen the way it did
TOTAL ANALYSIS:
remember that this is only an interpretation and is based on my experiences in life and these could have meaning or just be your mind going haywire because you have had a lot of things go on in your life interpretation of dream ONE most likely points to abuse if you have experienced that in your life then go to a psychiatrist and get on the proper medications because saying your fine and not be has serious effects on your health dream TWO came from a supposed friend that wasn't actually who they said they were in my life a have experienced some of these types of peoples
I don't think that you feeling a hand on your stomach is a supernatural thing iamamber, I feel stuff like that alot like probably a couple nights every week almost when I'm like half asleep I feel something punching me then I get up thinking it's my brother (he is constantly attacking me) but no ones there. I'm pretty sure it's just a normal thing.
If you are looking for a good place to interpret your dreams, I suggest using the 'dream interpretation' feature offered on this site. It is great and helps me understand many of my dreams. Another great book is 'Dreams-- Your Magic Mirror' by Elise Sechrist. Good luck.
