Sad Dreams
I had the strangest, saddest dream I've had in a while. I was in this group of people and we were talking about their problems/ailments, when suddenly my right hand is hurting and I start opening and closing it (like you do when your hand feels stiff) and they start telling me I can't bend my fingers (in particular, my middle, ring, and pinky fingers). I say why and thay say don't you remember, you have cancer in your fingers and they discovered you can release cancerous particles into the air if you bend those 3 fingers! Well, I just start crying because I'm imagining having my fingers cut off and all the things I won't be able to do, that I only do well with my right hand. Like painting and bowling. It was sad.
Then, I have another dream where I'm at this ocean and I'm supposed to go swimming with sharks with a friend (it was one of those dreams where you are supposed to know people, but they don't look like anyone you know in real life). She dives in and all of a sudden these fins are swimming around and I just freak out! I scramble back into the boat and start panicking and finally get the boat back to shore. When I get to the beach house, there are all these people there and there are these 2 brothers (twins) that walk around on these really tall stilts. Well, one of them is really extra nice and kind of shy and we get to talking, but I accidentally break something of his and I feel really bad about it, but he's nice about it. I get around to asking why they are on stilts and he shows me. They were both born without their legs! So, they just made themselves really tall because it was fun. But the weirdest thing is that he had real legs, knee to foot, at the bottom of the stilts. I asked him if the legs grew separate from his body in the womb (even though in reality, I know that doesn't happen) and he just looked at me and then I woke up. So weird, but that was sad, too.
what the heck was going on in my mind last night?
For the first dream, here is some interpretation:
From Dream Moods Dictionary
To see your fingers in you dream, symbolizes physical and mental dexterity. They indicate manipulation, action and non-verbal communication. If you dream that your fingers fall off, then it suggests that you are letting a situation dominate you or dictate how you behave. You may be literally losing your grip on life.
To dream that your fingers are injured or have been chopped off, denotes your anxieties about your ability to accomplish some demanding task or perform in some waking situation.
To dream about your little finger, represents mental power, intellect, memory, and the power of communication.
To dream of your middle finger, denotes prudence, practicality, caution, responsibility, and hard work. Alternatively, the middle finger may symbolize the phallus.
To dream of your ring finger, represents success, popularity and creativity, It also has association with marriage, union, and commitments.
To dream that you have cancer, denotes hopelessness, grief, self-pity, and unforgiveness. You feel you are wasting your life away. This dream also represents areas in your life which are bothering you, disturbing you, and hurting you in some emotional way.
To dream of your hands, represents your relationship to those around you and how you connect with the world. Hands serve as a form of communication.
To dream that you hands are injured, denotes an attack on your ego.
Second Dream:
To see a shark in your dream, represents a person whom you see as greedy and unscrupulous. This person goes after what what he or she wants with no regards to the well-being and sensitivity of others. The shark may also be an aspect of your own personality which exhibit these qualities. Alternatively, you may be going through a difficult, painful, or unpleasant emotional period. The shark symbolizes feelings of anger, hostility, and fierceness. You may be an emotional threat to yourself or to others.
To dream that you are swimming, suggests that you are exploring aspects of your unconscious mind and emotions. The dream may be a sign that you are seeking some sort of emotional support. It is a common dream image for people going through therapy.
To dream that you are swimming underwater, suggests that you are completely submerged in your own feelings. You are forcing yourself to deal with your emotional difficulties.
To dream that you are in a panic, indicates a lack of control and power in your life. You may be feeling helpless in some situation or unable to make a clear decision.
To see the beach in your dream, symbolizes the meeting between your two states of mind. The sand is symbolic of the rational and mental processes while the water signifies the irrational, unsteady, and emotional aspects of yourself. It is a place of transition between the physical/material and the spiritual.
To dream that you are on the beach and looking out toward the ocean, indicates unknown and major changes that are occurring in your life. Consider the state of the ocean, whether it is calm, pleasant, forbidding, etc. (When I got back to the beach, and looked out at the ocean, it was full of sharks and big waves)
To dream that you are looking toward the beach, suggests that you are returning to what is familiar to you. Alternatively, you may be adapting or accepting to the changes and circumstances in your life.
To dream that you break something, indicates that changes are ahead for you. You want to change the direction that your life is headed. Alternatively, it suggests that you need to take things slower.
I couldn't find anything about legs on another person or stilts on another person, so that sucks. But according to these interepretations, I need therapy or something. I hope I'm okay.
