Dream #1: Journey to the West

Situation: I had difficulty finding a job and suffered from insomnia for a certain period of time. During a meditation, I received the following question: “What was my life like as a teenager?

Thinking back, when I was a teenager, my father died during this period. My mother, after a slight cold, was paralyzed and had to go to a psychiatric hospital for a short time. She then suffered several strokes. Today, she is in a nursing home and has to use a wheelchair.

When family members discovered she had money, many of them wanted access to her money. I tried as much as possible to limit the requests (even though everything is decided in her will), as I wasn't sure their intentions were good.

Speaking of me, I used to go out a lot, I was addicted to games, porn, I ate badly, I liked “creepypasta” *(horror-related fictional legends which are shared around the Internet to scare people).

Dream: While at school, during a superpower war, I met my martial arts teacher (difficulty controlling emotions) on the 2nd floor, which made me feel safe. I entered a bathroom, which had many narrow, diagonal toilets with no doors.

Change of Scene: I was with Danh (seeking artificial paradise) and his brother (emotional coldness), it was night time. We were going to their house, they had their own motorbike and they drove fast and left me behind, which made me sad.

The scene changes to my hometown (lack of sweetness and self-esteem) with heavy rain. I only heard their instructions to go straight and turn left. When I turned left, the rain stopped and turned into a gloomy afternoon, I’m in front of Danh's house and meet Pat (lack of joy, rigid).

His house is big, modern and the front yard is as wide as a square. Danh's father (aggressive) guided me to park my bike by going through the short "I" shaped bridge, followed by the "U" shaped one, next to Pat's precarious old electric bike. Next to it was a staircase leading to a basement, but the entrance was small and dark.

Inside, the house was old with green walls and red plastic chairs. We sat down, some of us wore Wukong masks, and watched. "Journey to the West" together.

In the film, Wukong* is resting in a room in the palace (Chinese palace style) and the Emperor of Heaven tricks him into drinking poison, but when the Emperor comes out, he is tricked back by Wukong.

Dream #2: Stuck in a room by Cupid

Dream: I was giving my dog a shower when I saw a broken human-shaped glass toy.

A cupid showed up and took away my toy, I grabbed the Cupid and he dragged me into a room.

Cupid is gone, I saw a door slightly open and beyond it there’s a light, I can't open it and get out. Now I'm really scared, like in a horror movie where I'm trapped forever inside a room. 

Cupid came back in the room, I’m trying to attack it to escape, to force it to bring me back, but it’s just worse because every time I try to attack Cupid, it only gets bigger. Then I punch the wall in desperation.

Dream #3: Arranged marriage

Dream: I saw that it was daytime and I was with a girl who resembled Nicole.

It seems like her mother and my mother were talking about our marriage. She was happy to know this, but I was confused and not sure.

I thought no one had asked me whether I wanted to get married to her or not. I was also thinking about compatibility and whether she was right for my Soul's evolution or not.

Then I saw that I was on a subway train, and it seemed I was going to the office. There were other employees also.

The subway train took a wrong turn and path that took us to a place that I knew was not the right one, and we would be required to make a U-turn from that place to get back on the right path.

The train driver was confused, and it seemed he was seeking help in finding the right direction.

I don't remember exactly, but it seemed like I helped him to find the right path.

*Nicole : work colleague, unstable thoughts, dispersed, unpredictable, too many needs, lacks focus.
