Dream interpretation

This is a dream journal. The intention behind it is to also give interpretations on the recorded dreams. In my experience, much of the dream content is prophetic and can be linked to events following the night of dreaming.
Throughout the year 2013 I will keep to the discipline of recording my dreams every morning and interpreting them every evening. That way, people may start to get a feel of how dream symbolism works.

Enigmatic Black Building

1. Underwater Basketball

We arrive in a training hall, big and at first empty. We are a team. Someone throws a ball at me. It immediately becomes clear that we are going to play, or are playing, basketball. Suddenly, there's more people, but we stick to playing with our own team members. Many balls are thrown about. They are hard, as they should be, but I'm not used to it. And they look grey, instead of red, a dull grey.
Then the scene moves to another hall, which is on the other side. People are already playing and maybe waiting for us. One of us takes the lead, and while many other teams are waiting on the side, we consequently are led into the middle. It is a girl who takes the lead. She takes action without considering much, unlike me. I follow nonetheless, trying to trust.
Then the scene changes again, and we are underwater. A very big hall or aquarium. Filled with water, and we play completely underneath the surface. I wonder if I have to go up to the surface, but I don't see anyone else do this.
Maybe the same dream. I see people around me under water, some are human, but others are not. And those who are not can obviously breathe underwater. I ask one guy with short hair, tall, and it appears that they can breathe underwater as well as above.

2. List

Something with a long list. Table of two or three columns, about two or three pages long. Important data, to me. I carry it with me. Dark.

3. Wolf Attack

Long dream, but I remember only fragments.
We are in the south of France but possibly in a time that is in the future, although sometimes it looks or feels like we are back in time. I only see the landscape, green, hills, wide (This is a type of dream I've had many times before, but it has been a long time since).
We are informed about a threat, we don't believe it right away, because the distance is still great and we don't see any immediate threat, but a map is brought out and the wolves are pointed out as black dots on the green land on the map. Packs of wolves are moving in. And they are intelligent. They move south (So they come from Belgium). The dots on the map look like tiny bugs or ticks, they seem to me the bloodsucking type, representing the danger of the wolves. They look like real animals, only very tiny. One of them is bigger. This is not a tick but rather a caterpillar, although still very small.
The scene changes to a real place, somewhere in the fields. I don't remember how I got there. There is a deserted building in the field, there's woods around too, but at the front door is space, a clearing. The building looks to me as if it comes from outer space or evidences an alien civilization. It is black, but shiny, as if some kind of metal, or a material that does not appear on Earth.
Things happen that I can't remember. I'm sure that at some point I am inside. At another point, later in the dream though, I am outside of it and considering of entering it, while a girl or woman comes up to me and explains things to me, which makes me hesitate if entering is a good idea. At that point, there is another building on the right, but behind us. This looks rather like an abandoned space ship. Black as well. We go in there.
There's all kinds of cryptic things in the dream that I can't remember, but which was very interesting, such as information about, well, I can't remember.
Maybe the same dream. Possibly when we are in what I think is a spaceship. I see all kinds of shapes of car, modern, old, and futuristic. Some designs look like cars from the movie Back to the Future. There is one yellow car which is circular in shape and of which the roof can be removed and you can fly with that I think, and almost nothing is left underneath, just the wheels I think.
Maybe I see these designs on a computer, they all appear before my mind's eye, close up type.


4. Miso

I am preparing miso soup, the paste sticks on my spoon. I try to get the surplus out of it, it is always difficult to measure.

+5. Lettuce

At some point in a dream there was a mass of lettuce (veldsla) present on the table. Close up.
At some other point I must have dreamed about the cookbook on herbs that I got from my brother.

  1. Residue.
    Dream 2. The list is obviously a residue of working at my sheet of rune names.
    Dream 4. The miso preparing is a residue of having prepared it a few days ago.

    Interpretation.
    The girls in the dream all seem the same person. I would like to link them to Inla, but I don't think the character matches. However, I was very peaceful when I went to bed because she had agreed on a date to meet. Maybe dream 1 is a reflection of that. Maybe dream 3 also, because the connection with her seems to be more than usual, in a way, cosmic?
    Dream 1. The training hall looked like the place where I play badminton.

  2. Reminder.
    Dream 5. Both fragments came back after first seeing the cookbook, and later in the day having this kind of lettuce between my sandwich.

  3. Interpretation.
    Dream 3. When I was reading the book Die Zwerge today, it occurred to me that the movement of the wolves in the dreams, and the threat, is similar to that of orcs in the book. And there is a map in the book as well. Still, both are only a synchronicity, so there must be a deeper symbolic meaning.
    Dream 1. I was somewhat reminded of the dream when I watched the film Jamon Jamon. The tossing of the ball could well reflect the tossing of connections that switch between characters in the film.
