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.

Family Ties

1. Family Business

Maybe in the house of parents, but much bigger, second story, so must be somewhere else, more like a castle environment, though the different rooms remind me of the house of parents. I refuse to spend my time too soon with the other people. I want to be alone first. I know where they all are, as if this is a party, gathering, and after a while I do go, when I think that things are over and it will be safer for me to come. But someone is with me, I think my father, to guide me along.
We go through the hallway and then through the room, but don't pass it, because I see food. The hallway continues straight through but on the left side, and the food is presented to the right, across from where I enter. There are comfortable seats and some people sit in it. And I believe that everyone has eaten his share already, and things are quite. Just how I like it, but I'm not going to pass on food if it is still there and I go to the table and look and it has dishes with white rice and a curry sauce and scampi. I look well, because some look like they have been eaten, so I take a good one, and start eating, it has crab or lobster as well, and the scampi is more like langoustine. I really looked forward having this scampi.
Soft light in the room. I can't remember what happened after. N is certainly there. He does not need food now, maybe because he had already.
All this is about some kind of secret order. So it feels. But I want to stay out of it.
Family. Something about family ties. I remember seeing the connections, way up across the family tree, this in my mind, as pictures, all on the side of the mother.
Mother is certainly there.
 
Family is present, aunts from the side of my parents, M, maybe even L. Some kind of party, at place of parents. Lots of other people too. Cousin D is there.
Maybe the garden of our parents or a place that looks like it, my niece Ru. At some point in the dream I hug her tight, she has long blond hair and I find her attractive, I kiss her but I don't want others to see it.

Something with a car, maybe N. Driving around and coming back.
Looking for a place, with a girl, Ru, to make love. She is wet, I use my hand to check it. She has a boyfriend.
I have an erection, and the girl says that that is like it should be, just so. That is when the dream ends.

2. Giant Gorilla

Seeing this as if reading a comic, this is at one stage of the dream, watching things as if they are on a page, the left page. People are inside, huddled together. Outside is a wolf that belongs to the group. There is a leader, he wants something not happening. Wolf is making noise, maybe that annoys him. Everyone startles and is scared. Or maybe it is the bear, that is also there, but still without reach.
Later there is a big place inside, and to the right is a tree, light, and big bananas grow on it, so big that a person could live in it. And most of the bananas are peeled, but the idea is that a big gorilla, giant gorilla in fact is hiding in one of those bananas. Should be easy to detect I think, because most are open. Guilty (?) monkey.

3. Girl in Red
(Nap dream between 3am and 4am)

I'm in the sofa of the veranda at house of parents, napping, and yet this place is my apartment too, that corner of the sofa where I sleep, and in the dream it is higher than in reality of both places, and limited too, as if a cage (like a park for small children). And then a girl in red comes, and I ask her something to get her near me and she comes, and then I tug at her and gently draw her over the railing so that she falls on top of me, and I intend to catch her when she falls and have her lie with me, but when she comes, she holds her self upright, and so we only half touch and half lie next to each other, but it is already very good, and she resists a little bit, but I tell her we could do rope skipping, because that would bring us closer, but she shakes her head saying that there is no rope, and I tell her I know some somewhere. But I don't move anyway. And everything about this dream was a soft red, the sheets, the bed, her clothes, maybe even my clothes. But I woke then.

  1. Residue.
    Dream 1. The dish with rice and curry and scampi was remarkably similar to what my brothers had at the castle last weekend. The girl in the dream reminded me of a character of assassin's quest, I was reading about yesterday. Maybe I fantasized when reading, at least a bit, but it came through in the dream rather accurately.
    Dream 2. Wolf and group leader is a residue of reading assassin's quest by robin hobb, and in specific the chapter on the smugglers. Banana maybe because I bought bananas yesterday. Monkey might be a residue of watching naruto earlier in the week, this was a summoned spirit in an episode.

    Interpretation.
    Dream 1. First of all this is about the many mails and conversations about Woli's passing, and I would like to take some distance myself. Certainly when I opened my mails a minute ago I did not want to immediately read all those mails again, but I will have to later. So the dream might be about the energy of Woli's friends hanging together, which is good in itself.
    Dream 3. Even if this is a nap, the dream reminds me of the situation between me and Chwe. She still has a boyfriend, I sometimes make a move for her, and I don't really know what she thinks about all this, but when I am clear about it toward her she always resists a little. The red is the colour of passion. The girl in the dream reminded me of both Bale and Chwe, and she was neither of course. I suppose in the dream she had blond hair, and that might have reminded me of Inro, which would then be a residue, because I had her on the phone a few times yesterday, which was a very long time ago.

  2. Interpretation.
    Dream 1. So Mefa mailed me he was worried about Chwe, but I did not immediately react, then later in the evening I called, just two minutes ago, and Mefa was already there, and Sien, so I'll be going too, and they are already cooking, so that seems much like my dream. It is family business if you regard friends as such.
