The strangest repeated dream you’ve had.
My
dreams in general are not so strange and neither have I had many repeated ones
in my life, most of the time I don’t even remember what I dreamt the night
before, but there is one particular dream I have had several times, but more
than a dream, it’s the feeling of having dreamt it.
I picture myself over sunset in the streets of a big and people-empty city; at some point of the dream I start having physical sensations, as though I was having to lift a very heavy weight and finally I end up rising from the floor and flying. I make a great physical effort to go beyond the line of the buildings and start flying over the empty city which is now entering a dark night-time. I fly and fly and start losing the strength and I cannot longer go up beyond the level of the buildings and at some point of the dream, I just can’t go on flying because I am too tired and then I just wake up, as tired as in the dream.
I have talked about this dream with friends, family, therapists and no plausible conclusion or interpretation I have drawn from it. I just think it’s one of those stressful feelings that one can have at the back of one’s mind for ages and that will disappear whenever the time for it comes. Certainly, this dream is not bizarre, and neither anguishing; It has not really interfered with my circadian rate and therefore I have never paid a lot of attention to it, maybe that is why I have no interpretation.
Perhaps I will continue perceiving myself as though flying over and empty city at night, and even, I might continue waking up tired for having dreamt about the same, but as of now, I am sure this dream is not a nightmare, it’s just that I might want to fly so badly, that even my subconscious is showing me that feeling.

What a strange dream! I would love to dream that I am flying
ReplyDeleteThe important thing is that it is not a distressing or strange feeling.

ReplyDeleteIt's an interesting dream, I wish I could have the experience of flying in a dream.
I don't like when I wake up feeling tired! At the end of semester I wake up with that feeling
ReplyDeletewow, I've never dreamed that, must be strange!!
ReplyDeleteNever in my life have I dreamed of flying! I think it's a very cool feeling or dream
ReplyDeleteI think all dreams means something. I'm sure your dream means something that you want too badly.
ReplyDeleteIt is striking the fact that you are dreaming but not resting with the action of flying, since this usually represents the release, and by not resting is repressed and enclosed in a repetition of that fatigue that signaled.
ReplyDeleteI try to give a sense my dreams , but you remember are just dreams
ReplyDeleteI would like to feel the sensation of flying, even in a dream.
ReplyDeleteI would like to dream that I am flying
ReplyDeleteI think your dreams is an analogy to Peter Pan
