I have been having a lot of vivid dreams lately. Marybe I'm not sleeping well. Dreams about my parents ignoring me, dreams about former lovers, dreams about terrorists. Last night I dreamt some guy was stalking me, getting involved with my firends behind my back, lying about me. He went to my neighbors and said there was something wrong with me, that he needed to see me to make sure I was ok. As soon as he got me out of the house, I was telling him to leave me alone and leave my friends alone. He started to attack me. I fought back and ended up waking up screaming for my boyfriend. He was sleeping in the other room (snorer), and didn't hear me. I spent about half an hour awake and being angry that he couldnt' protect me in my dreams, or hear me when I yelled for him.

Sat, February 16, 2008 - 4:27 AMDreams are a way for us to find out what fears are operating under the surface and affecting our freedom to live authentically. Fears keep the mask over our heart and we begin to project all kinds of false portrayals of "self" in order to avoid our fears from manifesting; which really just keep us enslaved to fear and the servant of it.
If you are dreaming about your parents ignoring you; you probably have a deep down fear of rejection that is wanting to surface to your awareness. Fears of rejection and betrayal seem to be prevalent in your dreams you have shared.
If I'm on target, you are probably ridden with guilt and shame on a unconscious level because of the meaning you have placed on past failures, experiences, etc. Its ok, we all do it. We will manifest what we believe about ourselves deep down. You are worthy of self respect, love and oneness with others. You are not "less than" and you do not need others to give you this attention, love and respect...you are to give it to yourself. In relationships we go about trying to fill that void where we are not whole ourselves. How can we believe or trust that other people will love us if we don't love ourself first.
You are probably screaming for your boyfriend because you seek for him to rescue you or heal you (as many are doing in their human relationships) but this kind of soul healing cannot be received from another person; it is a spiritual clearing of all false ideas of self and a wonderful journey to greater self love and awareness awaits you. -
