Gruesome Trophies

Hi Peregrin, I think its great what you do.

I was wondering if you could help me figure out a vivid and disturbing dream I just had. My dreams get weirder and weirder every time I go to sleep and although something like this would be classified as a nightmare, I am getting use to the dreams and am just wondering what they mean. Here is my latest one.thanks!

I was in the mall and I got a phone call on my cell phone, I was with some woman who had 3 sons who were always fighting and the person on the other end was foreign and was telling me something disturbing about something that was going on (in the earlier consciousness of my dream, her 3 sons fighting had gotten to the extreme). It turns out what she was telling me was that there were gonna be 3 or 5 angels lined up on the wall so I was to know I was in the right place) and she had said something about her youngest son aged 7 had committed suicide?

When we got to the store she warned about (after being sidetracked by another one) there were people everywhere. It was a chaotic event and there were people's heads all over the wall. Like they had been decapitated. The dream's attention shifted from this woman's son to people being called down to be decapitated and then their heads displayed up on the walls. There were so many people that the police could not get involved. There were people even outside the windows. I am not sure if they were for it or against it...it was so weird and just like any other weird dream I am wondering what is up with it?? This one bothered me just a little bit more then the usual ones.

Can you help me?? Thanks!!!!

Good morning, Liyah.

First of all, I'd like to recommend that you take a look at your sleep schedule. We need to dream, and when we don't get enough sleep our dreams become more frequent, vivid, and sometimes disturbing, as the body and brain try to make up for the lack.

Still, the dreams usually have meaning for us. Remember that dreams are highly personal, so each element in your dream - the woman you're with, her three sons, and the woman on the cell phone - are usually part of ourselves. With this in mind, your mall dream speaks of some intense personal conflict. The three sons are constantly fighting, indicating a three-way choice in your life, one that you can't seem to decide upon. Like the mother loves all her sons, you don't want to give up on any of these choices, but they all oppose each other.

The call on the cell phone is a message from another part of you. It speaks of a sign to come, something you will recognize, something which will likely help you make your choice. She says that there will be 3 - 5 angels, which I regard as individual messages to come. She also says that her youngest son has suicided - to me, this says that the most recent choice will not be the path chosen, or maybe it will not even be available.

I can certainly understand why the mall scene is so disturbing, but we need to take a close look at it anyway. The heads are mounted like trophies. This brings to mind hunters - specifically, headhunters. This is also another word for employment agencies, a place where people are called one by one and placed like trophies, the most successful being prized above all. This part of the dream seems to be about your career, so it's possible that the entire dream speaks of it.

This seems like one of your signs, but like the people pressed outside the mall, I can't tell if it's positive or negative. Your subconscious wants you to see this, so it may be a viable choice for you to seek an agency to help make a career choice. Ultimately the choice is yours, but sometimes they can help show you options that you didn't know were available.

The dream, then, seems to be about conflict in your job. Certainly, if you're not getting enough sleep, your job could be the cause of it. The dream seems to be saying that it may be time to look at other options.

Pleasant dreams,

Peregrin
