Dream Interpretation

As I was just coming out of sleep this morning, I dreamed up a new Olympic sport: rupee riding!

It's balancing your bike on an Indian coin. Where does my brain get this stuff?!?

Also unusual last night in my dream I was in the corner of the Safeway grocery. I don't recall ever being in a public place before. Several interesting people came into my view. They seemed to have their own autonomy, not needing anything from me. That's different from the dreams I used to have where crowds of people would be needing something from me.

Jeff Wrangler:
I hardly ever remember my dreams, but one from last night was a real exception.

First of all, I looked exactly as I looked in a photo taken about the time I graduated from college, slim and in a light gray three-piece suit (Italian tailoring, which made me look taller). I was going to a wedding, and there was a woman going with me. I didn't recognize her, although I noticed she had short dark hair.

The church where the wedding was to take place had a circular driveway and then a semicircular portico along part of the driveway. It was time to go into the church. I offered the woman my arm to escort her into the church. She didn't like the gesture (patriarchal, I guess), but she took my arm anyway, and we entered the church. The church was Roman Catholic, but it didn't look like my idea of what the interior of a Catholic church would look like though it did have nice oak furnishings. It looked more like something generically Protestant, and the priest was wearing an academic gown, complete with a hood, instead of ecclesiastical garments. Also, he looked like one of my college professors whom I had disliked.

(This professor had acted as if he felt that teaching undergraduates in a small liberal arts college was somehow beneath him. I think he was probably frustrated in his career, but anyway, once, after a class, I told him privately and politely that he had been wrong about the location of something he had mentioned in his lecture, and in response he gave me attitude.)

Anyway, the next thing I knew the wedding was over, and the woman and I were walking to our car, which was parked in a grassy field that had been turned into a parking area. I said that I didn't remember anything about the wedding, and had I fallen asleep. She said Yes, and that was the endo of what I remember of this dream.

Front-Ranger:
Hmmm, interesting dream. You went back to a place where you were young and in transition. Although you were trying your best to fit in, your efforts were judged. The church, the wedding, the rituals didn't impress you. Maybe you made up your mind to search for something that better fit your style and needs.
