'Disturbed by the Wrong Image' Dream Interpretation

Disturbed by the Wrong Image

I see myself climbing up a stairwell, it looks like a fire exit type, gray concrete, metal stairs with open treads. I come to the landing, and there is a red metal fire door, with a small square window, with metal safety mesh in the glass. I look through the window, and the scene is of a park, outdoors. I see a close friend of mine, and she is talking to some of our friends.

The scene changes, and now I am in the scene I was just witnessing. Celia is showing a picture of her and Logan, and she has been crafty and made a "shadowbox" out of it, using flowers, ribbons, doll's heads, etc., to make the two dimensional portrait more three dimensional. The effect, believe it or not, is to make the portrait even more "lifelike".

All of a sudden, the figures in the photo change, and turn into two skeletons, which slowly sink back into shallow, grass lined "graves". This, however, does not seem to disturb me. I do comment on it, to Celia, saying: "Did you see that?" to which she replied: "I thought you would see it, too."

Then, without warning, the two figures changed places. This freaks me out very badly, for some reason. (Though, why this bothers me more than their turning to skeletons does, I have no idea.) I say "Whoa!” to which Celia says "Oh, so you saw that, too?

At this time, I am transported back behind the "fire door", and start to say, "How can I talk?"

I actually wake up with the effort of trying to talk, having gotten as far as the "T", going "t...t...t... talk"

I am so struck by the "importance" of this dream, I am compelled to write it down. In doing so, my consciousness must have been shifting from one side of my brain to the other, because I started out writing the words down as they "sounded", not as they are "spelled".

I had the feeling that something had gone horribly wrong, and I could not get in touch with either of my friends for the longest time, and neither of them had a clue as to what the dream could have been triggered by, but to this day, almost twenty years later, I STILL think it's significant, somehow.

So, I thought I would share it here, and see what you all could make of it.

So, have fun!

It seems to me the image isn't what's upsetting you it is the idea of being able to see something not everyone can readliy see. There was a time when the idea of having spiritual gifts frightened me. I tried to shut them off and deny there existence. I had several of these types of dreams I finally got the message spirit wanted me to acknowledge not fear my gifts. This is your dream not mine, it may or may not resonate with you.

Love and light

I get what your saying, but am not sure if it applies here. I don't think I've ever been that frightened of my gifts. I understand most of the dream, actually, I know that the stairwell, and firedoor, are symbols of a change in level of Consciousness, and that the figures in the "picture" represent my friends, and their relationship. I see that their figures changing into skeletons is nothing to fear, it represents normal changes. I knew that, even in the dream itself. The thing that I don't quite get, is that seeing the two figures exchange places is, for some reason I DON'T understand, extremely upsetting to me. It was so upsetting to me, it "yanked" me completely out of the dream, into full consciousness; but I have never understood the symbolism in it, why it was so threatening to me, or why I thought my friends were literally in mortal danger.

I also feel, that it is somehow still important for me to "get it"; but, I don't know where to begin to "break the code", as it where. Any Ideas?

What positions do they each hold in your mind and how might they change? For instance, is one you confidant and the other not to be trusted to keep a secret, or one out going and the other shy? I think it means a change in their relationship to you is coming.

Also in the dream you want to say something but you can't speak. What do you want to say?

I think if you answer those questions it will become clear to you.
