more dream analysis

Dream # 1. I’m walking on the sidewalk in Old Town as I pass by a Chinese Restaurant (they have 12 kinds of noodle and rice dishes). I appear to be me. The Chinese Restaurant is also a jazz club with live musicians. And when you leave with your takeout, the musicians inside stop and 3 wise old musicians with dark shades who are standing around the corner start playing, so that the music follows you down the street. They even shoot you a knowing smile and nod their heads as you go on your way. This dream had great music.

Dream #2. I’m in a school cafeteria. I’m me but I’m also a student at the school, which is some kind of French immersion middle or elementary school. Or maybe I’m a teacher. Not clear. In any case it’s the end of term and there’s lot of fan fare, French flags, funny hats, streamers, balloons …. and music. French music that all the students sing along to – each section of the room is dressed alike and when their outfit matches that part of the song, they sing. But then there’s a flashback within the dream, to before the end of term party. There’s lots of work to be done – streamers to be hung, musicians to be hired, songs to be learned, food to be cooked. And I’m in charge of all the work!

Thoughts on what this pair of dreams mean? I’ve got some, but I’d be interested in any other amateur dream analysis.

Sounds to me like you are hungry and not eating enough. Are you dieting?

I adored your first dream, seemed pretty significant to me that there were three wise men playing you music. What a wonderful image, how are your own inner wisdom figures filling your life with music and inviting you to listen?
