my brother has been going through really hard times, and it's getting really difficult for him to get over a few hours of good sleep a night. He has this recurring dream about a snake slithering from behind and biting him in the foot. Do you have a clue as for what this means?
He also dreamt he had a scorpion under his nail, and managed to pull it all out ....weird, huh?

Do you think you are too special kind of creature on this earth and without knowing yourself it makes you arrogant and nasty to others?Do you think you need to improve your behavior?

I had one of the wierdest dreams ever last night... I'm not going to into the details but I couldn't figure out how to interpret it. I went to dreammoods, and couldn't really find much. Okay, here are the basic "standouts" in my dream...

I was swimming in a kiddie pool that had a little pond scum and lilly pads in it. It was brown water too, and there was a lochness monster under the water, trying to get me. I think I got away though.

Then, there were strange looking bugs, and I kept trying to kill them. There was a black snail, that had spots on its back that would light up right before it attacked, and a wierd looking crab that bit me before I smooshed it. And the wierdest bug, wasn't really a bug- it was a plastic man's head, with a tophat, and he had spider's legs. I trying to smoosh him with a huge book. Thanks for your help if you read all of this! :)

Is it because people don't want to loose credibility for being right sometimes?

*Please* Don't judge me, and don't pretend you can surmise who I am from questions...I might be a psychology student gathering a broad range of opinons and views...-OR- I might need to know on a deeper level how to deal with an important person/relationship.

I know some people that can listen to a song once and memorize every lyric and beat and others that can give such vivid details and descriptions of past events. Me on the other hand i tend to forget it and its difficult to recall past detail. Is there any way i can be similar to the people i described before and be able to recall past events in my head perfectly?

Yeah, and the old " Oh I will come back and answer this question later" gig is really old.

And trust me, I searched for an answer on this forum, before I asked, and thats all I could find.

I appreciate it if some human has the answer, and plus, answer it good because someone else might need the answer and instead of asking they could come onto this question and read your answer as well.

Anyways, grab your best answer!

I need to find peace of mind. I have had a dream that may be classified as a revelation. My whole life may be symbolized by this revelation, which I had seen in a vision of the night. The dream is in my mind ever since and always occupies my thoughts.

"I saw myself walking into a huge desert, which was completely uninhabited. The color of the sand was very yellowish and I was all alone with no single creature thereabout. In the dream, I found myself walking through the desert while the sun brilliantly shone over my face. I felt extremely happy & joyful, and I was in a splendid mood never felt before; adjoined with real glory and a very high esteem and self-confidence. Inside my soul, I was filled with indescribable peace of mind. My feelings were as if I was exulted in the spirit and raised to be in the realm of the gods. My face shone with splendor and briliance opposite to the son. There was absolutely nothing desired or needed as I walked through the desert. I was totally contended and supremely satisfied.

As I walked, I said to my self: " If seclusion like this can bring me this magnificent state of mind and feeling of extreme well being, I certainly need no one to be with." I truly felt that God was living in me as I walked through the desert; God's Majestic being was sensed inside my spirit and my thoughts were uncomparable to any thing I have ever experienced in the past. Suddenly, I began to see thorns and thistles growing ahead and around me covering all the area that surrounding me as I proceeded in my walk. I then looked for a piece of wood or a wand (Rod) to use as I walked through the thorns which I found. As the way became more difficult due to the appearance of these thick thorns, I used my wand to safely go through. After a while, I crossed my way through the thorns, and then I stopped and looked ahead of me, and behold, I saw a very black goat that was standing above a rocky area and lifting one of its legs (Hoof) above the ground. I immediately said to my self: " This goat may have walked through the thorns which I had just crossed through and that it is lifting one of its hoof above the ground as it may have been hurt, and most likely it is bleeding." I said to my self, as I was thinking how to help this goat, " If it is bleeding, I thought, I would take a piece of my shirt and rap it around his leg to stop the blood and to comfort him". When I approached the goat wanting to check his leg, the goat screamed in my face with a scream that cannot possibly be described. His voice was absolutely odd and unknown to human being. It was louder than any thing I ever heard coming out of an animal or man. The goat kept on screaming and screaming and screaming continuously without stopping while I was standing contemplating and wondering if I had done something wrong. After a while, I began to suspect my self as the cause of this goat's strange behavior which had not stopped screaming yet. At this moment I began to doubt myself. I said to my self: "If this goat is so scared of me to that extent, then what is in me cannot possibly be God." Immediately when that thought crossed my mind, I felt as if something in my body had raptured out and left me in full despair and agony. Instantaneously, the goat stopped screaming, and immediately thereafter I felt so sad, so scared, terrified and lacking joy and confidence, and then darkness began to creep around me. The goat then carried me through the air and brought me to the very place I lived when I was very young; the place was a ranch that my grandfather owned and I often used to spend joyful time in that place. I looked around and saw friends and relatives celebrating and drinking and having great joy. I then said to my self, as I looked at them 200 feet afar: "What could they be so happy about?” "There is nothing worthy in this world to making somebody happy anymore." Then I again looked around me and saw the goat standing next to me. I felt as I stood with him so depressed, so scared and in indescribable despair and extremely in melancholy with no confidence in my self, or self-esteem.
I cannot forget this dream while I live or even after I die. It has brought to me so much tears and sorrows.

Cpould you possibly make a vivid and clear interpretation of this dream? I had the dream sometime ago, but it still lives in me as part of me until this very moment.
Your effort to interpret this dream would be much more than thankful or grateful!

I remember for a really long time I've had the occasional violent dream where someone was chasing me and it ended up that I had to kill them with my bare hands by choking them otherwise they would kill me. Well, this past Wednesday night I had a dream that I killed my 2 year old daughter by strangling her and cutting her neck then throwing her in the lake. I woke up crying. Then last night(friday), my first dream was that my whole family went to a hotel for a vacation and ended up that the owner of the hotel was chasing all of us trying to kill us and I knew one place to hide but I couldn't tell anyone. I woke up at 4:30am scared to death. My second dream Friday night was that someone was killing my 7 year old son in front of me and I didn't make him stop, I actually helped. I woke up at 6:30 am crying from this also. What is wrong with me??
