A two-person kayak is a great symbol for a relationship. Paddling in harmony can symbolize the cooperation and coordination of a close relationship. Paddling out of sync can mean a relationship is out of sync.

The actions involved with kayaking and the conditions of the water can symbolize your life, or what you anticipate coming up. Rough waters can mean turbulence or turmoil, such as when a relationship hits a rough patch, events in your life are tossing you about, or your emotions are churning. On the other hand, calm waters can mean your life is running smoothly. You have harmony in yourself or your relationships.

Weird dream

This is actually the second time I've had this dream.
It always starts out in my front yard. I'm loading my kayak onto my truck. Looks like I'm going camping. Right after I finish strapping down the kayak, I look at my front door and there's a person with an evil looking face and long nose. Like a witch. Then I hear children singing. I turn to the source of the singing. I see 3 children singing and skipping through the woods in front of my house and they are headed for the front door. The first time I had this dream the kids went inside the house and then I heard screams. Then I woke up. This time I ran towards the kids and screamed at them to GTFO. Then I woke up and I was saying something in real life. It wasn't GTFO. Sounded like jiberish. It also felt like I wasn't alone in my room. Idk, just figured I'd type it out to get it out of my head. Going back to sleep now.

Explain my Childhood Nightmare

I frequently had this nightmare as a child, up to the age of about 12. The nightmare was me on a kayak in the pitch dark, in a forest-like place that was based on the forest area next-door to my primary school. There were cats with mutalated faces and bodies swimming towards me, making threatening noises as the approached me to attack me.

I've always loved cats. I could not sleep at night as a kid, in fear of this dream. in retrospect i had a lot of anxiety as a child. I was terrified to go near the location it was set in.

Overly complicated dream description

So I had the weirdest dream the other day, probably on account of me turning off my alarm and getting an extra 10 minutes of stressful snoozing.

It started off with there having been some sort of apocalypse and my family was forced to take shelter in the attic of this really really tall library. It was a nice place so we weren't too concerned about it. Shortly afterwards, I decided to go on a run. I made it a couple blocks before realizing that I forgot to put clothes on besides sneakers for some reason, and I looked like I was taking part in some kind of weird pokemon trainer porno shoot. I started to sheepishly make my way back to the attic house when I saw my dad's car driving down the street. There was nowhere to hide and I sure as fuck wasn't going to give him an awkward wave, so dream me had the bright idea to flop down on the pavement like a dying seal and pray that he didn't see me. For an instant, I thought the cards were in my favor as he drove past me with no incident, but then I saw him make a u-turn to investigate if the dying seal girl he caught a glimpse of was his beloved only child. I then jumped to my feet and started sprinting down the boulevard, faintly hoping that I would find a back road and make it home before my old man. At this point I became aware that the dream was taking place in some sort of bizarro version of I'm guessing Sausalito, California. All I know is that we were on a cliff overlooking a waterfront and a city a bit farther out. This becomes quasi relevant later.

Alas I was unable to locate a speedy route home, and to make matters worse, my worried father had alerted a couple of nearby cops to the situation. (Unfortunately neither of them looked like Caitlyn Kiramman else the dream gods may have allowed me a bit of fun.) Now I didn't want one balding middle aged dude to see me like that, much less 3, so I chose the most logical course of action and booked it towards a long staircase leading down to a dock at sea level. I had almost made it down when one of the very confused cops turned on his bullhorn and asked me what the hell I was running from. I could have been smart and answered "I dunno maybe cause I'm fuckin naked you dingus" but apparently I was still holding onto a modicum of self respect, because I said something like "uuuhh I'm fine, sorry about all this". Once I reached the bottom of the stairs I realized that there were no boats, kayaks, or dinghys available and I was debating either facing my shame or diving into the icy waters when a particularly loud bird woke me up.

I really hope this shit doesn't mean anything.

So I had the weirdest dream the other day, probably on account of me turning off my alarm and getting an extra 10 minutes of stressful snoozing.

This dream feels profound and I’d like some help interpreting

I had a dream last night that was two parts but within the same dream. The first part I was white water rafting. I was competing against 2 others and I tipped over in my kayak almost immediately upon starting and was far behind. But, over the course of the race I came back and won the race.

At the bottom there were reporters and one of them asking me how long I’ve been white water rafting and I said back “this is my first time!”

From there, we then entered into what was the feeling of a Buddhist ceremony with temples and monks dressed in traditional orange garments. We were looking over mountains (feeling of Tibet) and there was a procession of sorts.

I quickly went and kneeled next to the other monks, despite the other rafting racers telling me I shouldn’t. My hands were rearranged by a monk in the form of the proper mudra, index fingers curled inward so the backs of my fingertips were touching, the rest touching extended at fingertips, and my thumbs doing the same. I then had oil poured over my hands and head out of a special bowl.

A short while after, the ceremony ended and I got up with a feeling that I can’t find the words for now. And that’s the end.

Thank you in advance to anyone who takes the time to offer any insights!
