What are possible meanings for dreams of museums?
The symbolism of a museum connects with the idea of “relic from the past.” Museums are terrific dream settings for looking at your past. They can show you what you really value about yourself, your history, and your heritage.
Museums are associated with the idea of “untouchable.” For example, a young woman dreams about rescuing a child in a museum, symbolizing how she is trying to escape the restrictions of her childhood. As a high achiever with overprotective parents, she watched other children have fun and take risks but wasn’t allowed to participate. The “look but don’t touch” association with a museum describes her childhood. Now that she’s an adult she has more freedom to decide for herself what she wants to participate in, but she needs to overcome the programming of her childhood that makes her feel she needs permission to do things merely for the fun of it.

Revisiting the same places
I have been noticing that I have the same places that I have been going back to for months upon months. I wrote them out and I have 13+ locations that I can identify and I revisit most of them regularly.
Some of my locations include the college that o went to that’s totally different from the real campus but I know where it is, an outdoor body of water surrounded by towns that remind me of New England small towns, and my favorite is a museum that I sometimes am a curator of.
Does anyone else have a really complex dream life?

A weird dream I had like 3-4 years ago
The dream's plot was like the plot of "**Happy Death Day"** or what happen in the trailer. It was me on a school trip at this place called **"Lidl"** (which now I know is a supermarket) but in my dream it was a museum that was a history and science museum. I arrived there in the morning where we were allowed to go free for the whole day. We had to meet again later in the entrance of the museum. later after looking around the museum and talk to friends I when to the place where to meet up with everyone else it was me alone. The day repeated when I looked everywhen and couldn't find anyone, I hen to sleep on the floor where I wake up by someone shaking me on the bus to go into the museum again and again. Every time I would l lose the people I was with and be alone at the end of the day.

Dream about being forced to watch horrific videos
I was being held captive in a old large museum style building. I was being forced to watch a montage of horrific videos. Including people dying. Being shot. Deformed people fighting to the death. Puppies being crushed my a steam roller. A person being killed while having sex. Animals being tortured and skinned alive.
It was really upsetting. What could it mean?

A dream with a white snake.
English is not my first language.
It was nighttime, I entered as a passenger in a car that drove dangerously. I ended up arriving at a place that looked like museum ruins. It was the second time I had dreamed of this place. This time I tried to take a closer look at the place. Finally I arrived at a place that had high walls but no ceiling, grass and trees were dry and there were some scary objects like a mask hanging from a wall. As I walked through the place I saw a white snake standing on the ground about 3 meters away. I froze immediately in fear and someone told me not to run. Instinctively I started running and at the same moment the snake bit my right hand. I was in shock. That's when I joined forces and with the other hand very strongly I grabbed the snake by the head and removed it. I think I killed it when I removed it. Immediately I woke up in pain where I was stung in the dream. I was all sweaty and scared.
Could someone help me interpret this intense dream?

I woke up paralyzed from a dream
I just had this dream where I was a spectator to this guy videoing a museum and narrating that it was some cool Korean history museum and there was all these colorful statues around of animals or something... And then as he's doing the video panorama with his phone there's a figure dressed in all black robes, face, and hair. He sees it. He's got to, how could he not. But he's straight lined up with his phone and as soon as he and his phone line up with this figure, the scene cuts to r/perfectlycutscreams and his head is on the ground, close up.
I then continue to be in this "museum," now empty of people and I'm looking around and.. I see the same figure. For a split second. I wake up paralyzed and try to scream but the only sound that comes out is "aaaah aaaah aaaah aaaah" and i feel myself start shaking with a pounding coming from my gut. It was after a few convulsions I managed to "wake up" fully now, all of this in a split second or two. My consciousness didn't know who I was or where I was.
This is one of the first times I've had this paralyzed from a dream experience... It was so weird like when I woke up paralyzed I wasnt actually "up" at least fully consciously and knowing of my life details.
Anyways thanks for reading.
- has this happened to anyone else?
