I started taking lessons from this dude and I get to his house and he starts me off playing scales (which is normal). But instead of a piano he had a cheap electronic keyboard that changed octave ranges randomly. Or the keyboard would change sound settings to something more synth sounding. Then after all that, and me kinda judging this man's credibility, he starts teaching me note values in some weird way that I didn't recognize.
Dreams about taking music lessons can symbolize a desire for self-improvement or personal growth. In this dream, the shifting electronic keyboard and the unconventional teaching methods of the instructor may represent a feeling of uncertainty or discomfort with the learning process. The changing octave ranges and sound settings could reflect a sense of unpredictability or lack of stability in your learning environment.
The judgment of the instructor's credibility may suggest doubts or concerns about the guidance or advice you are receiving in waking life, perhaps related to a particular situation or relationship. The unfamiliar way of teaching note values could signify feelings of confusion or a need to adapt to new ways of understanding things.
Overall, this dream may be prompting you to reflect on your current learning experiences and how you navigate challenges or uncertainties. It could be encouraging you to trust your instincts and seek out guidance that aligns more closely with your goals and values.
