I fell asleep after my last dream of the haunted abandoned circus mall house and had this dream: I was in a New York type of city and I was with Brenna, Aysha, and Nore I think in the beginning they were different girls. We are trying to be let into the building to get up to our hotel but there is a key pad on the front we have to get past They speak into it the key which I believe was 572 or 542 and Jarrod is on the other hand who replies he’ll let us in It’s about 3 o’clock and 2 hours go by and we’re all sitting on the floor waiting I start to tell the 4 of them of my dream and Brenna gets up to go to the bathroom and Nore is not listening so I seek someone’s consciousness and find Aysha and tell her of the circus mall dream with monsters and ghosts. She’s listening. I finish my story and it’s kind of silent in the room. I start to apologize and tell them I’ve been feeling indifferent lately so I’m seeking connection as Brenna agrees she can tell I’m seeking connection and to maybe try less hard. And I reply “I understand what you’re saying but this is a messy process I have to go through and I’m proud for trying anyways even if I get shut down. I also want to be friends with those who honor their own needs and even if I’m seeking connection you’re being honest with your self and not listening because you don’t have the capacity and that’s the kind of friends I want to be around.” And she smiled nodded and agreed. I get up to use the bathroom. I take my time as we have been sitting here forever anyways but when I leave the bathroom they’re all gone and the door to enter the building is open. The air is kind of dusty and cold and I feel a sense of abandonment but I put optimism on and grab my suitcase and make way to the elevator to take me up to the floor our room is on. When I reach the corner where the elevator is at I have a flashback of the prior dream I just had where I was in the circus mall with ghosts and monsters. I felt fear kick in as I remembered that I just had a similar dream of getting on an elevator. It was hard for me to find the button as my eyes started to blur from the dust but when I finally did, I got onto the elevator and it was empty, and stale, just like the one at the haunted circus mall. There is only one button in there and it goes up. So I press it. I look to my right and I see my cat Cowboy standing next to me. I’m disbelief but excitement I start to say hello to him and pet him. Im so happy he’s here but also confused. I miss my chance to stop the elevator at floor 11 and It goes all the way up to 14. I step out and my only way to get back down is to hop into another elevator that goes down. But when I hop out it’s fancier on this floor. No more dust or eerie stuff. Cowboy follows me but he bolts out of the elevator and I’m having a hard time getting him to come back in and he gets into another elevator so I step into that one and it’s packed with a bunch of fancy people in suits and it looked like were in the 1950’s. A man offered help with cowboy as there was a closet he could put him in inside the elevator but I declined and cowboy ran out. I chased and chased him and left my purple suitcase with a man in the 14th floor lobby and kept running, leaving all my belongings behind. He runs all the way down to the first floor and I’m screaming out my zip code from my hometown. As he reaches the front door I’m screaming “don’t let him outside! Don’t let him out!” But a woman lets him outside where he turns into a bird and flys away. I go outside to call for him but he’s soaring above me. I see a childhood familiar face walk by and she tries calling him too. I remember that he hasn’t been outside in a long time and he’ll be getting all his energy out for a while. So I keep calling him, hoping he’ll come back.
This dream appears to incorporate elements of connection, seeking acceptance, and fear of abandonment. The initial setting of a New York-like city suggests a bustling and vibrant atmosphere filled with opportunities for connection and interaction. The key pad at the front of the building symbolizes the barriers and challenges one may face in seeking entry into social circles or relationships.
The presence of Brenna, Aysha, and Nore could represent different aspects of your own personality or friends in waking life. As you try to connect with them and share your dream, it reveals your desire for deeper connections and the need to be heard and understood. The fact that Nore is not listening could indicate a lack of emotional capacity or availability, which sparks a realization within you.
When you apologize for seeking connection and express your desire to be surrounded by friends who honor their needs, it suggests a need for authentic relationships built on mutual understanding and honesty. It also highlights your willingness to undergo the messy process of self-discovery and growth, regardless of potential rejection.
The subsequent disappearance of your friends and the open door symbolize a sense of abandonment and being left behind. This could reflect a fear of being alone or left out in your waking life. The dusty and cold air further emphasizes the feeling of isolation and unfamiliarity.
The flashback to the prior dream of the haunted circus mall with monsters and ghosts represents your anxieties and fears. The elevator is a recurring symbol that signifies transitions, changes, and the unknown. Your struggle to find the button and the blurring of your vision may suggest the difficulty you face in making choices or decisions when feeling overwhelmed.
The presence of your cat, Cowboy, within the elevator brings a sense of comfort, familiarity, and companionship. However, the cat's escape symbolizes the loss of something cherished and the need to let go. The chasing and screaming for Cowboy could represent your desire to hold onto the past and the struggle to come to terms with the changes and uncertainties in your life.
Overall, this dream may be expressing your longing for deeper connections, your fear of abandonment, and the challenges you face in navigating relationships and transitions. It encourages you to embrace the messy process of self-discovery and seek meaningful connections with those who honor their own needs and possess genuine honesty.
