In a series of dreams recently, in the first one, I am following my mum. We are in a new house I bought, and because some of my family and my husband's family were visiting, I was trying to manage and ensure everyone had beds to sleep in. So we go to what seems like a hidden, undiscovered lower part of the house, and we discover 5 new bedrooms with beds and everything. Initially, I am happy because now everyone will fit, but as we go around checking the bedrooms, we find one with a little dressing table and a big bed in the middle of the room. A bell and some strings hang from the ceiling in the middle of the bed, and my mum says, "Do you realize what this means? This means the family that you bought your house from has someone kidnapped here." In that moment, I am looking at the garden, a big one that we were planning to redo, and I have the thought that the family (a couple with 5 young children, all with different disabilities) had killed a young woman (maybe their oldest daughter) and had buried her in the garden. I think that is the reason why they sold the house so quickly and cheaply, and I think that if we start doing the work we wanted in the garden and dig it, people will find the body, and they will accuse us of killing her.
Wow, lots of really intense themes. You said these are a series, is it the same house each time? How long have the dreams been going on for?
I mentioned that movement to lower levels can imply that what is being explored is deeper, and often less conscious, parts of our experience. Perhaps dynamics that are unresolved, things we have forgotten, or even aspects of our personality that is in development.
It seems to center around children, either kidnapped, disabled or killed. These of course carry symbolic significance, so I wonder if there is a child like aspect (which can represent new life, new beginnings, potential) that is being explored. In this case, the children aren't able to express their essence fully, whether that is a natural handicap or something done to them.
Maybe you've moved to this house to excavate this child essence, to understand it better, to find it even if it has been buried deep underground.
Thank you! This all sounds so interesting! the second one It is the same house although it doesn't look the same but I know it is if that makes sense? In the second dream, I was in the same house but I was having a party.... because it is big there were lots of people there in each area there were people from different areas of my life. (like school friends, uni friends, mum friends, different jobs...) I am struggling to host everyone while I know I am waiting for someone really important to come so I keep checking at the door and trying to talk to people and feed them ....
In the third one, the party is going on and keep waiting for the person.... at some point I stand with one of my mums friends and I can see a message on the wall, a glowing message, we discuss the message, I tell her is a very important one for me and that's why is there... she says this message you need to remember... but then, when I wake up I could not remember it... I go back to waiting and hosting and the dream ends with me waiting...
These dreams were going on for three weeks, one every week approximately a month ago.
There are elements of stress dreams present, the struggle to host everyone. But it seems centered around the anticipation of waiting for this person...who might that be?

You might try incubating a dream to see if you can get the message again. I discuss the technique briefly here: https://alyssapolizzi.substack.com/i/118167773/dream-incubation

Thank you! I will try the incubation! :) not sure who the person is....
Good luck :)
