I was a spirit and was told that I have to remove and replace my old, ancient, never used, dusty, China cabinet because it's taking up too much space. I was told this about many items, otherwise I would become a lost spirit. I was enraged and bawling the whole time. Even though those items didn't get a lot of attention, they still held meaning to me, and showed me how far I had come. To replace or remove them feels like removing my progress, but I did it anyway because I didn't want to become lost. Each item removed caused a great deal of emotional and mental stress. I would remember moments of my life that had that item in there, but then also when it was last used and left to dust. I would outcry and scream and bawl at the top of my lungs at each item, and wonder why I was subjected to this torture. I awoke in tears.

The dream had a disjointed structure, shifting between being a spirit and the emotional turmoil of item removal.

The Spirit's Burden

The dream was filled with anguish as I faced the painful task of letting go of cherished items.

The intensity of my feelings was overwhelming as I screamed and cried at the thought of losing my past.

Although I was a spirit, the emotional connection to the physical items felt very real and personal.

The details of the dusty China cabinet and the memories associated with each item were strikingly vivid.

Harmonie, your dream encapsulates a profound struggle with letting go of the past and the emotional weight that comes with it. The imagery of you as a spirit suggests a feeling of being disconnected from your physical self or perhaps your current reality. This disconnection can mirror your feelings of anxiety and depression, as if you are observing your life from a distance rather than fully engaging with it. The dusty, ancient China cabinet symbolizes memories and experiences that, while perhaps no longer active in your life, still hold significant meaning. The cabinet taking up too much space represents the burden of these past experiences, which may feel overwhelming at times.

  Your rage and tears during the process of removing these items indicate a deep-seated emotional struggle. Each item in the cabinet seems to represent a moment in your life, connected to both joy and sorrow. The fact that you felt compelled to remove them to avoid becoming a lost spirit suggests a fear of stagnation or being trapped in the past. This reflects your anxiety about losing progress, which resonates with the challenges you've faced, including trauma and loss. The act of shedding these items, despite the pain it causes, illustrates a conflict between the desire to move forward and the attachment to what has shaped you.

  When you reflect on the moments associated with each item, it reveals how intertwined your identity is with your past.

Dream About Removing Old Items

I am on top of this mountain that looks down on the hole of all the water city and the region surrounding it; basically the west Kanagawa region
I am looking down at this magnificent scape with the river crossing in the middle of it from the ski jump stage/scaffold, the ski jump start-point arch, there’s an arch above my head 
Scene goes back to the time when I’m preparing for this thing(putting my gears on and such) with the help of my family(mother and younger brother) at the apartment room that we used to live in in Hakone
There’s also Calcharo, the stoic, intimidating merc with flexible morality, the long straight white hair and the scars all over his hody from the game Wuthering Waves
There’s also the girl that made me leave some of the past I had *to* her before I could move forward
We have conversations while I get prepared, the environment is soemwhat cozy

Scene changes, now I’m climbing up the slope of Shiroyama to my elementary school that I went to through 1-2nd grade before I went to Singapore
Lush deep forest greens, rusted football ground frames, overall a bit ruin-ish but the kids are still around and the building itself very much indeed seem to have people in it
What’s different about this version of Shiroyama Elementary School is that they have a parking lot, beneath he elevated first floor of the building
I go in

The transitions between scenes are logical, as they flow from preparation to nostalgic memories of childhood.

Mountain View and Childhood Memories

The dream evokes a sense of nostalgia and excitement while preparing for a significant event.

The intensity is heightened by the presence of family and a significant character from a game, adding emotional weight to the experience.

The dream features familiar places like Hakone and the elementary school, blending reality with vivid fantasy elements.

The dream is highly vivid, with clear details of the mountain, water city, and lush greenery surrounding the school.

Hope, your dream presents a vivid tapestry of emotions and memories, intricately woven into the fabric of your subconscious. The image of you standing atop a mountain overlooking a water city and the surrounding region symbolizes a profound sense of perspective you might be seeking in your life. Mountains often represent personal challenges and achievements, and your elevated position suggests that you are at a point where you can reflect on your past experiences, particularly those related to the Kanagawa region. This viewpoint may indicate that you are grappling with the complexities of your life, seeking clarity amidst the chaos, especially given your recent life changes and stressors.

  The ski jump stage you mention is particularly interesting; it signifies a leap of faith or a significant transition. The arch above your head could be interpreted as a gateway or a threshold, suggesting that you are preparing to embark on a new chapter in your life. The preparation scene with your family is significant as it highlights the importance of support systems in your journey. Your mother and younger brother's presence indicates a grounding force in your life, reminding you that you are not alone in facing your challenges. Their involvement in your preparations suggests that familial bonds are integral to your ability to move forward, especially when you're feeling the weight of stress and anxiety.

  The introduction of Calcharo, a character from Wuthering Waves, adds a layer of complexity to your dream. His stoic and intimidating nature may represent the internal struggles or moral dilemmas you are facing.

Dream About Mountains And Cherished Memories

It was a nightmare. I was stuck in my bed, watching shadows move all around. I couldn't move and they were torturing me with my past memories. I kept seeing distorted faces them staring at me. My past friends, family even, they were so distorted. I finally mustered somehow to move or appear next to my couch, where my mother was sleeping. I held her tight and I was telling her how scared I was. How I was sorry for everything and how this is really disappointing and stupid from me. I eventually saw the shadow person, she was, taking and breaking things around my house. but when I told my mother nothing was happening. She eventually took me to her bedroom where I proceeded to watch that shadow woman continue to do so. until my mother told me "maybe you should go to bed earlier, and you are overreacting" I screaming "go, go away" for what felt like forever until I finally woke up the same position I was in from my dream.

The narrative was somewhat disjointed, jumping from being stuck in bed to interacting with my mother, making it feel fragmented.

The Shadow Nightmare

The dream conveyed a deep sense of fear and regret as I was confronted by distorted memories of loved ones.

The intensity was overwhelming, with feelings of panic and helplessness as I struggled to escape my situation.

The experience felt somewhat realistic, as I could vividly see my mother, but the shadows were surreal and nightmarish.

The dream was quite vivid, especially the details of the shadows and the faces of my past, which were hauntingly clear.

Lucas, thanks for sharing your dream with me. It sounds like you had a really intense experience, and I can sense how distressing it must have been for you to feel so trapped and overwhelmed by those shadows representing your past.

    Dreams like this one often reflect unresolved feelings and fears. The shadows you saw could symbolize aspects of your past that you’re struggling to confront or let go of. The distorted faces of friends and family might suggest feelings of guilt or disappointment, perhaps stemming from memories that haunt you or unresolved issues in your relationships. This indicates a deep emotional struggle that may be weighing heavily on your heart.

    Your experience of being unable to move while witnessing this chaos can signify feelings of helplessness in your waking life. It’s common to feel paralyzed by past regrets or fears, which can manifest in dreams when we’re grappling with our emotions. The act of finally moving to your mother’s side shows a longing for comfort and support, indicating that you may be seeking reassurance and understanding in times of distress.

    The interaction with your mother in the dream also stands out. Her response to your fears might mirror your own feelings of being dismissed or underestimated when you express your worries. This could be a reflection of how you perceive your emotional state in your waking life—perhaps feeling that others don't fully grasp the severity of what you're experiencing.

    Given the intensity of the nightmare and the high emotional level, it’s clear that these feelings are significant for you. It’s important to acknowledge how deeply these experiences impact you. Processing these emotions can be vital for your well-being, and understanding them may help you navigate through this challenging time. I'm here to support you as you explore these feelings further.

I Dreamt Of Traveling Back To The Past

I was listening to music again while I worked. This is another vision.

I got a peek into my past life.
I was a Native American. I was preparing furs for my tribe. I felt voices around me, children playing, people talking. None of it had to do with me, and for the first time, I felt at peace.
