reoccuring dream

Hello! I have a reoccurring dream that I have always been curious about.

It started when I was around 10, and persisted on and off for 7 years, then it kinda stopped. I have had the dream maybe 10 times.

In the dream I am on a gray plane, nothing else, no sky or ground but I am standing on a floor. Three things happen in the dream before I (violently) wake up.

There is a speck that looks like chewed up food that has the weight of an apple, and the shape, but its as if the speck is suspended in an invisible apple.

Then there is a quarter (Its also an elephant in the way that things in dreams can be) that is very far away but at the same time blown up huge. The size of the quarter is so huge and dense it feels like I'm being ripped up by its gravity.

After this short dream it is like 5AM and I wake up terrified, sometime so terrified that I am incoherent for 10 min. During this little freak out I remember it later as completely serene, even though my parents have told be how crazy and manic I actually was.

Anyway, whatever light or info you can share would be fun, I don't get the dream anymore but I have also never had EXACTLY the same dream before, multiple times to boot!

    Hi Fenrox,

    The first thing to look at is: what was going on between the ages of 10 and 17 for you? Recurring dreams happen whenever a recurring issue comes up, so there was something going on during that time that is no longer current for you if you are no longer having the dream.

    In order to get into the symbolism for this one I would need to ask you specific questions about your associations to the speck of chewed up food, apples, elephants and quarters. If you are game for going deeper, answer these question and I’ll help you piece it together:

    (fill in each blank with each of the items, food speck, apple, etc)

    What do you think of _______?

    What kind of people have or use_______?

    What was the ______ in your dream like?

    What is/are _______ in waking life like?
