Had a dream last night that made me sour. Not sure why.

I dreamed I was somewhere looking at a map and my son was there. The map was very familiar to me but it seems I was searching for a place I had never quite gotten to. My son starts talking about his Mom. Then I jump to where I'm with his Mom (My ex). Her hair was much longer than before. It was like a veil dragging across the floor. She had something woven into hair like a corona. The hair that was on the floor had like a big wooden comb in it. She was thinner too. We go to eat dinner at her place and my youngest daughter is there. Who I had not spoken to in 6 or 7 years. She pretends not to notice me. Before she had to take notice I scramble for my keys. I want out! I search for my shoes. Everything is holding me up. I finally head to my jeep. But it's not my jeep. It's my old pickup and it's on stilts about 30 feet off the ground. My son says it's a lift. Looks like stilts to me. There are 2 other pickups in the air as well. Both badly damaged from carrying too much cargo. They are somehow bowed in the middle. I want my truck down! But how. Then one of the badly damaged trucks begin to fall. I don't know where to run. I just want to leave. I then awoke.

When I woke I wanted to hide. I wanted to cancel lunch with my son which is scheduled next Monday.

    Ok this is what part of your dream means.

    Long hair means blessings. It seems that your ex is having good things going on in her life right now. Good for her. If her hair was really long it’s an abundance of blessings.

    I’m not sure about the part of your daughter.

    As for your car on stilts or the fact that it is damaged it’s not good. You maybe in a very difficult situation that you do not know how to handle. There are about 2 people in your life that is giving you grief or about to give you grief. I would really pray about it. This may mean a stand still in your life when it comes to a few issues.

    Pray about it.

    God Bless

    long hair can also just mean the passage of time.

    You're clearly feeling nervous about meeting the son for lunch.

    Not that it's any of my business AT ALL, but how could you go for years without talking to your daughter? It's just random advice from a stranger, but I think you need to do whatever you have to do to fix that. Like yesterday.

    The car is your freedom and your escape from this stress. If it's damaged from carrying too heavy of a load (you, with too much stress), then it can't help you get away from this scary situation.

    I think your mind is trying to tell you that you have to face this stuff, and cannot run away from it.

    (edited to say that I re-read and perhaps the "haven't talked to my daughter" is just in the dream, not in real life....I can't tell from the description)

    Wow! that was a bad dream. I think when a couple decides they would be better off living apart and separate, or divorce as in your case, they each want to show the other how well they are doing in their new chosen lifestyle, I think in your dream your wife showed she was doing well by having long flowing hair and being thinner. I think you felt a little insecure about your accomplishment's thus far and wanted to get away from the situation, and to see your old pickups as an insufficient method of escape was like taking you back in time when you felt trapped in an unhappy marriage and maybe when you felt a little insufficient about yourself, (at your top weight). And to top it off your daughter was there apparently giving your wife support and ignoring you, You knew the odds were stacked and you wanted out bad.
    And going back to the first part of the dream about the map, I think you have a solid plan to be better than ever before in all aspects of your life, you are well on your way and doing well, but you have not gotten to the finish line yet, and until you do any confrontation with your ex would make you feel uncomfortable.

    Unfortunately when you ask for a dream interpreter, you are going to get a different interpretation from each one and then what? Dreams are a result of our feelings and situations and experiences, or what we ate for breakfast that morning. I am not saying some dreams cannot be prophetic and I agree the situations in your dream seem that you are feeling trapped or powerless to some degree in your current situation but what are you going to do about it? Find the source. If you feel guilty apologize, if you have concerns, voice them, if you are angry let it out, in an appropriate way of course. Perhaps you feel powerless that your wife seems to have more control, or maybe that's not the right wording but you sound like your current situation is something you wouldn't have chosen or that you regret. Maybe that's where it is coming from. The mind is an amazingly complex thing!!! Good luck to you!!!!!

    Many were very very close. I suppose the map symbolizes many things, frustration with my daughter (not making the connection), not being able to find a job, my kids not showing up for dinner, and a since of lost though I'm familiar with every thing around me.

    The parts of my ex-wife I think were the concerns my kids have for her. She's not doing well. Though I don't love her my kids do. There was an unattended omission. In the dream she was pale. I remembered that later.

    I don't know if the trucks symbolize people or not. Maybe they're symbols of the burdens I carry and the fact they are out of reach indicates my frustration.

    Honestly I didn't know what to think of the dream at first until I posted it here and received feedback. I know it meant something. Hopefully it's not prophetic.

    Maybe you should lay off the Italian Sausage and Pepper Sandwiches right before bed time.
