I've had this semi disturbing dream atleast 5 or 6 times. It starts with me...swimming...in a tank. Kind of like a big indoor observation tank at a scientific aquarium or something like that. I'm not scared or anything, just kind of dazed, and I keep swimming back and forth and back and forth. I see a shadow underneath and try to swim away from it, but it keeps getting bigger and bigger. It's a whale....a huge whale. And it lifts me up a few inches. Then I wake up. What the hell?
SamSam, it's like the whale comes to support you and lift you up in a spiritual sense, asking you to be part of this world by sharing its mystery and its deeper forces, and not forget it. It's all just a play. Imagine he enjoys you as much as you enjoy him. In the womb you live in the awareness of all things connected, seeing through the windows of illusion. Then you leave as you're ready to change and grow on in awareness. And even as you bless it, the world changes too, to become complete and more whole again ... and again ... (included all the semi-fright and double-joy). Dunno if this makes sense !
Since yaou're working with water, with water representing our emotional state, the shadow growing may represent a fear. You therefore may find yourself in an emotional situation beyond your understanding, one perhaps not of your own intentional making but one which will ultimately affect you, perhaps deeply. The shadow could represent your subconscious, things hidden with fear representing your trepidation going into a situation (like thinking of having an affair even though he or you may be married. (Just an example.))
