There's a familiar dreamscape I go to every once in a great while. It's a huge cemetery with a waterfall towards the beginning of it. It has an odd feeling to it. The energy is thicker. Feels so magical. But I've never been there in real life. Last night I dreamt that I moved to a nonexistant house next door to my ex. I dreamt I was trying to avoid him and his family seeing that I lived there. I drove to this cemetery and walked inside at nightfall. I sat next to the waterfall and was possessed. My ex was watching me through the trees. He killed a deer and two pheasants and took pictures with them. The deer he stood in front of and it looked like a big tree trunk with a deer carved in it. He brought the carcasses to me. Somehow by doing this it would save me. I was talking to him next to the waterfall. I had a man-ish voice with a french accent. I wish I could remember what I was saying. It felt so important. Like an insight into my life. There were other parts to the dream. Like I owned a dog and was walking it(do not own one in reality). And I was visiting my bf at his work which was a big retail store like a home depot or somewhere. And in another part was stopping in this little animal cracker bakery store where this older lady with an accent made oversized homemade animal crackers. The cemetery part seemed the most intense. Any insight? Anyone else have certain dream places they go to a lot that feel different?
If we just focus on the cementary it could be the place where your past is buried, all those projects and plans that became nothing - we all have those. This would be the natural place for you to meet your ex, since this is where your former relationship has gone. Maybe you idealize him a bit as the "big hunter", but him giving you gifts is important since that is a symbol of letting go and just keeping the good memories which are now "yours". The waterfall in contrast to this as it would represent renewal and life, it is never the same water, and also power and energy - a very raw and wild type of this.
that makes a lot of sense. thank you Thinking on it now I think the whole possession part stems from how I felt he never got to know me for me. He was always trying to make me into something I wasn't. And I did the same to him.
