Re: I Guess I'm an Oaf

Wow your interpretation makes a lot of sense. I have one Maybe two close relationship so my grandpa dying could be not having close relationships. In my dream I viewed my aunt and cousin as selfish and materialistic. There's probably some part of me that feels like that. I know I hold some resentment towards my dad for not helping me monetarily, since he is basically rich buy has not helped me a dime since I moved out. Also he worked a lot during my childhood and was never really around. I had never realized that I even felt ignored like that but not just by him but by his entire side of the family since I was little. I was always the youngest but my aunt was only a year older than me. When I was younger I would always try to get her to play but she just wanted to sleep or something even when she came to our house. My other aunts are older and have never really paid much attention to me. I was never close with them. Because of this I also ignore them. I ditch our easter brunch yesterday. I mostly avoid hem. I try to get out of going there whenever possible because it's still so boring everything I go out there. They all talk about "which new iPhone should I get." And I feel like I cannot relate because I have repressed the side of myself that likes those kinds of things and I pretend not to.

Also I think for my gather it's can be looked at as me not being heard. My opinion was never important or even relevant. It was always about what they wanted to do and I still have this attitude. The missing part of me is me not listening to myself and still doing what I'm "supposed to."

Thank you for your help

Re: I Guess I'm an Oaf

Anonymous,
Thanks for your response. It verifies what I saw in this short dream and offers more insights to how dreams function. I ask for a response to my analysis/interpretations specially for this reason, to demonstrate how dreams use symbolic images as metaphors to the emotional energies of the dreamer. All dreams are tools for learning more about the unconscious stimuli/motivators. Every dream has a message {usually two or more} and because of the insights of Jungian psyche we can translate the images/symbols and understand what the messages are. Dreams are no longer the great mystery they once were because of Jung's efforts.

About Your Dream
Your dream spoke to exactly what you provided about your life, aspects related to those people who should/could have offered more emotional support when you were young as well as what the emotional issues were/are. When known persons are imaged in a dream, especially relatives, the relationship with them is often the focus of the dream. But their presence points toward emotional energies within you they represent as well as the relationship itself {known persons who are not relatives or who are extremely close usually point to traits they possess you identify with and not so much the relationship with them}. Your grandfather's hospice care denoted your own need for emotional urgent care {"so I was there too"} which you failed to receive from your father {"I kept trying to tell my father, but he seemed to be ignoring me for some reason"} as well as others. This made you feel less than you should have been and personality wise likely remains an issue, an issue as a result to being 'ignored' {"She/cousin called me an oaf}. The actions in the dream presented a recognizable pattern once the images/symbols were interpreted and understood. A trained dream analyst {using Jungian psyche} will be able to interpret the images/symbols and will recognize the patterns, metaphorical references to the dreamer's emotional life. Your dream was clear in its message {at least in my mind} and your response verifies the analysis.
