Your interpretations are always enlightening. I would say that currently I am stuck in a negative routine. Constant depressive thoughts and a little too much booze. I know that I need to change. I know what I want to do and it is within my grasp buts its like I am almost afraid of success. I have probably been telling myself for the last four years that this change needs to take place and yet I continue to procrastinate.

Samuel,
It seems the last part of the dream is pointing to a solution. Or perhaps a resolution. This fits with Jung's theory of dream structure where the ending does provide a resolution to the emotional conflicts.

The dream images interpreted from the end of the dream.
-Native America/Amazonian people emerge-instinctual energies emerge
-need to stop/squat down-end influences/stand firm
-take notice of two arrows sticking out of ground-
-bow tossed in my direction-pursuit of goals as you direction
-stand up/feel at ease-taking a stand/ at ease with decision/self
-pick up bow/look for arrows/can not find them-taking charge/eliminating controlling energies

What was your interpretation of the arrows?

Samuel,
The arrow images were difficult yo interpret beyond 'piercing' aspects. The dream language 'from out of no where a few arrows are fired into the ground around us' would represent motivating energies out of the unconscious that influence who you are, your grounding, your foundations. Unconsciously, and sometimes consciously, this would cause 'panic' or alack of control over the unconscious energies. These unconscious aspects cause you to go in the opposite direction you should. My sense is you want you change negative attitudes but because of the strong unconscious energies built on early life foundations as well as other current energies/issues {social pressures-the machine} you at times feel you want to abandon these desires. Instinctively if not consciously you are aware there is something not right and, as the ending of the dream suggests, you are beginning to be aware of 'piercing' aspects and the cause for them {the bow}. For reasons you can only know there is either something that has caused you to want to make positive changes or the dream pointing to the need to make changes in your developed attitudes. The 'I stand up and feel at ease with these people' suggest you are doing something positive but there are still obstacles to getting there. You pick up the bow {aware you need to make changes in your attitudes} but are still unaware of the unconscious energies that cause the attitudes {proceed to look for the arrows but cannot find them}. You interest in your dreams is an important step in finding these 'arrows'/the energies from early life that unconsciously motivate your personality and attitudes.

With the little knowledge I have about a dreamer who posts a dream {age and gender} it is difficult to evaporate in great detail to the meaning/application of every image/action, especially recent personal experiences. Many images can hold deeper possibilities, an arrow having a head that is triangular and stalk that could point to something personal beyond the arrow image itself. But with the great success I have in analyzing dreams with the little knowledge I do have, with greater knowledge about the dreamer I am convinced I could analyze the dream in such detail to discover what the issues are the dream is trying to communicate. Dreams are a direct link to the unconscious and instead of having to spend untold hours in trying to summons what is hidden a simple dream can give up these details. Dreams are not a great mystery any longer. We know they have a language of symbol and metaphor and they are about the emotions and emotional conflicts/issues. Being able to correctly interpret the images and actions and discerning patterns of emotional behavior is how we go about getting to the intended dream message. I say intended because I do believe dreams are nature's device in help healing emotional conflicts. Just as nature provided the body with an immune system, it also created the dream for the psyche. We not only know the the intent of dreams {help resolve emotional issues}, we know why {nature's device}.

Note: I do request a response to my analysis. My services are free and a response is the least that can be given. A contribution of any amount to my Kitty Fund would be appreciated but not required.
