You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Paintings are usually about ideals. A tree inside of a house (possibly parents) sounds like the attention is being brought to family tree and ideals you have in this regard. Did you like the houses less when you 'realized' they were yuppie, trendy houses? Was there judgement there? Since the dream is bringing up a high school girlfriend it could be drawing your attention to ideas you developed then. There isn't enough here for me to go very deep with it but your feelings and reactions to the realization that they were those kinds of houses will be telling. Perhaps this is an actual ideal you strive for?
Even though I can't get more insights for you from this snippet of dream, the fact that you made the effort to remember and write it down tells your subconscious that you are serious about putting in effort here and if you keep it up, you'll find your dream recall becoming more detailed. Yay, you!
If you remember what you were thinking and feeling about the houses, we can probably figure out a little more about why the dream was bringing this up.
yes i judged it more when i realized it was a kind of yuppie trendy thing, to build a house around a tree 🌲. idk, hard to explain. i was almost late to work today because i kept snoozing to try to gather more dream data lol. your analysis is AWESOME, wow. can I try again tonight?
Of course you can try again tonight!
Dreams certainly don't judge us (ever) when they point out our limitations or habits but we judge ourselves and also others. If you judge yuppies did this come from your own family or from bad experiences with people you went to high school with?
To give an example of why the dream might care to bring this up: I know someone who has a belief that rich people are evil. Anyone with a lot of money is selfish and cares only for themselves. While this may be true for some it is not true for all. The person with this limited belief is possibly blocking their own wealth by believing they would become someone evil if they had it. Possibly they are able to feel like a better-person because they have just enough to get by.
What if that person dropped that belief and got VERY wealthy though? It is doubtful that they would use it only to serve themselves. They would likely find creative ways to invest it in improving the world in some way - but their limited belief is in the way.
The dream may want you to examine your ideas about yuppies (what makes a yuppie, how do they behave, are THEY similar to the example above?) so that you can deconstruct them and tap more deeply into your ideals and what you want for yourself.
i think using the word "yuppie" to describe that small part of my dream that i remembered, might be a littel harsh... but then again, it WAS one of the elements i remembered... it was jus that i thought the tree inside the house was so cool... well the house was being built.... next to my gf's .... so it was like the skeleton of a house with a tree inside... like, they left the tree and were building around it.....and then i looked closer and the wall decorations accommodated the tree so i thought it was less interesting....
Maybe they seemed to care less about how cool the tree was (and weren't exactly honoring it by building around it as you initially suspected) but cared more about how trendy and cool it made them look to have a tree growing in the house (again, as opposed to just really honoring and respecting the "cool"ness of the tree)?
wow 😮 thats IT! you are very good. do you do these dream analysis’ often? i very much appreciate your thoughtful insights
Yay! That's it then. The dream is saying, without judgement, that you also have this trait as well. More than honoring yourself, your accomplishments, your body or your style as being a part of your authentic expression and therefore enjoying yourself as the unique and creative expression of who you are, you tend to value how you'll be received by others for "insert attribute here". Ideally (paintings have to do with ideals), you would honor yourself instead of concerning yourself about the opinions of others. That is not to say that we don't enjoy compliments or other people as well, but that no ones opinion of you should have power to influence how you present yourself. Easier said than done, I know.
Yes, I do this often. :)
