Valuable

Dreaming A young woman is lying on the carpet on a landing in labour. There are two or three midwives with her. One of the midwives asks me to help out. She asks me to hold the baby while she delivers the baby. (The two acts are going on at the same time, involving the same baby.) She wants me to either hold the baby in my arms or lay it on a white sheet on top of a narrow strip of something. I think this…

Competition

Dreaming There is a competition; I am one of six finalists. We are sitting in two rows of three facing away from each other. To my left are two men; to my right, a large audience. The female host instructs one of the men to sing; he does really well. The next man also does well. I don’t know why I have been chosen; my voice is nowhere near as good as theirs. I’m dreading my turn but think if I put the effort in I could be quite…

Self-Conscious

Dreaming I’m at home; Josh comes home feeling happy. Tom goes up to his bedroom; I can hear him shouting at Josh. I go to Josh, and Tom leaves; Josh is hurt and upset. I ask Josh what it was about; he said he was at Danny’s, needed a poo, chose the toilet that had no door and was open for all to see, and that a woman had come along and seen him. She had reported back to everyone else, and Josh thought it was funny. I’m at a hospital in the waiting room with Susie,…

Buried

Dreaming I am in the living room with Amelia and Rosie. I ask them to watch Annie while I go to the toilet. I go into the bathroom, sit on the toilet and have a poo. When I’m finished, I flush the toilet. Although it flushes, afterwards, the water laps over the top of the…

Ages

Dreaming I am in a bathroom going to the toilet (excrement) with my Mum and John in there with me. I feel self-conscious and a little embarrassed, but I go anyway. When it comes to cleaning myself, I don’t want to do it in front of them, but I am aware they must think I’m…

Wipe

Dreaming I am sitting in a chair with a door ahead of me. Tom is slightly in front, on the right, sitting on a toilet. Once he’s finished, he wipes his shit on my face. Responding The dream’s meaning seems so obvious. I’m being passive in this situation with Tom, and because of my passivity and lack of action, Tom is literally able to put all of his ‘shit’ onto me. Shit…

Nearer

Dreaming I am in a garden that I recognise as being Belinda’s. While it is her garden, it is mine in some way, too. The grass is long. I enter from the back of the garden; I want to get to the front, nearer the house. I have bare feet, and as I put my foot down,…

Kneel

Dreaming I am in Mary’s house, but it isn’t actually her house; it belongs to Sonia and Eric. Everyone there has been searching for a song called The Simple Life. I go into the living room, and a dog jumps up at me in a friendly way. He jumps really high, level with the head…

Imposing

Dreaming I am living at Church Lane, but this time it belongs to me. It is the summer. Abi lives with me, and Izzy lives next door. Abi comes into the front living room; she is dressed smartly. I ask her where she is going; she tells me to a meeting, and she goes, leaving…

Intervention

Dreaming I am in my living room sitting on the sofa in the far corner. Tom is sitting on the floor directly opposite me. Andy is sitting diagonally to me, and Mum and Dad are on the sofas too. Abi comes into the room, crawls across the floor, sprawls out provocatively and flirts madly with…
