I dreamed I was inside a huge mansion with spacious rooms and a magnificent view of the ocean. Each window had gauze curtains that blew inside the room with the breeze. I ended up with a man in a fur vest, Henry VIII-like, sitting at a massive table. Bowls of fruit and piles of spareribs and turkey legs were on the table. We ate and he toasted me with wine. I looked down and my feet were bare and my robe comfortable and I was beautiful. - Valerie 50, Myrtle Beach, SC

Lauri: My, my what a lovely dream! The mansion is a reflection of the self. You must feel quite good about yourself and have grand ideas with lots of room to grow intellectually, spiritually or perhaps even career-wise, hence the spacious rooms. The breeze is an important element to this dream, believe it or not. Wind in dreams is connected to changes that are blowing through your life, the winds of change so to speak. A breeze however suggests the changes are kind and gentle and are a “breeze” for you to handle. Let’s talk about the man with the vest. He is likely your male side, that part of you that has a “vested” interest in being assertive and taking action on this situation. All the food shows us that your desires, your hungers are being fed. You are enjoying the fruits of your labor, perhaps with even some to “spare,” hence the spareribs! You are toasting yourself for a job well done!! Interesting that your feet are bare. Have you “bared” your “sole” to someone recently? From this dream, it seems all is well!

Valerie replies: You are right on. I have been baring my soul in all kinds of ways, to friends, on paper and so on. This has been an amazing career time for me with many options. Much of the work I have done before, the “fruits” of my labors, are beginning to blossom indeed and there are plenty of opportunities for me, enough to spare. The winds of change are blowing in my life.
