THE DREAM ZONE |
with Lauri Quinn Loewenberg I dreamed I was a gerbil running from a dog in an airport! Then the dream switched and I was in a cage with a wheel and sawdust. Beth, 20, Chapel Hill, NC Lauri: Dogs in dreams often symbolize loyalty and companionship. Are you having any issues in the ol' relationship department? Or perhaps even with a friendship? Running from the dog means you are avoiding something, running from some issue, unwilling to face it or have a confrontation. However, the airport is telling you that you are in a situation—or a relationship—that has great potential, that could "take off" and reach new heights. Unfortunately, your inner mind sees yourself as a gerbil. This means you feel this relationship—or this friendship—is going nowhere, like a gerbil on an exercise wheel in a cage. It's the same old, same old. I believe the message is that things will never change, progress or "take off" unless you confronts this issue. Beth replies:This is an "oh wow" interpretation! I am dating one guy that I think is too immature but have great chemistry with. Another guy is pressuring me to date him, but I just don't feel that way about him. He is just a friend. I haven't given him a definite "no" yet. I guess I need to make a decision here. Thank you!lf of some forms of frustration and negativity. Thank you so much for bringing to light "my ability" to flush away and that I am moving toward success. Fascinating Sleep Fact: According to a 2002 "Sleep in America" poll, people slept an average of 10 hours a night before Thomas Edison's invention of the light bulb; today Americans average 6.9 hours of sleep on weeknights and 7.5 hours per night on weekends.
