Auntie Em, a twister! A twister!



Symbols in this Dream
Tornado, Money, Beach, Bicycle, Recurring Dream

The Dreamer
This submission was by Alia Calano. She has had recurring dreams centered around tornadoes. A recurring dream can happen for the following reason: "The need for repetition indicates that the same or similar situation is present in the life and so the same message is pertinent for the dreamer’s progression." http://www.som.org/1dreams/reruns.htm

The Dream
#1
The first one was about a tornado in vegas, that pretty much tore down the strip and money was flying everywhere. I had to walk home from work, and we could still see the tonado just pushing its way through. I watched the stratosphere fall to peices.
#2
The second I was by a beach, and cliffs, and the day was clear, I was on a bike and i saw the tornado form.. there were about 3 tornadoes in that dream..

The Interpretation
On both occasions that Alia had these tornado dreams she was in a relationship. In Book 2, under my citations, it says that a tornado signifies "Emotions and urges against which we feel powerless, and which may become obsessive." I don't necessarily think that the emotions associated with the tornado are negative, despite tornadoes being viewed in a negative light. They can be any type of emotion, love, hate, elation, sadness....
In the first dream Alia saw money. Money symbolizes power. The  money in Alia's dream was being blown around and carried away. There is a possibility that she felt like she was losing power at this time in her life or felt powerless against something that was happening.
In the second dream, Alia felt more peaceful. The setting in which her second dream took place was at the beach. The beach represents an emotional openess to new experiences.
The last symbol is the bicycle. It represents "pursuing your own path".
The reason that I broke this dream down into symbols is because I want Alia to see the parallels between her dreams and the events that were happening in her life at the time of the dreams. I want Alia to see for herself what her subconscious was trying to tell her through her dreams.

Leftovers
Recurring dreams are not a coincidence. We have them when our inner self is trying to send us an important message, something we need to pay attention to. Recurring dreams are the road signs of life. "Slow down", "Yield", "Stop"...
