“Dreams are chief nourishers in life's feast.”
- from William Shakespeare’s MacBeth

Dear Dream Zone,

I had a dream that I was a taxi driver and my ex-girlfriend and her new man were in the back seat of my cab. As I drove them around, I asked them "Where to?" and the new man said, "Anywhere." The new guy had this cocky grin on his face, and I continued driving them, but we never stopped. I woke up wondering what this could mean.

Lauri:The taxi is letting you know you are currently on a temporary journey... a journey perhaps of heartbreak. Did your ex leave you for this new guy? Your dream is assuring you - by placing you in a taxi - that this is a road you will not be on for too long. Your ex and her new boyfriend are in the backseat because they are still in the back of your mind. He tells you "anywhere," because at this point, you may be feeling like whatever you do, where ever you go, they are always on the back of your mind. YOU are the driver, which means you are the one in control of this feeling. You can continue to let it bother you or you can stop this ride right now and find something else to occupy the back of your mind. Good luck!

Jason replies:Yes, she left me for him. I was heartbroken when she did. The dream came to me on a night when I heard she was in town with him. I know that I'm in control of where I go from here. The hard part is that we have lots of memories together, so it's hard to just forget about them in a short time. It's just a matter of time before new thoughts start to take over, and I think I'm already on my way. Slowly, but surely.

Dear Dream Zone,

I dreamed I was running around what seemed to be from plateau to plateau trying to find the right bear suit.  I remember being told not to put on the red suit because they would catch me.  I was jumping to plateaus of differing heights and then putting on a bear suit and jumping to the next all the while also running.  There were others in the dream but I can't recall what they looked like or who they were.  The bear suits were all different colors but the red one stood out so much that I can't recall the other colors.

Dr Katia: It sounds like a competition of some sort, the “game of life” where we try to avoid hazards. This is the bear race, not the rat race. Life is a bear, the market is a bear market - in other words things are looking “down”, frustrating and irritating. Do you feel you have reached a "plateau in some area of your life, as though this is as good as it gets? Are you running around in life trying to find what (or whom) "suits you" so that you can reach a higher level than the plateau you seem to be at right now? Colors are various emotions. The color red symbolizes frustration, perhaps a touch of anger. It seems your inner guidance (the people telling you to avoid the red suit) doesn't want you to show your anger or frustration at this time.


Vikki replies: I have been in my profession for 28 years and am having issues with a new boss who is much less experienced than I. He is having my staff and me do tasks that are not related to our job. He does not like me and has been trying to make life miserable so that I will quit so I have been extremely frustrated as well as angry. I am someone who normally keeps emotions to myself but have lately been displaying these emotions due to anger and it is bothering me that I cannot contain it. I guess turning 50 was tough for me. I have felt lately that I should be doing something more than I am.


Fascinating Dream Fact:

In a recent study, participants were asked to solve scrambled word puzzles after being awakened during both the REM phase of sleep (when we dream) and the less active non-REM phases. Their performance improved by 32 percent when awakened after a dream! I love the results of this study because it proves how important dreaming is. Dreaming makes you smarter. One of dreaming's main purposes is to help you figure things out... and not just puzzles... but your life!!
