To sleep, perchance to dream... of boots...


Really odd dreams last night! And just as a disclaimer, I don't hold a lot of stock with dream interpreations/meanings/etc, but I do think that what we dream often is some part of our subconscious giving us a mental kick to try to get us to think about things in waking life.

Anyways, the dream things that stick out the most are as follows, with their apparent "meanings" from a dictionary site (see down in the list under fun stuff).

Sunburn
To dream that you have a sunburn, indicates that there is an emotional situation or problem that you can no longer avoid. There is some urgent matter that is literally burning through to your soul and demands your immediate attention. Righty... And the fact that I woke up after that dream and was like, "Ugh, blankets off!" because it was too warm has nothing to do with it... *lol*

Bicycle
To dream that you are riding a bicycle, signifies your desires to attain a balance in your life. You need to balance work and pleasure in order to succeed in your current undertakings. Makes sense.

Nature
To dream of nature, denotes freedom, tranquility, restoration, and renewal. It may represent that your internal instincts are experienced and expressed.

Road
To see a road in your dream, indicates your sense of direction and pursuit of your goals. To see a smooth road bordered by green trees and flowers, denotes a steady progress and steady climb up the social ladder.

Shopping
To dream that you are shopping, indicates your needs and desires. Consider what you are shopping for and what needs you are try to fulfill.

Boots
To see or dream that you are wearing boots, refers to the power in your movement and the boldness of your position. You are taking a firm stance (also think shoes, which means: In general, shoes represent your approach to life. It suggests that you are well-grounded or that you are down to earth. It also represents your convictions about your beliefs. If you are changing your shoes, then it refers to your changing roles. You are taking a new approach to life. If your forget your shoes, then it suggests that you are leaving restraints behind you. You are are refusing to conform to some idea or attitude).

White
White represents purity, perfection, peace, innocence, dignity, cleanliness, awareness, and new beginnings. You may be experiencing a reawakening or have a fresh outlook on life. Yay for buying new white boots, then!

Clothes
To dream of your clothes, is symbolic of your public self and how you are perceived. It is indicative of the act you put on in front of others. Clothes is also an indication of your condition and status in life... To dream that you are constantly changing your clothes, represents the need for change and your need to fit into a new situation or role. You need to establish a new self-image. Perhaps related to the white boots, who knows.

Interesting enough, I guess! Oh, and the painting is The Dreamers by Albert Joseph Moore.
