This Morning's Dream..

I don't remember the whole thing, I can only remember bits and pieces of it. But here's what I remember of it...

So in my dream, I was living on a ranch. But the ranch owner was not a good guy. And somehow I keep going to these weddings that are being planned by this wedding planner guy and his partner (wedding planner partner not Partner partner...). So in the final wedding in my dream for some reason instead of chairs, we are all lying on beds and watching the wedding like a movie on a big screen. (Hence the inclusion of movie theater it was kind of like being at a drive in except we were all in beds). Anyway this wedding planner whom I had been flirting with at the other weddings was lying on the bed with me and he kept inching closer until he was lying on top of my left arm/left side of my body and we were whispering and talking. He was wearing a hat so I couldn't see his face too clearly but I remember being very contented and really liking his company. Suddenly I was walking back to the ranch where I lived. The gate was open and two horses were outside the paddock. In one paddock was an elephant. As I walked through the gate, more horses were loose and I was trying to shoo them into their pens when the man in the hat came up and we started talking about the horses and the ranch owner who he said didn't care about the fact the horses were free... then I woke up. A little sad because I was really happy in the dream. Although the basic pieces of the dream are not happy...

Man: To see a man in your dream, denotes the masculine aspect of yourself - the side that is assertive, rational, aggressive, and/or competitive. If the man is known to you, then the dream may reflect you feelings and concerns you have about him.
If you are a woman and dream that you are in the arms of a man, suggests that you are accepting and welcoming your stronger assertive personality . It may also highlight your desires to be in a relationship and your image of the ideal man.

Bed: To see your bed in your dream, represents you intimate self and discovery of your sexuality. If you are sleeping in your own bed, then it denotes security and restoration of your mind. You are looking for domestic bliss and peace. If you are waking up in different and unknown beds, then it represent the consequences of the decisions you have made.
To dream that you are going to bed with a stranger, suggests that you are making friends too fast. You need to be more cautious.
To dream of sleeping outdoors on a bed, signifies success.

Wedding: To see a wedding in your dream, symbolizes a new beginning or transition. Dreams involving weddings are generally negative and highlight some anxiety or fear. It often refers to feelings of bitterness, sorrow, or death. Alternatively, wedding dreams reflect your issues about commitment and independence.

Horse: To see a horse in your dream, represents a strong, physical energy. You need to tame the wild forces. The dream may imply that you have been horsing around. Or perhaps you need to be less arrogant and "get off your high horse". If you see a dead horse in your dream, then it indicates that something in your life that initially offered you strength is now gone. This may refer to a relationship or situation.

Elephant: To see an elephant in your dream, signifies that you are laying a solid groundwork for wealth and success. You hold a position of honor and dignity. If the elephant was wild or untamed, than it indicates tyranny and uncontrollable forces.

Fence: To see a fence in your dream, signifies an obstacle or barrier that may be standing on your path. You may feel confined and restricted in expressing yourself. Are you feeling fenced in? Alternatively, it may symbolize a need for privacy. You may want to shut off the rest of the world.

Ranch: To dream that you are at a ranch, suggests that you need to take stock of your life and what you hope to achieve and gain. The dream may also refer to your own livelihood and concerns about money.

Movie: To dream that you are watching a movie, suggests that you are watching life pass you by. Perhaps you are living vicariously through the actions of others. Consider also how the movie parallels to situations in your waking life. Observe how the characters relate to you and how they may represent an aspect of yourself.

Movie Theater: To dream that you are in a movie theater, indicates that you are attempting to protect yourself from your emotions and/or actions. Viewing them on a movie screen projects them onto another person and thus makes those feelings/actions distant . You may be protecting yourself from experiencing them.

Hat: To see a hat in your dream, signifies that you are concealing something or covering up something. Alternatively, it may represent the role you play or the responsibilities you have in life.

This dream was hard to analyze, but here goes...

You are starting to take stock of your life and what you hope to achieve and gain (ranch). You are becoming more assertive and demanding as a person, which is not bad, but you view it as bad or feel guilty about it (ranch owner). One of your biggest fears is having to be dependent on other people since, in your experience, they tend to let you down. This is also a reason why you shy away from long-term commitments such as home ownership and marriage, although you secretly desire them (weddings). You are becoming more aware of these aspects of your personality (bed) and you are beginning to embrace them (wedding planner in bed), but a part of yourself remains hidden (hat). You feel like you have been fooling around or wasting time (horses loose) and that life might be passing you by (movie). Although you are becoming more aware of these feelings (bed), you feel you must protect yourself from them (movie theater) because they could lead to pain. However, your actions are laying the groundwork for wealth and success (elephant).
