Dream about The Lark

Wow strange dreams. It started with a lot of random weird stuff that I can't exactly remember except that there was a lot of sex involved. At one point I was kissing a girl who I had previously found repulsive. I had to explain to people that I really did like her because they assumed that I was just using her for sex or something (which I wouldn't do, BTW).

At one point, I opened my closet and there were all new clothes, in a trendy style I have never worn. I looked at the price tag on one suit and was appalled that it cost $79 (Yes, I realize that is actually super cheap for a suit, and I suppose that illustrates how far removed from the norm I've become on this point... even more far removed since becoming a Buddhist. I would really rather wear a simple wool robe!) One thing worth nothing is that the clothing was average size instead of chubby size. I hope that part comes true :P

In the last part of my dream, my friend Adam showed me a greeting card that he said he'd found at a friend's house. I read the poem in it, and simultaneously I heard Whitney Houston singing it, and I burst into tears at the end.

I wrote the poem/song down as best as I could remember and titled it "The Lark." I think it is quite nice and might try to get it published. It's a letter to God with a similar theme to "Tears of a Clown" (which, it should probably be noted, was my private theme song in kindergarten).

INTERPRETATION (via DreamMoods.com):

To see larks flying in your dream, symbolize high aspirations. To hear larks singing in your dream, signify success, pleasure and joy. You need to consider a change of environment in order to find happiness. [Interesting.]

To hear someone sing in your dream, signifies emotional and spiritual fulfillment. Your mood is changing for the positive as your outlook in life is looking up.

To hear or write songs in your dream, indicate that you are looking at things from a spiritual viewpoint. Your future will be filled with happiness and wealth. Consider the words to the song that you are dreaming about for additional messages. [It was a message about mental wellness, which I believe is my mission in life, and also a message for me to remember to laugh and be joyful.]

To dream about sex, refers to the integration and merging of contrasting aspects of yourself. It represents psychological completion.

If you dream that you are kissing a stranger, then it represents acknowledgment and acceptance of the repressed aspect of yourself. [As I suspected... I believe this dream is about a slight shift in career plans which I have been contemplating. It's a path I've resisted quite heavily... and a field in which a large part of the work repulses me... but might be the correct one and the place where I can do the most good.]

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 are also an indication of your condition and status in life. To dream that you are shopping for or buying clothes, represents your anxieties about trying to fit in or being "well-suited" for your changing role. [The aforementioned path would require specific clothing.]

To see a greeting card in your dream, suggests that surprises are in store ahead.
