I had a very curious dream last night that I woke up out of so suddenly and startled...I had to make sure I googled it to see what I could find about it. I always have weird dreams...vivid dreams...but usually I either forget them, or if I remember them, can find some sort of possible meaning. For this one...I'm having a hard time...so I'd like to hear what anyone else might think it means.
The only part I remember...is that there was a snake in front of me...whether I was holding it in front of me or not is vague, but it seems like I was. I was grasping it's neck...right behind the neck..being careful of not letting it too lose. And I felt like I had to be quick about what I was doing. Suddenly, before it could bite me...I bit it...right through the head. I didn't bite the head OFF...just through it...through the nose. And I remember the mouth of the snake fizzing...almost like it had rabies but it didn't. And I remember that my teeth burned as I started to pull them out and I was starting to worry about the poison...and then I woke up. But I didn't just wake up...I jumped up...as if something had startled me...but when I woke up it seemed like nothing had happened to wake me up. And I was terrified for a few minutes until I calmed down and went back to sleep and dreamt about god knows what.
I looked it up...but found nothing of people dreaming about biting snakes...just about being bitten by them. And I looked for any other behavior, outside of the dream world, of biting snakes...but all I could find was biting the snake's head off.
What I did find about what the snake represents...leads me to think it was a symbol for me having somehow conquered some sort of evil. But I think it's bullshit because...I don't feel like I've conquered shit.
So if anyone has an idea of what you think it means...let me know. I'd be interested to hear different thoughts on what it might be.
In other news...we're poor. I didn't say the news was new, did I?
There seems to be more this month that we need. Things are running out and...we're having to buy things for other people. We don't have rent put aside yet and we barely have any more days left of working...a big thing is that Robert is helping out with a wedding...so not only did that mean buying a wedding gift and the right clothes to wear to it...but it also means he took more days off work so that he could be there for them...so we're losing money there too. I didn't think to save up extra for weddings. Guh.
I think we'll be okay as long as the babysitting thing kicks in soon. Which again, I can't do until this wedding thing is over this weekend. But also I'll be working for a lot less than I'm worth...which right now is better than nothing but...it won't help out as much as I'd like.
I think this month is the worst...I don't have a job yet, Robert's trying to find a new one, the wedding is a bit of a struggle, and our food is running out. It'll be fine, I know...but it doesn't stop me from worrying about it. And me worrying about it stresses Robbie out to no end...so then it strains on our relationship. I can see how things like money would tear apart a couple...if it was severe enough.
Anyways we're off to do errands....sometime it feels like we have nothing to do...other times all we have TIME to do is stupid errands.
WHY IS THERE SO MUCH TO DO!? lol
Anyways more later. Love to ya'll

hey sweetie,
one way to look at a dream is to ask: what part of you is the snake? is there a snake in you that you've bitten, or want to bite?
a source of info is Animal Speak by Ted Andrews... you might find that at your library...
as for being poor, yes, it's stressful, and yes, you'll get through it, and yes, it's hard, and yes, there is much to learn in it... I'm thinking of you and loving you from afar...
yer paw
Hi Kate! It's Mom and Cynthia here (after 2 glasses of wine - well, I think she actually had 3) and Cynthia knows a lot about dreams so I'm typing for her.
I think it's more about the face than the actual biting of the snake. Biting or thinking about the face or anything to do with the face is about emotions - needing to understand someone else's emotions or needing to express or hide your own emotions, or thinking that someone is hiding emotions from you. It's all around getting in touch with emotions at some level.
I have to look up the snake - it is a strong dominant male symbol (Robbie?). I think worrying about the poison is worrying about what your are revealing about your emotions or what someone else is revealing about their emotions.
BYE!
