Dispiacere is on the dream path to enlightenment
Default Ants!!!!

Ok, if you dont wanna hear a quick example of what is going on in my life, then ignore the bolded paragraph, but it might be usefull in interpritating

I have just graduated highschool and lately I have been depressed, feeling worthless about my life. I can't get a job or get my driving license until I get something from the government(long story). But probably about 2 days before and since graduation I have been having a crazy amount of dreams. Where I used to have about 10-12 a month, I am now having about 2-3 a night. Each time, I have been waking up feeling rather uneasy. This dream I am about to tell you about was the same, their was like 2-3 dreams before it but I can't remember then, only this one.

I am in a white room with my mom and boyfriend, I point to this eggsack that looks very spiderlike but in this case holds ants. I pointed it out to show them and it got stuck on my fingernail. This was no big deal to me because I thought I would just show it to them and put it back on the white wall. I turned my head to listen to my mom and turned back and the eggsack had hatched, but only about 5 babies were present moving around on my finger. For whatever reason I lifted up a bit of skin that overlaps the fingernail in attempts to find out what happened there was a sore under the skin, where all the ants that hatched had filed into and entered my body!!!
Freaked out I hoped my skin(dunno how) on my arm and saw 2 lines of ants moving toward my elbow and moving from my elbow to my hand. My muscle looked really like pink and almost bloodless, but looked more like a skinned animal. My bones were showing, apparantly their was a hollowness to the inside of my arm as I opened it, so it was almost like a compartment that I opened to see the ants and muscle and bone. My bones weren't really bones, if you can imagine a PEZ dispencer, and how it looks with all the colorfull candy bunched into a transparent tube, that is what my bones looked like except the PEZ candies where made of plastic. I showed my boyfriend in disgust the ants, and he freaked out also, I was panicing of all the bugs in my body. I shook my arm upside down to get the ants out, although all the ants fell out so did my PEZ bones(weird, i know) I quickly picked up all the pieces and put them back into the transparent tube that was my bone. I reshook the ants out seconds later, this time holding the PEZ plastic pieces in with my other hand. It was my left arm if that is significant at all.

So, any ideas on what that dream meant?

Sorry to hear that you are depressed. Been there, done that. It will get better in time.

What I get from the imagery is that something (obviously) is "bugging" you. It's getting "under your skin."

Your bones in the dream are hollow like a Pez despenser, which could represent the hollow feeling of depression about your life. Bones are the "backbone" or strength of the human body. But ants are a pact, or colony species that work together in harmony to survive as a family.

In sum, you feel you are not getting strength from community (family and government) in helping you to prop up, or be the person you want, or supplying the tools you need to improve.
