I'm new to this board but I have plenty of strange dreams that I have written down over the years. Here is one. I had a dream that I was in some sort of massive warehouse with some other person but I never remembered who that was. We were searching the warehouse for a specific container but there were thousands of such containers there, from the floor to the ceiling. They were large containers, like rubbermaid ones the size of a toy box. We kept dragging them off the shelves one by one and they were so heavy. We opened them and they all had human body parts in them but we never reacted in a shocked manner. It was just what we were expecting, but we never found the one we were looking for. We just opened each one, checked it, put it back and repeated the process throughout the dream.

Hi fisher13, I've had dreams in large warehouses before; not searching through boxes though, usually chasing someone or being chased myself like in the movies - I think they use warehouses/factories a lot in sci fi movies, which I'm a big fan of and explains to a certain extent why I have such dreams.

Normal houses that you live in usually represent yourself, or your psyche - with different rooms symbolizing different aspects of yourself and thoughts and emotions.

Warehouses are kind of similar to normal houses; in waking life they store things, like the boxes you were seaching through; in dreams warehouses store your memories and thoughts and can represent your hidden resources and energy. If the warehouse is empty it can mean that you need to replenish your resources of energy.

What was the "one" you were looking for? Just curious.

We knew in the dream that we were looking for a specific container but I don't even know what or who it was supposed to be. I just knew we never found the one we were looking for because we kept putting them back and continuing looking.

Maybe it's the same in real life--you know you are missing somethng, but aren't exactly sure what it is.

Sounds about right...

OK
