DreamBoy

Ummm, nope, I am not doing a male version of Beyonce's DreamGirls. I have just been tagged by Deepak to put down three of my weirdest dreams. While I am more than willing to do that, I shall add my own twist to it.

Ok, so back to dreaming.

Perhaps the weirdest dream I had was last weekend (Saturday night into Sunday morning). I dreamt a child was born to my uncle & aunt (my Mom laughed when I told her this) and the family was all happy. They had got the kid home from hospital when I walked in with my cousin bro (my uncles actual son). As we looked at the kid, we realized he has no eyes. No eyes meaning, he had eye-lids, but no eye-balls and the works underneath. Pull up the eye-lids and its all hollow. So I was pulling his eye-lids apart and looking in to see whats wrong (hey, its a weird dream, remember?). And my cousin bro was all panicky that there are no eyes. However, everyone around was very calm when they heard the news. And thats where it ends.

Explanation: I saw Eklavya on Saturday night where Amitabh plays an old guard with dying eyesight. There is a lot of focus on his eyes etc. in the movie and perhaps this was playing on my mind when I went to sleep.

However, what I wonder is why had nobody noticed the kid had no eyes till my cousin and I walked in?


I get this recurring dream. Its my engineering or my 12th grade examination the next day and I have completely forgetten about it. And there are these massive books, crazy diagrams, paper notes and I know it is impossible to seek in this information in a days time. Basically, I am flunking. Which is when I wake up. I must have had this dream about 3-5 times.

Conclusion: I should not have given my 12th or engineering exams!



I am getting married (there had to be one dream on this!!). However, I have no idea who the bride is. Even funnier, the marriage is on my building terrace (what we call T-Top), which is all lighted up and decorated and I am dressed up in a dhoti while all the people around me are dressed up in the typical Karan Johar movie-wedding sequence clothes. Both the sides family's are on T-Top but the girl is missing. Then someone says she is on her way from UK. The flight was delayed. Meantime my friends start calling to join them on the water tank and drink away. The girl arrives but I cant see her. All I can see is she is dressed in white and people escort her away. Suddenly there is music. Sounds like trance. Everyone starts dancing while I stand and stare. More people join in. The crowd gets intense, like a packed B.E.S.T. bus. People are clinging onto anything they see. Pipes, poles. The music plays on. T-top is packed beyond capacity with people dressed in traditional clothes dancing to trance. Suddenly the marriage has turned into a Frathouse party! Till one person falls off. And then people start jumping off T-top (which is an eight storey drop). And this is when I wake up.

Explanation: Marriage - just read my previous post. It was playing on my mind. In Mumbai, we sit on T-top every night and get drunk. I had a 13 hour stop-over in London, which might explain the UK connection. Bird keeps talking about crowded BEST buses all the time.
However jumping off the terrace and girl dressed in white? *Scratches head*

Conclusion: My marriage is gonna be one hell of a rave party!


They say one can interpret most dreams. I wont tag anyone (however, anyone who has not blogged in a while could try their hand at this), but would definitely like to hear how you interpret these dreams. Thats my twist to the tag and your homework for the day!

I've heard about lot of ppl getting this kind of a dream..Even I too get it.. 2 or 3 days before I had this weird dream that I'm writing the std 10th Language paper ( Malayalam ) ..Still I can remember some of the questions ...and having no idea about the answers . ..My friend has repeatedly mentioned his dream of going to write an engineering paper in the final semester repeatedly eventhough he has cleared it initially itself..Wonder whats the psychology behind this :)

Your Dream interpretation.

no eyes child---- yeah the eklavya eye thing played with your mind. Dreaming of giving birth to a non-human creature symbolizes that the dreamer fears the defect of the baby; can also symbolize 'rebirth' . In your case ( just may be) you may be born as a defected child in one of your previous birth.

exam thingy:- you personally do not like failing in any test( life or paper) and are afraid to give tests( basically life) in real life. You generally hate being tested by others too or matter in fact being judged.


Marriage thingy- Music in a dream more or less sets a mood for the dream. Marriage in a dream usually represents the joining of two people. It is making a commitment that should not be broken. Drinking symbolizes the 'thirst' for something. Whether a goal or a material thing, it is usually a good thing.Falling - This shows that the dreamer has failed to achieve a goal. It can also mean that the dreamer has failed to maintain a position (I.e. Marriage, a job, honor,relationship).

How was the interpretation?

First up, thanks for accepting the tag!

And now for the dreams - you really have vivid memories of your details. The last one, esp, looks a scene of some horror film. Actually, so does the first one. Your explanations look fine.

Interpreting dreams? Hmmm...

Third one - Marriage is on your mind too much. Best, get married soon :P

First one - You dream of a child, which means you wanna get married. Best, get married soon :P

Second one - You see you are flunking your exam, which by extension means that you are not satisfied with your life, and that despite all the clutter, you are lonely, which means you wanna get married. Best, get married soon :P

Ok Ok, I know the above interpretations are weirder than ur dreams, but i m sure your mom will approve. :D

#di: yes ma'am. did read your tag. on the plane was funny! :)

#Brad: Hmmm... I wonder why I would think of pied piper? If I did then the dream would prolly be tons of women following me.

#KJ: LOL! We sure do!

#Ajith: join the club! Beats me tho, what could be the reasons behind this

#Chatter: U shud quit drinking at work! Coz you actually make sense :P
"In your case ( just may be) you may be born as a defected child in one of your previous birth"
- not previous birth, its this birth. mentally defected!
"Marriage in a dream usually represents the joining of two people"
- usually, marriage, even when not in a dream represents the same :P

#Deepak: My Mom wants your phone # to discuss strategy with you on how to convince me on marriage. :P

#exclusive: find me a girl! (hot and rich). RIGHT AWAY :P

Anjali*: In my case, it doesnt take a snake in a dream to prove that! :P
