Alright, I'm about to share with you all a dream I had last night. Here we go.

*ahem*

In the dream, I was part of this criminal gang. I don't remember the details, but I think we were pretty serious. Y'know... high-tech gadgets and big fish to catch. I and few other people were the lesser members of the gang, and we were hanging out outside of the place the rest of the gang was robbing. It was the middle of the night. We were all conspicuously wearing black like all criminals must and may or may not have had weapons.

Anyway. The rest of the gang came out of the building and decided that they didn't want to split the cash with us. We were too dangerous to keep around. Next thing I knew I was face down on the ground.

I heard the one guy's voice. He said, "All right, which one of you wants to die first?"

I figured, "Eh, what the hell?" So I raised my hand.

I felt the barrel of a gun pressed against the base of my skull. I closed my eyes. I had a funny sensation in the back of my head and I felt like I was disoriented.

Then I woke up.

So. Good people of NS... I ask of your opinions. What the heck is this supposed to mean? Do I need my head examined?

*Ahem* I know what it means. There are two possible meanings, one being that you'll join a gang and be killed by a fellow member, and the other is that you have syphillis. :D

You have criminal tendencies, a distrust of your fellow felons, and are likely to cut in line just to be first ;)

Does internet piracy count as criminal tendencies? You're probably right about my inability to trust people, but you're wrong about the last thing. I usually wait for everyone else to go before me. ;)

I've dreamed with being killed many times. Probably the weirdest was when the world ended and all of us people were taken to this big movie theatres to be shown an instructional film :D

Or the time I was in the beach sniping people and one of those I had killed got up, took a shotgun and shot me in the head.

They don't bother me. I just go "wow, that's weird" the next day when I wake up.

Dream interpretations = fuzzy..
its hard to tell what your dream means. it could be anywhere from guilt due to illegal activities (internet piracy) to fear that your friends are going to get into trouble.

The brain also doesnt act the same during nightmares.. they aren't controlled electrical impulses; rather, they are extreme bursts of energy coupled with physical distress...
therefore, it could mean nothing.

I would most likely say its your conscience (sp?) telling you that you have done somthing bad and to stop before punishments occur.

I'm more curious about why I raised my hand. I thought it was pretty funny, since it doesn't seem like me at all. Usually when I've had dreams about being helpless and about to die I either run and get away (usually to die later) or something happens to get me out of the situation.

Can't say that I have, I guess that means I'm not suppressing any subconscious fears of spontaneous combustion :D

I had a weird dream I got shot in the back while fighting in a forest during a war, once. I assume it was WW1 as I was holding an M1-Garand and struggling to load a clip when I got shot and I was wearing a WW1 style helmet. I woke up with a pain in my back for a couple of seconds. Come to think of it, a lot of my dreams involve war. In another one I was a slinger firing rocks at a group of charging cavalry. As for what kink's dream meant, I think it was that there is a problem in their life they feel the need to take responsibility for. Either that,or a calmness about death.

well, im dreammoods.com-ing it so....

The gang part means: To dream that you are a gang member, signifies your need to achieve and accomplish things through force and intimidation.

To dream that you are confronted or threatened by a gang, signifies circumstances or situations in your waking life which are overwhelming and you feel has ganged up on you.

The theft means: To dream that you are stealing, denotes that you are deprived and where the stealing takes place (at home, the office, at school....) is indicative of your neediness. Alternatively, it may signify unrealized and unfulfilled goals. You may have set your goals too high.

The gun/pistol means: To see a gun in your dream , symbolizes aggression, anger, and potential danger. You may be dealing with issues of passiveness/aggressiveness and authority/dependence. Alternatively, a gun can represent the penis and male sexual drive. Thus the gun may mean power and impotence.
To dream that someone is shooting you with a gun, suggests that you are experiencing some confrontation in your waking life. You may feel victimized in some situation.

There you go! Of course, their could be many many meanings to it. This website is what works for me, but it might not work for you... I think it sounds accurate though.

All it means is that it was a dream; you don't need your head examined. I had a dream once where I was being robbed at work, and a guy was starting to stab me in my ribcage. Just as the knife was about to break my skin, I woke up, and I could still feel the pain from the knife poking into me. Creepy.

Every single dream I've had has had at least one thing in it that pertains to something I either did or thought about recently. Dreams are your brain processing information from recent events. Of course, there's always random stuff in there, too.

If there is a special meaning to it, it could be a sign that you're worried about something, or something like that. But if that were the case, you'd most likely be able to figure that out yourself; it'd probably be obvious if you thought about it.

Dreams are neat. :) (Except when they're scary....)

Freudian time!



You zee, zis is quite clear to me. It is apparent zat your id is attempting to overrcome you. You are allowing your inner instincts to get you involved within criminal activities, or considering zeese activities. However, your ego is running a check against your inner id. Your ego is showing you zee rational ends to your criminal activities, and zat if you allow your id to run wild, the eventual end is an untimely death. Thus, your ego is telling you zat although criminal life may seem alluring and prospective, all things are payed for in zee end.

And that you have untapped sexual tension with your mother.

I would add that raising your hand to be shot indicates feelings of guilt or regret.

It's an interesting dream. It sounds to me like your mind trying to tell you something, but I guess you'd have to be the one to decide what that is.

Or self-sacrifice?

Or a sense of adventure (knowing on some level it wasn't real)? Guilt and regret dont' usually come with a "Eh.. why not?"

YOu have a mid- level corporate job , your bosses are the "big" gang members, you're a "little" gang member. You're afraid of being fired. Raising your hand means you feel guilty for stealing office supplies.

Take 2 valium and don't eat pizza before bed. :p

Dreams... what can you say.

I had a dream recently where I, after having killed some people chasing me(I think they were mercenaries of some sort), I had to hide by pressing my head and body below the sand of the beach the dream took place in. When I got up, it all changed and I found myself in a civilization where cakes had great importance. :confused: I've got weirder before, but I can't really remember.
