Thank you everyone for your dreams and insights!
Anyhow, I digress.
Here is the dream. We are boarding a plane to go to the Bahamas (which is actually just a short hop from here where I live in South Florida.) We had to climb up steps, which is quite common for little island-hopper planes around here and we had to fit through a doorway that appeared to be like a cookie cutter, but different, with a twist; in fact, I almost didn't make it because my 'shape' was plain cookie cutter! I had to turn sideways and make myself fit to get in the door.
Inside the plane there are no seats; we all have to stand up and it is uncomfortable. Then we stop at a funky little open-air type of airport that is apparently only halfway there. (In real life Freeport is only an hour by air and there is nothing in between.) One person in this plane is a man who was the company pilot of my old company. One thing to know about him - when the economy was doing a nose-dive and they had to sell the company plane, he dusted off his degree in facilities management and became the Building and Grounds Manager. I think he's back to flying planes now.

Some thoughts on this - Tanner says planes can represent our high ideals, far-reaching range of interest, and global ideals. So...climbing on board you have no problem but you will have to make some changes to fit in the door and once you get in, you will not feel so comfortable at first.
This plane was an island hopper. There appears to be an interval, or a stop. Consider that you may not benefit from going directly into that field, but instead, 'hop' to something else that is not what you are doing now but not what you intend to do, or at least not totally. Maybe in the field but at an apprentice level, say.
Finally, the ex-pilot who flew the old company plane and then maintained the company buildings...I think he represents resourcefulness but in a larger sense, going from flying just the company execs around to making a direct contribution to everyone in the company - just like whatever you are doing now vs. making a contribution in a much larger sense for the environment and natural resources.
Hello, Tychonus, welcome to our dream group! I had a dream for you last night. I want to note that I hadn't read your question and when I woke with the dream imagery in my head my first thought was about not knowing the question, then another part of my brain reminded me of what we are dealing with here - dreaming telepathically and if that doesn't call for a willingness to think along the lines of our multi-dimensionality and transcend time and space, nothing does. So I can dream the answer before I know the question just as I dream events before they occur.So, a little bit of background - I am currently in the process of looking to transition to a new career field as my existing job is starting to become very "10 of Wands" and spirit-draining. I started going back to school this spring to get a new degree in environmental and natural resource management and am networking with my girlfriend's uncle to find contacts in the geo-technical industry so I can begin developing experience in the field while I study. I'd like some insight/advice into this job transition. It's a little frightening to totally change my job circumstance, as you can imagine!
Anyhow, I digress.
