If I could add my two cents as my own dreams/visions have always given me accurate information and I find them exactly similar to the situation they point at in real life always. We just have to put that dream in a certain similar situation in our real life and figure out what they are trying to tell us.
Now I think you are the one who has picked up on something dirty/unhealthy in this scene. Your brother, someone you consider your brother or fellow traveller in this kind of set up is not aware of it at all. The woman mentions the pig head, which means she is paying attention but is silent about it for some reason and she mentions it to you so she knows that you are aware of it.
Yes, my mother mentions the pig head. She was my ally growing up but when I left home, she kind of took a turn. When we're together, she sides with me (against my father, let's say) but then once my dad has filled her head with his way of seeing things, she suddenly adopts his way of thinking, too. It's as if she has no mind of her own. Essentially, she's been silenced over the years. I refuse to let that happen to me. I think I equate remaining quiet with being voiceless. There are words stuck in my throat that I want to get out and when I'm around them, that's what it feels like. It feels unnatural. But then I remember, I can write about this all in my blog and I feel alleviated. I don't want to scream to be heard. There's a way to be heard without having to say a word...and this has been a work in progress. I believe my mother is aware of this dynamic but I also sense she's helpless to really change things.
There is a dirtiness around a situation that needs attention. She wants you to pay attention because she mentioned it to you! Also I wonder how can a pig head roll off the table all by itself?
Interesting. I thought the pig head had fallen because of someone else's carelessness. I thought that maybe someone had bumped into the table. Wow, that's me rationalizing behavior in the dream! Which is exactly what I do in my waking life. I rationalize their behaviour so that I don't feel the blow of their actions too strongly!! Did you read my feedback to zayats? My nickname growing up was piglet...But there is something else that dawned on me as I was writing this...
When I call my mother, I can sense she doesn't want to talk, like it's an inopportune time. But if my brother had been the one to call her, she would have dropped everything for him. That's how I feel. He's got kids. I don't. He walked the line and I did things a little differently. When I'm around them, I don't feel good enough and yet, I don't want to be them.
If I were to ever 'come back' again, I'd want to be me and nobody else.
.. Someone might have played a dirty trick there which is not visible to naked eye perhaps? And someone else picked it up for you. But do you see them washing it for you? Someone else might have a role in this..Who was someone else? I think the brother is ready to enjoy whatever is being served on the table, there is certainly a dirtiness going on in this specific set up, you have noticed it already and the lady mentions it even though you never shared your concern with her. I think the pig head was the focus of this dream/vision. Pay close attention to the pig head as the lady mentions. Pigs are known to live in dirt and take it with them wherever they go. Pay attention to it and may be look for the cause of this issue. I hope it gives you some information that is helpful!
Yes, the pig head is definitely the focus of the dream. The first thing I did after the dream was look up the symbolism for pig. Well, it can be a sign of good luck and fertility. It can symbolize a generous and peace-loving person, someone who is genuine and sincere. All good things, right? Yet, there's this 'dirty' aspect associated with the pig. We refer to people who are chauvinists and misogynists as 'pigs'. But, what made the pig dirty in my dream wasn't the pig itself. It was the fact that it had fallen on the dirty ground and no one washed it...Which means, to me, that no one cared enough to clean it because in their mind, it wasn't important enough to be cleaned. They didn't see the value of that animal/me (?)
Also it's about food! Something you are being fed is dirty/unhealthy/need to be discarded as it can affect your health and wellbeing. The head was too big for the table, you are being served more than you need at this time and whatever is being served is dirty! The pig head has one eye and one ear missing, which means you are being fed with distorted information and that some of the facts are missing. Something that you hear and see in this set up is missing vital information(ear and eye play vital role as your sensory organs). So pay attention to what you are being fed at this time...! This is very straightforward dream/vision in my opinion!
Yes, I can see this, too. Interestingly, I am cleansing right now - no dairy, no sugar, no meat, etc. - and I think this process is stirring up some mental and emotional stuff, which is good. I'm being very careful about what I put in my mouth - in the way of food - but not always in the way of information! So, thank you for that. Makes sense. I like what you say here about missing information and to be aware of this...I'll keep it in mind.
Thank you very much for your help, pumpkins. It's been very insightful.
