I need some help in figuring out what this place I keep going to in my dream signifies. I couldn't find anything related to it in the dream dictionary Milfoil posted and I'm no dream expert, so please don't bash my head in for sounding lame!
Several times in the past week, I keep starting out in this little boutique or shop that feels more like a cavernous tunnel. Not in a bad or ominous way, but I mean like this: It has no windows, so the only light going in is from the open doorway at the front end, and it's always sunny out in that door, so there's plenty of light and shadows. If you ever went inside a small place or your house with dark walls and the only light is coming from the window or door, you should picture it easily. The store is nothing more than a trinket shop, full of jewelry and coins and little "useless" items that I might enjoy looking at in the mall or in a vendor. Most of it I can't even see clearly, but what really makes this look like a cave is how the counters stick out and up and the strings of necklaces (or whatever they are, all I can really tell are that they're long and shiny silver strings) hang down just like those stalagmites and stalactites in natural caves. And there's really no color inside, just silver and grey of various shades.
Each time this was in my dream, I always started off in this place, then wandered through it and out either doorway to different areas and settings, though the whole entire "world" (through the sunny front end) was set up like a nice colorful little Italian villa street, lined with fancy little shops and restaurants (I only went into a couple of those though). I live in America, so I don't have this sort of thing here, and definitely have not been to Italy, but that's what pops into my mind when I picture the setting.
As for the back end, it's usually a dark courtyard or it splits off into a sort of alleyway, then I somehow end up (how I get there is all a blur) in this dusty, cramped, beige shop that has tarot cards in a box on the back room's shelf. Seems to be the only reason I'm at that place, for those decks. And it was night, or sunset, each time I went out the back end of the cave to this beige little shop.
That's about it, I don't really DO anything in those dreams, nor do any events happen as well. I'm just walking around looking at places each time I go there, and I really don't know what it all means.
My only guess for the cave shop is that, since I start off the dreams there, it's a sort of mental "base" for me, and the tunnel-like structure comes from my strong connections to the fox and snake, both of which use burrows as their home or nesting area. Outside of that, I'm lost. Perhaps I just drank too much coke before bedtime those nights.
Any and all ideas and thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
