Out
of control vehicle
I have a recurring dream in which I am in a vehicle, often a car, but
more
recently a caravan. It is completely out of control. I know I am in
great
danger but seem powerless.
Bill, Merton
Dear Bill,
To dream about travelling in a vehicle out of control implies deep
anxiety about losing direction. You also write that ten years ago,
following a nervous breakdown, you decided to leave your family home
and live alone. You add that in recent conversations with your wife
you have learned that you were often unkind to her although you did
not realise this. Cars in dreams tend to symbolise how you are moving
through life. Yours has a caravan attached. Caravans contain a large
amount of 'family baggage'. This dream seems to suggest unresolved
family issues. Were you afraid of being overwhelmed if you let them
get too close? You mention that as a child, you hated your stepmother.
Later, you came to realise what a lovely person she was. Having experienced
how a relationship with a woman can be healed, you could still develop
a friendship with your wife. Your dream is urging you to take responsibility
for steering your life in a positive direction.

(Sun Taurus, Moon Scorpio)
