Cannot get off train I keep dreaming that I arrive at a station with a crowd of commuters. After a short wait, the train arrives and we all climb on board. I settle down for what seems to be a long journey. The train stops at several stations until the carriage I’m sitting in is almost empty. At this point, I suddenly realise that every station we visit is identical. The people I see waiting on the platform aren’t real but dummies – as are the few remaining passengers. In fact, I seem to be going round and round on what I can only describe as a life-size train set. I try to get off, but all the doors are sealed. In real life, I’m not a commuter, so why should I have this dream? And how can I get off this train? Lesley, Peterborough Dear Lesley, Trains convey large numbers of people along fixed tracks. Once you’re on a train, you have only a limited number of predetermined choices about where you can get on or off. Your dream therefore seems to suggest that in your journey through life, you are moving forward along the same lines as everyone else, rather than feeling free to select the options that suit you best as an individual. It’s also possible that you feel as though you’re being taken for a ride in some way. All you tell me about yourself is that you’ve felt vaguely dissatisfied for some time but can’t work out why. Is it perhaps because you’re being carried along by rigid routines, or inflexible attitudes that you need to question? It’s interesting that, as the dream progresses, the train starts to resemble a life-size toy. I suspect this is a warning from your subconscious mind about the dangers of going through life in a passive, automatic way. The longer you continue to do so, the less real and therefore less meaningful the journey becomes - and the harder it is to change. Without knowing more about your circumstances, it’s difficult for me to suggest a specific way to disembark. But you could start by asking yourself what it is about your situation that makes you feel like a helpless dummy being taken round and round in circles. Once you’ve identified the factor that’s triggering this response, you may find you can resolve it by trying to apply a different train of thought.  (Sun Taurus, Moon Scorpio)
