DREAM EXAMPLE OF A TROUBLED MARRIAGE DREAM

A married woman dreams she’s nude standing in the den of an old house. On the walls of the den are large pictures that cover most of the walls. On the floor, the woman sees a clean white sheepskin rug. She walks over; picking up the sheepskin places it over her bare breast and shoulders wrapping her upper body.

The woman slowly looks around the room; her eyes focus on a large door in the corner of the room. Curiosity aroused by the unknown just beyond the door, the woman walks over to the door, frozen, pauses and stands in front of the door feeling puzzled. Getting her confidence back, she reaches down, grabs hold of the doorknob still not altogether understanding the emotions she’s feeling. The woman slowly opens the door. Inside the door, she sees steps leading down into a small dark room.

In the room, the woman sees the hazy shadow of a man smoking a cigarette; he is dressed in dark clothing standing in a superior body language pose in the far corner. He motions her to come down the steps toward him. Her eyes focus on the man; the woman is hesitant. She lets go her grip on the sheepskin and it falls to the floor revealing her nakedness. She slowly starts down the steps. She wakes up just before she reaches the bottom step of the wood floor in the dark room.
