In my dream last night I had a baby. I had a baby.... Its a weird thought but it felt very natural in my dream. I was struggling to get her out of a car seat because it had like a thousand latches, literally it had like 8 or something but then I turned on the light and it was easy all of a sudden. I held her for a minute, kissed her head and told her she was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. I remember wondering where I was going to fit a bassinet for her to sleep in. I asked my mom "how do I know if she is too hot or too cold?" And then I wished I would have read that book "What to expect when you are expecting" and thought, maybe my sister, Carly still has hers that I can borrow...
And that was it.
Pretty normal... right? My dreams aren't ever too crazy, just pieces of my life with a little twist. According to a few websites babies signify:
innocence, warmth and new life
something in your own inner nature that is pure, vulnerable, and uncorrupted
the need for self-nurturing and taking care of my own inner child
new beginning or phase in your life.
I like to think this is true... Maybe I am approaching a new idea of nurturing myself and my inner child. I have never in my life put a conscious effort in taking care of myself spiritually and emotionally like I have been recently. And considering the main story line of my dream maybe I am still just feeling my way around and learning how to take care of myself. It is so typical of me to think I should read a book to figure out how to do that... hehe. I am new at this self love and self nurturing thing, but I feel hopeful about the peace and inner harmony that I want to have.
