dream of a snake

[davey72]

I dreamt last night that i was semi paralysed, and i was wondering if it was the start of something for life. I blew my nose, and in the kleenex was a snake. Another part was about some people having holes in their brains, although more psycologically than physical. This guy even gave directions, so if you were thinking in yer head, you go right for so mny feet, turn 180 degrees,etc. But you can repair this hole. It was like a commercial and showed a woman being normal, and then while she is in this hole. She acted drunk. I kind of take this to mean that i am aware of the predators mind, but need to be more vigilant in getting rid of it. Or something to that affect?


Mod's note: Edited to change the word drram for dream in the title.

At first I didn't get your post, but now I see it. I think your dream could be a warning to yourself. Makes sense to you?

Re: drram of a snake

Paralysis/semi-paralysis is also indicative of shutdown mode, the next step your biological functions activate when fight/flight mode has failed to achieve a certain outcome (successful escape, fighting off an attacker, etc), and causes you to get 'stuck' in a particular behavioral trait that is basically a reliving of the trauma incurred. Interestingly enough, the part of your brain that's responsible for this is your 'reptilian' brain which is your oldest and most archaic nervous system that deals mainly with sensations.

Remembering how you felt or certain sensations you had during this paralysis could be an exploratory exercise you can try the next time something like this happens.

Not sure what the other symbolisms of the dream mean, but maybe some sort of trauma is slowly coming to the surface? Also, the holes in the brain and the hole the woman falls into that causes her to act drunk maybe something to look more into. Here's what _www.dreammoods.com has to say about holes

Hole

To see a hole in the ground denotes hidden aspects of your activities. On the other hand, it may mean that you are feeling hollow or empty inside. This dream may be an awakening for you to get out and expose yourself to new interests and activities. Alternatively, the dream may be a pun on "wholeness' or completeness.

To dream that you fall into a hole represents a pitfall in some waking situation. You feel you are stuck. Perhaps, you have dug yourself into a hole and cannot get out of it.

To dream that there is a hole in your clothing indicates that there are some flaws in your thinking or thought process. You may need to undergo an image makeover.

I went through a period earlier this year of dreaming about snakes and crocodiles, and it was during a time when I felt emotionally unable to cope. Not to say that is what's happening with you, but just remember not to push it with Baha, and try to stay away from inflammatory foods as much as possible! They seem to bring on some of these hypnagogic states/paralysis states, possibly even before a person is ready to deal with it due to inflammation messing with the signals that run from your gut to your brain.

I think that both of these replies make sense to me. Thanks for the input.
