Two Moons?

[DavidHP]

Last night I had a very interesting dream, I was outside my home, looking up the night sky. The night was very clear with just one cloud in my view, the moon shone brightly . The strange part was that in my line of sight, behind the moon, I don't know how far behind. was another body.
This was bigger than the moon, spherical, kind of dark with areas darker than others as if the surface was made of different materials. The thought came to mind that it was land and water. This other " moon " was at least five times bigger than our regular moon.
There was no sense of fear or surprise in my dream.

I can only remark that I have also dreamed of 2 moons - in that dream it was the only sign that I was on an alien planet, both were beautiful & also not the same size. I have no idea what it could symbolise, unfortunately.

Hi DavidHP

Dream action is about the dynamics of your own life (hopes, fears, questions, conflicts, way out of difficulties, possibilities, etc.) The dream action may use images from experiences of the previous day or so before, as well as others. The dream symbols may be both literal and symbolic interpretations – be curious and naïve in your interpretation.

And, from a Fourth Way perspective,

… Basically, in the deepest (i.e. normal) sleep, there are no dreams. Most dreams are left over energy from one or several of the centers, and the dream content reflects this. Vaysse lists three normal kinds of dreams: associative (reactive/mechanical), compensatory (emotional), and symbolic (higher emotional). (Also telepathic, prophetic, etc.)

So … it's important to know if the dream is actually symbolic and not either of the former options. And even then, your higher self will speak in symbols specific for you, ...

To help you in your dream interpretation – of what is subjective, unique to you, and whether you recognize the images or not (and they are in you and pertain to you; they are aspects arising in your-self) - here are some questions to ask your-self. They may help, or not.

When you re-experience the experiences in the dream, do they remind you of anything in life?

The setting, what does it feel like there? Does it remind you of anything in current life, any situation in life?

What does the ‘’night sky’ mean to you? How does it ‘work’? What is it used for? (ask on the basis that I know nothing about it)

What is the ‘night sky’ like in your dream? How do you feel about it?

Does ‘night sky’ in your dream remind you of anything, any part of you, or anyone in your life? How?

Ask similar questions about ‘cloud’, ‘moon’, ‘another body (other moon)’, ‘surface made of different materials’, ‘land’ and ‘water’.

Imagery is often idiosyncratic yet culturally moulded, for example Victorian houses suggest attitudes held are Victorian, and might be those of the dreamer.

Water is about emotions and spirit of life

The action, events in the dream, what do they remind you of in your waking life?

Think about the dream as you go through the day, and test insights and ideas gained. Understand obvious metaphors. Keep using language and images of dream whenever possible. Interpretations may spring to light. String descriptions together to bridge dream experience to any situation in life. (Ref: adapted from Living Your Dreams by Gayle Delaney)

This may help, or not.
