I did read a very good book on dreams, and scanned through a few questionable books as well. The iconic nature of dreams makes their psychological interpretation rather less than difficult. So it was with yours. The fact that you win in your dreams is a testament to a basically healthy individual psychologically.

Just by way of comparison, for the longest time I had dreams of driving a car that would end up going backwards into a ditch and getting stuck, or slide on ice, or get stuck in snow drifts. Cars are emblematic of the dreamer's personality. Those old dreams of mine were easily interpretable as me being stuck in life. Lately my dreams have had me driving over the speed limit.

Now how long can it be before that rolls into waking hours and you wind up reassigning yourself to Mordor? At least you're not stuck anymore, right?

I hate to think how this dream could be interpreted.

That is hilarious! And easy to interpret. You're spending so much time doing stuff you have fun with that you're afraid your real life challenges are getting short shrift; and a sufficiently authoritative individual (me! ) is enough to get the message across emphatically. Under the tables and food being tossed are clear images of shame. Namely, feeling ashamed. At least you didn't find yourself standing before a whole crowd unclothed! Well?

I'd say that's a pretty good analysis.

Let's leave that dream for Gandalf the Grey.
