What you think of the Franz Kafka-like dream I had last night?

Asked by gondwanalon (22862points) October 11th, 2021

Dream 10–10-2021

I was camping out on a big cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The waves were crashing.

Donald Trump was sitting on a big pile of human bones near where I was camping. He was injured and asked me to help him and his bodyguard who was also injured. I said no and I went to sleep in my tent and slept until about 2 am when I got up to take a leak.

As I walked past Trump I suddenly grabbed him and threw him off the cliff (like it was a relax involuntary action). I was shocked at how light he was. Then I grabbed Trump’s body guard and threw him off the cliff also. Then I threw all the human bones off the cliff. Just after throwing everything off the cliff, a woman jogger came by and said hi and then she started jogging down a path leading to the bottom of the cliff. I was suddenly aware that I just killed 2 people and the jogger will soon discover what I had done. I was thinking that I’m going to jail for a long time.

When the jogger returned, she was all excited. She said that there are human bones at the base of this cliff and that we should call the police. I said go ahead. She didn’t mention the bodies of the two men that I threw off the cliff.

When the police got there it was daylight and high tide. No dead bodies and no bones could be found. When the tide went back out there was still no dead bodies or bones. Apparently the bodies and human bones got washed out to sea.

I got away with murder and destroying evidence but I did wrong and felt guilty for the bad that I had done. Then I thought, “Was it only a dream?” “Or did I really do it?”.

Perhaps I’m feeling guilty for voting for Trump (2016 and 2020).

That’s your guilt manifesting itself in the form of wanting to do something different.

It might be a sign to stop eating of what ever you ate last night. That or repressed rage?

Not all dreams are cut and dry rather some are symbolic in meaning.
Here is my deduction/opinion.
Example: 1.
“I was camping out on a big cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The waves were crashing”

—- Could mean: Your accessing your “higher” conscious ,trying to understand the “waves” of emotions that come seeping /crashing in.

2.“Donald Trump was sitting on a big pile of human bones near where I was camping. He was injured and asked me to help him and his bodyguard who was also injured. I said no and I went to sleep in my tent and slept until about 2 am when I got up to take a leak.”

Could mean:
Donald Trump sits on top of a heap of people in high places , that he destroyed, yet he feels hurt?
His bodyguard suffers along with him for supporting him.

You slept on it and then at 2 am you purged yourself of the garbage that you no longer believe.
Example 3.
“As I walked past Trump I suddenly grabbed him and threw him off the cliff (like it was a relax involuntary action). I was shocked at how light he was.”

Could mean:
You walked “past” him meaning you overtook his supposed power as he was voted out, realizing that he had NO power as in truth he was just a weak imposter posing as a great leader. and all his supporters in high places when downhill as well.

Jogger represents a healthy women who follows with him ( wife?) but climbs back up realizing that authorites ( police) should be involved.
” I just killed 2 people”
Could mean:
You just killed that idea of following two unsavory people( in your subconscious)

“When the police go there it was high tide”
Could mean: It was high time that authorities were involved.

“No dead bodies and no bones could be found. When the tide went back out there was still no dead bodies or bones. Apparently the bodies and human bones got washed out to sea.”

Could mean: That all evidence and wrongdoing is washed aside and as deep as the sea it is never to be found in other words it is usleess to look as scoundrels will cover there tracks.

“I got away with murder and destroying evidence but I did wrong and felt guilty for the bad that I had done”

Could mean that your conscience is telling you that you got away from Donald Trump and most likely feel bad for been duped,but you know know and avoided disaster.( Murder)

Just my take on it..take with a grain of salt.
Fun to try and dechiper.

@RedDeerGuy1 HA! I’m absolutely the exact opposite of a narcissist. I’m the silent worker bee who sits undetected in the background waiting to be given a big pile of work to do.

@Inspired_2write Thanks a lot for your detailed analysis.

Missed the opportunity to write Kafkaesque… ;-)

Here’s my take on your dream. It is similar to Inspired 2write. The high cliff above the Pacific Ocean and the waves crashing below represent the freshness and majesty of the world. Trump by contrast represents your political thoughts and he is injured because of his defeat at the last election and his asking for help is him appealing for your vote.

You are done with Trump and when you found him hanging around at 2.00am you threw him over the edge to get rid of him once and for all. I’m not sure what the bones represent, or the bodyguard but the jogger is your conscience troubling you because you feel disloyal. However, in the dream everything is washed away by the sea and you don’t need to worry.
