The dream this morning takes place somewhere in the American southwest. It looks like New Mexico or Arizona. It is on a remote section of desert highway. I can see tall saguaro cacti, just off the road at a sharp turn, there he is, it's Harry Potter, seated at the wheel of a 1965 Ford Mustang. Harry is waiting to ambush me on this lonely stretch of highway. He wants to exact some kind of revenge on me for some perceived injustice. I don't know why he hates me so much or what I did to him, but he is seething in anger.
Potter knows I will be coming this way, he has been methodically plotting and patiently waiting to run my vehicle off the road, and kill me. He knows what I am driving is a blue 2016 Chevy Camaro. He is sweating in that Mustang in the summer heat. The engine is running. He will pounce the minute I am in sight.
Suddenly, I come roaring by in my Camaro and Potter slams the Mustang into gear and hits the gas and pursues me in a cloud of dust! He wants to kill me so bad he can taste it. I see him in my rear view mirror and wake up.
Potter is a punk ass kid. He is not going to catch me in that old Mustang. It is no match for the new Camaro. Why does he want to kill me? I have no idea. Is he going to use his magic on me? This dream is a weird one. Potter reminds me of my young boss with the new job. The boss is a 20-something and has high self esteem and is a little arrogant, and demanding. I give him due respect. He is the boss after all, still I confess, I find his condescending attitude a little too much to tolerate at times.
A drag race dream suggests I am in a situation I really don't want to be in and I am feeling the pressure to prove myself. I am feeling very competitive and I'm in a dangerous position. Perhaps I need to slow down and reconsider my well being. Can I be reconciled with Potter/boss? Convince him not to kill me? If he uses that magic crap on me I could be a goner. I am at his mercy. I could win this race but what will it cost me?
The boss wants me to take on a bunch of tasks tonight and I am concerned it will be a bit overwhelming and I could get myself into trouble again. Is he looking to sabotage me? Is he just giving me more responsibility to see what I can handle and just how good at this job I can be? I don't know. Either way the pressure to perform well is giving me a serious migraine and I don't like it.
Life is one dream you can't escape by waking up from it. "Waking up" in the real world is just a bigger dose of reality and more responsibility. Maybe the dream is telling me I a need a newer faster vehicle to avoid getting caught by life's murderer of dreams? A fast car can get you killed, or a speeding ticket, or a clean getaway. Of course, consequences come with each of these examples.
The whole environment in this dream is very hostile to my well being. There is desert, heat, fast cars on a dangerous stretch of road, cactus and worst of all some thug sorcerer trying to kill me! What the hell?! The only thing in my favour is the Camaro. Thank God for that! I need an edge in this scenario. I suppose it might be my life experience that is giving me an edge in the waking world. I'll take what I can get and work with what I got.
I was never a fan of Harry Potter. Potter, you need to chill baby! Why you hate so much? What did I do to you? Geesh! I'm going to eat some breakfast now. Once I get some coffee in me maybe we can work this out. Murder is quite extreme and uncalled for blood. Relax!
