Interesting dream, Rumtiger. I have been considering doing dream interpretation for a fee recently. This one would have cost you a bundle - if you thought it applies. First of all you need to grasp that in a sense you - and all other humans and some of the gods - are 'schizophrenic'. You are not the only person in your mind. The human mind consists of three main and independent entities: the ego (the action hero), the superego (the ratio; in Dutch I would say 'verstand' - which is etymologically related to understanding / comprehension), and the id (the soul with its feelings and desires). There are some indications that there are one or more other entities, in particular the body or components of the body, but those do not apply here. In waking conditions these three entities merge together seemlessly. When sleeping they manifest as independent entities and converse in dream metaphors. So, now on to your dream. The bird watching is the introduction. It defines the parametres of the dream. This is a dream about love. The jungle is the landscape or room of your soul in your mind. (Perhaps the nick Rumtiger is derived from this?) Usually it is the action hero who is the protagonist of the dream. Your dream is interesting because here that aspect is more complicated. You, the action hero, are visiting in the realm of your soul - but you are older, more mature, studious, observant, passive, interested, contemplating. These are not action hero characteristics. These are ratio characteristics. This is why your dream is interesting to me: it is not the action hero who is the protagonist in your dream, but the action hero merged with your ratio. As for the tribal markings: they reflect that the protagonist in this dream - the merged identities of you the action hero and you the ratio - are members of the same tribe as your soul and its feelings. This is true: all three of you are partners and buddies and mates and best friends and lovers in the same mind, in the same tribe. Now your soul is in trouble. Something momentous is about to occur that requires the assistance of the combined action hero and most especially the ratio. The agitated male is your soul. The screaming women are feelings that interfere with your ratio. The men that evict them from the house presumably are minions of your ratio. The woman giving birth again symbolizes your soul. The child symbolizes a new, incipient feeling, that needs to be recognized by your ratio to live and to grow. At a guess, I would say that this new feeling is incipient love. If you neglect it, it will be still-born and die. But if you recognize its cause, if you recognize the woman that evokes this true love in you, and take action like the action hero that you also are, then your true love feeling will live and thrive. Am I right, or am I wrong? Thank you for allowing me to peek into and walk with you in your mind. It is a pleasant place.
