Dianne had a chat with Prince Philip in a recent dream – as you do – but didn’t quite understand his royal advice, so she phoned me on Kathy Bedford’s Statewide Drive show on Radio ABC Victoria this week to ask for an interpretation.
Dianne dreamed she had joined a tour group headed for London, but the group was fragmenting, and there were only two people left. Soon, however, she was on a train, London-bound, and who should be sitting across from her in the carriage but – you’ve got it – Prince Philip.
He showed her a picture frame and advised her that this was something she could do. There was more to the dream, but it ended with a question of having to pay $120 to get to London.
What does the dream mean?
The price of achieving the dream goal (London) was $120. With numbers in a dream, forget the zeros and the number you’re left with is often a clue. My feeling was that a goal Dianne had 12 years ago was fragmenting, leaving her wondering how she could possibly achieve it now.
Her dreaming mind suggested a solution: reframe. Look at what’s left (the fragments of the old goal) and change perspective. Instead of feeling fragmented and lost, build a new picture, perhaps one incorporating the fragments. Think ‘big picture’ instead of ‘fragments’.
Prince Philip, like all people in a dream, represents some part of the dreamer. I asked Dianne how she sees Prince Philip’s personality. “Inquisitive,” she said.
The train journey suggests Dianne may be ‘training’ or studying. Dreams love puns and word plays. Developing her inquisitive nature is enabling her to shift perspective and reframe her goals.
Of course there is far more to the interpretation than this, but for a quick overview – which is what interpreting dreams on radio is all about – Dianne confirmed that it related to what is going on in her life, and that it was insightful and helpful.
What can you take from Dianne’s dream? Some helpful dream interpretation tips? Which situation or goal in your life might be transformed by reframing the big picture?
