Two recent dreams of mine: I'm at the ex-wife's place (never been there in real life, have no idea what it's like), OM is there (he lives with her), he's looking not in great shape, not the most attractive guy. There's this wall, turns out it's not a wall, but a large hanging tapestry, hanging as if on a clothesline. On its other side is a street, and the street features a rather nice fountain in the middle of it, sort of like a cement fountain you'd see in a village square in Europe.
Next dream: I see the ex rising out of a chair, her appearance shows that she's obviously pregnant (she's 44, never been pregnant before, and never looked to have children).
I've been keeping a check to see what happens in real life after having these dreams, and some things come similarly close, some not. When I started posting after having these dreams start up back in mid-October through December, the interpretations were mostly about things changing, her relationship with the OM changing, transitions in my life. Well, my life has changed certainly with new doors opening for me since. As far as the ex goes, starting in mid-January, she started really opening up to me and telling me things like she only remembers the good times with me now as the pain has dissipated, she has seen changes in me that have her feeling like she doesn't know who I am anymore, that I'm a great guy, she misses me. As of the last week, this has stepped up some, we've now started having phone conversations about what went wrong between us, she told me that it wasn't that the OM is her great love but that he provided a comfort to her that she was seeking. We seem to be bonding a bit more as friends.
So, now I'm curious as to the possible meanings of these recent last two dreams.
Today allow and let the Holy Spirit heal your broken heart and crushed spirit. Allow the Holy Spirit to remove the spirit of heaviness, despair, depression or oppression. Your Lord can remove all your pain, any unforgiveness, bitterness and even anger. Allow the greatest Counselor to speak to you privately and remove all your hurts and pain. Let Him give you a crown of beauty, the oil of gladness and a garment of praise. Let the Lord put on you His robe of righteousness and as you would cover your child in bed, allow your Lord to cover you with all His unfailing love to remove all your hurts and pain. He died for you and loves you so very much and He has never left your side.

The dream book is half way done. I would have finished it already but I've been bogged down. I am considering selling it as an e-book to start with to see if it sells.
Thanks for asking, though, you've given me the motivation to get it done! I will post a message on here when it's ready.
Tapestry is a sign of luxourious living to come, either your way or hers - more affluent circumstances, unless the picture was worn or ugly in some way, in which case that is the reverse.
Fountain is very good luck, symbolising a happy life, unless there was no water coming out of it, in which case it symbolises a transition point in your life, moving from one phase to the next.
The pregnancy dream could mean just that, pregnancy. I dreamt my friend was pregnant recently and 3 weeks later I found out she was. So it can be prophetic. But it is also symbolic of changes and transformations in your XW. Like a cattapillar changing into a butterfly, your XW is changing in some way. It could also mean that she will 'give birth' to a new project, new idea, new phase of life, that she is pregnant with possibility, and not just literally a baby.
Also, she may be feeling that she's getting older and her biological clock is ticking. Some women change their minds about no children at this age. My friend who is pregnant is 42. OR you may be subconsciously wishing you'd had a child with her.
While staying at the Pirate Hostel in St Augustine on Fri, I slept in a lower bunk with ~ 12 other guys. I dreampt that I was a pirate and I was sleeping in a galley with a group of snoring, farting pirates.
One of my frequent dreams is that I am driving over a bridge and when I get to the top there is a portion missing on the way down. I always make it to the end safely but there is a few moments of freefalling almost as if I am on a rollercoaster.
The second one I had was that of my H either leaving me or dying and I used to wake up in a panic and out of breath. Of course H would be there to reassure me he was still there and not going anywhere. I had this dream sporadically for about two yrs then all the sudden it just stopped. H gave me the speech in Jan 06. Does this mean dreams come true?
Bridges with portions missing are obstacle dreams. It's some sort of challenge you have to overcome to get through to the other side. Bridges are traditionally transition symbols, going from one part of your life to the next, and the trouble you have crossing is your difficulty with it.
Dreams CAN predict spouses leaving, but it also may have been that there was some type of problem with your marriage, even very minor, that was causing you some unconscious insecurities about it.
Some dreams can be taken as warnings, to give the dreamer the opportunity to confront and fix whatever is the problem, but all too often people don't pay much notice to their dreams.
There are 3 different types of dream: Processing dreams which is just your mind processing all the things you have done in the day, release dreams which are to release unconscious fears or recover from traumas, and prophetic dreams which are the dreams that come true and show future.
Many people have prophetic dreams and I myself have had them since the age of 13 on a regular basis and I interpret dreams for friends and family and on here, because of this.
I went to this Indian restaurant with Andy and the kids and we were half way through the meal when we realised the kids were missing so I was running around like a maniac, shouting for my babies!
Then I saw them standing in a corner so I offered them this HUGE cup of my breast milk (LOL) which DD1 took and drank, but the others wouldn't.
Then I was on this farm and I was breeding these hedgehogs and there were these 2 hedgehogs getting down to business (LOL).
Then I saw Andy and he said 'I can't stop thinking about you.'
My interpretation: Restaurants are very good luck if you eat with others, so that's great. Losing the kids is me grieving over the custody situation and being afraid of losing them again.
Full cup is good luck, love, happiness, and breast milk is even luckier. Fulfilment, joy etc. It is also me trying to mother my children and be connected to them.
Breeding hedgehogs - both the hedgehogs represent me and Andy. I am afraid of being prickled (hurt) by him.
Andy saying he thinks about me all the time - that will happen, he'll say it in another few weeks or less. He always does say the things he says in my dreams.
Looking back now I can see my dreams showed my insecurity with my abiity to conceive a child. We (actually I) struggled with infertility for two years and then finally got pregnant via IUI only to be told at seven weeks (my 35th bday) there was no heartbeat and I went into the hospital the next day. We tried again in Nov but were unsuccessful.
I have dreamt lately of a reconcilitation but chalk it up to wishful thinking. H does tell me he misses his bestfriend and hopes that one day we can be friends again but he is adamant that he wants a D but says he is in no rush.
We frequently spoke about my dreams but he said he never remembered his??? Is that possible? Can someone sleep so hard that they can't remember?

Sure! I'm a very sound sleeper, and almost never remember dreams unless something happens to wake me from sleep (or unless I'm pregnant). And what few dreams I do remember, are usually not very vivid - kind of black and white, no smells or tastes or sounds, usually (except when I'm pregnant - then they're technicolor!).
Did have one vivid moment in a dream this morning though (and no, I'm NOT pregnant!). Was dreaming about S19 taking his final exams tomorrow (he's a college freshman) and somehow had the sensation of the taste of delicous fresh ripe peaches. No idea what the connection was, but I awoke with a sense that he's gonna do just fine on his exams
