Hi Anonymous\u2014 \u00a0<\/p>\n
Is it possible your recent disappointment with your new lover has caused you to think back to the \u201cgood old days\u201d\u2014when you were married with your ex-husband? If so, this is a classic \u201cwarning dream!\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n
Your husband\u2019s car is a symbol of himself. The fact that it \u201ctakes off\u201d suddenly, and without a driver, represents the compulsive side of his personality. (Compulsive behaviors are performed repeatedly, without control or awareness.) The brakes, also, do not work on this car. This familiar dream metaphor shows us your husband is \u201cunable to stop himself.\u201d Sure enough, the car soon crashes\u2014another sign your ex-husband\u2019s life is out of control. Finally, the seating arrangement in the dream\u2014you are a passenger in his \u201cold car\u201d\u2014lets us know that your ex-husband still is able to influence you. He is able to \u201ccontrol the direction\u201d you are headed. \u00a0<\/p>\n
It is significant that you are aware, during the car crash portion of the dream, that you are not really in any danger. This suggests you understand the dream is a metaphor (you are not really going to get hurt), and it hints that an element of routine, or \u201cbusiness as usual,\u201d attends this dramatic car crash. When your ex arrives to retrieve you after the accident, he\u2019s driving the same old car! It\u2019s as if the accident never happened\u2014and he still wants you to get in! \u00a0<\/p>\n
If you are feeling let down by your recent whirlwind romance, Anonymous, don\u2019t let it blow you off course! You have worked hard to leave a difficult and abusive relationship behind, and you deserve every praise for setting yourself free. Rather than romanticize the past, why don\u2019t you reaffirm your commitment to yourself, and to people, relationships and values you want in your life? It is clear from this dream that your ex-husband\u2019s car will not take you where you need to go! \u00a0<\/p>\n
Dear Dream Doctor\u2014 \u00a0<\/p>\n
Your analysis of my dream is phenomenal! It is exactly what is going on with me, and I really needed to hear your words because it has set me back on the right path. \u00a0<\/p>\n
What you will find interesting is that my ex-husband called my mother yesterday, gave her his telephone number, and asked her to ask me to call him. (He doesn\u2019t know where I am.) This happened two days after my dream, so the dream really was a warning. \u00a0<\/p>\n
I am disappointed about the \u201ccooling down\u201d of my recent romance. However, your words have reconfirmed in my mind that either this romance will heat up again, or another will come my way. It is nice to have a relationship but it has to be the right relationship; otherwise we are better off alone. \u00a0<\/p>\n
