Table - suggests assimilation, or "coming together" of varying parts of your personality. It could be that you are working on becoming aware of your own multi-dimensional nature and are attempting to become a more harmonious individual. Also, the table represents nourishment, friendship, unity, and refers to your social and family connections. It could represent emotionally charged events, such as a family dinner, contractual negotiations, or pleasant/unpleasant meetings.
People - Usually our dreams are filled with people. We dream about our families, our friends, our neighbors, and our classmates. We dream about strangers, colleges, famous people, teachers, and, at times, our supposed enemies. Each dream is very special and carries its own unique message. When interpreting this dream with people in it, consider all of the details and the feelings in the dream. If the person is known to you, or reminds you of someone you know, think about your relationship with him ,or her, and the issues that the dream has brought up. Strangers - Sometimes, strangers in your dreams represent different, known and unknown, aspects of yourself. They are extensions and projections of your own subconscious, and personality. Many people believe that their dreams can predict the future. When they have negative or frightening dreams, they become anxious about the future. Alternatively, when their dreams are a form of wish-fulfillment, the dreamers become very excited and are hopeful that the dream will come true. Most dreams are not prophetic but are psychological, or spiritual, in nature. Their primary function may be to help us live better in the present, rather than the future. We learn about ourselves through others, and probably our most valuable possessions are our relationships.
If these people are totally unrecognizable (they don't remind you of anyone you know), then they would represent different aspects of yourself. Human beings, male and female alike, are curious, questioning, and have a need for information, and spiritual expansion. But... we all have masculine and feminine aspects, or sides to our subconscious, and psyche. The masculine aspects would be the part of ourselves that we view as brave, strong, stubborness, authorative, logical...etc. The feminine aspects would be the part of ourselves that we view as emotional, nurturing, tender, yielding, sensitive...etc. When we dream, all the different parts of our 'inner selves' interact, and 'come alive', as though they were different people.
Dark hair - Hair represents thoughts, self-image, and sttitudes. Dark hair symbolizes the subconscious area of thoughts and attitudes, also 'dark' thoughts or attitudes. Dark eyes - eyes symbolize how we see the world, and ourselves. They represent the soul, or psyche in it's many moods. Dark eyes suggests dark moods, or desperation.
'Young' and attractive - Without knowing how you relate to people of this age, and basing that the strangers may be different aspects of yourself, it suggests that although you feel you have a good self-image, you still feel naive, or inexperienced, is some area of your waking life.
Cards and poker chips: Playing cards represent opportunity, personal skill, sociability, competition, a gamble, and a sense of fate. The different suits mean different things as well. Hearts represent emotions and relationships. Diamonds symbolize wealth/riches(not necessarily monetary, could also be wealthy or rich in health, friends, experiences, etc), and intellect. Spades depicts the body, movement, and sensuality. Clubs represent instintive drives such as fear, sex, and hunger. Gambling, and games, represents stances used to meet life, not taking life seriously(making a game of it), competitiveness, sense of winning or losing, teamwork, and life skills. Gambling itself, also symbolizes desperate feelings, or taking risks (with your life, or areas within your life)....health, family, work, money(finances)...or whatever is indicated in the dream.
Bedroom - Often the most private room, the hidden/private self, intimacy, sexuality, sleep, rest, the subconscious and feelings of wanting to retreat.
Bed - where we sleep, rest, restore our minds and bodies and engage in sexual pleasure. The bed could also symbolize the bridge between the conscious and the unconscious (i.e.our daily lives and the great unknown, our spirit and our psychological undercurrent). The quality and the cleanliness of the bed in our dreams, may say something about the way we feel about ourselves and our relationships. In reality we "make our own bed," so the dream may reflect that bed and remind us that we have to either change it or lie in it.
Nudity - suggests exposure, and the vulnerability that lies just below the surface of our more confident selves. This vulnerability comes from the self that we hide from others. It could be a compensation to what is going on in daily life. It suggests you are very guarded and unwilling to let people see the "real" you or you may be feeling embarrassment as a result of a mistake(verbal or otherwise), or an emotional reaction. With this type of dream,your subconscious might be encouraging you to become more open with your feelings and more accessible emotionally. It may signify getting beyond outward appearances to what you really are: the 'naked truth' about yourself. It may therefore be accompanied by an anxious feeling of being 'exposed' - that is, vulnerable. Alternately, nudity may express a subconscious longing for childhood innocence and freedom from artificial inhibitions. Additionally, if you see yourself naked in inappropriate places, your rebellious side may be coming through and with it some fear that people may not accept you for what you really are.
Male 1 stating that "Group sex isn't his thing" suggests that a male(logical or stubborn) side of your 'self' isn't too comfortable with public displays of emotion, or is a a bit stoic. Some part of you doesn't like to follow the crowd, and likes to make your own decisions, or likes to be by yourself. Male 2 dropping his shoulders then agreeing suggests resignation, but that male(brave or daring) side of your 'self', could have possibly been coerced into going along with everyone else. Some part of you finds excitement in possible 'taboo' types of situations. or is an 'out there' type of person who thrives on excitement. The woman watching it all silently, and takes on the appearances of the other men, suggests that a feminine(yielding) part of your 'self', is a sort of chameleon...thatis, you're willing to do whatever the 'men' think is best, or that you just like to be with other people, and be along for the ride. And your own 'recognizable' self watching the scene unfold is representitive of natural curiosity.
"I gave you a pass, now you owe me. What do I get in return?" suggests you're making a 'deal' with yourself. That you're conflicted about something. (An example would be: 'I shouldn't eat this cake, but I'll do extra crunches tomorrow'...or 'I do this one last thing, then I'll take a break'.... or an extreme, 'God if you just let me win the lottery, I'll start going to church'...etc) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Are you having questions about yourself and your spiritualty...(who am I, what do I want out of life, etc)? Have you been feeling private, or reclusive, lately? Do your friends, or family, ask you out for some fun....but you really don't want to go? Have you been feeling secluded, distant, and possibly moody or depressed? Are you feeling vulnerable, or intruded upon? Did you say something recently, that you wish you hadn't? Did you make a decision about something, and are now questioning it? Have you been offered an opportunity of sorts, and you're feeling that to take it (or not) would be a 'gamble'....financially, emotionally, or physically? Have you begun a new relationship, or found renewal within a current one, but your afraid of investing too much of your emotions for fear of being hurt?
I hope this helps you out. Best wishes!
