I keep having dreams of various disasters involving fire and explosions, where in every situaton I'm right in the middle of the fire/explosion, but I escape unharmed or wth only slight injury...the most recent dream was the other night, I was on top of the Eiffel Tower, right in the middle of a blazing inferno, But I felt no heat, breathed no smoke, was never burned....I jumped from the top of the tower, landed several hundred feet from the base....and was unscarred, except for a couple of small scratches on my hand. Wind was somewhat knocked out of me when I landed, but it wasn't painful. In all these dreams, other people are getting hurt or dying left and right...and I'm walking away pretty much untouched.

I thouht at first maybe I was being reminded of the protection I have in the element of fire...though the more I tink of it, the more I have to wonder why I would need a reminder...it's one of the last things I'd ever forget. All can think of besides that is that something huge is looming on the horizon, something incredibly traumatic, possibly disastrous, that I am going to walk awaky from.

I'm not sure I want to know. But if it is to happen, I wo't have much choice.

There's only one way to find out.

To dream of fire is to dream of transition. There is a risky decision ahead of you, and something inside of you forsee's your ability to take a chance and go for it. You may be unsure, but deep down, you will be confident. It is interesting that you mention your hand-
Hands represent the communication and ways we are connected with the world. An injured hand is to suffer an attack on ones' ego. To see blood on your hand is an acknowledgement that you feel guilt for something.

next time please sign your comment if you're not an LJ user....
i have not suffered an injury to my ego, nor am i guilty of anything. (BTW there was no blood in the dream, just surface scastches)

In theory, I know what these dreams mean, was not looking for an interpretation. The unknown bit that I as referring to was specifics. I don't go by dream dictionaries, they are at best a jumping-off point to begin intertpretation, and my dreams generally mean something completely different from anyhting I've ever seen in books.
