I Felt Weird When I Woke Up
Jodie Asks:
I was sitting at a picnic table with my mother who passed away 2 years ago. At the table were other people who have had people pass in their lives. I was chatting with my mom. She kept saying to just move on, don’t try to put a price on everything or try to sell things…(conversation is kind of blurry).
This dream was odd to me because I felt weird when I woke up. I didn’t just wake up, it was dark. Then a kind of tingle came over my body and I opened my eyes. What would you make of this?
Lucid’s Thoughts:
Sitting at a picnic table depicts the possibility of an ESP dream because you were outdoors. Being around those who have also had people pass, shows that you have the support or you are surrounded by people who are in the same boat as you so to speak. A gathering around a table usually means a meeting, communication, food for thought, discussion etc.
Your mother telling you that you need to stop putting a price on everything may be a literal message. If you are the type of person that feels you need payment, or some kind of gratitude for everything you do, then maybe you need to reconsider how you handle your affairs. Some things in life do not have a price tag, or can not be sold. Maybe this is what mom was trying to tell you. If you want to feel this out, take an inventory of your life events or how you may be dealing with your current situations. I can not say for sure, you are going to have to look into this a bit more. You know yourself better than me
This of course is only one view of what it may all mean.
The tingling feeling you were feeling was most likely your spirit entering back into your body. It is not uncommon to have this experience after being in the presence of a loved one. Hope this helps a little.

I do think that it is best if we try and understand our dreams. Sometimes I wake up in the morning not remembering the dream but knowing I had one. It is the most annoying feeling in the world because I like to know what goes on in my dream world.

Beth- I always feel like I am missing out on something if I don’t remember what I had dreamt. Lately it seems I am doing alot of missing out lol. I have just been so tired that when my head hits the pillow, it hits really hard.

That dreams is strange. Why would your mother tell you not to put a price on things? Is that all you remember of the conversation? I know dreams can be unclear at times which gets fustrating.

Lucid,
Your interpetation of this dream makes sense. All to often people try to make everything tangible, it is very likely that the Mother was teaching her daughter a lesson to love and give without worring about getting something in return.

Jane – Hopefully Jodie does comment. It is always encouraged! As far as your dream, take your time, I don’t plan on going anywhere anytime too soon. Maybe we could all help you with it!
Thanks for your compliment, I appreciate it!
Be well!

Hi Ami- I too get fustrated if my dreams get fuzzy. I love when they are crisp and clear and have lucidity! I look forward to my dreams every night!
I don’t know if Jodie remembered anymore of the convo, that is all she wrote in and I can not speak for her. Dreams could have so many meanings. I guess we will see
Have a good night! Good to hear from you!

Mark- How often do we hear the phrase “What have you done for me lately?” Your right, I think learning to give without expecting back is more pure & from the heart; not just something we do for self gratification.

Hi All,
Thanks for all the insight. Lucid yes you hit it on the head…its not that I put a “price” on things its more the gratitude I expect for things I do. I cannot remember the exact words my mother said but they were to the affect of dont try to sell things. Also my father was just saying the other day not to feel incompetent. Alot of this I must say stems from my job and not being compensated properly. I think my mom and dad are trying to say is believe in myself no matter what anyone else says or does. Again thanks everyone for all your thoughts they have all really been great analogies.
