Hi Bets and Cathy..yes Bets, my dreams like to pun
Cathys dream:I dreamt that I was driving my car
____
tons of us drive a car in dreams. was thinking if we were in another location or time period we'd dream about riding on a camel
the car can represent your body. I'm not so sure this is symbol of a real child. especially since it got flat like a cartoon.
if you are shopping in a dream, it is like seeking ideas to buy into. but while you are the seeker, I think you are warning yourself to observe first the small items (child) right in front of your wheel or it could be a warning to slow down and smell the roses, make sure you know how to take care of mechanical things in real time like the brakes before going shopping in the great mall of life. its probably a prioritize dream. I don't know why you mention 6 inches, but the 6" can also be 6 days, the 6th day of the week, 6 oclock news? for 6 years you've been trapped in a shopping mall
(joke)
whatever u ran over is really a small item.. so maybe your brakes are going to be a small item to maintain? I see, you did realize you were dreaming when the kid became a stick..good! lucidity here, means lucidity there...hey! I just made that up!
it looks like it was warning to get your brakes checked. did you say your brakes did fail? nice to have warning dreams to avoid..well..you know...I donno Cathy, 6" kids that turn into popsickle sticks, may have to get you some help..
very good, now I have to go tell my daughter about her brakes need work too!
