Creepy woman takes away my friend

Date: 9/27/2016

I was in this big modern looking school and in the centre was a water area with beams going across. the perimeter lined up with balconies on the above levels so you could look down and see the water. I remember I kept idling across these beams and got told off by a teacher so I felt embarrassed and stood in a corner watching the water. Then it got weird, my friend Ellie was there and this creepy woman who wasn't human loomed over her. Ellie was going on about how she met her and the woman is really nice. She looked Japanese with traditional clothing and started approaching me and studying me. My brother was there and also felt uncomfortable. I don't know why but this woman seems sly. At one point she slid through all our legs with a snake like elongated body. She had cool scaly-feeling skin. I can't remember much but she wanted to take us away and I was like no way. Ellie looked at me with really sad eyes and said that she'd go (like a sacrifice). I almost was prepared to take her place but she left with the woman and the door closed behind her and I woke up.

AI generated interpretation This dream seems to tap into feelings of vulnerability, fear, loyalty, and sacrifice. The setting of a modern school with water features and balconies may symbolize a place of learning and growth, while the water itself can represent emotional depths or unconscious thoughts. The presence of the creepy woman who takes away your friend Ellie may symbolize a fear of losing someone close to you or being betrayed by someone you trust. The fact that Ellie initially sees the woman as nice, but you and your brother feel uncomfortable around her, suggests a conflict between your instincts and your desire to trust others. The woman's sly behavior, snake-like body, and cool, scaly skin could represent deception, danger, or unfamiliarity. The idea of her wanting to take you away may reflect a fear of being lured into a situation that is not in your best interest. The moment where Ellie looks at you with sad eyes and offers herself as a sacrifice could indicate feelings of guilt, responsibility, or a sense of duty to protect those you care about. Your willingness to almost take her place suggests a willingness to sacrifice your own well-being for the sake of others. Overall, this dream may be highlighting your fears of losing control, being deceived, or sacrificing your own needs for the sake of others. It could be beneficial to reflect on any current relationships or situations in your life where you feel vulnerable or unsure, and explore ways to assert your boundaries and protect yourself while still supporting those around you.
