I dreamed a lot about trains, and how the North Korean transportation was quickly developing to surpass the Japanese. I was riding on the Japanese trains at high speeds, at one point my cart got separated, and another train was approaching from behind. I was terrified it would hit us, but nothing happened. The journey continued. The train became a miniature, or rather, we passed through the home of a giant Japanese man who was very curious about us, but non-threatening (likely the first time I ever dreamed of a harmless giant). Eventually the train stopped at a station in a city whose name I cannot recall. I had to get a connecting train but I had some time to walk around the station. I needed to find the public restroom. I found one but the toilet was very strange and I had no idea how to use it. I also remember David Bowie being in my dream, but I don't remember the context.

AI generated interpretation This dream suggests a sense of uncertainty and unfamiliarity when it comes to navigating a new environment. The high-speed Japanese train symbolizes the potential for rapid development and progress, while the separation of the cart and the looming threat of a collision may indicate that the dreamer feels out of control and potentially overwhelmed by the situation. The giant Japanese man is likely a symbol of the dreamer's anxiety about the unknown, as the giant is curious but non-threatening. The strange and unfamiliar public restroom further emphasizes the dreamer's sense of feeling lost and overwhelmed in an unfamiliar setting. Finally, the presence of David Bowie symbolizes the dreamer's need for comfort and security, as Bowie's music is often associated with a sense of solace and peace.
