Dogfighting in the School Gym

Date: 11/6/2022

Myself and five others, two of which presumably friends, were dogfighting with little jets in my old middle school gym. It was my three friends and I against the other three. Their jets were the same as ours and had the same capabilities as my own team. We were out against each other, but I don’t know if this was supposed to be a friendly competition or a cutthroat one. Either way, we were on bad terms. I was up in the air in my small jet, pursuing the leader of the other team. The enemy was swooping around, going high speeds with me close on their tail. My teammates, which were likely two of my irl friends, were pursuing the other enemy players. My jaws were clenched together as I maneuvered through the air, trying to stay hot on the tail. Either the jets and our bodies were much smaller than they should, or the gym was much larger than it should. Whichever was the case, we took up very little space in the gym, just as if we were the size of remote-controlled helicopters. My missile attacks kept missing my target and I internally grumbled to myself. They were good, but I knew I could be better. I was getting angry that I couldn’t hit my target, but my attention changed when I was somehow plummeting down towards the floor. I grimaced as I tried to direct the jet to the purple, black, and white launch/landing pad smack dab in the middle of the room. If I could angle myself just right, the landing wouldn’t be too rough and I’d be back up in no time, ready to physically assault whoever knocked me awry (lol). My eyes widened as I approached the landing strip. I was afraid my efforts weren’t going to work, and I’d have a painful respawn. With my teeth still clenched, I landed without bombing the entire thing. The clicks of the strip hit my ears as it wound up to launch me back into the air, full speed ahead. I angrily pursued the squad leader again, still managing to miss them with every missile. My teammates were having better luck themselves, but they still hadn’t taken down any team members yet. We were basically just flying in circles and barely pulling up in time to avoid hitting walls. That was about it.

AI generated interpretation This dream may be reflecting an inner conflict you are feeling. It could be that you feel like you are trying to achieve something, but are having difficulty doing so. The enemy symbolizes the obstacles and fears you have in achieving your goal. The other team may represent other people or outside forces that are making it difficult for you to reach your goals. The dogfighting could suggest that you are feeling some degree of competition or hostility. The gym could represent the environment in which you are operating, and the launch/landing pad in the middle of it may symbolize a safe place to start or end something. The dream could be telling you to take a step back and reassess your situation, and that you need to take the time to strategize and develop a plan.
