Making a Living near Danger

Date: 8/11/2018

I was house sitting for this older Caucasian man who I would watch his house while he was at work; some parts of the house was raggedy and I was there to help fix and restore the house. He offered me one of the rooms free in his house while I'm worked on his crib; When he worked he was pretty much gone throughout the day and come home at night. He had a large lake in his yard that I noticed had a lot of large alligators; as days passed by I was getting more work done on the house. I would also have help come over to work on the house; I also had a lot of family that came over to visit. Some of them would swim in the pool looking lake so I would have to tell them to get out because I seen alligators in there. My cousins ex wife in real life fell into this lake in the this dream; and, I noticed she didn't come back up. There were people near the pool; and, after noticing nobody else jumping in to save her; I ran and jumped into water and pulled her out. I was worried that since I waited on somebody to save her first that I waited too long; and, maybe now it is too late; and, that she's already dead from drowning; When I pulled her out my cousin Michelle decided to do CPR because she had the training. Nothing was happening after 4 attempts; so, I didn't give her mouth to mouth but I did push below the sternum; and, she finally coughed up water. For a moment I thought that was it; and, she was dead; but she lived. I done forgot about the alligators that's in the water; I was so anxious to save her from drowning that it didn't occur to me that I was risking getting eaten by alligators. It dawned on me afterwards on how worse the situation could have been; which, made me feel so thankful. Next thing you know somebody had a dog that we kept trying to keep away from the lake; we kept tying him up but he kept breaking loose. The dog thought we were just being mean and didn't want him to swim; he didn't realize we was just trying to protect him from alligators. I explained it to the dog; but, you know its a dog lol; he don't know what I'm saying. I gave the dog to somebody who promised to take care of the dog; and, keep him safe; it was a Caucasian man wearing a black round hat with shades and a brown trench coat. The next day I looked out of the window; and, noticed the man in his yard with the dog. He had a brown wooden fence surrounding his backyard; but, since the house I was staying in is a few stories high; I was able to see what was going on. I noticed he had the dog hanging from a rope upside down from a tree; and he took this giant chicken; and allowed the chicken to peck the dog in the throat until it was constantly stabbing the dogs throat. Blood was pouring from the dogs throat and flesh was also being torned. I felt bad because I felt like I failed the dog; all that work I did running back and forth after the dog; and, tying him up was in vain; because at the end I still didn't keep him safe. I was deceived thinking I was doing what's best for the dog; but, all I did was transferred him from one danger to another.

AI generated interpretation In this dream, you are house-sitting for an older Caucasian man and working on fixing and restoring his house. This could symbolize your role as a caretaker in your waking life, possibly taking care of responsibilities or trying to improve certain aspects of your life. The presence of the large lake with alligators represents danger and potential threats looming around you. It suggests that you are aware of potential risks or challenges in your environment. The fact that you warn your family members and try to keep them safe from the alligators indicates your protective nature and concern for the well-being of others. The incident where your cousin's ex-wife falls into the lake and you jump in to save her is significant. It highlights your willingness to take risks and face danger in order to help others. However, your hesitation before jumping in suggests some hesitation or doubt about your ability to make a difference or save someone in time. This could reflect a fear of not being able to meet the expectations or demands placed upon you. The unsuccessful attempt at CPR and the worry of her potentially being dead symbolize your fear of failure and the consequences that may come from it. This could be a reflection of the pressure you feel in your waking life to perform well and succeed in certain areas. It also suggests a sense of relief and gratitude when things turn out better than expected. Forgetting about the alligators and risking getting eaten represents a temporary oversight or neglect of the potential dangers that exist around you. It implies a tendency to focus on immediate concerns or tasks without considering the long-term consequences or risks involved. This may indicate a need to be more mindful and cautious in your actions and decision-making. The dog in the later part of the dream represents something or someone you are trying to protect or care for. The dog breaking loose despite your efforts could symbolize a situation or aspect of your life that you have difficulty controlling or managing. It may reflect a sense of frustration or helplessness when faced with unexpected challenges or setbacks. The man in the black hat and trench coat taking the dog and subjecting it to cruelty symbolizes a betrayal or deception. This could represent someone in your life who promises to support or protect you, but ultimately causes harm or disappointment. It may reflect a sense of being let down or deceived by others, leading to feelings of guilt or responsibility for their actions. Overall, this dream suggests that you are in a position of responsibility and caretaking in your waking life. You are aware of potential dangers or challenges around you and try to protect others from harm. However, there may be a fear of failure or the risk of overlooking potential risks. It is important to be cautious and mindful in your actions and to recognize when others may not have your best interests at heart.
