Cows and the fam

Date: 12/18/2018

I was walking with my family through this giant farm, herding some cows along with our group. My parents and grandparents were there, as well as my brother and a young child who I don’t think was related to us, but I’d like adopted her as my own and considered her my responsibility. It started getting dark so we tried to go faster, but some of the cows didn’t want to cooperate. The guy who had given us the cows earlier had told us that we absolutely couldn’t lose any of them, and basically told us we’d be better off losing the kid than losing a cow. He was rather intimidating and always had a shotgun. Anyway, a couple of the cows started wandering away and we could not manage to get them to follow without losing a ton of time and risk being stuck out there in the middle of the night. We could see the farmhouse just up ahead, so I ordered everyone to forget about the cow and just get inside where it was warm and safe. I knew we’d be in trouble for losing a cow, but I just wanted my kid to be safe and I thought maybe we’d be able to hide it or something. We got to the farmhouse and no one else was there yet so my brother, my dad, and my grandpa decided to go back out to try to find the missing cows. They were gone all night and in the morning the farm owners quickly found out that we’d lost two of the cows because their workers had reported seeing them wandering around the farm and messing with the sheep and goat herds and trying to blend in with the horses. There was like this whole meeting of shareholders or whatever and their all gathered around these TVs showing different parts of the farm and talking in hushed tones, very serious. I wanted to go in the room to see if I could spot my dad, brother, or grandpa since we hadn’t heard from them at all. One lady got angry and told me to get out. Another lady calmed her down and said “it’s okay, they’re Monarch’s” (as in that was our last name alparently) which meant we were related to the people who owned the farm and thus had as much rights as anyone in the room. I watched the TVs and could see the stray cows, but no sign of my other family members. I rejoined my mom and my grandma and discussed. The guys hadn’t answered any of our texts, nothing. We decide to attempt the “find my iPhone” on my dad, except it apparently has this feature where it mirrors their phone on yours, so we could look through his photos and texts and such. There were photos of the three of them in town at a thrift store, so we at least knew they were alive, but we couldn’t understand why they would just leave and not tell us. We started hatching a plan of how we’d sneak out to go find them but I woke up before we decided on anything.

AI generated interpretation The dream could be interpreted as a representation of the feeling of responsibility and familial loyalty. You feel responsible to protect and care for the young child that you adopted, and this responsibility is so great that you are willing to risk the potential consequences of not being able to retrieve the missing cows. The fact that the farm owners recognize your familial connection suggests that your family is respected and valued, and that you have the strength of your family to support you in difficult situations. The use of technology to locate your family members also reflects the importance of modern communication in maintaining connections with the people we care about. Ultimately, the dream could be interpreted as a reflection of your commitment to your family and the lengths you are willing to go to for them.
