Photograph

Date: 9/26/2017

Analyzing black and white photo of a young, pretty, Native American woman. She looks to be 15 to 25 years old. Long, straight, dark hair, parted in the middle. Dressed in "traditional" clothes, standing in a stream. She carries a large baby/ small toddler on her left hip. She looks directly at the camera. The baby is crying with his/her head turned away. The look on the woman's face is difficult to decipher. Accusatory? Bemused? In shock? Where is this? What year is it? Is the photo of a real event? Or was it staged? All questions being asked in the dream. Like a professor asking me to look deeper. Focused in on the baby's white, buckled moccasin boots. What is their significance? Again, something asking me to decipher this in the dream itself. Like a dream about how to interpret symbolism.
