The Dream Thread

[Odinn]

A Question: what does it mean a bus, seeing yourself in a bus, most of the time as a passenger? Since I am paying atention to my oniric journeys, I've realized it's one of the recurrent objects I use.

I check Dream Moods website for symbolisms, where it's interpreted as "going along with the crowd. You are lacking originality and control over where your life is taking". Any other meanings anyone?

Vehicles that you are in are typically 'vehicles of consciousness'. Car is ego. Bus is public. With the limited info, I'd agree superficially, that a bus passenger does mean lack of involvement over where your life is headed due to going along with the crowd. So where was the bus headed?

So, vehicles of consciousness; didn't think of it, thanks :-)

As for where the bus heads to, there's no destination. It's the trip itself, more than the destination, I think. It seems to be a platform from where I watch (landscapes, towns, road episodes, etc.), through the windows and the windshield. Sometimes I can identify with the driver; sometimes I experience the speed of the vehicle; sometimes I talk with / hear from other passenger.
