Have had quite a few interesting and symbolic dreams. Working my way through interpretations though some just tend to evoke a 'Lulwut' reaction when recalling, quite literally.
Today I had 2 main dreams. In the first a key scene was seeing a massive oversized lizard like creature on an island eat the native inhabitants/Humans (Pulled it towards them with it's tongue like a frog on an insect). I recall we set the creature loose to bait it or something and then we manage to trap/kill it, saving the population. There's a lot missing but this is what I manage to get from my notes (Was abruptly woken up this morning, not the best condition for retaining dreams).
In the second I find myself with another individual coming out of a forest (There was lots of mud). Suddenly I see snakes pretty much everywhere. I mind my step and manage to find my way out. My mother is wondering where the heck I am when I catch up with her in what looked like a playground (Yeah...).
I realised what all the recent wedding dreams were about. It seems I was working out 'future scenes' and probabilities before they materialise in 3D.
I read those dreams differently. In the first the girl symbolises your feminine aspect, the animus, or the unconscious. To work with it effectively you need to 'lighten up' and perhaps not take things so seriously. It could also relate to the need for experiencing emotions and feelings in a deeper manner, but in order to do this to not intellectualise everything and to simply go with it and enjoy.
The second is clearer and seems to relate to your feelings. The water relates to the collective unconscious and the people symbolising the many in your life who simply either do not wish to delve, or have not gone as far as you have in exploring. It could alternately simply represent how you feel about your current state when doing this. Probing your emotions at the time of the scene is useful for determining an 'interpretation'. Perhaps it's symbolic of how you feel about the path of others and your own.
Ymmv, take what you will ;-).

I woke up with an inspiration that my desire for a dynamic life full of constant activity comes from a belief that being more active and engaged in life through endless activities makes you more attractive. Of course, this is no longer relevant as I am now married... Yet this desire still remains not as a resistance but as a permanent part of my personality and mode of living.
Another dream was of me walking down a tiny peninsula in a beautiful clear-water bay surrounded by tall cliffs, following hundreds of people. Suddenly, I ran past all of the people in the crowd really quickly and I was at the very tip of the peninsula. I was alone looking back at all of the people behind me that refused to run as far as I have. I was surrounded by water that was all for my use but there was nobody to share it with. I was happy but called to walk back to converse with the others.
