Sharks and Monkeys
We jump from the plane, 3 of us, and proceed to immediately pull our parachutes, there’s not much time for freefall. I was the last to jump so after my parachute is out and working, I guide it over to the guy that jumped before me, and then we head towards the guy that jumped first. There’s some conversation, actually, me yelling at the guys about how we’re over water and that it’s shallow (only a couple inches deep) and that we need to come in like we’re landing on land and we need to grab our parachutes quickly because we don’t want them soaked. They just look at me and roll their eyes as if they needed to be told any of this. We all have a successful landing on our feet, grab our parachutes, and walk towards the center of the island.
As we’re walking, I notice that there are 2 sharks swimming near to the coast. I point them out to the guys “hey guys, look, sharks” and we all stop in our tracks, turn our heads, and squint as though it will help us see better. One of the guys says, “is that two sharks, or….nah it couldn’t be” the other guy finishes his thought, “a shark with two dorsal fins” we start to walk towards the shark. me “those dorsal fins are awfully close together for it to be two sharks” as we get closer, we’re no longer wondering about the sharks but why the water is so deep over here but so shallow where we landed. In our pondering of the water, we lose track of the shark(s).
We turn around and continue to head towards the center of the island. We eventually come to the parachute lockers, so we hang our parachutes knowing full well that by not packing them now we were going to have to come back and pack them later. We then walk towards the main building. As we’re doing so, we pass several pools, each pool has a shark in it. One of the guys goes up to the edge of a pool to get a close look at the shark, he mutters something about mutations. Him getting close to the edge was a big mistake as the shark jumped out and grabbed him by the torso snapping him in two. There was a magnificent display of blood being spurted everywhere. We were in range to get splashed with it too. It was terrifying.
We now knew that we had to avoid the pools. As we approached the building, the guy and I split paths. I went into the building to the psyche ward where I was put in a room with a man who was so not with it, my goal was to try talking to him. Mr. Frisbe was his name. The look in his eyes, he wasn’t with us. Doctors kept coming in and out, doing blood tests, adjusting the stuff running through his IV. One doctor took me aside and said that it was imperative that I get him to speak.
The doctors then left, the man’s eyes cleared up and he said, very clearly, “I need to get out of here, will you help me, you just have to think about me not being in here, please, help me”
Next thing I know, I’m staring out the window, watching monkey’s being unloaded from a truck, and an attempt being made at trying to get fences up to contain the monkeys as they dance around, and there, I see, Mr. Frisbe, in his gown, his ass showing, as he runs away. Interesting I think to myself as doctors run into the room screaming explicatives as to where Mr. Frisbe went. All I could ask was “what’s up with the monkeys”
In the first part of the dream, you are in an airplane…suggesting a time of feeling uplifted or really soaring to heights, when you decide it’s time to “get back down to earth” or ground yourself and have a reality check. In other words, life has been good lately, soaring to new heights but you are aware it’s time to get serious about life. You are in companionship of two men, who in real life may be a bit shallow as suggested by landing with them in shallow water or “shallow emotions”. In real life you interactions with men in your life may make you realize that they might resist having any deep emotional interactions, nor will they like it if you suggest how things should be done.
As things progress, or in the near future, you come in contact or become aware of people who are very threatening, devious and sneaky. You’re not even sure how many there are or who they are, but could come across a time of sneak attacks (sharks ….devious people) This is a caution to be on guard with information or knowledge about your life or work or some area of your life.
Now after becoming aware of just how tricky staying away from the wrong people can be. You begin to recognize the people to be cautious of everywhere….in each group that you know there’s at least one person with less than stellar ethics. You witness someone destroyed by someone and that may be in any phase of life, my guess would be work related as that’s where most attacks take place by devious people who seemed otherwise normal.
As you continue to learn more about people around you, you become more cautious (avoid the pools…or places where people gather and share their emotions). It may be a warning to not lay all your thoughts and emotions out for people, you think you can trust, to see. You are put in a room with a crazy guy ( or so he seems)…”he’s not with us”….meaning perhaps he is not cooperating in some way and your higher ups or bosses perhaps ask you to seek getting him on the same page or on the team. No one understands why he isn’t communicating. I believe in this part of the dream you might be asked by higher ups to try and coerce people to join the company, team or game plan, but it may be that not everyone is suited or compatible and need to find their own path.
The window again is a place for vision, outlook, and how you are seeing the situation in life. Monkey’s being unloaded from a truck and trying to contain them. Monkey’s are silly, can act silly, they mimic and distract. Fences going up to contain them….It may be in the near future that people come on to the scene, maybe work scene, that do not really belong there. RAther than do their own creative work, they copy, steal and in general make fools of themselves. You recognize these new people for who they are and put up your defenses to keep them away from you. “Mr. Frisbe”..suggests a personality or person, who thinks it’s all a game, he exits the situation after having shown himself to be an ass. “What’s up with the monkeys?” suggests in your thinking you don’t understand why you have to tolerate stupid behavior from people.
ok….long dream that seems to cover different areas of life, but it’s my thinking that the first part of the dream is about your social life and being disappointed that men you meet feel shallow with no deep thinking. You may meet men that at first you are elated (airplane) but eventually realize you have to save yourself from the shallowness of the potential relationship and come back to earth.
The second part of the dream seems to relate more to the work arena of life, as you are placed with and witness possible shark attacks and devious people. It’s a caution not to give up your trust to easily or mix business with pleasure, losing your guard, allowing sneaky people to get too close. It’s also possible that in the work arena you see how easily people can be destroyed by joining forces with the wrong people.
The last part of the dream seems to be about encountering people that don’t really have the goods and are part of the workforce you deal with that act silly and do not have their own creative ideas. You tolerate them from a distant (put up the fence or defense) but do not interact.
………
Lots of good information for you in this dream. I threw out as much information as I could. I may have related the information to the wrong area of your life…you decide if it fits or not. If you get an “aha” or an unsettling feeling, then think about it. Hopefully, my thoughts will trigger the right answers.
