Dream
Hi, I have a recurring theme running through dream. I never find what I’m looking for; it can be a street, a car park, and even a railway station. I can be running through a town looking for these – and never find them.

Meaning
When we dream of running, we are thinking about how we can best use our individual talent to make progress in our lives. In waking life, running is the fastest, most self sufficient and personal mode of progression. Running in your dreams reflects your independent nature and shows that you have the energy and drive to make great progress in your waking life. However, never being able to find what you are looking for indicates shows that you are still unsure of your chosen goals in life.

The street, the car park and the railway station signify that you are searching for ways to make progress in your professional life. These places are all starting points for bigger journeys and you are considering the best ways to use your energies to realise your professional goals. Although you enjoy being active and busy in your work, you often feel that all this activity is not giving you the satisfaction you need.

What you are really looking for is your true vocation in life where you can do really meaningful work. You have the confidence and talent to do this, so stop running for a little while, stand back and decide what will be your dream job.

Dream
I have been having a recurring dream that I am on holiday and I can see a tsunami coming. Each time I have to run from the beach and up a hill. I have always had a family member with me. In one of the dreams the wave caught me but I was alive and rolling in the wave and I could see brightly coloured fish. I have no idea what this could mean.

Meaning
When we dream of a tsunami, we are often anxious about being overwhelmed by a huge wave of emotion that is sweeping through us in waking life. Being on holiday in your dream suggests that you are currently doing something a bit different in your waking life that is helping you to feel happy and relaxed. However, you are concerned that there is a big change on the horizon that will really stir up your feelings and emotions.

This major change may involve your job, a family member or a romantic relationship and although you are trying to resist this change, you know deep down that it is inevitable. The hill that you run up in your dream represents the major effort that you are making in waking life to avoid this disruption by trying to distance yourself from your emotions. The family member indicates that this upheaval involves something or someone who is close to your heart.

The fish in your dream are reflections of bright ideas and inspirational moments that will guide you through this period of change. Being alive and rolling shows that you will be able to ride this wave of change and emerge from it feeling that you are much stronger and wiser person.
