I dreamed that I was looking for a place to park. In the past, I always parked at a lot near the intersection. Then someone told me that if I drove in a little further, there was a parking lot at a bank—it had better spots and was also cheaper.
At first, I didn’t believe it. But after crossing the street and standing under an arcade, I looked over and realized, “It’s true! There really is a parking lot at the bank!”
Previously, I had seen cars lining up and driving into the basement, but I never noticed they were actually going there to park. Instead, I had been squeezing into the more crowded lot near the intersection. I thought to myself, “I should park here in the future—it's not only better but also cheaper.”
夢見我要停車，過去我都是在路口前面的停車場停車。後來有人跟我說，其實我再開進去一點，就有一個銀行的停車場，那裡的位置更好，也更便宜。
我本來還不相信。我過了馬路，站在騎樓那裡看，發現「真的耶！銀行這邊真的有一個停車場！」
之前我看到有車子在排隊，一部一部開進地下室，但沒有注意到，原來他們是要去停車，然後我還去擠那個前面的停車場。我心想：那我以後也要過來停，更何況它還比較好又更便宜。

In my dream, I remembered something from my childhood—we used to cut calendar paper into long triangular strips, roll them up into beads, and string them into necklaces.
In the dream, I was rolling beads out of calendar paper. As I was doing it, I thought, “Wow! It’s been so long since I last did this. I had completely forgotten about this childhood craft.”
I recall that before this part of the dream, there was something related to death, but I can’t remember what it was anymore.
夢裡想起小時候，我們會用月曆紙，裁成長條三角形，然後捲起來，做珠子來串成鍊子。
在夢裡，我正在用月曆紙捲成珠子。我心裡還在想「哇！好久沒有做這個了。我都忘記小時候有這種手工藝了。」
我記得在這個夢之前，好像有什麼事跟死亡有關，可是我現在已經記不得了。
這個夢境由兩個截然不同但又相互關聯的部分組成：
停車場－視角的轉變
夢境的這一部分象徵著實現更好的選擇，並質疑舊的習慣或信仰。「停車場」通常代表決定、穩定，和找到自己在生活中的位置。你總是把車停在十字路口附近的同一個地方，沒有意識到稍遠一點的地方還有更好、更便宜的選擇。
看不見的停車場，表明存在機會或解決方案，但由於習慣或意識有限，而被忽視。
有人指出這一點，代表了外部指導，可能是其他人的建議或新發現的意識。
過馬路並驗證它，反映了一種內在的轉變——從懷疑轉向認可。
注意到地下行駛的汽車隊列，可能象徵著潛意識的隱藏方面（因為地下室通常代表榮格心理學中的無意識）。
這可能反映了你當前的生活轉變，他們開始看到一直存在，但以前未被注意到的新可能性。它顯示出心態的轉變——從熟悉但有限的視角，轉向更開放和有益的視角。
童年紙珠－與過去重新聯繫
夢境的第二部分圍繞著童年的手藝——用日曆紙捲成珠子。這象徵著懷舊、被遺忘的創造力，和時間的流逝（日曆是時間的直接象徵）。
重新發現這門手藝，意味著與過去有意義的事情重新建立聯繫，可能是失去的熱情、技能或思維方式。
捲珠子的行為，可能象徵重建、拼湊記憶，或將舊的經驗轉化為新的事物。
與死亡的關聯（即使被遺忘），可能表明這種重新發現與處理損失或變化有關。夢中的死亡，通常象徵著轉變、結束和新的開始。
整體解讀
這個夢境表示你正處於過渡時期。第一部分暗示實現更好的人生道路，而第二部分則標誌著以可能帶來治癒或靈感的方式，與過去重新建立聯繫。
這兩部分之間的連結可能表明，為了前進（在生活中找到一個更好的「停泊處」），你也必須承認、處理，或重新發現過去的一些東西——也許是一種舊的熱情，一個被遺忘的教訓，甚至是自己被遺忘的一部分。
這個夢境可以鼓勵你接受新的觀點，同時也從過去的經驗中汲取力量，從而走向更平衡和充實的前進道路。
This dream consists of two distinct but interconnected segments:
1. The Parking Lot – A Shift in Perspective
This part of the dream symbolizes realizing a better alternative and questioning old habits or beliefs. Parking lots often represent decisions, stability, and finding one's place in life. The dreamer had always parked in the same spot near the intersection, not realizing a better, cheaper option existed just a little further in.
The unseen parking lot suggests that opportunities or solutions are available, but they have been overlooked due to habit or limited awareness.
Someone pointing it out represents external guidance, possibly advice from others or a newfound awareness.
Crossing the street and verifying it reflects an internal shift—moving from skepticism to recognition.
Noticing the line of cars going underground could symbolize hidden aspects of the subconscious (since basements often represent the unconscious in Jungian psychology).
This could reflect the dreamer’s current life transition, where they are beginning to see new possibilities that were always there but previously unnoticed. It suggests a shift in mindset—moving from a familiar but limiting perspective to a more open and beneficial one.
2. Childhood Paper Beads – Reconnecting with the Past
The second part of the dream revolves around a childhood craft—rolling beads from calendar paper. This symbolizes nostalgia, forgotten creativity, and the passage of time (calendars being a direct symbol of time).
Rediscovering the craft suggests a reconnection with something meaningful from the past, possibly a lost passion, skill, or way of thinking.
The act of rolling beads may symbolize rebuilding, piecing together memories, or transforming old experiences into something new.
The connection to death (even if forgotten) could suggest that this rediscovery is linked to processing loss or change. Death in dreams often symbolizes transformation, endings, and new beginnings.
Overall Interpretation
This dream suggests that the dreamer is in a period of transition. The first part hints at realizing better paths in life, while the second part signals a reconnection with the past in a way that may bring healing or inspiration.
The link between these two parts might indicate that in order to move forward (finding a better place to "park" in life), the dreamer must also acknowledge, process, or rediscover something from the past—perhaps an old passion, a forgotten lesson, or even a part of themselves that was left behind.
This dream could be encouraging the dreamer to embrace new perspectives while also drawing strength from past experiences, leading to a more balanced and fulfilling path forward.
