I dreamed that I was working at a company and driving to work, circling around to look for a parking space. On the way, I noticed police officers stationed by the roadside, ready to catch any violations. The scene felt reminiscent of when I used to drive to work in the past.
I kept circling, thinking that finding a parking spot today would be tough. When I passed the company parking lot entrance, a young attendant asked me, "Aren't you parking today?" I replied, "Are there any spots available?" He checked his board and said there was a space at B5, spot number 8, and offered to guide me there.
I temporarily parked my car on B1 and went up to the first floor, intending to take the elevator down. I ran into the company’s young female secretary and told her I was heading to B5 to check out the parking spot. She looked uneasy, so I asked her what was wrong. She said, "Do you know the situation with that spot?" I said I didn’t, which was why I was going to take a look. She simply replied, "Then go see for yourself."
The attendant led me down to B5, where we encountered a rolling metal door. He pulled it open, and I stepped inside, only to be shocked—this basement was essentially a giant pile of sand, with people living there.
I saw beds scattered around and noticed young students and disabled individuals who seemed to have no place to stay, making this their home. However, the environment was terrible, with towering piles of sand everywhere.
I walked further to spot number 8 and thought to myself: if I wanted to park here, I’d have to drive past all those people, which would kick up sand and dust. These people were already living in hardship; the thought of adding to their misery made me feel awful.
I saw some people who were clearly disabled or ill, lying there unable to move. Just imagining driving through and spraying sand and dust all over them made my heart ache.
Then I noticed what seemed like disabled spirits or strange creatures. They had piled sand all over the parked cars, burying them completely.
I exclaimed, "How can anyone park here!" and left. I asked the attendant if there were other spots available. He checked his board and said he’d need to ask again. Another part-time staff member came to check with me, and I said, "These spots just won’t work!"
At the elevator, I saw a manager and his wife. They asked if I was here to check out the parking spot and explained that it was actually their spot. They asked if I wanted to rent it. I said, "This spot is impossible! How can anyone park here?"
The manager and his wife insisted, "It’s usable!" because they were eager to rent it out and make money.
I explained to them that even just parking would cover me in sand, making it impossible to go to work clean. After work, retrieving the car would mean finding it buried in sand dunes. Exhausted from a full day’s work, I’d still have to deal with the spirits or creatures. Even if I managed to get into the car, I’d be covered in sand, and the car’s interior would be full of it too. I told them, "This spot is absolutely unsuitable!"
The manager and his wife eventually admitted I had a point.
Still, I felt deeply saddened. Seeing an environment like this, where people actually lived, was heartbreaking. It was no place for anyone to stay. On top of that, some people only cared about making money, disregarding the fact that driving through would disturb the disabled individuals and the spirits resting there—it was just heartless.
The fact that even finding a parking spot for work could be so stressful made the whole dream deeply upsetting.
夢見我在一家公司上班,開車到公司,在路上繞,準備找停車位。我看到警察在路邊守著要抓違規。這場景有點像我以前開車上班的記憶。
我繼續繞,想說今天停車位不好找。經過公司停車場門口時,那個年輕管理員問我「今天不停嗎?」我反問「今天有位子嗎?」他看了一下板子,跟我說 B5 的 8 號位置有空位,他可以引導我去那個停車位。
我把車暫停在 B1,來到一樓,準備要坐電梯下去。碰到公司年輕女秘書,我跟她說我要到 B5 去看車位。她看起來面有難色,我問怎麼了,她說「姐姐,你知道那個位子的狀況嗎?」我說不知道所以才要去看看。她說「那你去看一下。」
管理員帶著我下去,來到 B5,有個鐵捲門。他往上拉,我進去看,天啊!那個地下室根本就是大沙堆,而且還有人住在那邊。
我看到那邊有一些床,有一些年輕學生和殘疾人士好像因為找不到地方住,就住在這裡。可是這裡到處都是很高的沙堆,根本是很差的居住環境。
我往後走,走到 8 號車位的位置。我心想我為了停個車,就要開車經過那些前面的人,那不是就會把沙子噴起來?那些人都已經夠慘了。
我看到一些真的就是那種殘疾生病、躺在那裡無法動彈的人。光想到要開車經過他們,然後沙子灰塵噴到他們身上,就讓我很難過。
甚至我還看到像是殘障的精靈鬼怪,牠們把停在那邊的車子堆滿了沙子,整個車子都被沙堆淹沒了。
我說「這怎麼停啊!」然後我就走出來。我問管理員還有別的位置嗎?他看了一下板子,說他要再去問。又有一個工讀生來問我,我說「這些位子不行啦!」
我來到電梯門口處,看到一個經理跟他的太太在那裡,問我是不是來看車位,原來這是他們的車位,問我要不要租。我說「這車位不行啦!要怎麼停?」
經理夫妻還說「這位子可以停啊!」因為他們想要趕快把車位租出去賺錢。
我跟他們解釋,光是停好車,經過沙堆,就已經全身是沙去上班了。下班後要取車,發現車子已經被埋在沙堆裡。明明滿身疲憊了,還要跟這些精靈鬼怪交手。好不容易進到車內,不僅全身是沙,車內也都是沙。工作累了一整天,下班還要去搞這些,我說「這車位真的根本不合適!」
經理夫妻覺得我的講法也對。其實我覺得好難過,看到這樣的環境,竟然還有人住在那裡,根本不適合人住。而且還有人只顧賺錢,也不管開車會經過那些殘障人士和精靈鬼怪休息睡眠的地方,實在沒良心。
想到上班要找個停車位也這麼勞心,整個就是一個讓我很難過的夢。
這個夢境富含象徵元素,反映了你潛意識的擔憂、價值觀和情緒狀態。以下是基於榮格心理學和象徵分析的解釋:
1. 停車場和尋找停車位
繞圈尋找停車位的行為,代表著對穩定、歸屬感或生活中,讓你感到安全和踏實的地方的尋求。在夢境中,停車通常象徵著在混亂或忙碌的生活中暫停或找到你的「位置」。很難找到停車位表明你感到不知所措,可能是因為挑戰或責任,以及努力在清醒的生活中,尋找清晰度或秩序。
2. 年輕的管理員和秘書
引導你的年輕管理員和警告你的秘書,可能代表了你心理的兩個面向:
管理員:你嘗試應對生活中的後勤挑戰時,實際、樂於助人的一面。
秘書:你的直覺或情感部分,感覺到更深層的東西出了問題,對潛在的困難提出了微妙的警告。
它們的存在,表明實用性和直覺之間的平衡,這兩者對於你的決策至關重要。
3. B5 和填滿沙子的地下室
地下室(B5)通常象徵著潛意識,其中存在著未解決的問題、隱藏的情緒和恐懼。堆積的沙子意味著不穩定、無常,以及被未解決的擔憂或外部壓力「埋葬」。
居住在那裡的人們,尤其是殘疾人士和年輕人,反映了你內心深處的同理心。它可能象徵著你自己或其他人中,你覺得被忽視、脆弱或需要支持的部分。惡劣的生活條件凸顯了內心對不公義或苦難的認同,可能反映了你觀察到或經歷過的社會問題或個人掙扎。
4. 靈魂與埋藏的汽車
埋在沙子裡的精靈和汽車,增添了超自然和超現實的元素,象徵著更深層的恐懼或阻礙你前進的障礙。汽車代表著生活的進步、方向和控制。它們的埋葬意味著障礙、未解決的創傷,或阻礙你前進能力的外在幹擾。
這些精靈可能代表揮之不去的內疚、遺憾或未被解決的情緒——這些力量使「掃清道路」變得困難。
5. 經理和他的妻子
這對夫婦堅持出租不合適的空間,反映了社會壓力或生活中的人們優先考慮利潤、外觀或便利性,而不是同情心和實用性。你拒絕他們的提議,表明你內心的道德指南針,和不願意為了短期利益而在價值觀上妥協。
6. 情感影響
你深深的悲傷和不公義的感覺,在整個夢境中產生共鳴。這表明你富有同情心、善解人意的一面,無論是在你的個人生活中,還是在你周圍的世界中,你都會因目睹或意識到他人的痛苦而感到負擔。它也凸顯了人們對將物質利益,置於人性和正派之上的系統或結構,可能感到的挫折感。
榮格概念
陰影:充滿沙子的地下室和精靈可能代表你的「陰影」——壓抑的恐懼、不安全感,或你自己需要承認和整合的未解決的方面。
個人化:這個夢境顯示你正處於自我發現的階段,透過潛意識的各個層面,來協調你的內在價值觀與外在挑戰。
阿尼瑪/阿尼姆斯:秘書和經理的妻子,可能體現了你心靈中女性的一面,引導和挑戰你面對情感真相。
個人反思
這個夢境可能會邀請你:
檢查生活中你感到「陷入困境」,或無法找到清晰前進道路的領域。
解決可能壓垮你的情緒負擔或罪惡感。
重新評估外部壓力(如財務或社會期望),與你的價值觀發生衝突的情況。
擁抱你的同理心,並將其轉化為符合你原則的建設性行動。
重點
這個夢境表達了你深刻的道德感、同理心,以及對不公義環境的挫敗感。它鼓勵自我反思,並找到平衡實用性與同情心的方法,同時解決可能阻礙你成長的內心「沙子」。
Ending 1: A Unified Solution
As you stand in the sand-filled basement, overwhelmed by the living conditions and the chaos, you decide to take action. You gather the residents—students, disabled individuals, and even the spirits—and propose a plan to clean up the space and turn it into a livable environment. Together, you organize the sand into manageable piles, uncover buried cars, and create makeshift homes. The spirits, moved by your compassion, reveal themselves as protectors of the space and promise to guard it. By the end, the basement is transformed into a place of hope and community, and you find a clear parking spot as a reward for your efforts.
Ending 2: Letting Go of the Parking Spot
After seeing the conditions in the basement, you feel a deep sadness but also clarity. You decide that this parking spot isn’t worth the stress and harm it causes. You walk away from the basement and tell the manager and his wife that you refuse to compromise your values. Instead, you find an alternative solution—carpooling with a colleague or taking public transportation. As you leave, you feel a sense of relief, knowing you’ve chosen peace over unnecessary struggle. The dream ends with you driving away from the chaotic scene, feeling lighter and more aligned with your principles.
Ending 3: The Spirits Offer Guidance
As you stand in disbelief at the sand-filled basement, the spirits approach you. Instead of being threatening, they speak kindly, explaining that they are trapped there, tied to the sadness and neglect of the place. They ask for your help to free them. You agree, and together, you perform a ritual to clear the space of its negative energy. As the sand begins to vanish, the spirits express their gratitude and disappear, leaving behind a clean, functional parking area. You wake up with a sense of accomplishment and empowerment, feeling like you’ve overcome a significant emotional burden.
Ending 4: Finding a Hidden Treasure
While exploring the chaotic basement, you notice something glimmering under the sand near spot 8. Digging deeper, you uncover a hidden chest containing an ancient artifact or treasure. The spirits, initially intimidating, reveal themselves as guardians of the treasure. They explain that only someone with a kind heart, like you, could discover it. The treasure symbolizes wisdom or a newfound understanding about life. You leave the dream feeling enriched and inspired by the experience, realizing that sometimes, challenges hide unexpected rewards.
Ending 5: Confronting the Manager’s Greed
After expressing your frustrations about the unsuitable parking spot, you decide to confront the manager and his wife. You explain how their actions—renting out such a terrible space—are harmful and inconsiderate. They initially dismiss your concerns, but your passionate argument makes them reflect. They promise to clean up the space and improve conditions for the residents. The dream ends with a sense of justice, as you’ve stood up for what’s right and inspired change in others.
Ending 6: A Transformational Elevator Ride
As you leave the basement, feeling disheartened, you step into the elevator. Instead of taking you back to the surface, the elevator begins to ascend higher and higher, eventually opening to a bright, serene space above the company. In this space, you see a clear parking lot, surrounded by greenery and peace. You realize this symbolizes finding clarity and a better solution in life. The dream ends with you parking your car in this ideal space, feeling calm and ready to take on new challenges.
This dream is rich with symbolic elements, reflecting your subconscious concerns, values, and emotional state. Here’s an interpretation based on Jungian psychology and symbolic analysis:
1. The Parking Lot and Searching for a Space
The act of circling to find a parking space represents a search for stability, belonging, or a place in life where you feel secure and grounded. Parking, in dreams, often symbolizes taking a pause or finding your "spot" in a chaotic or busy life. The difficulty in finding a spot suggests feelings of being overwhelmed, perhaps by challenges or responsibilities, and struggling to find clarity or order in your waking life.
2. The Young Attendant and Secretary
The young attendant who guides you and the secretary who warns you may represent two aspects of your psyche:
The Attendant: The practical, helpful side of you trying to navigate life’s logistical challenges.
The Secretary: The intuitive or emotional part of you that senses something deeper is amiss, offering subtle warnings about potential difficulties.
Their presence indicates a balance between practicality and intuition, both essential in your decision-making.
3. B5 and the Sand-Filled Basement
The basement (B5) often symbolizes the unconscious mind, where unresolved issues, hidden emotions, and fears reside. The sand piling up suggests instability, impermanence, and being "buried" by unresolved concerns or external pressures.
The presence of people living there, especially the disabled and young, reflects a deep empathy within you. It might symbolize parts of yourself or others you feel are neglected, vulnerable, or in need of support. The harsh living conditions highlight an inner awareness of injustice or hardship, possibly mirroring societal issues or personal struggles you’ve observed or experienced.
4. The Spirits and Buried Cars
The spirits and the cars buried in sand add a supernatural and surreal element, symbolizing deeper fears or barriers preventing you from moving forward. Cars represent progress, direction, and control in life. Their burial implies obstacles, unresolved trauma, or external interference that hinders your ability to advance.
The spirits might represent lingering guilt, regrets, or unaddressed emotions—forces that make it difficult to "clear the path" forward.
5. The Manager and His Wife
The couple's insistence on renting the unsuitable space reflects societal pressures or people in your life prioritizing profit, appearance, or convenience over compassion and practicality. Your rejection of their offer showcases your inner moral compass and unwillingness to compromise on values for short-term gains.
6. The Emotional Impact
Your deep sadness and sense of injustice resonate throughout the dream. This suggests a compassionate, empathetic side of you that feels burdened by witnessing or being aware of others' suffering, whether in your personal life or the world around you. It also highlights a possible frustration with systems or structures that prioritize material gain over humanity and decency.
Jungian Concepts
The Shadow: The sand-filled basement and the spirits may represent your shadow—repressed fears, insecurities, or unresolved aspects of yourself that need acknowledgment and integration.
Individuation: The dream suggests you are in a phase of self-discovery, working through layers of your unconscious to reconcile your inner values with external challenges.
Anima/Animus: The secretary and the manager’s wife may embody feminine aspects of your psyche, guiding and challenging you to confront emotional truths.
Personal Reflection
This dream may be inviting you to:
Examine areas in your life where you feel "stuck" or unable to find a clear path forward.
Address emotional burdens or feelings of guilt that might be weighing you down.
Reassess situations where external pressures (like financial or societal expectations) conflict with your values.
Embrace your empathy and channel it into constructive actions that align with your principles.
Key Takeaway
This dream speaks to your deep sense of morality, empathy, and frustration with unjust circumstances. It encourages self-reflection and finding ways to balance practicality with compassion, all while addressing the inner "sand" that may hinder your growth.
