I dreamed that I was an art school student living in a rented dormitory-style apartment, trying to live frugally. Next door, a female student and her boyfriend lived together. The boyfriend appeared older, and I felt they were very greedy.
Sometimes, people would leave art-related magazines or reproductions of artworks in the mailbox area of the apartment for us to use for practice. Everyone would take just one or two pieces, but the neighbors would always grab everything. We wouldn’t say anything, but we’d think, "Why do you take everything without leaving anything for others?"
I remember seeing a lot of loose-leaf art prints on the ground, like one showing a nude woman sitting cross-legged with her long hair conveniently covering her modesty. There were many similar prints and books about art history donated by others, but they always ended up taking everything.
One time, after class, I passed by the mailbox area and saw someone had left some magazines on the ground, which they promptly snatched up again. I thought they were incredibly selfish.
In my dream, I saw their room was packed with various items, including green and black metal office cabinets stacked with sneakers and roller skates. They seemed to spend lavishly, yet they still acted like cheapskates.
I also remember there was a lively theater resembling something from medieval Europe. They seemed short-staffed and were hiring security guards. My boyfriend took on a temporary job there. The theater seemed to double as a casino, and he was tasked with handling money and locking it in a safe.
One day, I visited the theater and overheard people talking about a robbery. An art piece from the vault had been stolen, and the theater owner—who was a mafia boss—was furious.
Later, I overheard their radio communication. They suspected my boyfriend because someone had seen him at a market buying materials. As an art student, he often practiced making reproductions. I recalled seeing him craft something using black wire—a sun motif with red flowers around it. He enjoyed working with natural materials. I wasn’t sure if he was making reproductions or creating original art, but the mafia boss believed he was behind the theft and planned to retaliate. Eventually, I found out my boyfriend had indeed robbed the mafia boss and was now on the run.
When I returned to the apartment, I saw a pile of art magazines in the mailbox area, but the neighbor's boyfriend had taken almost all of them again. Angry, I confronted them.
I said, "You’re so selfish. Your room is already piled high with magazines. Are you even reading them? Are you using them? Are you practicing with them? These materials are meant for others to sketch and practice. A book might have 100 prints—you could take one or two and leave the rest for others, but you take everything! What’s your deal?"
It seemed like they were selling the materials to cover their expenses. I just thought they were incredibly selfish.
Later, it turned out the neighbor's boyfriend discovered my boyfriend’s involvement in the robbery and informed the mafia boss. Now, the mafia boss had sent people after him, forcing my boyfriend to flee.
夢見我像是藝術學校的學生,住在一個租來的宿舍公寓裡,省省過日子。隔壁鄰居住著一個女學生,還有她的男朋友。男生看起來年紀比較大,我覺得他們很貪心。
公寓這邊有時候有一些人會拿一些藝術相關雜誌,或是有一些複製本的畫,放在信箱區這邊,讓我們拿去練習。大家都是一份一份的拿,但隔壁鄰居男女常常就是全部拿走。我們當然也不會講什麼,只是覺得「你怎麼一個人全拿,也不留一些給別人?」
我記得看到地上很多那種散裝、可以一頁頁撕下來的印刷畫,例如像是有個女子裸身坐著,雙腿交叉,和長髮剛好遮住重要部位的畫。很多類似這類關於藝術歷史的印刷品和相關書籍,有人捐出來,可是都被他們收走。
有一次我下課回來,經過信箱區,看到有人放了一些雜誌在地上,又被他們全部收走。我覺得他們真的好貪心喔!
夢裡我看到他們的房間裡,其實也堆了不少東西。裡面有一些像是辦公家具綠色和黑色鐵櫃子,上面放著一些球鞋,還有溜冰鞋。看來他們的消費還蠻奢侈的,可是就是一付貪小便宜的心態。
然後我記得好像有一個像是歐洲中古時代的戲院,平常也很熱鬧。他們缺人,好像要找保鏢吧!感覺他們好像有做一些非法勾當。平時都有兩個保鑣站崗,臨時缺一人,我男朋友就去做這個臨時的工作。感覺那個戲院也做賭場生意,我男友去幫他們收帳,然後把錢放進保險箱。
有一次我到戲院,聽到他們說好像金庫被打劫了,有件藝術品被偷走。戲院老闆是黑幫老大,他非常生氣。
後來我無意中聽到他們內部用無線電通話,好像他們懷疑是我男朋友幹的。因為他們說有人看到我男友在市集裡買一些材料,因為他是藝術系的學生,也會練習做複製品。
我想起好像也有看到他用黑色鐵絲做一個太陽造型,旁邊還有一朵朵紅花的藝術品。他本來就喜歡用天然材料來創作。我不知道他是在做複製品還是創作。總之,黑幫老大已經懷疑搶劫是他幹的,準備要進行報復。後來我知道的確是我男友搶了黑幫老大,他逃亡了。
我回到公寓,看到信箱那裡堆了很多藝術相關的雜誌,鄰居男友又把雜誌幾乎全部拿走。我很生氣,跑去跟他們理論。
我說:「你們真的很自私。房間裡明明已經堆了很多雜誌,你有在看嗎?你有在用嗎?你有在練習嗎?你們把東西幾乎都拿走,也不留一些給其他人。明明有一些是讓人家可以臨摹練習描繪的印刷品,一本裡面可能有 100 張,你拿一兩張就可以,其他留給別人,可是你全部都拿走。你是要幹嘛?」好像他們會拿去轉賣,當自己的生活費。反正我就是覺得他們很自私。
好像是她男友發現我男朋友參與那個搶劫,所以去跟黑幫老大告密。現在黑幫老大派人要來抓我男友,所以我男友就跑路了。
解釋你的夢境需要探索它的象徵和主題,它們通常反映潛意識的想法、感受或擔憂。以下是對你的夢境的分析:
1. 藝術學生的生活
夢中你作為藝術學生的角色代表創造力、自我表達,或許也代表著一段學習或個人成長的時期。住在簡樸的公寓裡,意味著注重簡單或犧牲來追求你的熱情,但它也可能反映出你當前生活中的限制或不安全感。
2. 貪婪的鄰居
貪婪的鄰居拿走所有的藝術雜誌,象徵著自私或不公平,你可能會在你的周圍環境或人際關係中感受到這一點。它們可能反映出對資源稀缺的恐懼、缺乏共同價值觀,或對那些以犧牲他人利益為代價,來利用機會的人感到沮喪。
3. 劇場與黑幫老大
中世紀劇院兼作賭場,喚起了一種二元性——藝術和文化與風險和危險交織在一起。黑幫老大象徵權威、控制或恐懼的形象。這可能代表你面臨的外在壓力、權力鬥爭或道德兩難。
你的男朋友在那裡工作並被指控盜竊,這表明信任和背叛。他的行為可能象徵著你自己或你生活中的某人,為了實現目標而冒險或違反規則。該指控可能表明你害怕誤解、判斷,或參與你無法控制的事情。
4. 藝術材料和複製品
捐贈的藝術雜誌和印刷品,代表靈感、學習和分享資源。鄰居拿走一切而不分享的習慣,可能會凸顯協作環境中的不公平感,或對利用公共資源的人感到沮喪。
你男友用天然材質製作的手工藝品,象徵創造力和個性。然而,黑幫將他的行為解釋為盜竊,可能反映出擔心因你的野心或非常規方法,而被誤解或評判。
5. 與鄰居對抗
你與鄰居的對抗,表明你渴望維護自己的權利、挑戰不公平現象,或倡導公平待遇。這一刻反映出需要堅持自己的價值觀,並在你感到被忽視或被利用的情況下尋求正義。
6. 逃離與背叛
你的男友逃離黑幫象徵著躲避或逃避後果,無論這些後果是真實的還是感知的。它可能反映出對不誠實、未解決的衝突,或需要面對困難事實的焦慮。鄰居的背叛可能代表擔心被揭露,或被你認為中立或支持的人評判。

Ending 2: Embracing Freedom

Interpreting your dream involves exploring its symbols and themes, which often reflect subconscious thoughts, feelings, or concerns. Here's an analysis of your dream:
1. Living as an Art Student
Your role as an art student in the dream represents creativity, self-expression, and perhaps a period of learning or personal growth. Living in a modest apartment suggests a focus on simplicity or sacrifice to pursue your passions, but it might also reflect feelings of limitation or insecurity in your current life.
2. Greedy Neighbors
The greedy neighbors who take all the art supplies symbolize selfishness or unfairness, which you may perceive in your surroundings or relationships. They might reflect a fear of resource scarcity, a lack of shared values, or frustration with people who exploit opportunities at the expense of others.
3. The Theater and Mafia Boss
The medieval theater doubling as a casino evokes a sense of duality—art and culture intertwined with risk and danger. The mafia boss symbolizes a figure of authority, control, or fear. This could represent external pressures, power struggles, or moral dilemmas you are facing.
Your boyfriend working there and being accused of theft suggests trust and betrayal. His actions could symbolize a part of yourself or someone in your life taking risks or breaking rules to achieve goals. The accusation may point to a fear of misunderstanding, judgment, or being implicated in something beyond your control.
4. Artistic Materials and Reproductions
The donated art magazines and prints represent inspiration, learning, and shared resources. The neighbors’ habit of taking everything without sharing could highlight feelings of unfairness in collaborative environments or frustration with people who exploit common resources.
Your boyfriend’s crafting with natural materials symbolizes creativity and individuality. However, the mafia’s interpretation of his actions as theft may reflect concerns about being misunderstood or judged for your ambitions or unconventional methods.
5. Confrontation with Neighbors
Your confrontation with the neighbors suggests a desire to assert yourself, challenge unfairness, or advocate for equitable treatment. This moment reflects a need to stand up for your values and seek justice in situations where you feel overlooked or taken advantage of.
6. Escape and Betrayal
Your boyfriend fleeing from the mafia symbolizes avoidance or escape from consequences, whether they are real or perceived. It could reflect anxieties about dishonesty, unresolved conflicts, or the need to face difficult truths. The neighbor’s betrayal may represent fears of being exposed or judged by others you thought were neutral or supportive.
Overall Interpretation
This dream reflects a mix of creativity, conflict, and moral dilemmas. Key themes include:
Frustration with Unfairness: Feeling that others are exploiting resources or opportunities without regard for fairness or collaboration.
Moral Ambiguity: Struggling with perceptions of right and wrong, particularly when faced with accusations or betrayal.
Assertion and Boundaries: A desire to advocate for fairness and justice, even in the face of resistance.
Creativity and Authenticity: A focus on expressing your individuality while navigating external judgments and expectations.
This dream could be encouraging you to reflect on your values, assert your boundaries, and address imbalances in your life. It might also urge you to trust your creative instincts while remaining mindful of how your actions affect others.
