I dreamt of a baby boy, as if I had dreamt of him before. Beside me was my late brother Adolf. I held the baby boy tightly and kissed his face. I asked him if he missed me, and he said yes, even though I hadn't been home before.
I told him how much I love him. Then he had to go to school. Despite looking like a baby, he could walk. I saw the kindergarten bus approaching. The baby boy was wearing a blue-gray-white sweater, getting ready to leave.
Outside the door, I saw a little doll also dressed in blue-gray-white. I said, "Huh? How did you shrink?" A voice from behind said, "Mom, I'm here!" On closer inspection, it turned out the doll at the door looked exactly like him. "Hey! How come this toy looks exactly like you?"
The baby boy ran around in the lobby of the building, waiting for the school bus. I shouted, "Hey! Don't run so fast, be careful when you walk!"
I was still puzzled about mistaking a toy doll for my own child. Looking at the baby boy, he really looked like a slightly larger version of a baby doll.
The baby boy ran around happily, seeming glad that I was back home. I felt emotional, thinking about how I had left my family for years to pursue my career, but I was also happy now that I was back home and my child was going to school. It was that kind of feeling...
夢見一個男寶寶，好像之前也有夢到他，旁邊是我弟弟 Adolf (已過世)。我抱著那個男寶寶，用力親著他的臉。我問他有沒有想我，他就說有，可是我之前都不在家。
我跟他說我好愛他。然後他要去上學，他雖然是嬰兒的樣子，可是他會走路。我看到幼稚園的娃娃車快來了，男寶寶穿著藍灰白的毛衣準備出門。
我在門口外看到一個小娃娃，也是穿著藍白灰的毛衣。我說：「咦？你怎麼變小了？」後方傳來一個聲音「媽媽，我在這裡啊！」仔細看，原來門口那是一個玩具娃娃「欸！怎麼那個玩具跟你長得一模一樣啊？」
男寶寶在大樓大廳跑來跑去，等校車來。我喊著：｢欸！你不要跑那麼快，走路要小心啊！」
我還是有點納悶，怎麼會把玩具娃娃誤認成自己的孩子。看著男寶寶，他真的就像是大一點版本的嬰兒玩具娃娃。
男寶寶跑來跑去，看來很開心，好像因為我回家了。我心裡很感慨，想說之前為了拼事業，離開家人這些年，但也有點高興我現在回家了，孩子也要去上學了。就是這種心情...
這個夢帶有強烈的情感和象徵元素，可能反映你對家庭、損失和個人旅程的內心想法和感受。以下是一些可能的解釋：
1. 男嬰：寶寶可能代表你生活或你自己的新部分－也許是你培養或感受到深刻情感連結的一個項目、關係或目標。由於他與情感（你對他的愛）和成長（他走路和上學的能力）聯繫在一起，所以它可能象徵著責任感，或你一直在努力的新開始。他作為一個正在成長但仍需要照顧的孩子的外表，可能反映了你對生活中正在發展的事物的感受。
2. 已故的弟弟：你已故的弟弟出現在夢中，可能象徵著未解決的感受、記憶或失去他的情感影響。在夢中，已故的家人通常代表智慧、指導或未解決的悲傷。他也可能提醒人們注意家庭連結和情感連結，可能表明你現在對家庭的關注很重要。
3. 洋娃娃和嬰兒：洋娃娃和真嬰兒之間的混淆，表明你對生活中真實或重要的事物存在不確定性或質疑。玩偶通常象徵著某種事物的理想化或人造版本（也許是您對孩子或生活的看法）。意識到洋娃娃不是你的孩子，可能表明你越來越意識到你過去的期望和你現在面臨的現實之間的差異。
4. 事業與家庭：這個夢境也涉及平衡事業和家庭的主題。你表達了複雜的情緒——對離開家鄉追求事業感到遺憾，但又為回到家而感到高興。這可能表示你的職業抱負和與親人親近的情感需求之間，存在著內在衝突。這個夢可能會敦促你平靜地對待你所做的決定，或重新評估你的優先事項。
5. 奔跑的孩子：男嬰頑皮的奔跑和你對他安全的擔憂，可能象徵著你與生活中重要的事物，重新建立聯繫的喜悅，也象徵著你對是否正確保護或引導它的焦慮。這可能適用於一個孩子、一段關係，甚至一個你投入了情緒能量的項目。
總的來說，這個夢似乎反映了你對愛、失去、成長以及平衡個人和職業生活的感受。你可能正在處理與家庭、時間的流逝，以及你作為照顧者或養育者的角色相關的情緒。
1. Reunion with the Child
As the baby boy runs around, laughing and playing, you walk over to him and pick him up. He looks into your eyes and says, "I'm so glad you're home." You feel a deep sense of peace and contentment, knowing that despite the time apart, the love between you remains strong. You carry him outside, and the school bus fades away, as if it's no longer important. Instead, you decide to spend the day together, enjoying the moment of reunion.
2. The Baby Becomes an Adult
As the baby boy runs toward the bus, you blink, and suddenly he is no longer a baby but an adult. He turns to you and smiles, saying, "You did everything right, even when you weren't here." His words fill you with relief and pride. You realize that even though you spent time away, your love and efforts shaped him into the person he is. He waves goodbye and walks confidently toward the future, while you watch with a calm heart.
3. The Doll Transforms
Just as you notice the toy doll and feel confused, the doll transforms into a mirror image of yourself as a child. It speaks to you, saying, "Don't forget who you were." You suddenly understand that the doll represents your inner child, the part of you that yearns for love and attention. You kneel down, hug the doll, and feel a surge of self-compassion. The baby boy stops running and joins you, and together, you hold both the past and the present in your heart.
4. A Sudden Farewell
As the baby boy runs joyfully, the school bus arrives. He looks back at you one last time before getting on. As the bus pulls away, you feel a bittersweet sense of closure. You understand that this was a dream about letting go. Whether it's a loved one, a phase of your life, or an opportunity, something has passed, and while it hurts, there is also a sense of peace in the farewell.
5. The Brother’s Message
Before the baby boy leaves, your deceased brother steps forward and hands you a letter. Inside is a message that reads: "You are home now, but don’t forget to nurture yourself." You suddenly realize the dream is not just about your family, but also about your own well-being. As the baby boy goes to school, you feel lighter, understanding that you’ve been given permission to focus on your own growth and happiness.
Each of these endings changes the emotional tone of the dream, adding new layers of meaning to reflect different aspects of personal growth, closure, or self-awareness.
This dream carries strong emotional and symbolic elements that may reflect your inner thoughts and feelings about family, loss, and your personal journey. Here are some possible interpretations:
The Baby Boy: The baby could represent a new part of your life or yourself—perhaps a project, relationship, or goal that you've nurtured or feel a deep emotional connection to. Since he is associated with both affection (your love for him) and growth (his ability to walk and go to school), it might symbolize a sense of responsibility or a new beginning that you've been working on. His appearance as a child who is growing but still in need of care could reflect feelings about something that is developing in your life.
The Deceased Brother: Your late brother’s presence in the dream may symbolize unresolved feelings, memories, or the emotional impact of his loss. In dreams, deceased family members often represent wisdom, guidance, or unresolved grief. He may also serve as a reminder of family ties and emotional bonds, possibly showing that your focus on family is important right now.
The Doll and the Baby: The confusion between the doll and the real baby suggests an uncertainty or questioning of what is real or important in your life. Dolls often symbolize an idealized or artificial version of something (perhaps your perception of your child or life). The realization that the doll is not your child could indicate a growing awareness of the difference between your past expectations and the reality you're facing now.
Career vs. Family: The dream also touches on themes of balancing career and family. You express a mix of emotions—regret for having been away pursuing your career, but also happiness for being back home. This could indicate inner conflict between your professional ambitions and your emotional need to be close to your loved ones. The dream may be urging you to find peace with the decisions you’ve made or to reassess your priorities.
The Running Child: The baby boy’s playful running and your concern for his safety may symbolize both your joy at reconnecting with something important in your life and your anxieties about whether you're protecting or guiding it properly. This could apply to a child, a relationship, or even a project that you've put emotional energy into.
Overall, this dream seems to reflect your feelings about love, loss, growth, and balancing personal and professional life. You may be processing emotions related to family, the passage of time, and your role as a caregiver or nurturer.
