(no subject)
I've been very restless lately. Having trouble getting to sleep. Constantly fighting with myself. It's so frustrating when my body can't do what my mind wants it to. I'm constantly wanting to do things that are beyond my physical limitations now. And it's starting to get to me again.
Anyway, after a long night of struggling to sleep and tossing and turning, I had this dream.
I was a white horse. Or it was linked to me in some way (usually certain white animals are a representation of my spirit guide.) After that I was dreaming that I was in a calm river and I had to move through it very quietly and gracefully. Because I needed to master how to be calm like the water. It was like an initiation. Something my spirit had to learn.
While I was dreaming I knew that this was a message and not just a dream. I knew that there was something that I needed to learn from it. So when I woke up I looked up what the horse represented. It said that to dream of a horse symbolizes a need to tame physical energy. To me the horse also resents my wild spirit. My need to try new things, to explore, to be free. And of course the second part of the dream already made sense to me. To me, moving quietly through the water represented my mental state. I have to learn how to calm my mind. To have to be graceful at the same time represents the need to master my physical form. Together it means that I need to learn how to balance my mind and body.
I need to stop fighting. And learn how to be content with myself. And to accept my limitations. That doesn't mean that I should let it break my spirit altogether. Like a wild horse needs to tamed. But I need to learn how to be more balanced.
