Husband shaving his head
I had a really upsetting dream today.
In my dream, I was lying in my bed, and I looked out of the bedroom door, from which you can see the bathroom door. I saw my husband coming down the hallway, and his head was mostly shaved. He was going in to the bathroom to do a second pass with the clippers to neaten it up and finish it off.
As it happens, my husband has quite long and very beautiful hair, which he grew out specifically because I wanted to see his hair long (when it's long, it curls very beautifully). I love his hair, and spend a lot of time touching it. So in the dream, when I saw he had shaved it off without even saying anything to me, I was shocked and deeply upset.
I went to him and tried to communicate how upset I felt, but he was just completely stone-faced. No communication, no compassion, no empathy, nothing. That upset me even more, and I left the bathroom and got back in bed, where I tried to cry, partly because I wanted to and partly to try to communicate to him just how upset and hurt I felt. So I opened my mouth and I couldn't make any sound come out at all. I was inhaling and then trying to sob, but nothing happened, which I found very frustrating. Finally, I did manage to get a noise to come out, a sort of short burst of sound, and that's what woke me up.
Once awake, I turned over in the bed and literally had to catch my breath. My heart was pounding and I was short of breath.
I've bee thinking about this ever since and I really have no clue what it means. I've never dreamed anything like it before. My husband and I have a very good relationship, very open communication (in waking hours he would never do something drastic like shaving off his hair without telling me!). I do, indeed, love his beautiful hair, so I think that's probably the key symbol here (rather than it being about him, it's about his hair, which probably symbolises something that pleases me, maybe?).
Thoughts welcome.
May the light surround you, may you be blessed. May the light surround us, may we be blessed. May love and light surround us all, and may we all be healed and blessed. And so it is, and so it shall be, now and ever after.
