The story

i had this weird dream back a month ago and a week or two ago i got another dream with them but for some reason i felt safe in a sense. to give background info, i participate in orchestra, and while i do love it, i genuinely do think singing is a better place for me, and something i can do 90% effortlessly despite being self-taught. the first dream, i was dreaming about my orchestra teacher and apparently in the dream, i was breaking into his home with my best friend for some reason. the house was supposedly greek-themed (keep in mind, i have no idea what the house looks like nor do i want to know), and it was nighttime. i don't know nor remember why i was "breaking into" his house during the dream, but all i remember was towards the end of the dream, i believe i was harshly scolded (or somewhat beaten) while they told my friend to just leave. i feel like some other background information i could give regarding them is that they're actually a very kind person, but they're also strict on proficiency as well, for good intent. however, i get constantly embarrassed to practice at home due to my sister's criticism (i feel like it was a bit harsh, but i got tired of it to the point i would start crying) so i just stopped and tried to squish in before being tested on it. they're always available to help, but i feel quite scared doing so in case i feel i may get scolded (in the unlikely event that that happens). i just want to know what that means because a week ago or two, i had another dream with them but their orchestra room looked a lot more different, mainly that the walls were a different color but i felt like i trusted them. it's not that i don't, but i feel scared to do so. but after that, i was driving this car that i couldn't stop the pedal on nor hit the brake and ended up having to stop it somehow at a dentist's office. but they were no longer there, just this random family where i was doing this trend and somehow the son of the family got the credit for it. i wasn't upset, but i wasn't particularly happy.

i also looked on reddit and quora for some advice to see what it could mean and one user said it means that i could be looking for answers. as much as i agree with it, i feel based off myself and my orchestra teacher, i feel i'm not really seeking answers more than i'm seeking trust from who i can and can't trust to avoid putting my deepest vulnerable life stories into the wrong hands who doesn't trust me (or vice versa) nor have any care for the confidentiality of the story. i can't bring myself to see my teachers as people who do care very much outside of teaching more than i just see them as a teacher because i was afraid to get close to anyone.

so what does my follow-up dream have to do with this?

what does this truly mean then, given the background info and my hurt?

Wow, sounds like those dreams are really messin' with your head! 😅 Totally get the whole orchestra teacher thing. It's like you're caught between wanting to trust and fearing getting burned, right? I've been there; teachers can feel like a whole different species sometimes. You know, the whole "actions speak louder than words" thing definitely counts here. That car scenario’s a perfect metaphor for life feeling outta control. Maybe it points to needing to take the wheel more aggressively in real life. I've found that facing those fears head-on can seriously change the game, just sayin'. Hang in there, you got this!

hmm, I get where you're coming from, but dreams can be tricky, you know? they're not always straightforward. the whole orchestral setting might just be your brain processing daily stress. i mean, "breaking into" your teacher's house sounds more like internal conflict than reality. maybe it's more about your own issues with trust and confidence than your teacher; going from a dream about breaking into a house to a dentist's office with a car you can't control sounds like a stress montage, don't you think?? perhaps you're giving too much weight to dream symbols without evidence. reality and subconscious can blend, but not every dream needs a deep meaning. isn't it more productive to focus on real-life interactions and the support you can have?
