"Dream banking-Vampires"

Last night, I dreamt of vampires and being one...then, having my head cut off cause I was. So, again, being as curious as I am, I looked up what MIGHT be the meaning of having vampires in your dream and dying meant. This is what I came across.

Vampire

To see a vampire in your dream, symbolizes seduction and sensuality, as well as fear and death. The vampire represents contrasting images of civilized nobility and aggression/ferocity. It may depict someone in your waking life whose charm may ultimately prove harmful. Deep down inside you know that this person is bad for you, yet you are still drawn to it. Vampires also sometimes relate to decisions about sex and losing your virginity. Alternatively, to see a vampire suggests that you are feeling physically or emotionally drained. The vampire may also be symbolic for someone who is addicted to drugs or someone in an obsessive relationship.

To dream that you are a vampire, signifies that you are sucking in the life energy of others for your own selfish benefit.

The vampires in your dream may suggest that you are feeling drained of your life energy and autonomy. In dreaming that you are fighting these vampires, is a literal depiction of your daily struggles with keeping things in order. You may be suffering from exhaustion or feeling overwhelmed in some aspect of your domestic or personal life which explains the tiredness you feel when you wake up.�


Die

To dream that you die in your dream, symbolizes inner changes, transformation, self-discovery and positive development that is happening within you or in your life. Although such a dreams may bring about feelings of fear and anxiety, it is no cause for alarm and is often considered a positive symbol. Dreams of experiencing your own death usually means that big changes are ahead for you. You are moving on to new beginnings and leaving the past behind. These changes does not necessarily imply a negative turn of events. Metaphorically, dying can be seen as an end or a termination to your old ways and habits. So, dying does not always mean a physical death, but an ending of something.

Now again, let me reiterate that I do not believe that dreams have literal meanings but that the mind has it's own way of processing our everyday's feelings, events, and so forth. Then in our slumber, our active minds recreate how we feel in an anology or story in our minds.

I dreamnt of vampires, which of course, are fictional characters. But I dreamnt that they were real and I became one. Lately, I've been struggling with what I'm suppose to be doing with my life, and even to the point of asking God to reveal to me already what he would have me to do to serve him with my time here on earth.

I've lived my life with the mindset that I will NOT be those women who's life calling is to simply be a "domestic engineer". I've constructed my life with the struggle to be indepedent, strong, and without many things women "need"-men.
But I finally came to the acceptance that I just might simply be called to be one's "help-meet". I've been struggling with this issue. Being one's helper doesn't neccessarily mean you are below them or even lower than them. It simply means you are more humble than most to accept that another persons needs your assistance. I've fought my whole life to be a career women only to finally open my heart to the fact that what I'm best at is helping others, and that no career I can possibly obtain will ever give me true satisfatction like I get when I'm teaching my teen girls class or when I'm helping Phil out at the care home. I'm a packaged deal. I come with MANY talents, but one purpose and that is to serve. "Serve what?" you might ask. Well, basically whoever God has in mind for me, He will be called to do something or somewhere where He will NEED me. That is where my service and life purpose may start.

So basically, my dream helped me come to terms with the fact that I am moving on to big things in life, and I shouldn't be scared. And it's not I'm scared that I won't make it in life alone, but more like, scared that everything I thought I wanted to be(successful, financially stable, and independent)might not be what God really wants me to be, but simple a women of humility. Enough to be a lover of life and a helper to all.
