Then they all looked right at me and I was no longer there I was in a dark place and a face appeared it was not plesent and seemed to try and scare me and I said that didnt scare me and I woke up. your thoughts please

First assume that each character in the dream represents some aspect of yourself. The women may represent parts of yourself relating to emotions or creativity. Older women tend to represent the Wise Old Woman who are nurturing figures; they can also be known as Crones, hags, or witches symbolized by hidden or dark secrets. It seems that the old women in your dream first appear as nurturing wise old women, but when you look at them they become crones. If it is four women then this represents your hidden/shadow side. If it is three women it could be related to your fate (past, present, and future) It seems more likely based on the other dream symbols that it is four women. The fact that they are dressed nice shows that they are masking their intent to scare you. Is there something in your waking life that you are masking, because it is frightening to face up to?
