7 million pounds, punching a man and connecting with sister in law dream

[Ladyrose92]

Last Thursday I dreamt as I was waking up I kept hearing someone shouting over and over again in a booming voice! "7 million pounds/dollars" "£7 million pounds/dollars "about 5 to 7 times there were no other recollections of this dream dream other than seeing a man standing in nothing but darkness with their hands up in the air.

Yesterday I dreamt I was getting on the bus and there were 4 to 5 small girls playing and men were around them watching them. I was being cautious watching to protect them if I needed to. As I sat down someone touched me under my dress I was looking around and this man said a slang word that referred to my period pad because I was on my period. I grabbed him and started punching him repeatedly in the nose, his nose was bleeding down his face. Then the dream changed Becky, my brother-in-law's fiance was standing near me, again in this black surrounding, so I went up to her and began to cuddle her I was saying what a wonderful mum she is and that she is amazing that she really does well. I said sorry if I've been a bit iffy over the past few years and I've not really said it before but that she is a really amazing mum. She looked tearful but peacefully appreciative. She then said to me "it's all about those that stick by you no matter what through it, all that's what counts". All I could see was me and her in a sparkly glittery black abyss.


I felt this last dream may represent my anger about keep coming on my period when I really want a baby and my subsequent healing of this by being able to say what I did to Becky about her being a wonderful mum. I feel her reply was a pearl of wisdom as a reward for this healing. I have no idea what the seven million pounds dream was, I couldn't remember if he was shouting pounds or dollars but I believe it was pounds. What do these dreams mean? Thank you!

Still confused about this dream. Any interpretions would be appreciated!

there's an unmistakable touch of mistrust aimed at the males in these dreams.
in dream one, you've said that the man had "their" hands up, rather than "his",
which seems to be 'objectifying' him to some degree. in dream two, when you
observed girl children at play you seem to believe that they might be subject
to attack by the adult males... whyizzit that you've not considered that the
children might attack the adults there? [i'm assuming that you'd described
yourself as being concerned for the children's welfare, and not the men.]
then, a random male touches you inappropriately, and you physically assault
him repeatedly, as if he was deserving of punishment. was he actually a
doctor who'd wished to provide healing for you? these three bits are
indications of your holding a resentment towards male energies i figure.

here's a song that only vaguely relates to your thread here:

I think this dream is absolutely a wisdom dream. You are coming into accepting the revealed truths of what our society values, versus what you yourself value. And you are seeing just how stark the differences are.

Our society values:

1. MONEY/POWER -- USED AS A MEANS TO GRATIFICATION OF ONE'S DESIRES
There is the man screaming excitedly and throwing his hands up over money. (It was near 7 million pounds won in the lottery in Waking Ned Devine...maybe you've seen that one, LOL. But anyway it's lucky 7).

Society values money and gratuitous indulgence of one's desires -- certainly above love, trust, integrity, and loyalty in many cases. Also, it values the power and access that money buys.

2. SEXUAL EXPLOITATION AND PREDATION OF THE VULNERABLE AS A MEANS TO GRATIFICATION OF URGES
Men are attuned by mainstream societal norms to view women as prey. They have to make a constant, and very conscious decision to NOT go the way of mainstream culture in all things of the heart...or else they will be guided to these rather toxic mainstream views by default, unfortunately. The predation and exploitation of women for sex is something women deal with their entire lives. It begins young, the sexualisation and commodification of women for sex and for the gratification of men's physical and ego-based desires.

You didn't get a safe or ok feeling from the adult men standing around watching the young girls playing. Girls who should never have to be subjected to the overly sexualised social norms. Who should be able to play innocently rather than having to deal with the degraded and sick perversions of strangers. Thus you felt you needed to do the responsible thing and watch over the young girls who were, you felt, already being viewed as prey by the men watching them and who may have come to harm.

3. WOMEN AS SEXUAL OBJECTS/FOR SEXUAL UTILITY BUT NOT JUST AS EQUALS IN THE FULLNESS OF THEIR HUMANITY
In our current mainsteam culture, men have been attuned by very degraded, pornografied, often violent and hostile views of women...and to an extremely artificial, sterile, and unnatural view of a woman's body. Likewise, this set of cultural norms also carries a very degraded and unnatural view of a woman's value (none, apart from her appearance and her willingness to be sexually promiscuous and up for a "good time" with "no strings" for whomever fancies a shag).

Men are encouraged to view all women as prostitutes under the current cultural norms (for free, of course) and are assumed to own or control women through these degraded, unloving sexual acts, arrangements, or "relationships" in this cultural milieu -- such that a man can do as he pleases with any woman...moreover, he no longer needs to marry her to "take ownership", though that can still happen. An extension of this is replete in porn in the domination of women through (often forced, violent, and degrading) sexual penetration.

Thus the man who grabs your crotch as if he owns you, like a piece of meat, but then casts you off or puts you down and tries to shame you since you are on your period -- as apparently he sees that you not available to him sexually at the time...and thus your worth is lowered.

You however have a different spin on it...you value yourself as you are, which means as a woman in the fullness of her humanity, one who may also bear children (or not) and who has her own mind and heart. You will not be confined to being deemed worthy only if available for penetration "off period".

Also you nurture the realities of love, family, friendship and children (who -- in the mainstream cultural paradigm of 24/7 sexual availability -- are simply the troublesome reality of failed birth control and TOTALLY at odds with the idea of women as carefree sex toys for men with no real-world complexities or considerations of the sexual act, like pregnancy and childbirth)

...and you are moved to show your sister in law love and kindness, in recognition and solidarity. She also speaks of the importance of love and family and friendship...and in the value of being present and of being supportive with one another. You are in agreement that these values -- and not those of the mainstream social paradigm (which is really quite toxic regarding these things, and ignorant of authentic love and individual worth) are what truly matter.


Peace & blessings

Thank you for your response. This seems to be accurate in some ways, from my own experience in life men have let me down an awful lot and broken my trust with them, so it makes sense that this is what the dream is saying. It just felt like the children were happily playing and these men were encroaching their personal space. The man that touched me on the bus looked similar to a man that gets on my bus that my partner told me he saw him staring at school girls, so maybe this dream relates around the feelings I felt about that man and what it means in my own life and experience. Thanks for bringing this to light, my partner says I always refer to 'all men' so I will work on this belief.

Hey, thank you for your response 7L, this makes sense, I often feel out of place in society as I have different values.

As you say, society values money and personal gratification, I so highly value love, trust integrity etc but it seems this is not valued in myself within my society, I feel ignored, pushed aside and undervalued in this instance. I am quiet poor in a sense of money, but this does not matter to me, what matters are the personal qualities of someones character that makes them a better person.

As to sexual exploitation, I see this all the time and it really affects me, even just watching things my partner likes on telly, I see so much abuse and exploitation of vulnerable people, it makes me feel sick! Around my area I always see men perving over school girls and I can't stand it, I want to protect them.

I also cant stand separation and inequality based on gender, I cant stand that women are degraded and in most cases in society, seen as secondary to men, when In my opinion, women have such a great potential that has been stifled by men over time. When I read that women once ruled the world and it was men that began using brute strength etc to prove they are worth more, and now this has led to today's society, I just want women, and men, to be free and seen as who they are as a person, not categorised by societal norms. I hate so many things, like my partner says, as you have described, that a woman who enjoys her sexuality is a slag, just their for the mans gratification, but he is seen as bigger and better by enjoying his sexuality. There are so many other things, like not being able to speak up and stand up for oneself as a woman because men, or even other women who don't value solidarity, will try to break that person down. That is exactly it, he tried to make me feel small in my dream and I wasn't going to allow that, the violence seemed quiet strong as I was punching him, but I feel very strongly about this so that all makes sense to me.


For me love, family, friendship and children is what matters most to me in my heart, I value who I am as an individual, as with everyone else, so yes it does make clear sense that this dream is highlighting the difference between my own values and those of the society I live in.

My sister in law and I have not gotten on since we've known each other almost 10 years now, she said to my partner when we were separated that he shouldn't be with me because I am too outspoken. I am not outspoken, I am very introvert but I always stand up for what I believe in. She, interestingly, is very outspoken and always has to have the last word, even in ignorance, so I find things like this difficult as she is cutting me down for similar characteristics to what she has, bringing me down and trying to outcast me in the family. I feel all I can do, is to show kindness and love, I hope this over time will improve things and show her she doesn't need to compete against me. So the dream of me hugging her was shocking, but it showed me that I am being the bigger person on that situation and standing by values such as sticking together and family etc. I am glad the summary of this dream was that authentic love and worth is what is most important, as this is what I have been teaching myself to increase my own self worth.

Thanks again for your interpretation, it is most helpful!

Warm wishes,

Rose.

I'm so glad LadyRose
I feel your sentiments are just spot on...I share them completely.
I really sympathise and I think you are quite a wise woman indeed...your dreams are really giving your heart, mind, and voice yet another outlet to be heard.

Stand strong and keep being who you are -- it's a beautiful thing, really.
Sending you much love & light

The 7 million pounds is the news story in The U.K a few days ago. It is the money The Isle of Wight will get from travellers & businesses when they get their new catamaran ferry soon. Maybe you're thinking about moving to the island to work & live, & taking some relatives with you, to avoid the sexual grooming that is happening openly now.
