my husband had this dream last night, and I was able to interpret it fairly easily:

 

opening scene: was his father who died in 1999, and when younger man would drink , and as a matter of fact, he did like to tip a few (beers), even until his death at age 84.......

going to the Veterans club to do so.

 

The man was a rather troubled (emotionally driven Scorpio Sun), and depicted many of those troubling traits of a Scorpio, with a Capricorn rising and Aries Moon. Very fiery, easily ignitable, and very very emotional.

 

So, in the dream Ralph saw his dad in a bar drinking, and felt he had to help him leave the bar......as the  bartender said he'd be drinking too much.

As it turned out, he has not been drinking so much, (changed?) and easily left the bar saying, He'd had enough.....

 

................. Ralph &* I were in  a  place where an exotic dancer was going to do her routine.

I was sitting at the table, and Ralph said, "Let's go Deb, you don't want to be here", and I said" I', ok..." but then the "Spotlight" was pun onto me at my table.,as the exotic dancer went on talking or doing a routine in  a joking manner.

Ralph got upset, about the spotlight on me, and wanted to leave telling me this, and he "threw a banana peel" at the dancer which hit her and the audience laughed....

 

He said he was upset and wanted to leave, which we did.

 

..................................................................................................

 

.................There was a home we were in and the water came up to the edge of the town, as though with just a rain we'd be swept away by the currents......."no break" water there in the dream.

 

.................Then, behind the home, where it wasn't visible to us at first, was a hill, a very steep one and on the other side of the hill, at the bottom of it, we could see children, families and people who had a seemingly normal life and the water was both placid and plenty of sand, not like the other side at all.

...............There were some children however who be acting rowdy (over the hill, where the water was without a "breakwater" apparatus......

 

 

 

 

I told him it sounded (as he told me the dream), like "our life" a Reflection then of the past 35  years, much of which was very emotionally driven (the water with NO BREAK.....apparatus, which could have "swept us away" with just one rain...or flood.

This is how our life has been emotionally for both of us for the past 8 years or so.

 

The "rowdy kids" he heard, are apparently our own children? who aren't rowdy or misbehaving as children, but as adults have been the source of much tears & upset......

 

The "other side" of the hill, which wasn't visible., in back of the house was a hill and down this steep hill was a nice , pleasant scene with water/lake with plenty of sand.....

(this says that not now, but there is another side, not seen yet, to come and our time will come when life will be less upsetting and more placid as the scene depicted. BUT, we cannot see it now......(it was hidden from view).

 

The "Spotlight" on me, is because of my own life's burdens, which came tumbling down in the late 80s on me, having to do with sexual abuse (the barroom scene).......and I said to him, "I'm okay",...........

The "throwing of the banana peel" at the dancer, was because he was upset that the spotlight had caused so much grief in our lives....due to one "slip".(a pun for a banana peel, I suppose).

 

Throwing it then at the dancer saying it was the cause.....(sexual abuse)for the "slip-up".
