Interpretation:
.............You are being given a message from your higher self, about your life. The life you've been given this time around, to live out
It's one you've been seriously pondering now for a long time about the worthwhileness (sic) of it.
The dream is saying that it's like Shakespeare said.....I.e. "All the life's a stage, and us, we are all actors each of us playing a role"
(he said it more eloquently of course,lol)
The room then is reminiscent of a state of consciousness, (yours) as your life unfolded here, this time around.
The smoky room is the enviornment you were brought up in, (uncomfortable with it and them).....the gyrating people, doing things they shouldn't be doing, etc.........the more or less crudeness of the people,(mumbling & grumbling)just like your family has been ; this was "more or less" the enviornment you had to put up with to get to this stage in your life now.
So this part of the dream, the "opening scene" is symbolic of early life until now..........just in a condensed version of it for your review.
The fact that you went "up" on a stage,(re: walk up a short flight of stairs on to a stage,) or at least a more elevated platform, is "reaching higher in your consciousness" then those who "disappeared" from your view......It is saying that this dream was from a "higher place" where you are indeed alone with your own self (as we all are in the end, to face ourselves).
Before you open the doors OR curtain, and "looked back" (I.e. symbol for reviewing your past ).......and see they are now All gone, and only you remain.(part of the looking back , seeing who played a role in your consciousness THEN, but NOW understanding, that you stand alone"...both literally & figuratively on your own merits. This then is a review of this fact. Those who were "part of your past" consciousness, are only "as shadows"....I.e. (as blowing dust/or just shadows) in your consciousness. Pieces of paper, part of a stage prop.
The 4 Statues are life's "emblems" of both good & evil.
There were essentially 2 of "Good" symbols . One was Jesus, but on the crucifix, you understood him as a symbol of
sacrifice then. You embraced him., as you do in real waking life......the music was "soothing to you".....but yet there was still a bit of uncomfortableness connected to the whole experience?
The one of Satan, (a symbol of bad), you were "repelled by".......both visually & the music.
The one of Buddha (or Shiva, a woman divinity, much like Buddha)....is just showing you that there are other such divine spiritual beings who essentially "play roles" like the Jesus role, (the martyr) or the Satan role (like the bad in life).
They are then, all as "Role Players" just as we all are, just as Shakespeare wrote about...
So taking place in an "abandoned theatre" is a perfect (beyond perfect) Prop for the Dream to unfold for the message to you.
The 4th symbol, the Triangle shape of various rainbow colors then, is really emblematic of saying there ARE "tiers".....of consciouness, not just the waking & sleeping lives, or even the various reincarnational ones that your higher self is involved in all the time....
You were being given a glimpse of this understanding from the higher self, to answer your questions about "Why me?" "Why do I suffer so??.....this was a gift to you, a glimpse into the Whys.....
The Tiered Triangle is to say there are many many levels and very few we are aware of....good/bad/ it doesn't matter as they are all temporary as "states of consciousness"..then.
None are permanent, and all will disappear (as the temporary people in the theatre really weren't there in the end anyway>...just a shadow or dust....flying around.
From the lowest rung on the tier, to the higher ones to the Dove itself, (emblematic of the Dove of Christ) I'd think.........the purity of spirit.
I'd take this as a gift given to you from your higher self. The one you leave behind when you come here, and will "rejoin" when this life is through. *I don't remember hearing music while standing near or looking at this particular statue, but I remember experiencing a feeling of stillness and contentment,
