Example 2: A man dreamed of sitting in a public park drinking a beer when suddenly enemies from his past started to walk passed him quietly. In waking life, a criminal hacking robbery situation ended and the dreamer was required to control himself with non-violence to allow the criminals to offer a plea bargain in public before he had them arrested. In this case, the public park may have reflected the dreamer's understanding that even though he was in a position of relative safety and relaxation about the crime finally being caught, he had to maintain civility and composure, especially in a public or open setting, to ensure the legal process played out in his favor.

Parking Curbs

To dream of a concrete parking curb represents a barrier or obstacle in your life that prevents you from "going in life" where you want to. The inability to experience what you really want. Feeling that something is holding you back. Feeling stuck or forced to discontinue a life direction that you want to go in. A sign that you have underlying problems that need to be addressed on a fundamental level.

Example: A man dreamed of seeing Disneyland from the parking lot with concrete parking curbs blocking him. In waking life he was overweight and had lost a lot of weight in the hospital that he couldn't keep off. The Disneyland scenery he couldn't get to reflected his enjoyment of life while being skinny that he couldn't achieve because he couldn't keep the weight off. The parking stop reflected his weight problem stopping from liking life as a skinny person.

It could symbolize your acknowledgment of the need to rest, reflect, or take a break. This dream could reflect your thoughts about the costs (emotional, financial, time, etc.) associated with this inactive or stagnant period.

Positively, dreaming about a parking lot receipt might symbolize an acceptance and understanding of the need for rest and reflection. It may reflect a conscious decision to take some time out of your busy schedule for personal care, relaxation, or self-introspection.

Example: A woman dreamed of being in a parking lot and looking at a car's windshield to see that it had no parking lot receipt. In waking life, she was frustrated by her husband and had lots of arguments with him about not taking on responsibilities and always leaving them for her to deal with. In this case, seeing no parking lot receipt may have reflected her feelings of frustration about the lack of acknowledgment or validation for the pause or delay in their shared responsibilities. The absence of a parking lot receipt may also represent her internal demand for evidence or proof of her husband's commitment and participation in their shared responsibilities.
