Garbage Cans

To dream of a garbage can represents ideas, memories, habits, or situations that you don't want to notice ever again. You want to see something over or simply don't care about something anymore.

Example: A woman dreamed of searching through a garbage can for a hand written note she placed in the garbage and not being able to find it. In waking life a man she had been dating had carefully told her to stop certain behavior that annoyed him and then broke up with her when she didn't. She felt desperate to try hard to get a second chance to prove herself with him, but it was pointless as he had no interest in her anymore. The garbage can in this case may have reflected her feelings about having disregarded the advice of the man she was dating.

Behavior that accepts others never needing to be perfect. Behavior that accepts you avoiding something excessive. An aspect of your personality that is nicer than someone else.

Negatively, Canadian people may reflect a "nice guy" mentality that may hold you back. Being too content with being just good enough and avoiding anything excessive or over-the-top, leading to a lack of assertiveness or a tendency to conform to expectations, rather than pursuing one's own goals and desires. Feeling obligated to follow the same path and not take risks or make bold moves. This mentality may ultimately limit the dreamer's growth and personal fulfillment.

Example 2: A young woman dreamed of a growing canary in a birdcage.

Example 2: A woman dreamed of seeing a candle being held close her leg by a nurse who kept slowly bringing the candle closer to her leg until she felt burned by the candle. In waking life she had leg pain that she hoped would go away and then woke up one day to discover that she had developed an infection in her bone marrow.\
