Foreign Land
To dream of a strange foreign land represents feelings about situations that are unfamiliar, unstable, or unknown to you. A mindset that is unusual to you. You may be experiencing change or conflict with people that you are not used to. You may feel like an outsider, like you don't belong, or are experiencing a number of new situations. Feeling excluded or apart. How confident or afraid you are in the foreign land may reflect how prepared or anxious you are about any current changes. New situations that you have no prior experience with.
Example: A woman dreamed of being stuck in a foreign country with no escape. In waking life she was aware of herself being close to the beginning of her menstrual period starting. The foreign land she couldn't escape most likely reflected her discomfort with having her period while also not wanting to talk about it to her lover.
Example 2: A woman dreamed of getting on a plane to travel to a foreign country. In waking life he was pregnant for the first time about close to giving birth.
Example 3: A woman dreamed of being in a foreign land. In waking life she was a psychologist in private practice that was trying to change careers by doing a radio show, something she had no experience with at all.
