Calling all dream interpreters, animal spirit savants and Johnny crackpots!
After a long, vivid and exceedingly detailed dream that featured a black panther, I believe I?m ready to take a moment for analysis. Please share with me your interpretation of what all these creature visitations means. Let?s review, shall we?
A mouse that lived in my car for a week.*
Black bear crouching at my back door.
Mountain lion in my field.
Black bear standing on my driveway.
Black panther (a merge of the bear and lion?) starring in my dream.
And since you are explaining the world to me, could you please explain how last night I went to bed feeling wretched for no apparent reason?headache, gloomy, uncomfortable?and this morning I woke up feeling on top of my game?loose, chic, singing. And no, there was no sex involved?but nice try. If there were, I?d hardly have trouble understanding what wrought the change, now would I? And no, it isn?t PMS. Again, these are familiar disruptions?something else was going on. Maybe just a case of full moon-itis.
Perhaps, it?s all just a mystery.
*He is gone now. T set a trap for him last night and poor thing was snapped up in it posthaste. I have NO idea how a small mouse gets into your car and lives there for a week, which is what I tried hard to impress upon T. However, he wasn?t buying. We cleaned out my car last night; T made a point of holding up an old bag of pretzels that he exhumed from beneath the back seat. Perhaps the mouse could survive on this, he suggested. But what about water, I countered. Surely the mouse could not eat nothing but pretzels, crumbs, paper bags and napkins without needing water?
got 2 cents?

ok-as for all the wildlife-NO idea. am, however, TOTALLY relieved that for once someone has a more *interesting* story about their car. also, slightly afraid because if all you had was ONE bag of measly pretzels I for sure am commuting with a whole colony of gigantic flesh eating rats.

Isn't it obvious?? They're looking for someone to be King of all the Wild Things and lead the Wild Rumpus!

leading the wild rumpus . . hmmm, that definitely qualifies as a job description I would like . . .

I have no idea, but, I do love scary dreams. A mouse living in your car? Maybe the nuisance of getting lost on your trip to the gallery?

The mood thing might not be pms, but you can still (always) blame it on hormones, especially if this time it's good...

Hmm...those are powerful animals (except for the mouse). Maybe you are subconsiously feeling powerful, but aren't ready to let it out - hence, the mouse. In any event, the mouse is gone, hurray! Am I making any sense? :o)

Oo, oo...ask me, ask me (hand waves in the air)... I love to interpret dreams. Can you give me more detail than just that there was a black panther in it?

Well, that'll teach me to read more carefully; I thought it said "a mouse that lived in my ear for a week", which would have been (a) noticeably less comfortable and (b) a damn sight harder to get a bag of pretzels into.
The multifarious manifestations of fauna trying to get into your house/car can only be some sort of metaphor for your rejection of urban life - the wild is embracing you, embrace it back, let it in. Either that, or you're going to get eaten by something hairy with big teeth.
