Hi Lauralee,Thank you for submitting your dream to G21 for interpretation.
CHURCH: Jesus Himself never used a church, so a church is symbolic of one's own spirituality or perhaps the outer appearance to others of one's spirituality. Some people only go to church to "keep appearances," and aren't practicing true Christianity of non-judgement etc. So you would need to evaluate your own viewpoints on spirituality...what beliefs do you now hold? Do you believe in an afterlife, or a Higher Consciousness than our own? You may need a point of spiritual reference in your life to feel complete, as most people do. Seek your own path, and go with what feels right to you.
BROTHER, MOM: your brother and mother are both symbolic of aspects you mirror in your own Self.
Every person that appears in a dream is supposed to represent an aspect of Self, and not actually be about that other person at all. Rather, it is a quality or characteristic about that person that your dream is focusing on. Try to think about what aspect(s) this could be. It can be something you admire and wish to emulate, and incorporate into your own personality, or it could be a more negative characteristic that you may dislike intensely in your waking life, but which is telling you something about yourself and your beliefs, judgements, attitude. It could be a call to alter your thinking in some manner, in order to be more open-minded and accepting of this aspect in their personality. The other person in your dream is always mirroring something back to you about YOURSELF. Try to discover what that something is, and go from there.
Try to figure out what characteristics you may mirror in this person (describe them as if to a stranger, and there you have their oustanding characteristics or features.) and then apply them to yourself in the context of this dream.
JUMPING OUT CHURCH WINDOWS AGAIN & AGAIN: A window is symbolic of interdimensional awareness, freedom and expanded perception. Since you keep jumping out of them, you may be fighting a constrained belief system, or starting to deal with confusion about your own inner spiritual beliefs. What you may see as restraints may actually be freedom. The choices are yours and yours alone. Has anyone been trying to force their own ideas upon you? Not all representatives of a religion are worthy of being so...they can actually do more damage than good in getting a person to listen to spiritual views, due to their own prejudices or misinformation. So, it is best not to judge a religion or belief until you educate your SELF by choosing what materials to read, and the people to interview. You owe that much to yourself, not to allow some dork's bad impression to ruin your current or future belief system, if this is relevant. :) It's your own inner peace that matters!
Now for my usual disclaimer....please take any interpretations as suggestions to sift through and "try on for size," and only keep what seems to "fit" in your situation. If it feels true to you, go with your intuition. If it doesn't feel true, or off-kilter in some way, then explore further for answers that do seem to fit. My interpretation isn't meant to be therapy or professional advice. But I sure hope it helped!
