I dream that my late mother is sitting on the floor in front of the home altar. Holding the ancestral tablet, she wipes the altar. I exclaim, "This is not to be moved!!", but mother does not respond and continues to wipe. The end.
In the dream, I didn’t realize that my mother had gone. I often understand the meaning of my dreams only upon waking. In several dream visitations, it was clear that my mother had passed away. Only in a few of them did it feel like she was still alive; I'm very curious as to this difference which manifests as subtle feelings in the dreams.
夢到已故的母親,坐在家裡佛桌前的地板上,抱著祖先牌位的神龕正擦拭著 。夢中的我驚呼 “這個不行亂動耶!!”, 但母親沒回應繼續擦拭著,結束。
夢裡,並沒有意識到母親已經走了,常常都是醒來回想才明瞭夢境的意思,而在數個被托夢的夢境中,幾乎都很清楚母親已經走了的事實,只有少數的托夢是覺得母親還活著,這種微妙感讓我很好奇為何有這樣的差異。
