      Interpretaion Help Please (long)

      First post on the board, or any dream related board. Let me start of by saying I have had 4 dreams in my life that I can remember every detail of. One of these had tremendous meaning and was when I had avascular necrosis of the hip from a bad motorcycle wreck. I had a dream of my grandfather who had passed away one year previous. I was at his old house and he was down in the closet tightening up leaky pipes. When I asked what he was doing, he said he was fixing everything up and everything was fine. Even though it was supposed to take another 6-9 months for my hip to heal, I called the doctor the next day for a bone scan, certain the dream meant my hip was fixed. He was reluctant but I was paying for it so I got one the next week. Long story short, the scan revealed my hip was healed. I suspect it was miracle-like (the doctor couldn't explain how it had healed so fast) and that was the message to me that it had taken place.

      I will say I am a sceptic. I am highly educated, strongly religous, and prophetic dreams don't really fit into by belief system. I don't believe in ghosts, ufos, etc, but there is no doubt that that dream was different than almost any other dream I've had. I've had two others I won't bore you with which I'm sure had some meaning that I either missed or it will have meaning later on in my life.

      This weekend however, I had one with so much imagery and again at my grandfathers house that I know there must be a meaning because of the power of this dream. It is as follows (In parenthesis I will put any explainations as to why it may have meaning or how it differed from real life):

      I was in the back of my grandfathers garden where he used to have a compost pile. It was surrounded by a crumbling wall of bricks. (IRL it was white walls of asbestos.) There was a short brick path along the back of the garden that I followed. As I was moving along a white, albino frog or toad (there were lots of toads around his garden but no albino ones) crawled across the path, stepped down into the dirt, stood up with its front legs raised like arms in a surrendering pose or raising his arms in power and froze in that position like a statue. I looked beyond the frog and there a small altar with runes on it. On the alter layed out in rows like a sacrifice were pieces of squid and maybe fish. I wasn't scared at all by this dream. It was just very puzzling like a riddle.

      I've racked my brain as to what this could mean. I know it may mean nothing according to dream books, but I am certain there is a meaning there for me to find. Any ideas?

      A) I'm guessing your hip was never broken, even if it felt like it.

      B) You don't need to worry about boring us with your other dreams, it's what we're here for.

      C) This sounds like a spirituality dream. The frog may represent it's metamorphosis from tadpole, and is white to represent goodness, perhaps a good spirit. The alter is clearly religion based and the runes may be nonchristian, such as a nature-based germanic pagan religion. Was the frog facing you or the alter?
      I'm guessing the brick path is your clear minded path in life of individual thoughts & ideas. The squid may be a threatening greed from deep within you that is now sacrificed, and the fish would be deep insights.
      Overall it seems that you have changed inside and become more spiritual, especially about death (hence your grandfather and the compost.) You feel close to nature and believe in an afterlife.
