oFTEN A DREAM CAN LINK A GREAT DEAL TO A QUOTE. tHINK LATERALLY ABOUT IT. aLLOW ANY THOUGHTS TO ENTER YOUR HEAD. what could it mean?

Well, no one's really made me any offers per say. An offer to be assistant manager to a play, I had to turn down, but no offers other than that. At least, that I can think of.

[Them as in both, just as equally] I was fearful that they'd snatch my soul. I expected them to not try to take my soul, but had a distinctly mild feeling that they wouldn't leave me even if I wouldn't give it up.

[At first I thought the angel was on my side, but soon after I could tell he was just like the demon.]

I hope that helps in interpreting... thanks...

I'm not getting far with this. Still think they represent values or sets of values and you feel you have to sign up to either or both. But you lose your freedom (your soul). It's like you're thinking "there has to be a third way".

The setting makes them sound very powerful. But they haven't got you yet. It's probably something you're battling with irl, but I don't think they represent anything tangible. Like you're trying to work out what's right (and wrong) but in fact it's not like that. Life just ... is. Vague, but perhaps you could see if this "template" works in your current life context?

Posts: 182 Well the offer does not have to be real. It maybe an offer that you wish people to make. Dreams link to thoughts and they are pretty abstract. Think of quotes like the godfather film... "I am going to make him an offer he cannot refuse". They are not so much offers in the sense that we normally use that word. Its a much deeper usage. Its about negotiating perhaps... that could link to compromise. See how such themse were important AT THE TIME OF THE DREAM.

Oh, sorry, I misunderstood. [Hate to say it, never saw the Godfather] Well, the odd thing is, I was content at the time in my dream. I really saw nothing to gain, and even if I did, to lose my soul... it didn't sound like a worthy compesnation. I just plain out didn't want to make a deal.

It sounds pretty wokrable with my current life's events, I'm pretty much lost ever since about a week ago, lots of things been going on. [Suddenly liking a person, people confessing to people]
