Molly and I were traveling we took we were debating between two paths a super windy long and off the beaten path or a straight through the middle but over water 15 miles path and we decided to take the bridge. as we were going towards that we had to go through a wooded area and all of the sudden, a big ape charged us & the we ended up going off road, into the woods. It slammed the top of the car and then sniffed everywhere and then finally just left so we turned around. We started trying to go the other way was completely overrun with all sorts of different apes , and they were being controlled by humans telepathically and so we again turned around because it was scary, because we weren’t approved to be there and so they were attacking us and then all these people were going in and we tried to warn them what it was like and they were just “oh no, it’ll be fine this is gonna be fun and we’re gonna get to pet and cuddle the apes” and I’ve done what I could to warn you and so Molly and I continued going back out a couple people turned around with us and then we got back to where we had been staying it looked like it had been abandoned for years. The juggle had taken over just overrun and dilapidated looking, and then we were trying to pack all the rest of our shit and figure out where the fuck we could go that was not gonna be overrun by this weird ass thing that was happening , and then came in an ape and there was another person and then they switched like the ape became a person, but it was humanoid but pale and dystopian and they had a device to call reinforcements in or attack us or something so they were like three or four of us they were trying to corral and I started attacking the creature like threw my shoe, a water bottle and then maybe kicked them? They lost control of the machine and lost animation like a puppet and then there was a scramble to figure out putting the machine back together.
The dream may symbolize a fear of being controlled or manipulated by others. The two paths represent a decision between taking a difficult and unconventional route or a more straightforward and familiar one. The ape charging at the car could represent a fear of being attacked or overpowered by someone or something. The wooded area may symbolize a sense of being lost or trapped. The apes being controlled by humans telepathically could represent a fear of being influenced or controlled by others, possibly in a manipulative or harmful way. The abandoned and dilapidated surroundings may symbolize a feeling of hopelessness or despair. The humanoid creature with a device to call reinforcements could represent a fear of being betrayed or attacked by someone close to you. The act of attacking the creature and causing it to lose control may symbolize a desire to take control of your own life and overcome your fears. Overall, the dream may be a reflection of feelings of vulnerability and a need to assert your independence and strength.
