I was in the bathroom doing something. I can't remember what it was, but had something to do with grooming myself in some way. The bathroom was very dark. Then all of a sudden it became light and my dad was there. It surprised me. He had arm braces on. He was squaring down with is back against the bathroom door. When he stood up is when I saw the arm braces. He told me he loved me and asked for a hug. But he wanted me to hug him from behind. He was wobbly and unstable. He said he couldn't feel his feet. Somehow i ended up hugging him on the front and we started dancing. I was leading. I was supporting his body. We did lots of turning. I made us dance a little faster than he wanted to, but my dad was ok with it. Then all of a sudden we were turning and looking into the bathroom mirror, but the reflections I saw were not us. They were ugly fat blobby caricatures of us. My reflection was excessively fat. Mad dad told me not to look and turned me so I couldn't see. We ended up dancing in a large room vacant of furniture for a little longer and then I woke up.
This dream may symbolize unresolved issues or emotions related to your relationship with your father. The dark bathroom could represent hidden or repressed feelings, while the sudden light and appearance of your father could suggest a sudden realization or confrontation with these emotions. The arm braces and wobbly, unstable state of your father could represent his vulnerability or weakness, and his request for a hug from behind could symbolize a desire for support or comfort. The dancing and turning could represent a desire for a closer, more harmonious relationship with your father, with you taking the lead and supporting him. However, the distorted reflections in the mirror could suggest that your perception of your relationship with your father may be distorted or influenced by negative self-image or insecurities. Your father’s warning not to look and the shift to a vacant room could symbolize a need to let go of these negative thoughts and focus on the positive aspects of your relationship with your father.
