The Fear of Leaving the Familiar: A Dream of Building and Bears
Building a settlement, it took many years to build. Finally completed, leave the safety of the settlement to go for a walk. See large jet black bear with a skull instead of a head far in the distance. Worry for safety, then worry for settlements safety. Turn around to see how far away I am from settlement. Turn back to the creature, see it next to me. It terrifyingly jolts me awake.

The dream of building a settlement over many years symbolizes the effort and dedication put into creating a safe and secure environment for oneself. However, the decision to leave the comfort and safety of the settlement to go for a walk represents a desire for exploration and adventure. The appearance of a large jet black bear with a skull instead of a head in the distance signifies a looming threat or danger that is far from reach. This could represent a fear or worry for one’s own safety or the safety of the settlement. Turning back to see the distance from the settlement reflects a sense of hesitation or doubt about the decision to leave. When the creature suddenly appears next to the dreamer, it represents the fear of the unknown and the unexpected. This dream may suggest that the dreamer is facing a difficult decision or situation in their waking life, where they must balance the desire for adventure with the fear of leaving the familiar and safe. It may also indicate a fear of the consequences of taking risks and stepping out of one’s comfort zone. The dream serves as a reminder to carefully consider the potential risks and consequences before making any major decisions.
