The Intruder and the Decorative Table: A Dream Analysis
I had a dream that i was in my house and someone I knew snuck in and surprised me. He was holding a wood decorative table and he was upset that I was selling it for $50. I think he felt entitled to it and was mad I was selling it. I told him he could take it and leave. I felt unsafe with him. I started to walk to the front of the house and walked though an office where another close friend was on a conference call. I signed him that I needed help as I passed through the office but he didn't get up. The intruder followed me into the kitchen where the door was, and I just started screaming at him to leave. He was acting confused and I just screamed and screamed for him to get out. My best friend's mom came into the kitchen with us while we I was screaming at him. I woke myself up with a scream.

This dream may symbolize feelings of vulnerability and invasion of personal space. The intruder represents someone who is trying to take something from you, possibly in a forceful or entitled manner. The wood decorative table could represent a prized possession or something of value that you are being pressured to give up. The fact that the intruder is upset about the price suggests that you may feel undervalued or taken advantage of in a waking life situation. The presence of a close friend on a conference call could symbolize a lack of support or assistance from those you trust. The best friend’s mom may represent a maternal figure or a sense of protection and safety. Your scream could be a manifestation of pent-up frustration and a desire to assert yourself and protect your boundaries. This dream may be a reflection of current conflicts or power struggles in your waking life.
