Hold On

Anyone that knows me knows I love lobster. In fact I just had some about a week ago. But I've never dreamt about one. I can't remember a lot about the dreams - I know if you don't recall your dream within about 5 minutes you forget almost all of it - but I do remember that I kept feeling the back of my head and thinking there was a knot or something in my hair, and it turns out, it was a lobster. Well, half of a lobster. The tail was missing. I thought it was dead, but when I finally tried to remove it, it pinched my thumbs with it's claws. And I tried pulling the claws off and they wouldn't come off. And at some point around there the dream ended or I woke up, not really sure which.

So, I guess breaking this down, the first thing I noticed was my hair:

To see hair in your dream, signifies sexual virility, seduction, sensuality, vanity, and health. It is indicative of your attitudes. If your hair is knotted or tangled, then it is symbolic of uncertainty and confusion in your life. You may be unable to think straight.

And then the lobster, in my hair:

To see a lobster in your dream, represents strength and persistence. You will hold your own ground and overcome minor difficulties and problems.

So, there is strength and persistence - the lobster - in the uncertainty and confusion of my life - my knotted hair. There was an element of shock when I realized there was a lobster on my head. I wish I remember how it got there.

I wonder what it means that the lobster was attacking me, and I was trying to destroy it - literally rip it apart.
