I enjoyed reading your interpretation! Actually, I just left a comment on your blog, so I won’t repeat what I said on here. :)

Also, thank you for the link to your site. I will add it to my list of dreamy sites to go to when I need help with interpretations. :)

Thanks for mentioning A Dreams-Teller’s site on your post.

I think this dream is about the need to take control of a situation that is creating conflict in your life.

Games (I assume the game in the dream was sporting event since it was in an arena) and war have similar connotations. A game is a make-believe war, in which one side tries to beat the other. In deams, both can represent conflicts in your life, although a war is clarly more serious.

Since the game imagery turns into war imagery – arena becomes war zone, football players becomes soldiers – your unconscious can be telling you that the conflict you are experiencing is more serious than you want to admit (it’s not all fun and game; someone can get killed.) The soldiers being drunk is also a sign of not paying attention to the seriousness of the situation.

Construction can represent growth, but if it was blocking your path to get across the road, then it can stand for something that is standing the way of your progress. The fact that it is in the process of being build can signify that this problem will get bigger if you don’t address it.

Having to wait for cars to go by is another sign that you aren’t taking control. You are allowing others to go past you while you stay in the same spot.

“Fast food” is easy to get, and might taste good at first, but it’s not very healthy nutritionally. A short-term solution. So going to a fast-food place is taking the easy way out, not fully dealing with the problem.

However, salads are often associated with things that are good for you, although not particularly tasty (really depends on how you feel about salads), so choosing a salad is a sign that in the end, you need to (or want to) to do what’s right, even if isn’t that pleasant for you.

Houses in dreams usually represent yourself – all of your unconcious and conscious memories, all of your experiences. Going to your old house, and then the house you lived in before, is a sign that you are searching into your past to see if you can gain some guidance on how to deal with things in the future.

You say you were in your parents house. Were your parents actually in the dream? Your parents can also be a sign that you are looking for guidance. (Depends, of course, on what your relationship with your parents was like in real life.)

The person who asked you how to get to the arena symbolized the part of yourself that wants to understand how the conflict started and how it can be resolved. A bathroom can represent the need to cleanse yourself of a situation, but you don’t go to the bathroom (just forget about everything) . Instead, some part of you wants to spend more time working on the problem (get to the arena.)
