Short but sweet.

I had a dream I was sitting at a child sized table where a small practice drum pad was sitting. Across the opposite side of the table was a brown haired little boy of maybe 4 years old.

I picked up some drum sticks and began doing some patterns on the drum pad while the little boy watched. I finally stopped and began to handover the sticks to him and the dream ended.

Passing on the knowledge of how to rhythmically damage everyone's hearing. Kidding! If you're also a musician (FYI, there are some good threads on here about dreaming in various types of music), your passing-to-the-new dream type is probably geared toward your training, analogy-wise. I find that some of the dreams which resonate best with us do so because they "speak" our language/how we feel rather than the often inscrutable layers of imagery and sequences that seem to be in a different context from ours entirely (and so must be carefully analyzed from every angle possible to have a chance of understanding intent). Sometimes a dream is pleasantly straight-forward, in comparison to most, and worth savoring just for that.

Notice that in the dream realm, we can find beauty (poignancy) from simplicity as well as overwhelming complexity, often depending on what our mental state is capable of handling. Cheers.

The little drummer boy comes to my mind...

I am a musician I play multiple instruments. I have not touched an instrument with any purpose in over 15 years...

Sorry for my english..does that mean you have NOT PLAYED?
What instruments do you play?

 

[tommedina79]

I have not played with any seriousness. Like I didn't care about music. I play guitar, bass guitar, and drums.

When music has to do with feelings (my jungian viewpoint) then you neglected those feelings, you played without! Seriousness, right..?
Once i had a lecture about those instruments and we students had to choose..i took the drum!
Go and play a bit and bring those two split anima figures together..play for them🎏

Yeah, the tone I got from what you wrote was a familiarity and understanding of music (I know all about being a "previous" musician, but there really is no such thing). If we have spoken-felt the language, we'll always speak the language, if only in dreams--or have it spoken back to us through dreams, as the case may be. The interpretation is yours to figure out and own, but perhaps it's enough to share that language and once-joy with someone younger who still wants to experience it (or as was hinted at, perhaps that separated/ignored part of yourself needs a reunion). Happy dreaming.

Thank you, I have recently got all all my instruments back from the ex wife. Which also finalized and closed that chapter in my life as well.
