Last night I had a dream in which I was purely an observer to the events. I wasn't partaking in the action and not even a character standing by; I was not a part of the 'story' at all.
The dream was about a man who was a highly-ranked servant in a large country manor. He was married, but had an affair with a young model who was visiting the house and he took a bath with her. His wife found out and angrily confronted him. The situation then escalated as the man went completely mad and attacked his wife. He smashed her head into a bookcase several times and she ended up breaking her neck as a result. As she fell to the ground she managed to give him one last kick with her leg and she hit him so badly that he collapsed as well. The woman, lying on the ground, managed to laugh triumphantly since at least he got what he deserved.
Next I saw the man in a wheelchair in the country manor. He ended up paralyzed because of his wife's attack in self defense and he was now taken care of by his employers, the inhabitants of the manor. Despite what he had done, they felt sorry for him. The last I saw in the dream was the man lonely strolling through the manor's corridors in his wheelchair.
What was unusual about this dream is that I was purely an observer 100%, whereas normally I do have at least some kind of active role in the dream's 'story' even if it's just getting acknowledged by the other people in my dream. Here it was like I was watching a movie; I was not actively present in the house myself. The characters (the man, his wife, the model, the employers) also weren't people I personally know in real life. None of their faces were familiar. This is also unusual, since usually I dream of at least one person that I know personally, that actually exists or that I at least know from fiction, be it in the present or from the past. I also usually don't dream about so much violence. It was, all in all, a bit of an odd dream for me to have.
Anyone know how I can interpret this?
