Thanks very much for your comment, John. I think that this is another very common dream motif, and in some sense related. To be sure, it would be necessary to look at your dreams close up and in detail, something that might be more suited to a somewhat less public setting than here.
However, just from your description, I do notice something that I think is important and noteworthy: A bus is a very collective means of transportation. And what is revealing to me is you are saying that instead of trying to catch the bus — my unconscious is likely telling me to not bother with it. In my view, that would be right John. Thank you very much for your comment, Amanda. This is also a very striking dream, with a number of prominent motifs. I wonder what the hill might correspond to in your life at this time? This river is very interesting, too. Without knowing any details of what might be going on in your life at this time, of course, I wonder if there might be some kind of transition that you might be confronting, one that might be rather intimidating, or scary.
I realize that you might be very reluctant to put personal details out on to the internet, but if you would like to share more about the dream in an email, or here in the comments section, I would be happy to explore more aspects of this dream with you. Wishing you all the very best, Amanda! Thanks for your comment, Alecia. To answer exactly what this dream means for you, I would need to know more about you and your life. I note that the dream has you working out of town.
I would wonder, is this something that you actually do? If so, what is the impact of this work away from home upon your life? Also, is the town in the dream the town in which you actually live, or, is it a creation of the dream? If it is a real place, I would probably wonder how you actually feel about this town. I also note the tornado as a recurring theme. If you were my client, I would want to learn as much as I possibly could about what this tornado might represent in your life. Those are some of the things I would want to open up with you in trying to understand this dream, but it would all be within the context of getting to know you, and understanding what it is that is going on in your life as a whole.
I hope that this gives you a little bit of an idea of the approach that depth psychotherapy might take to your dream. Again, thanks very much for your comment, Alecia! I have a dream every night of not being able to get something accomplished, mostly dealing with the job I retired from. I am trying to do the work but things keep happening or I am on the subway and cannot get home or too work. I feel lost and confused and cannot remember which way to go. I never do get there or get things completed.

Insead I wake up with anxiety and exhausted.. Thanks you for your comment, Ann, and for sharing your dream. To understand the meaning of this dream, I believe you would need to do some personal work on it, perhaps in the course of analysis. It would seem to me that the overarching question would likely be, what is it that might need completion at this time in your life?
Thanks again, and all the best! I have had a recurring dream of trying to get to my childhood home but being blocked in various ways. The last time I dreamt this though I was one block away and there did not seem to be any obstacles. Thanks for your comment, Laural. This is a striking dream.
I wonder what you might be trying to get back to in your childhood home?
