Dream Of An Ambulance Crash Options

Ok, everyone,

Usually I don't post my dreams as I've a pretty good idea what they mean. This one, however, was odder than usual.

I dreamt I was sitting in my living room with my cat, watching TV, when suddenly an ambulance comes plowing through my backyard and into the house. I and my cat got out of the way in time, but in my dream, the ambulance plowed through the back wall thereby destroying my TV and its stand, into the couch, and came to rest *in* the weight-bearing wall in the center of the house (my house has few interior walls, but those that are there hold up the roof). There were paramedics inside driving, and no one in the house was injured, but that's all I could see before I woke up.

Now, something like this could not possibly be a precognitive experience like a lot of my other dreams for the following reason: in my dream, my backyard was open desert. In *reality,* for something to plow into my house from that angle would require the vehicle to go through the neighbour's house, down a hill, over a 50-yard, 10 foot deep fake lake of the sort beloved by AZ developers, up another hill/flight of stairs (it's how my yard's landscaped--two levels), across my swimming pool, and *THEN* into the house. Last I checked, for something to hydroplane that much they've got to have skids like a seaplane. Any wheeled vehicle'd sink like a rock. So...

In any case, I googled the dream symbols and while I was able to figure out that my dream meant some kind of momentous change was coming (DUH!!), the jury's out as to whether or not this change will be positive or negative. I'm leaning toward the 'traumatic but positive' rather than 'utter disaster' because that's what my gut says.

Anyone have any ideas?

Well it sounds like for the most part you already know what it means but I'll give it a whirl and maybe it'll help you discover something new.

These things are comforting. They represent things like security, stability, peace of mind.

An ambulance represents a state of emergency, a need for urgent care, something that needs attending to that is very important. The fact it plowed through your house and ruined your sense of security and peace of mind indicates this is something important that is bothering you in a profound, or at least abrupt way.

An ambulance can also indicate emotional issues. The severity of which only you would really know. It might be major, maybe not - most likely somewhere imbetween.

You mentioned a desert landscape outside your house. Deserts represent isolation, loneliness. The most logical answer to the over all meaning of the dream is that pressumably you feel lonely or isolated from your peers (perhaps you are missing that special someone, or never found them, maybe you're not as well liked as you wish you could be, maybe your family has been distant) and its affecting your personal sense of security, maybe your self esteem too. But I think the desert actually represents introspection. Its not that you are isolated from the world, but that the issue of what ever the ambulance represents is affecting only you and only you can figure out what it is.

In away you dream could be interpreted as a premonition. That something big and disturbing will happen in an abrupt way. But because you know an ambulance can't ruin your house in real life - the house in this case is you as a whole - means that what ever may come won't be the end of the world or nothing you can't deal with.

As much as you look towards the future I would advise not to try to change it because you may only cause the future to happen the way it was meant to, or worse you could make the situation worse. Also as much as you look outward for answers realize the majority of them are within you already. I think introspection would be good for you. And if you are isolated and lonely I'd follow Valkyries advice.
