On the interpretation of dreams

What’s it mean, again, when you dream of being pinned down beneath a freight train, trying to burn it up with thermite packed around the wheels you are attempting to ignite with a wallet, but you can’t get the wallet lit, just the corners of the money sticking out, and Saddam Hussein and sons have surrounded you in Jeeps in which they are standing, shooting?

    the root of this dream lies in a sense of overwhelming frustration and anxiety over separation from your inner power to heal, understand, comprehend, smooth a situation, or effectively solve a conflict. the person is not whole and feels disconnected from self after a series of disappointing and frustrating events in daily life, culminating in a trapped feeling of absolute powerlessness, thrust into a somewhat comical situation as if mocking one’s own reaction to such monumental aggravation.
