I think I would still be fascinated by people's tought processes, even with all the inevitable "gotta remember to pick up a quart of milk on the way home from work." I could be wrong though.

No I don't SD, are you gonna enlighten me?
And how about teeth falling out? What's your take on that dream?

[Clodfobble]

Surprisingly enough, I once heard teeth falling out had to do with money, but I can't remember if it meant you would get a lot or lose a lot.

[lumberjim]

I thought teeth falling out was fear of new responsibility

Y'know, this *is* the internet.

Anyhow. First link, "Dreammoods.com", says this:

Teeth
To dream that you have rotten or decaying teeth, forewarns that your health and/or business is in jeopardy. You may have uttered some false or foul words and those words are coming back to haunt you.

To dream that you are brushing your teeth, signifies your level of confidence, struggles and aggressiveness. You need to be more look out for yourself.

Teeth dreams are creepy. I had one once where I looked in the mirror and my teeth were yellow, tiny, pointy things.

Telekinesis, without a doubt.

The amound of havok I could cause with the ability to lift a mere ten pounds is staggering.

Window latches, locks, bra straps...

Freud said flying dreams mean you want to have sex.

But then, this is Freud we're talking about.

I would like the ability to not need anything.

I can and would still want stuff but not actually need anything.

All kind of possibilities.

Traditionally flying dreams are associated with a shamanic calling, but other contextual information of the dream is necessary to really make that distinction.

According to my favorite dream interpretation book, Dreaming with the Wheel by Sun Bear, Wabun Wind & Shawnodese the meaning of flying is:

KEYWORDS: Rapid; goal oriented; transcendent; spiritual; etheric; formlessness.
DESCRIPTION: Flying is moving rapidly. In dreams, this can be in your own body, in some other sort of body, or just as energy rapidly moving. In dreams of yourself flying as a bird or flying with a bird, it is important to note the kind of bird, then either see the entry for that bird or study the habits of that bird to better understand the dream.
COMMON MEANING: literally having an out-of-body experience.
TRICKSTER MEANING: See Flies (keywords are Common, persistent, annoying, tenacious)
TRANSCENDENT MEANING: travelling in your etheric or spiritual body; a pleasant dream in which you feel free and without limits.
HUICHOL TEACHING: travelling to spirit places

Teacher Sun Bear does not have anything to say about "teeth".

(N.B. Sun Bear was a Native American Shaman of the Ojibwe people who went against tradition and accepted students of all tribes, races, and ethnicities. He caught a lot of heat from traditionalists in many tribes, but his vision was that all peoples should be able to share in the ancient wisdom of his people, so that the knowledge may live within all men.)
