recurring dream
15.f, nevada
i had the worst day of my life yesterday, i think. yeah. i think that pretty much sums it up. and so i went to bed extremely angry and upset, one of my friends had a party yesterday at her house, and her boyfriend said some things that REALLY hurt my feelings & made me really upset (later that night, i tried getting comfort from two of my other guyfriends, who told me i overreact and i'm overly sensitive so that made me even MORE angry even though i knew it's true. it wasn't the best time for those things to have been said, and i didn't even tell them WHAT HE SAID. he could have called me a big fat ugly cow for all they knew!). last night, i had a dream that my friend (who threw the party) was in my room and i was feeling very, very angry. her legs were extended, so her feet were right in front of me. out of nowhere, i pulled out a knife, and started stabbing the bottom of her right foot. i could see the torn skin and the actual wound in her foot, but there was no blood. but the look on her face was a look that she's never given me. a hurt, EXTREMELY irate look. i then went to dreammoods.com and searched for "knife" and "stab." THE DETAILS WERE INCREDIBLE! and EXTREMELY accurate beyond belief.
so. because of this, i wanted to REALLY find out why i have this one recurring dream.
i have guinea pigs as pets. i always have a dream that there's like 20+ guinea pigs in the location that i'm in! like, my first dream was that i was in my living room and i saw my guinea pigs there, but it seemed as though they had SO MANY kids. all the baby guinea pigs looked like my own, and the living room was full of them! another one i had was in a sort of.. abandoned house. i was in an empty, white room and i saw my own little girl guinea pig. but then i saw a TON more in the room! i really wanted to get to the bottom of this, especially since know i am convinced that dreams are the key to figuring out what your true life problems are.
i tried searching "guinea pig" but the answer was EH. like it made SORTA sense, but i feel as though i wouldn't have those dreams IF i didn't have guinea pigs.
can someone tell me what this recurring dream means? and please do not say "you're scared that they're gonna have babies / you want to start a family of your own" cause like i know those are both true but there's something MORE. i rate based on length & how in-depth (detailed) you are in your answer. if you are good at analyzing dreams, please respond to this :) & thank youu.

One thing you need to know: dream analyzing is a theory. It's completely faulty. Sometimes I definitely think it's true--you were probably angry at your friend if she didn't stand up for you or something when her boyfriend upset you, so you dreamed of stabbing her. It doesn't mean you want to stab her, it means you're mad. Or maybe you're not even mad at her but her boyfriend, but she was the one who represented him in your dream or something...
As for your main question, reoccuring dreams usually happen just because they're memorable. I have similar nightmares all the time--they freak me out, so I remember them and dream about them again. Guinea pigs probably don't have any special dream meaning in your dreams--you have guinea pigs so you're going to dream about them, just like you dream about people you know in real life (like your friend). Though some dreams, like the friend one that you listed, really have to do with your life and repressed feelings, some dreams are just dreams.
In psychology, there are two main theories about why we dream. The first is very Freudian and if you're into dream theory I suggest you look Freud up because he has a lot of theories on that and other personality-related things. His theory was that dreams display our repressed feelings, etc. If you're stabbing your friend, you're mad at her. Though you didn't want this answer, Freud would probably say that you're scared your guinea pigs will have babies, or, more likely, that you want to start a family of your own but aren't ready to yet. Though in some cases I agree with Freud (like the friend dream) in this case I'm going to have to go with the other psychological theory--dreams are just dreams. They're your brain's way of storing everything that's happened to you and passed through your mind throughout the day. And so you're going to have random dreams like that, it's common. I hope that that helps!

Sorry that I cant be much help. But when you have these dreams, if you wake up and can remember them, be sure to write it down. Keep a sort of dream log. And be specific! Look up the details like, are there doors or windows? What colors are you wearing? Things like that.
When I meet a boy I think is..different or special, I have the same dream. Im sort of prude and shy I guess as well as picky. So I havent exactly had that special BAM FIREWORKS SPARK PIZAZZ moment. But when I think it could happen, I dream of an old abandoned ice rink. Hes out on the ice and Im either..lacing my skates or stalling. Sometimes I can sort of guess whats going on. Pay attention to your emotions and thoughts when key things happen in dreams.
Lacing my skates, Im almost ready to go. Soo I reallly like this guy but I think I should take it slow. Already skating, having a blast, go for the kill. If the skate doesnt fit [Cinderella much?] Im in for a hard time. I might be stalling, afraid of falling..him with no intention of catching me.
If you get a little tooo concerned with things, maybe see a therapist or something? Theyre sworn to secrecy. Unless theres abuse or killing involved..you know. That should be a given. Lol best of luck!! Sorry its so long :/
