As noted previously, I respect CG Jung but I am very careful when reading later "Jungian" theory, where there is endless possibilities of what Jung was trying to say. Imo dreams can be the unconscious emptying the daily garbage picked up without realising, can be brought on by rich food(!) but very occassionally can be profound. I have powerful, colourful dreams (may be my diet?!). Last week in a dream a man spoke to me and said "jungfrau". Much research ensued. Anyone who knows of CGJ will understand the importance of that word.

Perhaps you should try some soybean milk and tofu for a week or two...

Probably you should look into scientology. Xenu may be able to help you with that - (for a price, of course)...

Depending on the context of your dream, to see fire in your dream can symbolize destruction, passion, desire, illumination, purification, transformation, enlightenment, or anger. It may suggest that something old is passing and something new is entering into your life. Your thoughts and views are changing. In particular, if the fire is under control or contained in one area, then it is a metaphor of your own internal fire and inner transformation. The dream may be a metaphor for someone who is "fiery". It represents your drive, motivation, and creative energy. Alternatively, the dream may be warning you of your dangerous or risky activities. You are literally "playing with fire".
To dream that you are being burned by fire, indicates that your temper is getting out of control. Some issue or situation is burning you up inside.
To dream that a house is on fire, indicates that you need to undergo some transformation. If you have recurring dreams of your family house on fire, then it suggests that you are still not ready for the change or that you are fighting against the change. Alternatively, it highlights passion and?the love of those around you.
To dream that you put out a fire, signifies that you will overcome your obstacles in your life through much work and effort. If you are setting a fire to something or even to yourself, then it indicates that you are undergoing some great distress. You are at the brink of desperation and want to destroy something or some aspect of yourself.Dream symbols.com

I had a dream in where a Mcdonald's was being robbed.I was then chased by the robber.Then my dream took weird turn, I was running in a dark alley.The darkness was suffocating, I can fee the darkness squeezing me empty.Afterwards I am in a house and their are boxes everywhere and a lady wants to babysit their child.The dream then ends.
What does it mean.

To be brutally honest, I don't think that Freudian or Jungian dream analysis is valid at all. It's "BULLSHIT!" as Penn & Teller would so eloquently describe it, at least IMHO. YOUR dreams occur only inside the theatre of YOUR own mind and nowhere else. They are firmly locked in the confines of your own skull. There are no universal interpretations to any elements of anyone's dreams. If dreams can be interpreted, they must be matched and compared to what is going on in real life. Maybe then you can figure out a real meaning.
Also, what would be the proper way to interpret any piece of art? There are no universalisms in that either...
I'm sorry to have pissed on your party, d.
