Symbolic Dreams?

A few years ago I had a dream, and I cannot, to this day, fugure it out.  I was in a hurry to get somewhere.  Three enities approached me.  They told me they were there to take me to my wedding.  I told them I was not even engaged.  They said yes I was.  One of them raised their hand.  I fell to the ground.  When I awoke I had been bathed and dressed for the occasion.  A woman was in the room with me.  Asked her when had my "engagement" been arranged.  She answered "long before I was born".  At that point a knock was heard at the door leading into the room.  A mans voice asked if I was decent.  The woman said I was and told me my betrothed was here.  I rose from my seat, took a deep breath and turned to see Thanatos himself enter.  I told him he was not what I had expected.  He gave me a bouquet(sp?) of lilies, and said I was not what he expected either.  We were married.  At that point I woke up.  How, pray tell, I am supposed to interpret this.  At a bit of a loss here.  Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Swordsis, you and I have been hashing this one over for years and I am as much at a loss as you are. Maybe some of our other forum members will have some insight on it.

It could have something to do with the idea of predestination, I can't help but think the idea of having a wedding arranged without your knowledge is significant.  If so, it might be that you think or you fear that your choices have been/are made for you?  or that there may be a loss of control?

As for the choice of groom, it might indicate you and he are supposed to be close, although not necessarily romantically (forgive my ignorance, is Thanatos your god, or someone's usename, or what?) or that you think you should be, maybe?

That's all I can think of, at the moment...Hope it's helpful.

I think maybe it is a representation of your understanding of the inevitability of death, and the recognition that death does not necessarily mean the end of existence. That death can mean the beginning of a whole new experience, much as marriage means the beginning of a whole new relationship with life.
