The Plunge
Dream
I am looking down, from above, on a multi-storey carpark. The carpark is located in Canberra, but it overlooks the Sydney Harbour. There is a very steep ramp that goes straight down to the ground. Someone is driving a white van down this ramp. The driver loses control and the van races down the slope and ends up in the harbour. Hundreds of people run into the harbour to rescue the driver, but the water is only ankle deep.

Dream notes and associations
I have had other dreams where the locations are a mix of Canberra and Sydney. So I am wondering if this is a reference to my younger years, late teens to early 20s.
I appear to be hovering above the top level of the carpark.
My feelings throughout the dream and on awakening
It was scary, but I wouldn't classify it as a nightmare. exhilarating,
The next morning, I woke up thinking about my incident with the ex-catholic priest, and I wondered if this dream is related to that. The moment the van starts to drive down the ramp felt like the moment when the ex-priest asked me to take my clothes off so he could give me a massage, and I complied. Not sure what the end of the dream signifies. see comment in my next dream, On Show.
Hi Lindsay, yes there’s something puzzling about the end of the dream where the person is being rescued but the water is only ankle deep. As if whatever this dream is referring to is not an actual emergency or not as serious as it seems.
