Your thoughts on a recurring dream?

I've had this recurring dream for the past few years - I walk into a bathroom and try to turn on the light, it flickers for a second and then it goes out. And as soon as the lights are out, I get a really bad feeling like something's not right. The dream is never exactly the same: the bathroom is usually the one in my house, but sometimes it's a public restroom... sometimes there's more to the dream than just going into the bathroom, but other times that's all I remember about it. Sometimes it's during the day, a lot of the times it's at night, but it's always about lights not coming on in the bathroom.

Just wanted some of your opinions on what it could mean.

    This appears related to some personal uncertainty about some of life's basics.

    Do you have some low-level but persistent anxiety about your 'safety net' in some way? This type of dream seems to stem from a subconscious concern that you will find yourself wanting for a foundational part of your life, something you depend on - more annoying than say, life-threatening, for sure. But, something that would leave you uncomfortably exposed and perhaps disoriented in your personal life.

    Take a look at your life for unsettled or unsettling matters that may leave you with a nagging bit of doubt about basic security. Find that, deal with it forthrightly and you may nip this dream.

    All the best to you for lighter and happier dreams.
