Can someone try to interpret my dream please?
In my dream I was trying to get away from this creature that stayed outside the door to my house and was trying to break it down even though I had used the lock. Eventually it managed to get through the entrance and came after me. I urged myself to quickly fly out of the house. While in the air, I was able to stay a safe distance from the monster. Very soon the creature laughed at my slight success and told me that I wouldn't be able to keep up because I was heading toward water. Suddenly water appeared out of nowhere and in front of me. I was able to fly over it for a little while but became afraid and fell inside the water. I tried to make myself float but it wasn't working therefore I began to sink down. At that moment I thought that I would allow this to happen but somehow managed to move my feet and floated back up and into the other side of the river. Of course it didn't stop the creature from continuing to chase after me but the rest is too vague for me to determine the outcome. I am not sure whether I was able to negotiate with the monster so it could leave me alone or if it kept on harassing me.

The monster is what I call a "demon." A "demon" is an internal conflict taken form. This monster represents your fears and conflicts. Basicly, you are running from yourself. A house, particulary your own, is symbolic of your safe place inside your head. The fact that the monster is outside and not in means that you were trying to forget or ignore whatever conflict the monster represents. The fact that the monster got in means that you were unable to block whatever you were trying to block and now you are running away from it. There is something in a book I read that may be able to explain the air to you.
"Air links the Earth and the heavens. It is a symbol of the unity of all things. It is what ties all life on this planet together. Nothing can live without air. It is the subtle influence of relationships. The links are not always visible, but they are always present. The element of air is the expansion of the mind. It is learning to control the workings of the mind and to see the links between all life. Birds of prey, especially, teach the lesson of relationships. They help us to understand that there is more than just an earthy aspect to predation. They teach the intricacies of all life, and how to fly to those heights that bring new perspectives on our life and our relationships."
What that is saying is that air connects everything. The fact that you were able to fly for a little bit but fell because you were afraid means that you lost a connection of some kind. Since you fell into water, that connection probably has something to do with your emotions. When you started to sink, that meant that your emotions started to overwhelm you. But you made yourself float to the other side of the river which means that you are somewhat dealing with them right now. If the monster was still chasing you when you woke up, then you are still running away from this conflict. To stop him from chasing you, deal with the conflict the monster represents.

Monster
Dreams about monsters come from repressed emotions. The monster may represent a side of your personality that makes you uncomfortable. This dream often means that you would do well to consider a change of direction, or give up a bad habit that's unhealthy for you.
Hiding
To dream that you are hiding, suggests that you are keeping a secret or avoiding telling the truth. However, you may be getting ready to reveal and confess before somebody finds out.
Lock
Dreams about locks mean you are frustrated and need to express your feelings about a situation in real life.
Flying
Flying dreams are often a very exhilarating and joyful experience. Flying with ease and looking down in the landscape below signifies that you are prepared and on top of a situation, or that you have risen above something that once bothered you. Flying dreams and our ability to control our flight is representative of your own personal sense of power.
Water
Water is the universal symbol for emotions. How water looks and behaves in a dream is very significant. Turbulent, choppy waters, in which a dreamer fears being swamped or drowning, symbolizes that you are being overwhelmed emotionally.
Running
Running in a dream suggests that you are feeling trapped or pressured in a real life relationship.

The creature is some situation you are facing in your life. The house is your life. The water is always indicative of your emotions. It would seem that the creature is some relationship in which you are involved. Perhaps a recent break up. You may feel that this relationship was harmful to yourself. It would seem that there maybe a person you are trying to avoid that is pursuing you who would like to continue the relationship. You appear conflicted as to how to handle the situation and, your emotions are overwhelming. You have been able to rise above your emotions and, apparently have moved on past the feelings you might have had for this person. The sooner you make it clear to this person that the relationship is over the sooner this dream will disappear.

Ha Val. Your dream is very conflicting and positive but yet negative as well. What I mean is that you can change the out come of this dream. You can change it by letting lose the fear that you have covering your heart and allowing you to go into this slump of heaviness, that is why it seem so hard to fly at times. The monster is you mind that is tormenting you. You need to face that fact that what ever it is that you fear the most can get hard at sometimes and it may even fill that it is overwhelming you but you must press forward and not allow your flesh to take control of your mind and not allow the enemy to overthrow you with fear. you need to pray and release what ever it is that you are holding in your heart toward the situation. Remember that Love covers the multitude of sin. You know who you are and what you need to do and that what's going to free you of this burden.
You in the water only represent that you are drowning in your fears and when you let go and let God then will you raise again to be able to sore as you were. Be Blessed. Hit me up if you need further details.

The monster is a part of you that you are afraid of "meeting", a part of yourself you deny, cause it's something you see as negative, and don't want to accept something that seems yucky to you, as a part of you.....so you run from it.
Water is emotion in dreams, and it seems that whatever the monster is symbolic of, is something that upsets you emotionally.
So at first you stay detached (flying in the air), but cannot keep it up and fall into the water (ie, get upset). You tried to make yourself float but that didn't work (denying the emotion), and then sunk. When you decided you would go with sinking (ie, accepted the emotion), that is when you were able to float back up.
As to what about yourself the monster reps, that I don't know. :-)

Well,i am not a fortune teller,but i think that the monster is a great friend of yours(girl/boy).you will know someone or meet someone you know and like you said,in the dream it was chasing you,you will want to be with him/her and in a very crucial moment will save and i believe he/she will stay forever by your side and will be the greatest friend ever.your dream is the total opposite of happiness and friendship,but mostly what you dream about it turns up to happen the opposite way.mail me back if something new happens in your life ,because it can be the beginning of an endless happy dream.

you have a great deal of fear about 'something' (u know what it is in your heart of hearts). (addit. water symbolises emotion in dreams = your fear is of an emotional nature)
this fear is controlling, dominating & is paralysing u.
perhaps you have a difficult choice to make?
fear always creates more fear creating self-fulfilling prophecies.
soon you will say to yourself, "i told you so"...perhaps you already have?
you can't shut or lock it out any longer. you can't run from it either.
but...
you can beat this.
half the battle is won just by being there!
face your fear!
Tell it (& yourself) that it has no control over you, that you determine your outcomes & that 'fear' cannot & will not ever stop you from reaching your goals...
only YOU have that power!
stand your ground, be true to yourself, have faith & trust in God (or what/whomsoever you believe in) & the power of prayer, summon your courage, set your teeth & charge forth!

One interpretation:
Your level of awareness in your dreaming conscious is significant.
Hence, your "monster" is a more versatile sockpuppet.
One part of it seems to be sufficiently self-aware of its inability to move across water. ( http://www.astraldynamics.com/ gives this kind of information.) It also predicts your movement over water.
Hence, your monster is fairly sophisticated, aware, formindable. You are correctly fearful of it, as it apparently works against your better existence.
Would therefore suggest arming your awareness with information and attitudes given in "Emotions: Transforming Fear, Anger and Pain," "Dreams: Exploring the Secrets of Your Soul," and "Sacred Psychology of Change: Life as a Voyage of Transformation," all by Marilyn Barrick, Ph.D.

Sorry. Before I created Jesus, I tried to create an incubus to go down and impregnate Mary, but it turned out to be gay and not interested. This is when I invented the Holy Spirit. Anyway, this incubus looks a lot like Jesus, so that's probably who you saw, not the real Jesus.
