I had two crazy detailed dreams this night, but this was the second one.
I'm pretty sure I am a man in this dream for some reason. At the start of this dream I somehow win this prize and get to stay in this luxury hotel, where each level is more luxurious. I start at level one, the ground floor of the hotel, which is very nice, but by the end of the dream I am on level three, which is crazy luxurious and exclusive.
A period of time passes in between the 'transitions' or 'promotions' between the levels, and in this time I encounter people who want to kill me. I encounter an old lady who makes a deep cut all the way around the base of my left thumb, and she was certain it would make me bleed out. She was so certain, she did not stop me when I escaped. I survived by putting pressure on the wound, which made it heal very quickly, miraculously in fact.
On my way out getting away from the old lady, I was attacked by three guys in the hallway, but this mysterious woman helped me fight them off. One of the guy was wearing two t-shirts shirts, one over the other, and for some reason I needed the top shirt, so I took it off him.
It was after this event that I was promoted to the third level, but when I got there my room was not ready yet because someone was still in there.
While waiting for my room, I went to dinner with the two hotel executives (both were men in suits) and the mysterious woman.
After this I checked out of the hotel saying I'll be back in a few days.
I am a trainee taking the Dream Stories Interpretation Mentoring class and I am interpreting your dream to complete one of my assignments.
You are being called for a season of rest as you are being overwhelmed and prone to several hinderances and attacks by the enemy. Jesus is going to help you overcome the battles and will meet you at the peak of your rest. Don't get complacent because there is a time to rest and there is a time to work.

Thank you! I think this makes quite a bit of sense, I feel like there might be a bit more to it, but i’m not sure.
@IvanStyle Good job. As the dreamer indicates there is a bit more to this dream, but you have addressed one of the core issues.
Hi @Michelle Steenkamp I am a trainee taking the Dream Stories Interpretation Mentoring class and I am interpreting your dream to complete one of my assignments.
I believe that you are in a time of transition, where knowledge and wisdom is growing and can continue to increase. However, there are hinderances - it could be your own doubt - that are trying to stop you from doing/being what you were born to do/be. Know that there are forces far greater than these hinderances that can and will provide rest, encouragement and nourishment during this time.
Blessings.

@Jeanne Barnes Good job here and while there is a bit more that can be drawn out of this dream, your interpretation addresses the heart of it.
Thank you, I think these interpretations make sense, I suppose I am in a period of transition at the moment between two things. I have been facing some really difficult challenges within my young adults connect group that I am leading in the last week especially. A lot of them are facing intense personal struggles, and helping them process them through these is taking some time and a lot of energy. I find this quite emotionally draining, and at times very overwhelming. I do feel that God is growing me a lot during this season, and that the things He is teaching me to handle now through this are going to be exactly what I need later on my journey.
Hi Michelle @Michelle Steenkamp
I am a level 3 student moderator.
I think interpretations by @IvanStyle is very concise and the interpretation by @Jeanne Barnes gave another layer and more meat to your dream
I like to add on the third layer of intepretation. I feel that your dream of pavilion, youth pastor , canyon and this dream are all related after having read your pavilion dream first. I did not know that you were working among the young adults ( not an easy ministry) but this dream now adds to it in that God sees your passion and your spiritual work and is promoting you but the enemy wants to kill off your giftings/anointings to stop you in your track but the Lord is providing angelic /supernatural protection for you and your anointing. The Lord is also saying be patient as you wait for your spiritual promotion that is certainly to come.

@chiacat Thank you, that makes a lot of sense, i can definitely see how these dreams are connected, it’s comforting to know that God is in the midst of all of it with me, and that he is protecting me from the enemy while preparing me for what He wants me to step into.
It’s really cool how much He is speaking to me through dreams the last two weeks, i’ve never had so many dreams before, and i’m trying to learn how to understand them. Hearing how other people interpret them is really helpful!
@chiacat Good job as always!
@IvanStyle, @Jeanne Barnes and @chiacat Here is my additional input for the dreamer.
@Michelle Steenkamp I think the students and student moderator have given you most of this dreams meaning and so all I want to do is add a couple of points that seem important. You mentioned that you felt like you were a man in this dream. This feeling is basically metaphorical for the fact that you have more authority and responsibility than you see yourself as having (this does not mean that men have more of this naturally, but rather that culture over time has taken this approach and thus the metaphor). The second thing I saw that I wanted to point out is the quick healing of your thumb and the taking of the tshirt. The healing of your thumb also indicates that your authority has come under significant attack, but that God has given you the capacity to heal such wounds quickly by pressing into His Word. The three guys and mysterious woman indicate that when you come under attack, Holy Spirit is there to support and protect you and actually provide you with the covering that you are in need of through acts of justice that restore what the adversary has stolen from you.
