In the dream, I&#8217;m dressed in a traditional Indian wedding outfit, but it&#8217;s in white instead of the usual red. My husband is abusing me. Then the guy I want to be with (but am not with currently because of other obstacles) rescues me and takes me back to his place, where he comforts me. We are intimate, which would be the first time for me. He is the only guy I\u2019ve ever been comfortable with. I&#8217;m happy toward the end of the dream, and I make sure I change my number and don&#8217;t inform anyone that I&#8217;m at his place. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2010\/06\/the-hardest-lesson-to-learn.html\/\" target=\"_self\">What does this dream indicate<\/a><\/strong>?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Hello Radhika,<\/p>\n<p>The white wedding outfit is the crux of the dream\u2019s meaning. White is the color of bridal attire in American tradition, while the style of your wedding outfit is Indian. This points to a conflict inside you between the two paths. It\u2019s possible that embracing a combination of American and Indian traditions in your life would be <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2011\/01\/am-i-on-the-right-path.html\/\" target=\"_self\">a good path for you<\/a><\/strong>. Only you would know for sure.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Obviously you have reservations about marrying the man your family has chosen for you. Whether he would abuse you in waking life is unclear. At the very least, the dream indicates you feel powerless or even victimized by the arranged marriage. Still, in the dream you found the courage to go against your family\u2019s wishes and choose the man you\u2019re comfortable with. What you may need to decide is if you\u2019re willing keep a relationship of your choosing a secret from your family, which would be challenging. Although the dream showed you happy with the guy you like now, I don\u2019t know if this reflects what would happen in reality or if it\u2019s just wishful thinking.<\/p>\n<p>Most important is to get clear about the kind of life that\u2019s right for you.
