In less than a month, I've had two dreams about twins. The first one was 10/11 and I blogged about it here.

I hadn't given birth to the twins, just had a dream/nightmare(?) that I was going to have them.

Last night I had a dream that I actually gave birth to twins. They were very cute. I don't remember much about the dream except the fact that I enjoyed having babies around and I held and played with them a lot. Anyone who knows me knows that I'm absolutely CRAZY about babies, but I'm done with that whole lifestyle. I felt a need to bring that up because I have friends ask me all the time if we plan to have babies. Ummm, yeah. I'm 44. I'm sooooooooooo done.

I was curious, so I decided to look up twins on a dream analysis site. Here's what I found:

If your dream entails giving birth to twins, or if you are dreaming about baby twins, please see birth . Twins in astrology represent opposites, and we may use this symbolism to explain our dream. The twins could suggest a duality in thoughts, ideas, feelings, or states of consciousness. The details of the dream will give you a clue to whether or not these varying aspects are in harmony or in conflict with each other. The twins could also represent the balance that is extremely important to our emotional and psychological health.

Then I looked up Birth:

If you or your mate are not pregnant, this dream could symbolize new beginnings (i.e. giving birth to new ideas, new ways of living, or a new stage in life). Superstition-based dream interpretations say that giving birth in a dream is a sign of good luck, while multiple births are omens of forthcoming material wealth. <- hey! I like that!

Since I didn't actualy give birth in my dreams, I decided to look up babies:

Many people from time to time will have babies or small children in their dreams. If these newborns are strangers to you, you can assume that they represent you. You are the baby and the dream is telling you something about your development in a particular area of your life. At times of great change and renewal, a baby may appear in a dream and represent your potential and a new beginning. Some of the meaning of the dream may be obtained by considering what the baby looked like and was doing. Generally, babies represent innocence and are symbols of the purest form of a human whose possibilities are endless.

Based on all of this information, I'll play armchair dream analyst:

I have been really enjoying this new phase in my career. It involves web design, PowerPoint design, and lately, graphic design and template design. It was quite an evolution from what I was doing five years ago. What I was doing five years ago had nothing at all in common with what I'm doing now, didn't involve any sort of technology, but I was working for the same employer. I've also really enjoyed doing it as a hobby and have considered making it my "after retirement" career. Of late, I've started wondering if I could turn it into a career before retiring. As in quitting my job and doing this full time. I'm too conservative to do such a crazy thing. I like the idea of having a full time "I can count on having a salary and benefits" type of job. I also happen to really adore what I do and who I work with, so why mess with that?

Now the dreams make sense, well, if I bought into any of that dream analysis stuff. <-I said that for my hubby's benefit because he thinks I have some wacky ideas.
