My dreamt my mom was a lioness

I dreamt that I was taking a break from class (we were all wizards I think) from a circular leveled dome-ish field. And my mom became a lion. And we went to take a break and go for a walk. Someone else was with us, I think another classmate or friend. Then we decided to take a look at the beach.

It was the feeling that my mom might not have a chance to see it again later. This is likely from the haunting feeling I have that I decided not to take my mom to see the university garden when she came for graduation (because I thought it might be too tiring because she had cancer). So the dream was a alternate choice.

It started to get more dark and ghetto. And then the lease had a loop in front that another person’s animal started to bite on. So I pulled it away, and held my mom (lion) in my arms, and ran back as fast as I could. I liked and enjoyed that feeling, I thought. That she was being protected by me in my arms.

Then I cast a teleportation spell to take us back to the field. There was daylight at the field, and everyone was there, so we couldn’t lie about where we went, since instead of leaving the field, they were watching us via a spell.

Woke up shortly after.

My interpretation is plainly that I miss my mom. But also, that I see her as a strong lioness (strong woman) who was skinny/needed protection in my dream. The duality of strength and weakness that she stood for when she had cancer, though she was super brave. And it was also a dream of redemption to do the things I did “wrong”.
