THE DREAM - I dreamt about children being raped by an unknown man. When they went to school many wondered what happened the day before and others knew what happened. The man would follow the children everywhere they went. An odd thing about this dream was how it was in a cartoon form of way.

GUESSWORK The day before the dreamer felt really uneasy because her boyfriend threw her hat on top of a clock which was quite high. Because she was short the only way I was able to get it back was if she jumped for it. He started telling her to jump for it. She started feeling beneath him and not as equals like she usually feel around him.

ASSOCIATIONS AND SYMBOLIC MEANINGS
1. Rape can be associated with any emotions that link to the act of rape. If the dreamer felt humiliated and dominated (especially by a man) then this could be a symbol for that.
2. Cartoons can be associated with anything similar in nature. A cartoon is joke like and pretend - not completely real. The situation the day before was joke like.

DREAM ANALYSIS In guesswork the dream was linked to the situation which happened the night before. The dream deals with the following themes
- feeling humiliated
- a joke like situation

If you weave together the different themes you find that they could capture this thought that the dreamer was thinking at the time-"My boyfriend was really horrible to me yesterday. He made me jump to get my hat back. It made me feel beneath him. I know it was only a joke but I hated it."
