Secret suburb
Posted: Sat Oct 24, 2015 2:20 pm
In this dream, I was in a shopping centre. It was an outdoor centre where there were strip shops around the outer edge and car parking in the middle.
Along the left strip of shops, at the end, the shops wound around to the left (inverted L). Along the right set of strip shops, the strips wound around the car park in a zig zag.
There was a gap where the left strip and the right strip came close together forming another little nook with its own car park out the back. (imagine a large square with a small square attached to the top left corner). But you couldn't drive from the large car park into the small nook car park out the back because there was a cement barrier / footpath that you couldn't drive over.
The little car park out the back had its own driveway entry from a main road, but there were no cars using it.
I walked along the left strip to the very end shop, on the corner where the strip wrapped around to the left. I went in there and was surprised at what they were selling. There were no other customers and I was concerned for the business, concerned because their front door face the small carpark that no-one seemed to use. And no-one seemed to be shopping in this store. I was amazed at the variety of house wares that they sold.
Then I asked someone, I think the store owner, if they knew were a particular suburb was. I'd never heard of it, but apparently I needed to go there.
They said, yes, I was right there. It was the suburb directly outside this back carpark. I couldn't believe it! This suburb I needed to find was right next to my suburb and I'd never heard of it. And it was like no-one else had heard of it either.
So I went for a drive and discovered this was an established suburb with nice looking little houses.
I had the feeling that this suburb was almost a hidden place or a parallel universe or something. It was real, but it was like people were blinded to its existence.
I drove along wondering if I should buy a house there.

irl I've had a couple of dreams where there's this secret suburb/area in the same location next to or part of the suburb where I've lived for most of my life.
Any ideas what this might be about? The dream had a strange but positive feel to it.
