9.0 Machine or Telephone Malfunctions

Definition: You dream of trying to operate some mechanical equipment when it
malfunctions. Many such dreams involve telephones, with the dreamer having
trouble dialing, getting disconnected, or making a faulty connection. Other
machines jam or break, or in some cases become actively malevolent.

Examples:
o I'm talking with my boyfriend when the line goes dead.
o There was a garbled message on the answering machine from my (dead) father--never did understand that man.

   
9.5. Operating Machine or Telephone Easily

    Conversely, dreams in which we make easy, clear connections or machines that operate smoothly suggest improvements in our emotional connections. Many of the dreamers who participated in my study of dreams during bereavement reported dreams of clear connections with their deceased parent, spouse, or child. In these cases, the dreamers received messages in the dreams that dramatically helped them cope with their losses.
