Albino Scorpions

Dream:

In the middle of an extremely large bathroom, I undressed next to two rows of sinks and lay down. I felt a sting in one of my limbs, and when I looked up I saw two albino scorpions had climbed out of the pile of clothes. At first I thought it was a lobster. When I decided it wasn't, I wasn't sure if the scorpion had stung me with its tail or pincers. Z, the orgasmic meditation practitioner from years back, came to me and I explained what happened, but she reassured me.

Interpretation:

Since I explained to Z that I was trying to relieve sexual repression I'd subjected myself to during puberty, the scorpions probably represent some sort of trauma. The size of the bathroom refers to feeling exposed. Last time I saw an image of an albino animal, it was a whale. A few days ago, S and I found a white piece of chemical waste on the beach and she thought it was spermaceti, a substance excreted by sperm whales, so the scorpions might actually refer to sperm. During my period of sexual repression, I thought orgasm was psychologically harmful, hence the scorpions envenoming me, like Cupid's arrows, and my denial of being bitten by a scorpion might also refer to my denial of having a sexuality. Perhaps saying that I was sexually repressed was just another way of denying my sexuality, and the only reason I told Z was as an excuse to remain unresponsive.
