Sole Piercing

So I had a bad dream Halloween night.

Not a nightmare really, not a terrible scary, just very painful.

I dreamt I decided to get a piercing, and for some reason I decided to pierce the bottom of my foot. I remember thinking in the dream "Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time..." when trying to fathom why I had done such a thing. Something passed through my mind about "diamonds on the soles of her feet", when I heard myself wonder out loud, "Now why did I go and pierce my sole, it's so painful!"

I spent the remainder of the dream limping around, barefoot. I couldn't fit my foot in a shoe, I could barely stand to touch the spot I had pierced. I got a glimpse of my (left) foot, and saw a red and swollen lump smack dab in the center of the sole of my foot. It looked as bad as it felt.

And that was that.

I read my dream book, something I rarely put too much stock into, as dream symbols can really only be properly decoded by the person dreaming them. But I was stuck.

So far everything I read about wounded feet, has to do with unpleasant family dealings, separations and endings of family ties. Calamity, humiliation and secrets emerging.

Sounds about right.
