Bears, salmon and honey

[Erick1770]

I was in a place near a stream. I was standing in front of a table with several glass jars filled with honey. The table had many broken glass pieces from the damaged jars. All the honey had mold because the jars didn’t have lids.
The strangest part of the dream was when I saw one of the jars that caught my attention the most and was the first one I picked up. It was a jar shaped like a tusk (like from an elephant or a mammoth), and it also had moldy honey. I tried to stand it upright, but it fell over because its shape wasn’t made for that.
I was very worried because I needed the honey to feed some bears so they wouldn’t eat the salmon in the stream. When I realized the honey had gone bad and saw the bears running toward the salmon, I also ran to stop them from eating the fish. Before I reached them, I woke up from the dream.

In the dream, the salmon were something very precious, something that had a lot of value to me, and something I cared about too much to let the bears eat them.

In fact, in the dream the worry and stress were overwhelming.

What makes salmon so interesting is
That they have to find her way home...and they do..when the outer circumstances are good...
That is probably the reason you care sooo much...fish in generell has a religious archetypal background and i wonder if this might reflect your relationship with family...?🎏

Jung describes the process of honey's penetration and transformation as follows: "In honey, the 'sweetness of the earth,' we readily recognize the 'spiritus corporalis,' the life-balm that permeates all that is living, green, and growing. Psychologically, it expresses the joy of existence and the life drive, which eliminate and overcome all that is inhibiting and dark. Where springtime joy and anticipation prevail, spirit can embrace nature and nature can embrace spirit." (Jung, CW 14/II, § 358)

But that honey has mold..not properly treated, wrong glasses🎏

Native Nations of the Pacific Northwest define themselves as Salmon People. They consider salmon to be an extremely important gift of food from the Creator, and each year they honor the salmon's sacrifice in special ceremonies.

Thank you for your interpretation. It’s really interesting to read how you connect the symbols with archetypes and family meanings. I hadn’t seen the dream from that angle. I thought it might be another dream about my kidneys, haha.
But what do you think about the tusk-shaped jar? It’s the strangest part for me. I tried to stand it upright, but it kept falling because of its shape. I’m curious how you would interpret that weird symbol. c

I just thought about it...the jars and the tusk like jars are wrong "containers" for the otherwise good honey..if the Honey (like a nectar from mother nature) would have been in the right container, all would have been good.
The "tusk" container is something special.. tusks in generell (or all kind of horns) have, if I remember right, a spiritual meaning..just think about the hunters, hunting animals just because of those tusks...I think it has to do with Power..I try to find more..
But looking at such a dream: all your efforts to protect Salmon on their HOME is very good and your dream maker will honour that..just remember RELIGION comes from RE LIGIO ..going back to where you came from, where you belong to..beautiful dreammmand thanks to having that dialogue with me..PS: I will dig deeper in Tusk!

• In Hinduism, tusks symbolize strength and protection, particularly associated with Lord Varaha, who embodies these attributes.

Today i stumbled over a german expression
Ins horn stossen, to blow the horn...
What if that special symbol is meant as a horn for you to say something...but filled with that moldy honey to avoid that you raise your voice?
