Dreams involving cults or compounds can often represent feelings of confinement or being trapped in certain beliefs or situations. The garden might symbolize growth or innocence, particularly with the presence of children, suggesting that you are reflecting on your own childhood or the purity of youth.
The monster or demon hunting the kids could represent fears or anxieties that you may feel are threatening your sense of safety or security. It may also symbolize aspects of your life that you perceive as harmful or destructive, particularly in relation to childhood experiences or innocence.
This dream could be prompting you to explore feelings of vulnerability or fear in your waking life. It might be beneficial to reflect on any current situations that make you feel trapped or anxious and consider how you can address those feelings. Additionally, think about the relationships or environments in your life that may feel suffocating or where there are underlying tensions.
Consider journaling about your feelings or discussing them with someone you trust to help process these emotions.
