Dream and its interpretation

I say nightmares plural because I woke up multiple times and gad different dreams every time, I'll just list the ones I remember.
A blue footed duck ran in through my back door, I held the door open but it randomly turned around and tried to attack me. It felt, evil or malevolent. I chased it down and broke it's neck, being horrified by my actions, I kicked it away from me. The led to flashes of mutilated duck bodies. The TV started saying that whoever killed the duck would be executed, I remember being scared and running to hide, then it ended. Something happened in-between but it has slipped from my memory. It then cuts to a dark closet with an older man and a small child talking in the background, (they aren't visible). The grandpa is telling stories about monsters that talk to you. The grandpa says "Well boy, do you have any questions?" And the kid responses with "what does the demon say when he talks to me?" A white demon face peaks out from the closet and jumps at the camera. I woke up from this but quickly went back to sleep. I then cut to a seemingly happy man in mountain climbing attire, as the dream progresses he seems like he's acting happy more than being happy. He is talking to an audience on his live stream (my pov is from his camera for most of it). He talks like an eccentric live streamer, think of those meat canyon videos insulting live streamers. He is in a small snow covered room with broken windows. In the live stream he walks through many of these massive snow fulled urban building, like 60 stories tall or taller. He walks on boards from roof to roof, seemingly the only person in existence. Rambling on to an audience of nobody, except me. That's when I woke up, longest and creepiest dream I've had.

Interpretation

Your dream appears to revolve around the central theme of confronting inner fears and the struggle for authenticity.

The blue-footed duck symbolizes an aspect of yourself or a situation that seems harmless but harbors malevolent potential. The act of breaking its neck and the subsequent horror and guilt you experience indicate a confrontation with a dark, repressed part of your psyche—perhaps an instinctual or shadow aspect that you felt compelled to suppress violently. The mutilated duck bodies suggest lingering guilt and unresolved feelings about this confrontation, hinting at a fear of societal judgment or punishment, as evidenced by the TV's proclamation of execution for the duck's killer.

The scene transitions to a dark closet, symbolizing the unconscious mind or hidden fears. The conversation between the older man and the small child represents the dialogue between your wiser, experienced self and your innocent, inquisitive inner child. The grandpa’s stories about monsters that talk to you may reflect the fears and anxieties that have been communicated to you, either by others or by your own internal narratives. The child's question about the demon's words and the sudden appearance of the demon face likely represent your deep-seated fears and the terror of facing the unknown aspects of your psyche.

The final segment featuring the seemingly happy mountain climber who is alone in a desolate, snow-covered urban landscape reflects a persona that outwardly appears content but is internally isolated and disconnected. The broken windows and deserted buildings symbolize shattered illusions and the desolation of the soul. The fact that he is streaming to an audience of nobody, except you, suggests a feeling of performing for others while feeling fundamentally unseen or misunderstood—the pressure to maintain a facade of happiness in the face of inner desolation.

These dream elements collectively point to an inner conflict between your conscious self and your shadow—the parts of your personality that you may find undesirable or frightening. The tension between appearing happy and feeling isolated, the confrontation with malevolence, and the fear of societal judgment all suggest a need to integrate these shadow aspects to achieve psychological wholeness.

One actionable piece of advice based on your dream's message would be to engage in shadow work. This involves acknowledging, understanding, and integrating the darker, repressed aspects of your personality. This could be facilitated through journaling, therapy, or creative expression, allowing you to confront and reconcile these inner conflicts, ultimately leading to greater self-awareness and authenticity.
