Judy,
Thanks for the detailed dream analysis. I'll let you know if anything
manifests in my life that resembles your interpretation in the next few days or
weeks.
It is logical that tennis can be interpreted as a challenge. Midnight is
definitely in the dark. But it is also the opposite of noon, which typically
means success in jyotish.
Boehner can be interpreted as someone from another political persuasion or
ideological belief since I don't consider myself a Republican. However, I did
have a friend in Seattle who voted for Republican candidates.
The dream probably means to be careful in taking on challenges that are beyond
one's capability.
You should start a sideline gig as a psychic or dream interpreter. How does
Shri Judy from Jersey Shore sound to you?

Here's my wild guess:
You are faced with some kind of challenge in your life. You're in the dark as
to how to address it and are afraid you might make a mistake.
Challenge = tennis game
In the dark = midnight
Mistake = Boehner ("boner"--the dream is punning with the spelling of the name
rather than its pronunciation)
It isn't a dire or violent challenge--tennis is a very civilized game.
Boehner's job in real life is to mediate disputes between people, but he made
mistakes in dealing with the government shutdown crisis, which reinforces the
"boner" pun.This is probably a social challenge of some sort for you that
you're not sure how to deal with. (I'm assuming that Boehner represents part of
yourself that perhaps has made gaffes in the past.)
My sense is that the dreaming mind generally is not very articulate, and it
has to struggle to construct a picture of a situation that relates to what's
going on in your life. It grabs a bit of resonance here and a vague allusion
there and sort of cobbles them together, often quite clumsily, but also
ingeniously given what it has to work with in the way of a vocabulary.
A dream doesn't necessarily give you solutions. Usually all it's doing is
telling you something about what's happening in your mind that you aren't
consciously aware of.
All IMHO, of course.

Doc,
As you indicated, the dream may have an element of political concession or
negotiation. But playing tennis at midnight is still baffling to me.
We never got to play tennis. I just said that I can play with him. Then, the
dream ended.
I'll look up the meaning of a tennis game in a dream book filed somewhere in
my library. I'll let you guys know the results tomorrow.

I have had a similar dream (though not tennis related), back when Clinton was
President - It comes from a deep longing for national unity, and the immense
subconscious power that these national figures, can represent.
So, who won the tennis match?

That was the theme of my dream last night. John Boehner, the Republican,
asked me to play tennis with him at that odd hour. And, I said yes.
Does anyone know how to interpret this dream?
