Night of January 25th
I had three dreams but currently only remember the last two.
I was at a wedding. Three women were getting married. One of the couples are good friends of mine and actually are married. In the dream they had been married for about a year but wanted another ceremony. I was the maid of honor, of possibly a bridesmaid. We were in a large room. I twas dimly lit. Everything was golden and red except for the brides' dresses which were white. It was time to light candles. I received a lighter from my friend and went to the wall to light an oil lantern. As I flicked the lighter on and put the flame to the wick, a tall, thin, pale, bald man wearing a dark suit approached me. He silently took the lighter from my hand and went to the next lantern. I told him it was my job, I was asked to do it. He ignored me. He went to the next wall and let the two big red candles on a long shelf.
I was walking down the main street of a small mountain town. The fronts of the shops were wood, with wooden overhangs. The sun was bright and warm though the air was cold. I noticed a friend getting off of his bike in front of a small bakery and deli. I said hello as I caught up to him. He opened the door for me and he set his bike against the wall inside. We chatted in line, waiting to order. I ordered and went to find us a seat. He stood at the counter, eyes fixed upward on the tv behind the counter. As he finally walked toward me I could tell he was crying. He sat and leaned into me. I wrapped my arms around him and asked him what was going on. His friends had been on a small boat, heading somewhere to go wake boarding. My friend had opted out in favor of mountain biking in this town. The tv was showing that the boat had hit a big wave and crashed. Two of his friends had died. One of them had his right leg and arm severed. My friend didn't know what to do. I held him and cried with him. He suddenly got up and headed for the door. I asked where he was going. He didn't answer. I told him his bike was still here. He didn't answer.

Recurring Themes
I have a lot of elements in my dreams that come back. Over and over and over. Here are some of them, and also their meanings according to the internet.
Tidal Wave

Turtle
To see a turtle in your dream symbolizes wisdom, faithfulness, longevity, and loyalty. It also suggests that you need to take it slow in some situation or relationship in your life. With time and patience, you will make steady progress. Alternatively, a turtle indicates that you are sheltering yourself from the realities of life. You are putting forth a hard exterior and not letting others in. As a result, you are feeling withdrawn.
