The reflection in the mirror is how you perceive yourself or how you want others to see you. You may be contemplating on strengthening and changing aspects of your character.

Monsters - Fears in your life. People, objects, your job, etc. Slaying a monster symbolizes overcoming these fears. See Monsters, Dragons, Serpents

From MDS Dream Motifs
Monsters (1) Is the dragon guarding a treasure, or a cave which might contain treasure? If so, the cave probably represesnts your unconscious, the treasure represents yourself, the dragon that stands between you and your true self represents the fearsomeness of the unconscious for one who is still afraid of what may be lurking there.

(2) For Jung, the first stage of the individuation process is the conscious ego's heroic struggle to lift itself out of the orginal all-encompassing unconsciousness and to establish control of unconscious forces. This finds symbolic representation in the legendary drago-slayer, St George (St George = the ego; the dragon = the unconscious).

(3) The dragon may represent the devouring aspect of (your relationship with) your mother. 'Slaying the dragon' may therefore mean putting an end to whatever in your attachment to your mother is detrimental to the process of finding your own psychic individuality. Once the individual has achieved liberation from the 'dragon', the feminine side of the man's psyche and the masculine side of the woman's psyche will no longer appear in threatening form, but as an indispensable companion and guide in further stages of self-development.

(4) A dragon may represent the generative power of (Mother) Nature; the unconscious, felt as womb pregnant with new possibilities of life.

(5) A winged dragon may symbolize some kind of transcendence, some passing from 'lower' to 'higher' level of personal maturity.

(6) A dragon may be a symbol for your sexuality, particularily if it - your sexuality - frightens you. Is your fear irrationsal; or does sexuality threaten to rule your life? In either case, don't kill the 'dragon'; if necessary tame it. (In China, 'chi' is good, life-giving energy and the channels it runs along are called 'dragon-lines', which are said to follow underground water and underground magnetic fields).

Mortuary - Perhaps your unconscious is confronting you with the fact of mortality in order to change your perspective, or ambitions or values.

Mother - May be telling you something about your relationship with your mother. Mother may symbolize the unconscious, especially the spiritual aspect (goddess). See Father-Mother

From MDS Dream Motifs
Mother Basic meaning: Older, wiser, more experienced part of feminine self aspect; the unconscious; intuition; natural and instinctive life; your relationship with your mother.

(1) A dream about your mother may be telling you something about your relationship with your mother. Mother-attachment may be so strong that the development of your own individuality has been prevented. Inner independence of mother is the first great step towards realizing your true self.

(2) In a man's dream, mother may symbolize the feminine side of his psyche.

(3) Mother may symbolize the unconscious; intuitive self; natural instinctive life; the source of nourishment and growth for the psyche.

Motorcycle - Male sexuality (a Macho symbol). In a woman's dream it symbolizes her masculine side; assertiveness, ego, power to control.

Mouse - May indicate inferiority complex feelings about oneself. Also see Mice above.

Mountain - Climbing a mountain symbolizes a task you are facing. If you are at the top of a mountain it symbolizes achievement.

From HyperDictionary.com
Mountain Seeing mountains in your dream means many major obstacles and challenges that you have to overcome. If you are on top of the mountain, then it means that you have achieved and realized your goals. Alternatively, mountains indicates a higher realm of consciousness, knowledge, and spiritual truth.

Scenes depict current thinking, emotions, perceptions, relationships and provide insights on problems without a bias, as they really are and not always as you perceive them in your waking life. The characters in the movie often represent different aspects of yourself. You are the producer and director and have control. Change what needs to be change.

Moving - Making changes in your life {waking conscious or unconsciously wanting or needing to}.

Murder - Repressed hostility or resentment towards someone or something. If your are being murdered, it represents a repressed emotion that is threatening to mutinty if not recognized by your conscious self.

From HyperDictionary.com

Alternatively, you may have some repressed aggression or rage at yourself or at others. Dreaming that you witness a murder indicates deep-seated anger towards somebody.
