Yowsers... ya got anything on the "being crushed by a giant block of stone" dream? Or the "realizing too late that you jumped outta the plane without a parachute" dream?
I mean... as long as we're sharing our collective neuroses... :-)
To watch in avalanche in a dream is to see obstacles coming and have no way to avoid those obstacles. An avalanche is usually a warning, and can be avoided in real life if one is careful and changes a plan or a detail or two. Since an avalanche is very dramatic, it is likely that the dreamer will know exactly what the symbol represents, and other symbols within the dream will likely point to the best course of action. In a prophetic dream if you are buried under an avalanche oddly enough is considered a good sign and you will likely receive a spectacular stroke of good luck! If you dream of others being buried under this avalanche then a change of surrounding is likely to occur.
To dream that you have difficulties with a parachute, denotes that you will be let down by someone you relied on and trusted. If you dream that your parachute doesn't open, you feel you've been deserted by one who was supposed to take care of you.
