The scene suggests a situation in which you could see yourself being very up-front – very honest – in relation to an idea you have (standing in front of this person) but you may need to confront this idea. While you may not identify with the idea (couldn’t tell who they were), in your mind there may be something to be said for it. In this scene the idea in question can be the idea of doing good things to make up for the bad that has been done.
The hands refer to one’s acts and deeds; to the things we do. “Lucifer/the devil was always here” would obviously imply that behind the bad deeds we find the influence of the devil. Note that in relation to the hands there is an expression: “the devil makes use of idle hands” implying that when our hands and deeds are not put to doing useful work, bad deeds may be expected to occur.
The aspect of yourself which represents this idea of doing good to compensate for the bad deeds appears to reflect your own beliefs or sense of Self. (their eyes looked like mine) This seems to lead to the questions (1) is this how you live – doing bad things then trying to make up for them? And (2) do you believe you can do many bad things as long you make up for them later? The problem with this can be that if Lucifer is with you when bad deeds are done, you could assume that God is with you when good deeds are done to compensate – but this merely leads to a balance or state of equilibrium. On Judgment Day, will the good outweigh the bad then??? Perhaps waking up a little scared might reflect a good or godly emotion in such a case. [Note the “3” main emotions felt in the whole dream – anger, peaceful, scared.]
