Understanding Dream Imagery
Interpreting and analyzing dreams can be
great fun for the adventurous dreamer. Simply keeping a dream journal for
a few days can sometimes provide you with valuable insights into both the
meaning of your dreams and unresolved issues in your waking
life.
Dream interpretation can even be
part of many people's careers. In particular, therapists and psychologists
often used dream analysis as part of their practices, especially when
working with people who suffer nightmares as a result of trauma and
stress.
This article, though will take a
more lighthearted approach to dream interpretation. Let's start with an
examination of the colors often seen in dreams, and what those colors may
symbolize.
Dreaming in Color
Most dreamers report dreaming in
color at least some of the time, and for many the colors encounte red in the dream world are even more vivid than those
encountered in the real world. A quick dream color quick is listed
below.
Pink — Pink is generally understood to be a
symbol of love, and dreaming of pink objects can symbolize a happy love
affair.
Red — Red has several different meanings,
including passion and anger. The actual meaning of red objects in a dream
is dependent on its context within the dream.
Black — Black is often seen as a negative
symbol. Black can symbolize the a void in the dreamer's life, or a fear of
death or aging.
Grey — Grey is a color midway between black
and white, and therefore grey is often seen as a symbol of fear or of
confusion. People struggling with an important decision will often dream
in shades of grey.
White — White is generally understood to be
a symbol of purity, but like black it can also symbolize a fear of aging
or death. Dreaming of white objects can also indicate a fear of change or
of new surroundings.
Green — Green can be a symbol of the
yearning for spiritual or physical renewal, or for growth and
healing.
Blue — Blue can often symbolize
spirituality, but in some circumstances it can indicate sadness as well.
To understand the true meaning, it is important to look at the context of
the dream.
Yellow — Yellow is often seen as a symbol
for calm, peace and hope. Yellow is the color of sunshine, and dreams of
yellow are often sunny, happy dreams.
Dreams About Numbers
Numerologists probably have their
own interpretations of every possible number encountered in a dream, and
every number can mean several different things depending on the context of
the specific dreams. Many people put great stock in dreams about numbers,
even going so far as to play those numbers in the lottery. While we can't
guarantee you a winning lottery ticket, we can provide some common
explanations for dream numbers.
One — The number one can be a symbol for
wholeness or unity. Dreaming of the number one could mean that you feel
your life is complete.
Two — The number two can stand for balance,
such as spiritual balance. Dreaming of the number two could indicate a
life in balance.
Three — Three is one of the most commonly
seen numbers in dreams, and it is often thought to symbolize spiritual
fulfillment, harmony or unity.
Five — The number five can be an indication
of an upcoming change. How the number is encountered in the dream could
indicate whether the change in your real life is welcomed or
feared.
