Some More Interpretations
of Dream
Symbols
Interpreting the sometimes confusing,
disjointed items found in dreams can be difficult. Only in the dream world
can you encounter a dragon, a wine glass and a giant comb in the same night. Making sense of all these strange items
can be difficult. Knowing what your dreams mean can be the first step
toward using your dreams to work out issues with your
waking life, but it is important to know what some of these symbols really
mean.
As with any dream
interpretation, what a particular symbol really means depends on its
context within the dream, as well as the particular experiences of the
dreamer. The list provided below
is intended only as a guide, not as an all encompassing guide to dream
symbology.
Building
A buil ding
is usually a symbol for the dreamer's physical body.
Cave
A cave is a representation of a hiding place, and it may
indicate that you are hiding from certain things in your life. Dreaming of
emerging from a cave can be a symbol for the emergence of a new life, or a symbol of creativity.
Driver
Dreaming that you are a driver can indicate that you are
in control of your life and your future.
Falling
Dreams of falling can be manifestations of feelings of
failure or of low self esteem. Falling can also indicate the dreamer is
overwhelmed or feels out of control.
Gold
Dreaming of gold can indicate a desire for wealth, or a
desire to be the best.
Head
The head is often used in dreams as a symbol of wisdom and
knowledge.
Interview
If you dream you are being interviewed, it may mean that
you feel you are being judged, by either yourself or by other people. If
you dream you are the interviewer, you may be the one doing the judging. It can indicate that you feel you
need to reconsider a judgment you made of someone else. The feelings
encountered during the dream are the best
indication of whether you passed or failed the interview.
 Knot
Dreaming about a knot could indicate a restraint on your
freedom, actions or feelings. In other situations, a knot could indicate a
feeling of being in control.
Lightning
Seeing lightning in a dream can be symbolic of a sudden
awareness or spiritual breakthrough.
Missing Articles
Missing articles in a dream can be manifestations of
feeling out of control, or of lacking an important piece of information.
Dreams about missing a train, bus or plane can be symbols of missing an important opportunity in your life. Missed
reservations or missing items can also indicate a need to be more
organized in your waking life.
Naked
Dreams about being naked can indicate fear of being
exposed, or fears that others will find about things you have been
hiding.
Paralysis
Dreams of being paralyzed can symbolize feelings of
helplessness on the part of the dreamer, or difficulty controlling certain
situations in his or her life. Sometimes dreamers may confuse the normal muscle relaxation that occurs
during dream sleep for paralysis.
Quarrel
Dreams of a quarrel or argument can be manifestations of
an inner conflict, or of feelings of being burdened by authority
figures.
Rooms
In dreams, the subconscious mind is often divided into
different rooms, and each room represents a different part of the psyche.
Opening or walking through a door in your dream can be a symbol of a willingness to face things you have kept
hidden away.
 Tree
Often, a dreamed of tree is a symbol of spirit, of
knowledge or of power. The size of the tree, and its health and condition,
can be indications of the perceived strength of the dreamer's spiritual life or knowledge.
Umbrella
Dreaming of an open umbrella can symbolize a desire to be
protected from emotional turmoil, while a closed umbrella can mean you are
not afraid of such strong emotions..
Vegetables
Dreaming of vegetables can indicate a subconscious desire
to feed the spirit or the soul.
War
Dreams of war can indicate that a more aggressive approach
to certain aspects of your life is needed.
Weather
The state of weather in the dream can be an indication of
the emotional health of the dreamer. Rain in a dream can indicate sadness
or depression, while sunshine in a dream
can mean you are happy and content.
X-Ray
Dreaming about having an x-ray can
symbolize an unconscious desire on the part of the dreamer to show his or
her true self.
