What does my dream mean?
Some of the most commonly asked questions on Answers relate back to dreams, dream interpretations, and meaning. Each day, tons of Answers users ask questions about their nightly visions, hoping to peek into their psyche. But where does this practice come from, and, how can you be sure to ask your dream interpretation questions in a way that is both knowledge seeking and, appropriate?
Here are a few tips about this practice, and, a bit of history.
History
It is believed that interpreting dreams dates back to the Ancient Egyptians and the Greeks, and that in some cultures, dreams are closely related to divinity. This means that through dreams you may have a closer tie to your religious affiliation, or, that through dreams, you may receive a message from the gods.
However, modern theorists, like Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung and others had a more practical approach to dreams: they believed dreams represented symbols within life, and encouraged patients to keep dream journals.
A combination of the Egyptian, Grecian and modern approach has led to a modern amalgamation, which allows for dream interpreters to create “dream dictionaries,” which are often used to help decipher one’s dreams.

dreams are always open to interpretation…for one you should know…as a person..
as a whole.
think about it
I used to dream of flying…running down a hill
trying to get off the ground.
The problem with dream interpretation is that the best person to really interpret the dream is the dreamer. While they may not know what the dream really meant, to them it could mean something completely different than what others have said it means, or what “dream dictionaries” or “dream interpretation” books say. More often than not these sources only look at individual symbols of a dream, and not the dream as a whole. And, in most cases, as Freud has been credited for saying, “sometimes a cigar is just a cigar”.
I am surprised at you. You completely failed to indicate that you have a special section for posting dream questions. Further you failed to specify that is where questions on dream interpretation should be posted.
Why on earth, in a website designed to promote knowledge and supply answers to peoples questions, must we be polite to such idiotic ideas as dream interpretation?
Surely it has been proven to every sane persons satisfaction over the last 10,000 years of recorded human history that dreams are meaningless?
Dreams are nothing more than random noise created by the brain when you are asleep.
This is something even children learn at a young age. What sort of disservice are we doing to people by indulging these insane beliefs? When you see people posting that they are afraid or worried about some dream they had, isn’t the sanest response to tell them that it’s meaningless? And not to subscribe to some other unproven nonsense, like they are being haunted and need to call an exorcist?
i am pregant with 8 months, i have a dream and saw four cats, three black cats and another one two coloured cat. three black cats sitting together and watching me, and another two coloured cat looking at me and smiling and rubbing on my back . what does dream mean
I have had dreams that come true quite a bit. When they come true it’s always years after the dream. WEIRD! What do you guys think? Very good read. I just subscribed.
I recently had a dream that sometimes reoccurs. Not as often as some others…but it starts out with me on the beach in the water. I’m always really close to the shore, yet I’m in very deep water. The water always starts out calm, but continues to rise and get rough with big waves. I rise up with small waves and they being to get bigger. The last wave takes me up higher than the beach and I can tell I’m at the top of the wave and just as it is about to crash me down onto the beach and drown me in the wave, I wake up. what does this mean?
@Sophist — we did actually– “be sure you post your question in the appropriate category: dream interpretation.” — dream interpretation is hyperlinked to the special dream interpretation category found within Answers.

Very Subjective. One must decide themselves if an ouside interpretation is appropriate. Mum I see your black cats a a set of three like gendered siblings and I’d imagine smiling two-colours to be the proud Papa, rubbing your back to ease the load of the three children.
i dream of snakes a lot, some times friendly an some times not.
Thank-you for taking all of that on yourself. Then,I, can tell myself quietly that some dreams = that I have been to that place before, and I witnessed something beyond normal, calm, nothing happening, emotions. And that it scared me too bad. Thank-you though, and Truly, Susan D. Snavely.
Dream interpretation falls under the heading of Shamanism.
Smoke and Mirrors sums it up nicely.
But unfortunately there are too many people who believe in magic, UFO’s, Bigfoot, Telekinesis, ESP, divining rods, and other equally 11th century ideas.
There is no place in the 21st century for this kind of thought pattern.
People should be ashamed of themselves for not taking the time to understand the Universe for what it is and not what they want it to be.
I agree with some of the definitions, the dream cannot be defined or interpretated (not sure how to spell it) by someone else, I believe it is not meant to have a meaning unless you know exactly what it means yourself. I mean a couple of days ago I had a dream about bubblegum flavored bacon, I have no idea what it means, but I know there was an electric bird, a lie detector test, an appearance from a singer and I was running away from something at the same time, what it means, I don’t know and nobody can ever tell me what it means, they won’t have any idea either. the moral is, unless you are really disturbed by your dream, don’t go looking for answers, because chances are you won’t have the correct one. dreams are nothing more than your imagination trying to get you to sleep better and keep your memory alive by looking for answers all the time
Sigh.
I’ve felt all along that the Dream Interpretation category should be under Myths, not in Social Sciences. Dream Dictionaries belong with other pseudo-science (hey! THERE’S a category proposal for you: Pseudo-science. You can put Astrology and all the rest there).
First, it’s just silly to think everything in a dream means exactly the same thing to everyone. Second, it’s silly to think that everything in dreams is meaningful, since much of the content of dreams is due to random firings in the brain.
Freud has been pretty much discreditecd among serious researchers on dreams and dreaming; Jung’s ideas never had any real support among serious people.
Jay–There are several possible explanations for “precognitive dreams.” Here are a few, ranging from the most supernatural to the most practical:
1. Most supernatural: During the dream state you are able to tap into energies and wavelengths not accessible to your conscious mind, and if everything has already happened, and time is an illusion, you were able to tune in to that state and remember it.
2. A bit psychic oriented. Your subconscious takes in tons of information, very subtle tiny bits of knowledge and observations that you don’t take in from your conscious mind. Some of those observations are things that you are noticing, deep down, about trends, likelihoods, possible outocmes etc, that get played out in detail in your dream. These are probabilities that you notice, and then your subconscious hunches and observations turn out to be correct some time down the road.
3. Least supernatural/most materialistic. Every night we have lots and lots of dreams. From a probability standpoint, we are going to eventually dream about something that does occur. We forget all the “misses” but remember the “hits” and think it is amazing. But in fact, it is almost inevetible that someday, something will happen related to some part of some dream.
Personally, I am most convineced by number 2; though feel often number 3 happens. I’m less convinced by number 1, but who knows?
A couple of years back, after a very traumatic experience, I had a nightmare where I was lying awake in bed, and I couldn’t move or speak. It was very realistic, and I need to know what it means.
Dreams.. I think dreams are very importnat to our psyche. It helps us come to terms with reality subconsciously in ways we consciously refuse to. That is why many dreams are crazy, insightful, scary or happy. Whatever they are they are obviously derived from our emotional subconscious. We as human being are evolving, our brains are also evolving. We live in the conscious world, we have a connection to the universal consciousness, that connection is the subconscious. Should we ever experience the universal consciouness we would no longer wish to live in what we now know to be our own subjective consciousness. There is no answer to this question as in reality there never was a question. DMT is a very good indicator to what life, dreams and death are all about.
Imagine if we all took hold of our own mental power as human beings. Using our minds and emotions to further our species, think of the possibilities. We will one day evolve and think in the subconscious and will be connected to the next form of consciousness via the universal consciousness. My question is, what’s next? Oh yeah there are no questions… there is no spoon Neo.
my dreams offten do come true. i will be like in a bilding and all of a sudden a part i’ve dremt about will happen! it creeps me out! and i ahd this one dream once. my grandma works as a ganator at the YMCA, so i had a dream that she slipped down the stairs (it has been snowing a lot latley and the stairs were slippery) and died. i told her about my dream and she has been coutions latley.

Dreams, like many other important and over popularized tools can be used by an expert to provide insight or mislead. In that they are no different from the fabled oracles given at Delphi.
To answer John’s post, he might be familiar with the character of Charlie Epps on the popular CBS show Numbers, a math genius who used the well known facts from Game Theory (a sub branch of mathematics usually relegated to the domain of social sciences) but interprets them in such a unique manner as to allow extremely useful applications to the point of apprehending dangerous criminals.
Similarly, dreams have their uses more than people suspect. They utilize multiple levels of the symbolic language and just like with many languages, some translators are better than others. That is the case even with fundamental sciences, not everybody is entitled to a Nobel prize ins Physics, after all.
Another part of my post is designed to address the concern that most people are better adapted to interpreting their own dreams. That is sometimes true when people are gifted in learning symbolic language.
Most often however, the average person is unaware of the various ideas from literature, psychology, philosophy or folklore that can provide for a better understanding of the messages coming from their subconsious mind. It is not a commonly taught lesson to shift your perspective so that a different translation becomes available. Dreams do have meaning, but it is sometimes not immediately apparent to the ley man of which kind. For that reason the service provided by our community in the Dream section is quite valuable.
Your article was well written, Melissa, but I think the most important aspect of dreams is forgotten. They were connected in Greek culture to several divinities as you said, but most importantly to the god of healing, Asclepius. A proper interpretation of dreams was once designed to help an individual to help himself by presenting him with all the relevant information.
So in reality, dreams have so much meaning that they often need to be subdivided to further categories. One who asks a question should probably be aware that it can be general or specific. Some dream messages answer questions about the immediate future. Some offer a guiding hand in dealing with the past. Another group yet offers a connection to those realms that transcend our understanding.
Also, if it is possible to add to the general YA warning at the bottom, I think those who post a dream question should probably be aware that certain details they post, even when appearing neutral, could contain most intimate information when seen by some of us.
Just my view, thought it could help the community a bit. Either way, a nice article and a good section to have, in spite of all the potential disadvanatages.
Dream interpretation requires incredible ‘listening’ on the part of the interpreter. The answer is very important to the asker, and they may act on what you say. It is best to be serious and respectful.
I had a Dream Lately, that was the MOST Incredible Dream I have EVER Had in my Life!!!!
I felt like I was on Another Planet.
It felt almost like a Subtropical-Climate.
Things were felt Naturally comfortable.
Then the Sun came up, and it Felt like one of the most Spiritually-Powerful things I have ever Experienced. It was so Powerful, it Felt like another Planet, not on Earth. A type of Seal came out from somewhere, and started walking tward me from about 30 feet. Like a Night-Crawler would in the Summer Time.
And then I Met someone I’ve Never Seen before.
She was very Naturally happy to See me. And when she looked in my Eye’s, she couldn’t stop looking into mine. She smiled to Brightly, and she gave me a Hug. Like I was Supposed to Meet her. She had Brownish-Golden Hair, and I don’t know who she Really was. But she was Exceptionally Fond of me. I don’t know if she was my Guardian Angel, or my Long-Life Partner I’ve never met on Earth. She was Not a Goddess, but Human-like. No Glow, or anything. Just Humanly-Loving. I really Liked her! I want to Meet her Again! :^)
Almost once a week I would have a dream about my teeth falling out. I happened to run across something one day which said that dream having to do with teeth falling out were a sign of lack of self-confidence. I’ve never had another dream like that again.
While some dreams are just “noise” created by our brains trying to clear out some room, others are definitely messages that our subconscious minds are trying to tell us… Unfortunately, our subconscious often tries to tell us in ways which we don’t normally think in, therefore making it a difficult task for the one person who can best decipher them (ourselves).
If you can’t figure out your own dream, and need help trying to understand, try to remember the feelings that the dream invoked in you… While there often are similar meanings behind certain events (which allows the creation of ‘dream dictionaries’) the significance varies from person to person. If someone is dreaming of flying, and feels frightened, that often means that their life is changing too quickly for them and they might not be ready for it. If they feel exhilarated, then it means they welcome the change, and and are more than ready (emotionally, at least) for whats coming their way.
Of course, the events are only symbols and may not mean the same thing for everyone… most dream dictionaries are best suited for people of Western backgrounds (North America, some of Europe, etc). Culture affects everything!
@ John
You are THICK dreams are NOT meaningless, DREAMS are messages CAPTURED BY OUR SUBCONSCIOUS and are played back to us as we sleep, dreams can tell us what do do show us what we should aim for, like somebody mentioned earlier, they had dreams about wanting to get off the ground, well maybe they should be a pilot?
Dont listen to idiouts like John he has no imagination and doesnt know what he is talking about, he probly doesnt have ANY DREAMS
what we believe in Islam is very similar to what’s written here.about it going back to the Egyptians there’s a story about Joseph enturpreting dreams for two men in prison and then for the king of Egypt.we do believe dreams can be a sign from god or a message but dreams can also just be dreams like your brain processing information or going over what you did that day.i personally believe dream interpreting is a gift not everyone has, and not even dream dictionaries can always help.
go to http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/ search what it was about than it with tell you.
There is a big difference between the dreams, or visions, that were interpreted in olden times and are considered to be of the divine. 99% of the time we have regular dreams that come from our fears, our subconcious, or a bit of bad potato, with there being more of gravy than the grave pertaining to those dreams. Then, there is 1% in which we shut down our conscience mind that is always trying to make sense of things and we are able to open our perception enough to gain information from something greater than ourselves. It was those visions that ancient peoples spent so much time trying to decipher and understand, because they knew that this information was vital and could spell disaster or be a warning of some doom. They saw these dreams as a chance to be forewarned or gain a higher insight into the world around us. That is why they were so focused on sifting out that 1% of visions from the nonsense we dream every night.
I believe in dream interpretation. I don’t, however, believe in dream dictionaries. I think there are just too many ways to interpret anything, and I don’t think there”s a solid meaning attached to any individual object, person, place, or thing. I think the meaning of the dream relates to the individual persons associations with the things they dream about, and their past experiences. I think a little knowledge of the persons history and current situation in life is needed to properly evaluate their dreams. After all, things have different meanings to different people.
Of course dreams have meaning. Whether or not they predict the future of have some sort of super-natural power is a matter of belief, but obviously dreams must have meaning. In the words of Shakespeare “there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so”. Our mind determines the ‘meaning’ of all our sense phenomena – since dreams are clearly a product of (and simultaneously a subjective experience of) the mind then they MUST have as much meaning as a person is willing to attribute to them.
Anyone who is attempting to dismiss dreams because of ‘science’ needs to work hard to understand the nature of quantum physics. Taking our everyday common sense and calling it ‘science’ is simply ignorant. This is not meant as an insult but as a statement of fact. Far too many people claim that ‘science’ believes or disproves something when they themselves have a very poor understanding of ‘science’ itself.
Well, I dream about these things , and later in the day I see them . Freaky Huh ?
I’d learned from my Psychology class way back in college, that most of our dreams are just the result of our daily activities. Though some are prophetic and may serve as warning.
@ John
Glad you’re the voice of reason here. Wanting something to be true is irrelevant…dreams can be interesting, frightening, but they are ultimately just the brain defraggin’.
Others may call you an ‘idiout’ but the hard and obvious truths are impervious to ignorance.
well I have dreams of what’s gonna happen the next day and 1 of em was 4 days ago and it happen today and I thought is something bad suppose to happen?
Good article, but I think the “give a much detail as possible” bit should be expanded to provide more clarity. What detail should they be providing? Not all detail is good detail (at some level it degenerates into nitpicking about this and that and loses the flow of the dream). I think it should be something more like, “please give as much detail about the dream as you remember, especially regarding things you felt were important and how you felt about things (your emotions) in the dream.” Also, telling the dream like a story is another good suggestion.
Now, in response to some comments:
People with beliefs like John, Dave, and tehabwa are the reasons why I’ve seen a lot of people get trolled with “dreams are meaningless” messages on other answer sights when they ask for a dream interpretation for a dream they felt was meaningful. I’m not saying that they would do it, but I believe they are misled and may mislead others into believing that same myth.
Lets say that dreams are your mind sifting through data from your day (well, most dreams seem to have nothing to do with that day, so perhaps recent past). If this were the case, wouldn’t it follow that if a dream seems important that it might be something important from your recent past that you should be paying more attention to? As a vegetarian, I’ll often have dreams of eating meat when I’ve been ignoring how much protein I’m taking in or dreams of drinking milk if I’ve not been getting enough calcium. Dreams have also given good insight into issues that I’ve been going through at the time, often telling me what I didn’t want to believe was true even though it was.
To the “dreams are best interpreted by the dreamer” comments, I must say I agree, however this often isn’t practical. Ishamael said it best, and there isn’t any use in restating a point, but I’ll just sum it up by saying that the best person to tell you what’s wrong with yourself (mentally speaking) would be yourself, but most people aren’t really capable of that, so they go to a psychologist instead. This line of reason also falls into dream interpretation. Even I, who have interpreted quite a few dreams accurately, must go to other people for DI when I can’t separate myself from the dream enough to look at it from an analytical perspective (or when I need other views on it).
I am convinced that dream is real. It is a devine gift – a reflection of future event. Though it might be symbolic or direct
To me some dreams are true while some are not, because God sometimes speak to us through dreams.
as what my mom says, “it’s only a dream,nothing to worry about..”. I always had a bad dream since I was young but I really don’t mind it ‘coz my mom believes that it has nothing to do with our lives. And now that I have my own kids, I always reminding my eldest son whenever he have dreams that it’s nothing..
Hello, “mum”. Your dream of the cats was interesting. Ancient cultures worshipped cats and designated them representatives of wisdom, the future, and spirit guides. The tales of cats having 9 lives fall in to the mysticism of cats knowing the future by reincarnating with all the memories of their past life to use that knowledge in their next. Some believe that because of this, the cat would have information on their own life or future.
Being pregnant, you are naturally concerned about your child’s future and your future relationship with your child. So the 3 black cats could represent things you are most concerned about for your growing baby – a healthy body with all body parts, a healthy life, and a healthy future. The colored cats represents your baby’s life as an individual person, their own person with their own thoughts, wishes, hopes, and dreams. The colored cats rubbing on you indicates you feel pretty sure you and your future child will have personalities that get along as friends. It also means you feel pretty sure your baby will love you back, both as its mommy as well as a person deserving of love in return.
Congratulations and may your baby be born healthy, happy, and may it have a good life.
Hello, Racalish. Your dream of sledding in ice and snow is pretty indicative of young peoples’ relationships with one another – very slippery sometimes! Snow and ice can be very slippery and tricky to maintain control of your self and your movements, the same can be said for relationships among teenagers. Knowing this, it’s easy to see you in the halls and at activities at school where you have to move through the snow of the unknown when it comes to relationships with your friends, and trying to sort out the differences between a casual friendship and potentially serious relationships, with you getting hurt when others around you can’t control themselves either on the slippery path that is the icy road of figuring out the best way to grow up. It’s hard to figure out which person you like as a friend and which person will be your friend forever and which friend will only be your friend for right now.
The key is getting to know and like them as people who share the same planet as yourself, as individuals with individual worth rather than as potential friends, bff’s, of future boyfriends. So rather than focusing on the hope that the boy you fancy will ask you out, try finding out what he is like as a human being. Find out what interests that person outside of school, Find out if that person does things such as sports activities, or hobbies such as fixing cars, playing video games, or working on computers. It’s not always about liking the same music or famous person, sometimes it’s about finding out that they agree sledding is fun, so is snowboarding, skiing, and ice skating too. And maybe you could find out if these friends in your dream would be interested in going with you sledding, skiing, snowboarding, or ice skating as a real-life activity and get to know each other better as friends besides potential dates.
Good luck to you.
Dreams have meaning, or your brain wouldn’t waste the time it could be sleeping to make the pictures in your sleep. Sleep studies have verified that REM sleep, the only sleep phase you can dream in, is necessary to humans.
Just b/c the dream doesn’t have prophetic meaning isn’t a positive indicator that it means nothing at all.
The meanings are usually emotional, which is why the dreamer is the best one to interpret it.
I wish people would research sleep phases and Basic Psychology before they go off saying something stupid.
I had a dream that, to this day, I have no understanding of. Medical science isn’t a perfect model of reality, b/c it’s continuing to evolve along with humanity but hasn’t caught up to humanity’s current complexities They haven’t designed tests for everything, and the ones they use can and do have flaws in them.
But I KNOW I had that dream, and no one will tell me I didn’t, b/c the people in question weren’t visiting the dream with me.
I’ll never understand the dream, but I’m not about to put it on Answers-and lose 5 points only to receive an answer from an insensitive jerk.
Frankly, that’s how some people act, and everyone who visits here knows it’s true.
I work in health care-Former EKG & OR Technician, and current Paramedic.
I think that qualifies me to have an informed opinion on the Medical Technology of Sleep Analysis and the Dreaming Phase of sleep.
lame
sleepy time
My dreams kinda scare and comfort me.
there are some dreams relates to what has happened during that day or it’s just a memory of my past but with more detailed explantion as i relive those actions in my dreams and understnading why something happened.
I rarely get comforting dreams but when i get them, they seem to be short and vague, but when I wake up, It makes me happy, even though iGorget like the next second. Is there a reason we forget dreams?
wath does it mean when you have a dream about killing a beast and then falling off a cliff
There are a lot of arrogant meanies on here. Anyway, one thing important that I’d like all people seeking a dream interpretation to include in their dream description is the way they felt about a certain thing in their dream. The feelings or thoughts evoked by a dream are often a very important key to understanding its meaning.
And, people… Dreams have been given and interpreted by God for thousands of years. Read your Bibles.
Dream dictionnaries is a bunch of crap, psychoanalysis à la Freud interprets objects in dreams in relation to each individual person, one object can mean a variety of things and depends on the hidden ideas in the subconscious part of that person’s psyche…so please..unless the therapist is trained for at least ten years in REAL psychoanalysis, it is like entrusting your whole life in the hands of horoscopes!
I think people make a mistake by trying to analyze individual symbols. Dream symbols have no universal meanings, in my opinion. A house in a dream may mean one thing to one person and something entirely different to someone else. What’s more important in dreams than symbols, is FEELINGS. Feelings you have in a dream, such as fear, anger, etc., are real feelings, being experienced in an unreal situation. Dr. Arthur Janov gives a good example of this…one of his patients had a dream in which she was afraid of being ticketed by a cop. The feeling (fear) was real. The reason for the fear (the cop) was not. She was really afraid of being scolded by her mother.
Dreams are not to be attention to. A spirit of a thing one gives oneself over to is present in the object of the dream not the sleeper. It’s good to remember dreams and let them pass. Or what else is a new night about?
Dreams are to tell you what you’d do in such and such a situation. Don’t let others dictate the meanings.
I have a reocurring dream that needs interpetation. I dream that I am being attacked. A couple of guys break into my apartment and stab me several times this is after they do some other gruesome stuff to me. While this is going on they make my man watch what they do to me. They drag him off to another room and do horrible things to him. The men leave and some how my man manages to drag himself over to me and I basiclly “die” in his arms. Weird thing is I wake up in the dream and Im in the hospital still alive. What does this mean?
dreams dont mean anything…it is just people thinking in their sleep and they cant control it, some people can control their dreams,in other words, they chose what to think. is like day dreaming…but this time at night with your eyes closed
They say dreams are what happens when you hit your 5th stage of sleep called REM or rapid-eye movement. Your brain is absorbing information throught the day. While sleeping your brain sorts these new thoughts. If you have a dream, you see part of the information the brain is deciding to remember or forget. The body goes throught 5 stages and those are; 1. light sleep, people can easiliy wake you up by poking you. 2. alittle deeper sleep. you can still wake up but not by poking, talk etc. 3. this stage is called a deep sleep. You are in the heavy sleep were it is really hard to wake up someone. 4. this is the stage that most people sleep-walk/ sleep-talk. 5. REM (rapid-eye movement) is the stage you see dreams.
I hoped I helped. Thanks
I have a dream where i’m in a nightmare where someone is killing everyone, then i begin to beat the murderer to death… anyone got a clue?
Oh yeah and usually i’ll wake with blood on the backs of my hands…
Dreams are known to tell the future and a popular one is giving birth to twins (if you are a female) or if you are male (this sometimes comes to females) you sitting on a wooden chair in a dark room. this means that someone you know is going to fall ill or pass away
To the point that dreams are just “random noise”, science indicates to us that the concept of “random” means “perfectly random”, just like “round” means “perfectly round”. It is also like “pregnant” means “perfectly pregnant”. You cannot be partially pregnant, round or random. Random and round are mathematical concepts that are only approximated in reality. Nothing in reality is perfectly round, and nothing is perfectly random. Unfortunately, dreams are not random anything. There is an order to them, like there is to all things in the universe. And because you do not know what that order is, does not means it does not exist.

Dreams are symbols you must recognize in the dream, and if you can do something called Lucid Dreaming you can control you dreams like I do. I can dream, realize I am dreaming in the dream and then make stuff happen like once I made Lucille Ball knock on the door when I told everyone in the dream that I was dreaming and they said I was crazy, the ones I was dreaming about… I said, “Lucille Ball knock on the door” There was a knock and I opened it, and it was Lucille Ball, but it wasn’t… It was a woman, with red hair, and smiling, and I walked with her down the street and told her this was a dream. She laughed and asked if I could make money appear in my pocket. I said okay, and imagined a 100 dollar bill, and suddenly I reached into my pocket and there was a bill, but not quite a one hundred dollar bill, but a bill all the same. It’s very strange!
When I was about 10 years old I lived at The UN Plaza in New York City on the 23rd Floor. The building was built in 1966, and we were one of the first tenants, my family and I! One night I was lightly sleeping. I was dreaming and heard drumbeats and men singing or chanting. I woke up in my room and looked to my right and at the edge of my bed was a man, a portly dark haired man. He was looking down at me and my foot was out of the covers and rubbing up against his coat, I could actually feel it as I tried to asked him, “who are you?” He turned to a side profile and I noticed his black hair was up in a bun like a Samurai Warrior. He turned to me and then burst like a bubble and disappeared. I got up and ran into my parents room and hid behind their couch in their bedroom. My mom found me and was screaming at me, because they had just returned from a party and were undressing and talking and didn’t see me hiding there, so my dad deposited me back in my bedroom and I didn’t sleep the rest of the night. Who was that man by my bed?
I write down all the dreams I remember, no matter how little or detailed, and after doing that for over 30 years, I went back to dreams I had like 20 years ago and they seem to parallel my life now. I went back farther in my dream journals, like 30 years ago, and my dreams then really sounded like the way my life is now. And when I was 6 years old, I dreamed that I was older and walking down a desert road and it was early in the morning, I was wearing a Mexico wrap and I was really old. I saw my face and had wrinkles. I awoke and was crying. I was at summer camp in Maine at that time, and the counselor came in and asked why I was crying and I said I was afraid that if I went back to sleep I would wake up as an old lady like I saw myself in the dream. Now I see myself back then, and the dream itself came true, I was walking with a Mexican wrap and my hair is now blond, and I do have wrinkles and am older, and I thought back to that dream I had as a 6 year old, and I could not get over how that dream sort of came true…
Last night I had a dream where my boyfriend was a brown dog who lived in a yard – I might have been a dog as well, I’m not sure. He left the yard to go inside the house to his family, and while he was gone I was seduced or raped by a kitten. I had to lock the kitten’s paws in the gate for 40 hours, after which it would not be able to tell anyone what had happened.
It was very bizarre. Lately I’ve had quite a few dreams like this that involve sex but are not really ‘sexy’… What does this mean?
Some evidence in the past, from scientific research found that dreams are a way that the subconscious cleanses itself by pushing scenarios into the conscious.
Ok I rarely get a dream. Ussually I don’t have any , or I don’t remember them at all when I wake up. Sometimes during the month when I do something or an event happened it all feels like deja Vu. Can someone explain this
Becky, I can’t speak for your dream, however, I have had these dreams of snakes in the past. However, It took me years to figure out that it represents a warning, of somone close maybe a snake in your life in your house, etc, the thing is only you will know in time what or who it is.
Normally, warning you of some form of betrayal, that you are not paying attention too (apparently) because they keep coming back to you as a warning of something happening or has happened that you are not aware of or over- looking
Are the snakes in your home, or on your job This will determine what direction to focus on.
i THINK IF i WAS sooooo PUZZLED BY A DREAM,i WOULD ASK JESUS IN PRAYER, AND LISTEN TO MY HEART FOR A REPEATING THOUGHT AS THE ANSWER. i’M NOT SUPER RELIGIOUS BUT MY INNER VOICE IS JESUS OR GOD IF HIS SON IS WAY BUSY THAT MOMENT. IT ONLY TAKES A MOMENT TO ASK SO I FIGURE LOTS OF PEOPLE, LOTS OF MOMENTS. I HOPE I DID’NT BRING THE BIG GUY’S ATTENTION TO ANYONE THAT JUST NEEDED A JUNIOR GUIDENCE , LEADING TO REHAB OR SOMETHIING….GOOD LORD!
Hello, “Mum”, again. I know you will probably never read this, but I thought I would add one more interpretation to your dream. Since I went with the idea that the 3 cats are the Gods of Wisdom, it may also mean that you are surounded by all kinds of people offering you advice on your pregnancy, or have a choice of more than one doctor to help with your pregnancy and delivery. It could be that the 3 black cats represents doctors or medical information that is acceptable and standard, but you are not completely comfortable with it. The cat that rubbed you may be the doctor or piece of information that you feel most comfortable with. If that’s the case, politely tell the others you will stick with the doctor or information you feel most comfortable with and thank them for their concern. Again, congratulations, and good luck to you.
Dream Interpretations are open to speculation by anybody and dream dictionaries do not fairly relate to the dream itself, only the symbols.
As a Top Contributor in Dream Interpretation (Australia) I personally do not use dream dictionaries. My interpretations are based on the way the person adds details, some of the symbols but as they pertain to the dream and not just the symbols alone.
Although there are some similarites to my interpretations and dream dictionaries, it is purely coincidental. I am not an expert and some of my answers may have no relevance to the person but I do get many Best Answers chosen by the Asker.
Dreams are based on the psychology of the person rather than actual events but, in saying this, they can be based on events and situations pertaining to the dreamer.
Just my interpretation and opinion
Dreams are a resymbolization or representation of the spiritual beings efforts.
Unfortunately, because they are so vivid people believe them to be overly significant; if one is honest with themself, logic reads a dream’s events and one’s efforts and decisions can be plainly seen.
I find dream interpretation to be overly superstitous and symbolizing sterotypes into generic meaning.
I applaud the bona fide psychics.
I will attempt to interpret your dreams if you ask but please be honest and include a full description so I can deliver an accurate appraisal.

The 1st pregnant dream was me having a girl but i had lost her in daycare but shortly found her again.

The third dream which was last night of my boyfriend having a baby, not by me but i was with him taking care of it…i found this dream really weird because the because the baby in my dream is by a couple that i know off of Facebook, so i don’t know why i would of dream of it being my boyfriend and that woman’s baby together. Maybe I have trust issues but I have been having quite a few baby dreams some months apart..Can u please help me understand this?
The really good news is that through shamanic healing you can be cleared of your emotional, mental, spiritual and energetic blocks in a very gentle, yet deep way . Unlike many other healing methods, the healing techniques I use theta healing, shamanic healing, soul retrieval and spiritual coaching work to permanently clear up your issues.
I keep having a dream where I go back in time, to high school years, and try to warn friends and family about what is going to happen in the future. For example. I tell my grandpa and grandma things are going to be really rough but you end up coming into a lot of money in the futrure. I tell a kid I went to high school with to try and keep your brother away from drugs because he is going to die. I tell my mom my brother is going to get sick and almost die, but he pulls though. This is so weird and I keep having it. Any ideas as to if this means anything??
I had a dream about 3 dogs,
a pharoah dog that was red,
a pharoah dog that was light brown and then a grey schnauzer.
What does it mean ?
I had a dream were I was walking with Sam (a girl) and in front of me was a kid called Joseph. He turns around and says to Sam that he will fight anyone for her. Next day I learn that they are dating. What does my dream mean?
I was lightly sleeping on my couch and I heard my cousin scream “Who are you and what do you want!” I awoke and said, “It’s me Leslie, your cousin!” About a week after that she called me out of the blue to say she’d been having chemo treatments and it was very rough, and I remembered my dream. Family and close ties are linked by dreams. When I had a colonoscopy and the doctor was putting me under, instead of counting, I said the name of my first lover over and over. This guy had died in a tragic car accident 8 years prior. As I went under I had a dream I was standing in a huge cavern. There was the guy standing on a podium dressed in woven brown tight pants, black shiny shoes and a silk shirt that didn’t fit quite right. He was like a statue and when I ran up to him he looked down at me and asked, “Who are you?” I awoke from the procedure. I feel that was him in spirit dreaming and he doesn’t know me because we were together 25 years ago, it was odd.
I’ve had this nightmare for several nights since December 4th, 2011. My dream begins on a normal day at my high school. At lunch in the courtyard, someone pulls out a gun and shoots into the sky. People scream and run while the shooter keeps shooting at random people and into the sky. Cops try to stop him but they eventually get shot. Then, the shooter points at me. I beg him to not shoot at me and spare my life, but he shoots directly at my face and that’s when I wake up. It’s been happening for at least 3 nights where someone with a gun is involved. On another night in my dream, I was riding the bus home. A red light caused my bus to stop. Then, another bus pulls up to the right-side of my window. In the other bus beside me, the same person from the night before in my dream has the same gun. I can’t see his face since it’s covered by a hoodie, but he points the gun directly at my face and shoots. And again, I wake up. Yesterday, the same dream happened. I was walking to my class in the crowded hallway when the unidentified shooter was nearby. He pulled out his gun and pointed it to me again, but a boy jumps in front of me and takes the bullet himself in the right-side of his chest. The boy falls to the ground, but everyone else walks by not even noticing that he’s injured. I kneel down to the floor seeing his injury. A mask was covering his face. I removed the mask to see who the boy who saved my life was. As I pulled the mask of his face, I realized it was a boy I used to like until I gave up in this October. He whispered faintly to me, “Phoebe, I…I love…”, and then he took his last breath and died in my arms. The tardy bell rang and I stood there in the hallway with him, crying and lonely. That’s all I have so far in my dream. Could someone break my dream down detail by detail and please tell me what this means?
