Understanding The World Of Dreams

Dreams give us a fascinating look at the subconscious world, and many see the interpretation of dreams as a way to detect and treat real-world problems. This reliance on dream analysis actually has several underpinnings, and many psychologists and therapists use dreams to treat trauma patients. Survivors of this trauma often suffer from recurrent dream and nightmare scenarios, and the fact that dream therapy works shows a strong connection between the conscious world and the dream world. But for most people, analyzing dreams is a fun pastime and a source of insight into everyday life.

Alien
There are several types of alien dreams. Dreams in which the dreamer is an alien can represent that he or she is unsure about a new house, new town or new job.

On the other hand, dreaming about being abducted or probed by an alien being can represent a fear of the unknown, or a feeling that your life is being invaded, perhaps by an overbearing relative, friend or coworker.

Baptism
Dreaming of a baptism, whether your own or someone else’s, is generally thought to be a symbol of renewal or rebirth.

Burial
Dreams of a burial can be symbols for the disposal of unwanted habits, or even the breakup of an unhappy relationship.

Cemetery
Seeing a cemetery in your dreams, or visiting a grave site, can represent a longing for lost times or lost love ones. It can also represent a more generalized sort of grief.

Clouds
The meaning of clouds depends in large part on their nature. Dreams about white puffy clouds can represent contentment, while seeing storm clouds in your dream could represent fear about an impending change.

Digging
Dreams about digging can have many different meanings. Digging in a dream can mean you are trying to recover something that you have lost, or that you have been trying to understand yourself better.

Drinking
Drinking in a dream often symbolizes a longing, or thirst, for something that has not been attained. Dreamers should pay attention to what they are seeking in their waking lives.

Earthquake
Dreaming about being in an earthquake can represent a feeling that your life is not under your control. Of course people who have actually experienced earthquakes may recall the real event in dreams as well.

Fat
Dreams about fat can also have several meanings. Dreaming about being overweight can indicate anxiety about appearance and body image. On the other hand, fat can also symbolize knowledge and wisdom.

Flood
Dreaming about a flood, or dreams of drowning, often indicate that the dreamer is feeling overwhelmed by something in his or her life.

Hourglass
Dreams of an hourglass can symbolize that time is running out. Many people dream of an hourglass when pressed to make an important decision on short notice.

Judgment
Dreaming about a judge, or being judged, may indicate feelings of guilt or regret.

Map
Dreaming about a map, or about being lost, can symbolize a need for guidance, or a quest for leadership. It could indicate that the dreamer is unsure what decision to make.

Old Man
Dreaming about an unfamiliar old man can symbolize wisdom or forgiveness.

Prison
Dreaming of prison, or of being in prison, can be a manifestation of hidden feelings of guilt.

Sex
Dreaming about sex can indicate sexual desire or a longing for closeness and intimacy.

Zero
The number zero is a symbol for the infinite. The exact meaning of the number zero within a dream, however, is almost entirely dependent on its context within the dream.
