Flying Joyfully through the Air; Swimming Joyfully

Whizzing along in space, feeling the wind, sensing a delicious freedom is probably the all-time favorite dream. Although this theme may evolve as an escape out of a fearful situation, dream flying soon becomes a joy-filled activity. A similar feeling of pleasure can emerge in dreams of moving effortlessly through water.

Ladder : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Ladder

Ladder

To dream of a ladder being raised for you to ascend to some height, your energetic and nervy qualifications will raise you into prominence in business affairs.

To ascend a ladder, means prosperity and unstinted happiness.

To fall from one, denotes despondency and unsuccessful transactions to the tradesman, and blasted crops to the farmer.

To see a broken ladder, betokens failure in every instance.

To descend a ladder, is disappointment in business, and unrequited desires.

To escape from captivity, or confinement, by means of a ladder, you will be successful, though many perilous paths may intervene.

To grow dizzy as you ascend a ladder, denotes that you will not wear new honors serenely. You are likely to become haughty and domineering in your newly acquired position.

Falling : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Falling symbolizes the action of returning to awake consciousness

Falling symbolizes the action of returning to awake consciousness.

There is an old wive's tale which says if you dream you are falling and you hit the bottom you will die. This is not true. Falling symbolizes the mental action of returning to awake consciousness therefore at the time the dreamer would "hit bottom" he/she usually wakes and the dream images are no longer present.

Falling : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Falling or drowning

Falling or drowning

Falling is one of the most common nightmares among people of all ages, and may be a reflection of feeling insecure, helpless or of having no support or solid grounding. Some people may actually fall from their beds during this dream.

Dreaming about drowning is less frequent, and often occurs when a person feels overwhelmed.

Both scenarios involve life-or-death situations and can be traced to prehistoric origins. Garfield says that dreams of falling reflect a time when our ancestors took risks when climbing trees. Falling dreams of modern day often take place from high buildings, elevators and rooftops.

Likewise, dreams of drowning go to our inborn need to breathe for survival.

People often awake to "escape'' the danger in the dreams.

A person's age and medical circumstances can influence these dreams. Toddlers and young children, as well as older people, are prone to more falls in waking life. People with heart conditions that cause fluid buildup in the lungs or those with severe colds may dream of drowning.

Have you had that feeling of zooming through the air, feeling free, unhindered?

Flying often becomes a person's favorite dream. These can inspire the dreamer, lifting him to spiritual heights or filling him with creative notions. Pleasurable swimming may mean freely exploring your depths; dreams of dance may be a metaphor for moving freely through your life.

Love : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Embrace or Love

Embrace or Love

The mirror opposite of dreams of fleeing from a dangerous pursuer are those in which the dreamer happily embraces another. These figures may be animal or human (celebrities, movie stars, politicians, royals), angels, imaginary people, or the boy or girl next door. The defining element of this category is pleasurable physical contact.

Abandoned

Watching a child realise they are alone is a heart-rending event. In a moment, he or she goes from content to worried to panicked. One of our most primitive fears is the fear of being separated from family, friends or society. In dreams, being abandoned can have several connotations that derive from psychological or physical experience. The primary interpretive question is: `Who abandoned the dreamer, and why?'

Being individually abandoned by a significant other can represent a feeling of insecurity in a relationship. This may reflect concerns about the feelings of another towards you. Are you genuinely receptive to the idea of being loved and valued, or do you view another?s affection as show?

Perhaps you view yourself as lovable as you are known, but fear that more revelation about you will lead to isolation. This could be especially true if there is a taboo experience being kept secret from the person who has abandoned you (e.g. marital infidelity). Dreams of this nature may be recurring if as a child your parents extended only conditional affection towards you.

You may see yourself as completely abandoned. This can represent a major sense of being unable or unworthy to fit into society. In this type of dream, you may not be alone in a physical sense, but lack connection with the people around you. Self-esteem issues, taboo experiences or your ability to receive love should be areas of investigation.

People who view themselves as completely abandoned within a dream often find themselves lacking connection in many day-to-day relationships or experiences. Lastly, you may see yourself as ritually abandoned. This dream experience finds others leaving you for 'your own good?. Where have you left 'unfinished business' in relationships with others? Conversely, have others left your expectations unmet or altogether unrecognised?

Head : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Head

Head

 Ask people where in the body they are, most will point to their head.

• Keep your head! - keep calm
• Head off - the chase/ beat/outwit
• Don't lose your head - stay rational
• Ahead - in front of...

I once did a dream analysis for a lady who said to me "I don't know what was happening but I had to get a head - like worzel gummidge (an old children's television show about a scarecrow who had different heads for different occasions). I was running around saying I've got to get a head, I got to get a head..." She understood the symbolism of changing her way of being around different people in her life but knew there was something more. Simply putting "a" and "head" together as one word made everything fall into place! Again puns on words are often used so it is always good to be aware of them.

House : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - House

House

An old house signifies a reunion or renewal of an old association. A new house predicts financial security. Building a house or seeing one under construction forecasts unexpected gain, possibly through a legacy; buying a house indicates a short but exciting love affair; selling a house augurs a release from pressing responsibilities. A dream which featured a house being demolished or being in an empty one suggests you are grieving over a recent loss, broken relationship, or missed opportunity; don't despair, time really DOES heal all things.

Teeth : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Loosing Teeth in a Dream

LOSING TEETH IN A DREAM

Did you know that this is a very common dream? In fact various theories of interpretation have been put forward for this.

It is a dream where you suddenly find that you do not have teeth, or that they keep falling out, suddenly. Certainly bizarre, this dream can be interpreted as a readiness for change.

• Just as you lose milk teeth while moving from child to adulthood, so also this dream is telling you that it is time for a massive change in your attitude to life, or asking you to adapt yourself to new circumstances. This is one of the classical interpretations.
• At a more ground level, it could just mean that you are insecure about certain aspects, or
• It could just mean you are afraid of losing your teeth!

How far do you think the first interpretation is relevant?

Flying : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Flying

FLYING DREAM

You first start dreaming of flying when you are 3 to 5 years old. It is a very common dream, though less prevalent in adults. More than one third of the dreaming population has dreamed of flying one time or the other.

• Flying dreams are known to have a positive relationship with relief from tension and nightmares.
• Lucid dreamers tend to have twice as much of flying dreams.
• An intense emotional condition can also trigger off a flying dream
• The dreams are not exclusive to the post flying machines era. They have occurred in ancient times too, as records in dream books of Babylonian and Egyptian civilizations reveal.
• People with an imaginative personality and creative thinkers have more flying dreams
• Those who fly planes have these dreams, though they rather fly like Superman in their dreams, not in aeroplanes.

    What triggers off a flying dream? The reasons offered for these dreams are

• Psychological - the dreamer has had an intense emotional experience
• Physiological Ð There is a change in the breathing pattern of the dreamer
• Physical -There is an actual physical movement of the bed.
• Precognitive Ð In preparation of a flying trip
• Consciousness Ð Awareness of movement around you

At an emotional level, a flying dream maybe your defence mechanism to ward of obstacles or transcend over them. But where is your flight headed? Are you seeking something in your flight or is it one of pure joy of the experience?

You will have to identify which particular meaning is the most relevant interpretation.

Vehicle : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Vehicle, Car

CAR or VEHICLE: This is supposed to symbolize you in your waking life, in your physical body. Your physical body is used by the soul pretty much like we use a car...it's driven for awhile and we give it gas/nourishment & repairs as needed until it stops running, and then we go back home. Pay attention to your car, which symbolizes your VESSEL/physical body. Are you behind the wheel, or is someone else in control? You want to be in charge of your life, naturally. What is the color & condition of this vehicle? Do you seem to be driving it the right way, on a safe road in good condition, or is the road rocky, winding, or suddenly ends at a cliff? That would signal you need redirection. The bigger the vehicle, the more energy you may be successfully using for your daily lessons, depending on the context of your dream. Note all clues as to how you are faring, and make adjustments accordingly.

Hair : Dream Interpretation Dictionary - Hair

Hair

Like clothes, our hair often makes a statement out who we are to the world. Long, short, dyed, natural; however it is worn gives the outside world a clue to our personality.

If you feel happy with your new hairstyle in a dream it may signify that you are developing a new aspect to yourself and are happy for others to see it.

Losing hair may suggest that you are growing in maturity or losing your strength (the story of Samson and Delilah). Again - much depends upon your own feelings in the dream
