lion eats my cat!
I had a dream in which a lion ate my small kitten. I felt very helpless and couldn’t do anything. Suddenly my housemate (I don’t know this person) had taken the lion in as her own pet. She had no concern that it had eaten my kitten. The lion then continued to eat her grown […]
lion eats my cat!
Hi Claire — Dreams of small animals being eaten or killed by larger, more aggressive ones typically reflect fears for the survival of our own children. Cats in dreams hold strong associations to babies, because we cradle them in our arms (like newborns) and because we often identify them as “our children.” We are responsible […]
fighting back
I have recurring nightmares where people are chasing me and trying to hurt or kill me. The most recent recurring dream is a male chasing me. At the time I’m with other people and sometimes we get split up while running away or I’ve still got one person running with me, but he’s coming for […]
chased
I have been having terrible nightmares for the past few years. I’m always being chased by something/someone that threatens me with death or physical harm. I fight back in the dreams and typically win over whatever “evil” is present, but the dreams are very disturbing to me. I am at the point that I have […]
my career
I am a 26-year-old woman, unmarried and with no current boyfriend, with a decent career and social life. Last night I dreamt that I was out on a golf course playing a strange version of golf, using whiffle balls instead of golf balls, with my soon-to-be roommate (we’ve been friends since we were college roommates).

Hi Tracy – Without knowing the specifics of your personal background – and what stresses you may be enduring or putting up with – I would suggest that your dream sounds familiar in two senses. The first is that it is a chase dream, and the person pursuing you (in the dream that recurs the […]

Jane! You are setting a new standard for the Millenium Superwoman! Two jobs, you have finished your doctorate in Pharmacy, and now you are pursuing your law degree. You clearly are busy, but I also get the impression that your life is full and that you are happy with it. That is, you do not […]

Dear Anonymous— I think your last sentence holds a kernel of insight into your dream. Golf is a game of precision and control. We want to get a very small ball to behave with almost impossible response: to reach a target that is far off in the distance with the greatest economy of attempts. A […]
my old professor
Hi Carolyn— Whenever dreams have us meeting people whom we hold in high regard, who treat us well and who compliment us, it is a sign that our self-esteem is on the rise. The reason why? We are receiving approval from a person whose opinion is valuable to us. Accordingly, your dream really isn’t about […]
my old professor
Last night I had this dream that I saw my old piano professor from college (I received my BM in music). I had studied under him the first three years that I was there, and then he moved to Arizona. I think I spoke to him once since then. That was in 1997. I haven’t […]

in the toilet
I was sitting on a toilet and put a pillow behind my back on the toilet. I tried to go to the bathroom but couldn’t. My doctor came to my house and I showed him a video of my husband and me, the video was in slow motion. As we were watching it, I felt […]
