floating

Hi Vince – It’s an unusual dream, and I’m not sure I really know the answer, but I’ll offer you some thoughts. The dream occurred twice, each time after watching this woman’s show on television. The show is religious in nature, and I think religion, in all of us, conjures up a host of associations […]

an experience

Hi Rose – I am sorry to hear of your friend’s death, and of the other passengers on that flight. It is sad when anybody dies, and especially sad when people die young. Your dream is extraordinary, and I am sure it has caused you many questions. First, I would like to say that I […]

Years ago when I moved to California I happened to watch a television program on an independent network. The program was called “Praying Hands” and was on after midnight on Sundays. The lady that hosted the show seemed kind of strange and she had a teddy bear named Puddin’ Tame that she would tell the […]

gambling

I would rather believe in the psychological science than in wives’ tales so I’m seeking your interpretation of this dream that I’ve had twice now in the past two weeks: I’m in a casino with my parents. I’m quite opposed to gambling because I’ve seen it destroy lives so I’m not a gambler normally although […]

guardian angel

I was in a room together with my son and daughter and my former in-laws. They were all years younger than their actual age. Suddenly, a male angel dressed in white flew in on a gust of wind, landed in front of me and said, “It’s time.” My children and I started to cry. I […]

guardian angel

Hi Anonymous— It’s little wonder that you are curious about the meaning of this dream, especially since it appears to be divinely inspired. It’s not every night we are visited by angels! The angel’s arrival at the beginning of the dream — ambiguously announcing “It’s time” (time to die and go to heaven, or just […]

healing

I want to discuss an idea that I’ve come across and have been playing with over the last while. As you know, dreams occur at many different levels and can be interpreted in many different ways. Some (if not all) are very powereful metaphors (as you mentioned) and therefore we can derive meaning at that […]

hold on

I would like to give some background information. I am a 34 year old female, married (my second marriage). My very close and dear childhood and adult friend, Amy, committed suicide 6 years ago. She suffered from Bi-Polar depression. She has come to me in many dreams, and when she and I spoke during these […]

remembering dreams

Hi Aaron – The fact is that some people are much better recallers of their dreams than others. Despite the fact that we dream about 100 minutes per night, we probably all know at least one person who, every day, is able to relate last night’s dreams in exacting detail. Meanwhile, some us awaken without […]

in a church

I saw in my dream that I was a person through whom people could experience a new world—not our earth. I couldn’t see or touch this new world, I only felt it through my senses and experience of it. I had a very good feeling. I was in an empty, dark church or temple. I […]

stranded!

Hi Vel— I think your signature holds the clue we need to understand your dreams. For whatever reason, it is apparent that you have begun to associate your old friend, who is divorced and never had children, with fears of losing your own family. This is why your dream shows you becoming “stuck” in her […]

it’s dark

Hi Nicole – Welcome to the wonderful world of “lucid” dreaming. Lucid dreams are defined as dreams in which we know that we are dreaming while we still are dreaming. Lucid dreams are unusual, because most of the time we don’t recognize that we “must be dreaming” – even when we do some of the […]
