end of the world
I was wondering what it means to dream of seeing fire balls hitting the earth and destroying whatever they hit. I had a dream that I was here on earth living like a normal person, and then I went outside my house and noticed fire balls coming from the sky – landing on houses and […]
celebration of intellect
I would appreciate having your analysis of the dream described below. Its broad outlines are still quite vivid in my mind although it happened at least six weeks ago, and I have put nothing down in writing about it until now. First, here are a few biographical details. I am a retired lawyer in my […]
my grandparent’s house
Hi Anonymous— If neither you nor your sister recall any disturbing events that occurred at your grandparent’s house, then we are directed to search for a symbolic understanding of your dreams—one that could appear independently in both your, and your sister’s, minds. If you were especially close to your grandparents, it is possible that their […]
break-up
I broke up with my girlfriend and I have had a few dreams about her since, but one left me puzzled. She was lying in bed on top of an actor of a movie I had just previously seen. He was telling her how much he loved her and that she wouldn’t want to know […]
last dance
Hi Sue – Could you please tell us more about your relationship with this man? Is he a mentor figure? The dream appears to have religious/spiritual overtones, indicated by the candles and 3 steps. What are your associations and memories with the polished wood? Also, and perhaps most important, think back to 6 years ago, […]
sad return
It always begins with me coming home from service in the army…which I served in for 3 years. I am coming home to my high school sweetheart who I was with all my teenage life. She won’t talk to me, ignores me, at which time I become angry and go beserk, not at her but […]
visited by my grandmother
Hi Anonymous – Thank you for sharing your moving dream. We will always wonder if, during these dream encounters with loved ones who are dying or deceased, we actually make contact with their lingering spirit, or if we merely are working out, in our own minds, the emotions we feel which surround their passing. So […]
ignored by ex-girlfriend
I had this very erie dream about two nights ago. I was walking down the beach, admiring the waves and the beautiful sunset when an ex-girlfriend of mine bumped into me. She was more beautiful then I can ever remember and she was also standing with another guy, holding hands. She simply shrugged me off […]
a symbolic death
Hi Liz – I believe your difficulty deciphering this dream – as you suggest – is related to your fear of discovering its meaning. Fortunately, however, this dream appears only to be encouraging you to grow—to take those next tentative steps toward full adulthood. I am sorry to learn of your brother’s early passing. His […]
sex with my step-daughter
About 2 years ago my wife was going through a difficult time. She was working very long hours to keep from dealing with the situation. My 18-year-old stepdaughter and I had to work together to keep the family from falling apart. That brings me to the dreams I’ve been having about my wife and my […]
mother dies
THE CORRECT ANSWER IS… C. A concern for their health and longevity Hi Kelly— Anytime we dream of a loved one dying, our hearts sink and our apprehension level skyrockets. Was the dream a warning? Was it a premonition? Your dream most likely reflects concerns about your mother’s health or advancing years. If your mother […]
about to die
Hi Vivian— The metaphor of death appears in your dream as a symbol of change and transition. An earlier period of growth and development in your life is “passing away”—in preparation for a new beginning. Given the background you provide, we know that you recently have made several large changes in your life. Your decision […]
