"I dreamt of a light bulb falling and stabbing me and then being rushed to the hospital by my best friend and boyfriend. What does this mean?"

It mean's that you are not ready to face the reality of a situation. Maybe you were not able to accomplish some goal. It could also mean a good idea gone to waste.

It would be helpful to know what was going on in your waking life at the time that you had the dream, specifically major events or circumstances that might have involved your best friend and boyfriend. Also, how did you feel IN the dream? Feelings in dreams are never disguised, so how you felt IN your dream is how you really feel about the subject of your dream.

There are some telling clues without knowing all of that, suggesting that this was a warning dream. Here are links to the definitions of some of the key symbols in your dream:

light (var of light bulb): dreamdoctor.com/component/dreams/?contro...task=details&id=1176

stabbed: dreamdoctor.com/component/dreams/?contro...task=details&id=1777

emergency: dreamdoctor.com/component/dreams/?contro...&task=details&id=703

hospital: dreamdoctor.com/component/dreams/?contro...task=details&id=1031

While it's possible that your dream reflects your feelings that an idea of yours (represented by the light bulb) exploded and blew back on you, causing you harm and requiring the help of those closest around you for support, it's hard to say for certain without knowing your waking life background at the time of the dream.

Please let us know. Thanks!

You're welcomed. But don't feel too bad about it though. Just do some introspection and retrospection and next time act on your idea, don't ever procrastinate or think that your idea isn't good enough. Take care.

My boyfriend has been spending the last few saturday nights sleeping at a friends. He hadn't been home yet and I was feeling upset and I had just finished texting my best friend who I am under the impression may have feelings for me.

Dramatic life I have!

Given that waking life background, do the symbol definitions help explain not only your dream, but why you had it? The light bulb could even have been an allusion to that Motel 6 ad where "we'll leave the light on for you"... and when your boyfriend doesn't come home, the light bulb explodes. Your upset about that and having to contend with feelings surrounding a text expressing your concern to a best friend who may also have feelings for you, is definitely enough to require a symbolic hospital visit. The fact that your best friend and boyfriend are there when you go to the hospital is your mind driving home the point.

Take heart. Your dreams will guide your through the drama. Just follow your dreams!
