Dream Dictionary Part 1

What does your dreams tell you?
Here are some of the meanings of your Dreams,
From the Book Dream Dictionary for Dummies

A

above/ascend:
Physical: If an object or person is above
you, you are giving your power or energy away. If you
are above, you feel you have greater influence and
power.
Emotional: You admire or resent someone
above you, or feel in control or superior when you are
above them.
Mental-Spiritual: If something is above
you, you need more perspective and understanding
concerning that idea. It might be an important missing
piece of your life purpose. If you are above, you have
keen insights about the issue below. Ascending signifies
a desire for the big picture, that your attention is
on future goals, or your awareness is moving into
higher states of consciousness.

accident: 
Accident dreams aren’t necessarily something
you can sense before they happen. 
Physical: If the dream has intuitive “weight” (totally subjective to
you), it could indicate a potential problem. You are
probably sensing a mistake in the works: an energy
flow or process needing revision before you go too far
and get in trouble. Slow down and evaluate things.
Emotional: You are too emotional, or attached, or a situation
is about to go out of control, and you’re feeling
anxious about what could happen. 
Mental-Spiritual:
You need to pay closer attention to something. You
lack key knowledge, or are out of alignment with your

purpose. Consider your deepest motives and wisdom.

acorn: 
Physical: You are looking at your potential,
what you can accomplish, how much talent and
endurance you have, and how ready you are to act.
You are looking at the idea of how much value can be
concentrated in a small act, or how the first step of a
process influences the outcome. 
Emotional: You are
feeling motives and inner strength, reassuring yourself
that you can do what you intend. If there is a stash of
acorns, you are hoarding what you consider valuable,
or need to conserve resources. 
Mental-Spiritual: You're touching into your core self, into your life’s destiny or blueprint, sensing your purpose and what you are
built to do.

actor/actress/acting: 
Physical: You are looking at your
personality, how you live your life, and present yourself
to the public. If you are acting, you’re examining
the roles and qualities you portray to your “audience”
in daily life. Look for tips about improving your performance.
Emotional: If you’re uncomfortable acting,
you may feel superficial or forced to please others.
If you’ve forgotten your lines, you may feel anxiety
about a real-life situation. A phenomenal performance
means you are showing yourself how to be uninhibited
and unselfconscious. 
Mental-Spiritual: You’re ready to
expand your self-expression, experience more joy, and
allow the energy of others, your audience, to help you
be your most dynamic self. You are exploring the idea
that you can understand anyone by walking in their
shoes.

adversary/enemy: 
Physical: You are facing an aspect
of your life or body that you physically fear, a situation
you can’t control, an illness, or a bad habit like an
addiction. 
Emotional: You’re dealing with a repressed
part of yourself or may feel threatened by someone or a situation. Whether you fight or flee, and how you feel
about the action you take, tells you what you need to do. 
Mental-Spiritual: You’re integrating an important
part of yourself that needs to be loved and understood.
What seems negative holds a hidden gift or talent.

air: 
Physical: You need to improve your vitality with
more oxygen, by breathing deeply, or improving your

movement through streams of thought and bodies
of knowledge, from the lower realm of individual
thought, to the higher, shared collective consciousness
where there is freedom from limiting beliefs.
Encountering anything in the air represents fixed
beliefs based on fear, interferences to clear thought,
or specific ideas you should pay attention to.

airplane/airport: 
Airplanes represent your focus
within the mental and spiritual realms. An airport represents
a departure point for a transition in your life.
Physical: A small plane means you’re focusing on a
localized reality. Taking off shows a new venture is
ready to occur. If a plane can’t get off the ground, the
venture may be stuck or held back. Landing signifies
bringing inspiration, ideas, or energies back to incorporate
into your life or body. 
Missing a plane means
you’re missing an opportunity. 
Emotional: A hang glider represents an experience of personal joy and inspiration. The way you feel while riding in or piloting
an aircraft shows how you deal with the unknown.
Having to fly a plane when you don’t know how
indicates you’re reaching for heights you haven’t
attained before and are anxious. 
Mental-Spiritual: You’re focusing on your freedom and power to rise
above challenges and obtain higher perspective. A
plane crash signals the end of your involvement with
a series of beliefs. A jet represents concepts you hold
in common with many other people. A rocket indicates
you’re moving rapidly toward spiritual knowledge. A
UFO symbolizes a collective consciousness catalyzed
by many souls of similar developmental awareness.

warning yourself to pay attention to your health,
habits, inner tensions and pain, or how you act in the
world.

alert to a new period of heightened creativity.

aliens:

could function more elegantly, or on part of your
anatomy as represented in the exaggerated features of
the alien. Big eyes might mean you’re trying to see
something more thoroughly and deeply. 
Emotional:
You’re focusing on your experience of being an alien,
feeling like a stranger in your social setting; there are
aspects of yourself you’ve defined as foreign that need
to be familiarized. You need to experience a situation
freshly, as if you’re from another planet. 
Mental-Spiritual: You are focused on your own higher awareness,
possibly with a technological orientation or
multidimensional wisdom. Listen for the message or
teachings.

life, taking a nontraditional route, changing plans as you go, possibly hiding from public view. An alley is a

and experiences that are slightly negative or dangerous.

Mental-Spiritual: You are experiencing a
sudden breakthrough to higher awareness that you
hadn’t expected.

amputation:
Physical: You are experiencing the radical
removal of something from your life that is no longer
necessary. Losing a body part points to the need to

an ability symbolized by the amputated part. Losing
your right arm might mean you need to pay more
attention to how you manifest results. You are cut off
from a source of vitality.

of separation, loss, helplessness, disempowerment, or
even punishment concerning the function or misuse

and energy, or drawing in healing help. You are

protection, and guidance; you are asking for help or
developing these qualities in yourself. You are attuning
to your soul vibration, remembering who you
really are.

the animal for clues. If you are bitten by an animal, it
may be important as a “power animal” or protector.
Emotional: If the animal is injured or trapped, you
need to heal or free a part of yourself. If an animal
threatens you, you need to develop that animal’s
strength or express your own wildness. Mental-

to develop talents associated with the animal’s expertise:
the eagle’s vision, the wolf’s loyalty, the butterfly’s
transformational ability.

ants: 
Physical: You are focusing on diligence, hard
work, and foresight. You need to work more closely

the realization of the fruit of your work. An apple’s
connection to health may mean you need to pay attention

apple cores mean that your goals have little value or
may even be harmful. Beautiful ripe apples mean you

knowledge, are a sign of spiritual health, that you have
much vitality, wisdom, and richness to offer the world.

Reaching to heaven invites revelation and joy.

arrow/bull’s-eye: 
Physical: If you’re hit by an arrow,
look to that area of your body; tension, pain, or congestion
could be building toward a problem. An arrow
punctures a blocked area and releases pressure. If you
miss the bull’s-eye, you need to focus and be in the
flow before you act. 
Emotional: An arrow symbolizes a
thought that seeks connection and understanding. A
bull’s-eye is a goal or “Aha!” If you are shooting, you
feel confident about achieving a goal. If you hit a bull’seye,
you feel successful. If you’ve been shot, you could
be wounded by sharp words or the selfish actions of
others. Being shot by Cupid’s arrow opens you to love
and romance.

at old values, beliefs, world views, and habits from
which you no longer derive benefit. You feel bereft at

or loved one who has died. A loved one’s cremated

person or trying to communicate with him or her.

wounds.

to inspiration, ready to live more spiritually.

receive your self-expression. You are looking at how
much physical affection or assistance you receive
from, or give to, others. You are showing yourself

are to show up in your life in a bigger way, or how
