Is Everyone in Your Dream a Representation of You?

Recently I asked in a Facebook group, “If you had a dream journal guide to understand your dream meanings, what would you want in that guide?” One woman commented how she was confused by Carl Jung concept that every person in her dream was a version of her or something within herself. Here is my response:

This concept is confusing to most people; we are all one, yet who can see Hitler or Charles Manson within themselves? And what about dreams that are visitation from our departed loved one?

Let’s face it, there are times it’s easier to comprehend this theory than others. For instance, I was doing inner child work when my niece was two or three years old (over two decades ago); therefore, it was a no-brainer her character was my own inner child. Perhaps you’re dreaming about a former teacher you admire, which can be symbolic for your own inner teacher or you are the students’ favorite teacher in the school where you teach at.

But could you really have traits of Hitler or Charles Manson? The majority of the population, thankfully, aren’t mass murders. Nonetheless, dreaming about either one of these men may be symbolic of their characteristics inside of you. These traits are: superiority, manipulation, leadership, organizing skills, or inspiring folks to take action on a cause. Whether these are positive or negative qualities depends upon each person’s situation.

Now let’s investigate dreams about our loved ones who have taken the journey to the other side. A dream where few words are exchanged or feels like a visit, usually is a visitation from your loved one. When your dream is filled with symbols, scene changes, anger or other uncomfortable emotions; then more than likely the dream meaning is versions of yourself or an issue within you to resolve.

Are post-traumatic stress disorder dreams (PTSD dreams) about you? It is difficult to imagine yourself as the perpetrator, unless there is a part of you that wants to hurt others or this was a past life dream. Although, PTSD dreams are usually about healing the past trauma of an event or events you experienced.

When I ponder different categories such as environment dreams or recurring dreams, Carl Jung philosophy is usually accurate. An example of this is when you dream about the call of nature, the majority of the time you will visit the toilet upon awakening. Recurring dreams are having the same dream repeat itself in an exact or similar fashion to prompt you to resolve a certain situation in your life.

Precognitive dreams may be premonitions of the future to warn or assist you; hence, it’s about you. Yet, this isn’t always the case as many people have dreams of events that have nothing to do with them. Whether it’s an earthquake, an act of crime, or a tragic accident occurring close to home or around the globe. A Higher Source has a reason for these folks to dream about these events, even if they may or may not find out the purpose of their dreams.

This topic of you being everyone is a fascinating subject to contemplate! What is your opinion on this topic? By the way, I would love to hear what you’re looking for a dream interpretation guide.

Dreaming of Snakes and Spiders is it Common?

Eww! Gross! This is a common response most folks have upon waking up from a dream about snakes and/or spiders. Or perhaps some people may think it’s awesome, especially a little boy or if they’re into reptiles and insects. These two symbols seem to baffle many of why they would dream about spiders and snakes; however, it’s really quite common which will be showcased on this blog.

After writing my latest column for In the Dreamtime at Bellesprit Magazine, where a mother asked what her son’s recurring dreams meant on this topic, I wondered how many columns I’ve written regarding snakes and spiders. Therefore, I started going through my desktop file folder for my dreamtime columns that are listed in alphabetical order by year and month. By the time I reached the month of February, I already had three columns! There’s probably more, but I’ve been a columnist since 2013, and honestly, I was too lazy to continue looking.

The following four In the Dreamtime columns and three blog posts from this website validate the fact of how common the dream symbols of spider and snakes are.

In the Dreamtime

October 2018 column is about a boy who had recurring dreams about killing or almost killing a spider, then a snake burrows into his body. Read more at Bellespirt Magazine. 
February 2018 column is from a reader who not only had a dream about spiders, but also many other symbols. Read this fascinating dream at Bellespirit Magazine.
February 2017 column’s dream was sent in by a dreamer who dreamt about snakes and spiders while riding a bicycle. Read more at Bellesprit Magazine.
August 2015 column has one dream regarding snakes and another dream about spiders sent by two different readers. Read these dreams at Bellespirit Magazine.

Three Blogs from Learn Dream Interpretation

In this blog post, I used the snake symbol as an example for common meanings, to illustrate how this symbol is unique for each dreamer. To read, please click How to Understand Your Dreams Special Symbols.
My guest, Katherien Lundin, wrote an interesting blog post on the symbolism of spiders. Learn more at Dreaming of Spiders.
This post shares common meanings about snake bites with an emphasis of figuring out your unique dream meaning. This blog also uses one of my personal dreams. To read more, please click Dreams about Being Bitten by a Snake.

Although snake and spiders symbolism is common in dreams; remember, everyone is unique. What the symbol means to one person will be completely different to someone else.

Three Commonalities of Dream Interpretation and Psychic Abilities

Are you wondering what psychic abilities and dream interpretation have in common? This concept may confuse some people since dream interpretation symbolism is more complex to figure out than the symbols we have when we’re awake. However, they both exercise our right brain, while connecting us to our unconscious mind and the universe.

You can continue reading or listen to the podcast on iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, Podbean, or the player down below.

Here are three important similarities they both have:

Disconnecting from the Logical World

We humans are bombarded everyday with: rules, logical ideas, to do list, material must haves, social media, news, and everything else that we need to deal with while living on the planet Earth. It’s a wonder we have time to think!

Upon analyzing your dreams or getting in touch with your psychic gifts, you need to detach from everyday living and the noise of the world. It’s time to shut out the world and have “you time” to quiet your left brain and expand your right brain.

Can you do this with noise and people around you? Yes, but I wouldn’t recommend it for beginners, although the more experience you have, the easier it becomes to use these gifts while interacting in the world. This is why experienced readers are able to do readings at a loud psychic fair.

Going Within to Know Yourself

When a student begins a psychic development class, the teacher always recommends meditation to quiet the mind. By quieting the mind, messages from your angels, guides, and ancestors are revealed. These messages may come through as: hearing a voice, receiving visions, feeling an emotion or sensation, smelling a scent, or having an inner knowing. Guidance on how to live or how to overcome issues often are received.

Interpreting your dreams also requires you to venture within yourself to comprehend the wisdom of your dream. Dream interpretation requires you to reflect on: a symbol or symbols for your unique meaning, emotions that occurred during the dream, past or present issues being presented in your dream, and then integrating it all together.

These insights occur to assist you to remove blocks in your life as you journey to become more enlightened; nonetheless, your dreams and/or psychic messages are useless if you avoid taking any actions.

Trusting the Information You’re Receiving

This often is the most difficult part to do as many of us have the natural instinct to doubt without evidence to back it up. Psychic information and dream meanings are often a puzzle for us to decode or for future events to occur to fully understand the information. Each one of us needs to go through our own personal experiences as everyone is unique.

Journaling your dreams and the psychic messages are what will help you trust your psychic and dream wisdom because you have proof when certain events occur. Nevertheless, it’s important to act in faith without knowing if the information is correct. For instance: if your gut is telling you to put a bathing suit in your purse on a winter day, do it. If you dream about turning down a date with someone you’re crushing on, and later on that day this person ask you out, then ask for a rain check or say no.

What’s the worst that can happen if the information turns out to be wrong? Now you know that you misinterpreted the psychic message or dream meaning. Review your journal to see if you misunderstood the dream or if it was your ego instead of your intuition. Or perhaps you interpreted the message correctly, yet it has not happened yet.

What is the best that can happen if you’re right? Let’s use the bathing suit and date examples from above. You are prepared if you end up at an unexpected party where there’s a pool or hot tub. There’s an unexpected emergency on the day of the date that takes you out of town, which your potential mate would misinterpret as you were blowing him/her off. Or you discover the person you been crushing on is really a criminal.

Now, can you understand the commonalities of dream interpretation and psychic abilities?

Learn more how emotions aid analyzing dream by reading Emotions in Dreams, Aids in Dream Interpretation.

Here are twelve dream meanings for alligators:

Go within to your primal instincts.
Someone in your life is behaving in a cold blooded fashion.
Either you need to or stop being so cold blooded.
You’re feeling cold.
Encountering a fearful situation.
It’s time to open your mouth to express yourself.
Close your mouth and keep quiet with something in your life.
You’ve bitten off more than you can chew.
A person in your life is a threat to you.
Somebody is silently stalking you.
In this situation you need to have thick skin.
Your dark side needs to emerge to be cleansed.

Most people would agree that alligators tend to be creepy and terrifying; however, my alligator adventure proved they also have a loving side to them. Check out the photo gallery for some gator love.
