Dream Symbols

A dream happens every time we sleep. It is a product of our thoughts and emotions and is filled with images that may symbolize its meaning. It may also be a picture of our current situation. While its real purpose is not fully understood, there are different ways by which we can interpret it. This is through the use of dream symbols such as the following.

Water

Water is one of the nature symbols that anybody can see in a dream. It can be interpreted as a pool of emotions, mood or vitality. The emotion linked to it can be decoded depending on what has triggered it to occur in the dream. When one finds water in a dream to be somewhat dangerous, then this can mean that he or she is uncomfortable with her feelings at the moment. If the water shows waves, then it can be interpreted as an overwhelming feeling.

Teeth

There are many meanings that can be attached to seeing teeth in a dream. At one point, it may mean strength or vitality while in another it can also be interpreted as a sign of greed and self-confidence. When one sees teeth loss or breakage in a dream, on the other hand, then it may signify weakening of feelings or attitudes.

Baby

In real life, having a baby is said to be a blessing. This is the reason behind why it is said to symbolize new emotions, concern about the young ones and even a desire to have a child when seen in a dream. Add to that, it can depict one's feelings of vulnerability or worse, the desire to escape from one's responsibilities over something.

Snake

This popular dream symbol is often linked by many to traitors. Truth is that it can be interpreted as a symbol of different emotions. It can actually be a representation of magical forces within us, perhaps the desire to enhance our instincts or primal energies. In other cases, it may also mean renewal or resurrection from a certain incident. When snakes are seen to fall into someone during deep slumber, it may mean struggle for fortune.

Adultery

Seeing a scene of adultery in a dream may depict the current status of a relationship. It may mean either one's feelings of possible betrayal or an emotion that one is alone in handling an affair with someone. Furthermore, it can be interpreted as a sign of physical urge.

Camera

When one sees a camera in a dream, then that can mean the desire to reminisce what has happened in one's past. It also offers one a time to grow in a path he's heading to. At some points, though, it also encourages a person to look at things in a new and brighter perspective.
