Dreams…what do they mean?

The other night I had a dream about an unknown man who was in my house stalking and chasing me. I knew he was there to kill me but I didn’t know why. I have never dreamed of someone trying to kill me. I have had dreams of my family members dying but never in a harsh manner, it was always natural. So, I started questioning what could this mean?

There are a lot of books out there on  dream interpretation. I have not personally read any of them. Since my dream was about being chased , I looked up the meaning of the dream. What I found out was this is the most common dream that people have. Being chased in a dream usually occurs when you feel threatened (not here!) by some waking life situation or person, and that it is a natural reaction to the stress of life. Now the stress in life I can relate with because we all have felt stress at some point in life.

Once I started researching dreams and their interpretations, several articles and books all pretty much say the same thing. Dreams are unique and vary with each individual. There are some common themes however, here are just a few:

Teeth

These dreams symbolize our appearance and power. Dreams of  teeth falling out could indicate lack of confidence, difficulty facing others, or telling lies.

Flying

These dreams could mean taking a big risk or going on an adventure. They usually relate to feelings of fear and or freedom in life.

Appearing Naked

These dreams usually relates to feeling of insecurity and vulnerability. Fear of “being found out” or “caught with your pants down” are prevalent in these Dreams. In some cases you may feel comfortable being nude which says you’re willing to “bare it all”.

These are just a few of the most common dreams we have, and there are thousands of possible interpretations for them. If you want to interpret your dreams, I suggest first keeping a journal by your bedside and write down your dream and everything you remember about it. There are dream dictionary’s you can buy, or you can find them on line. Read through them and really think about what is going on in your life that made this dream come through.

So in reference to my dream, I believe half of the meaning and the other half not so much. But either way, it’s very interesting researching your dreams and their possible meanings. It makes you look at your life and what is going on. I have always heard of people keeping dream journals and I am going to try this.

What kind of dreams have you had? Have you looked up the meaning and does it fit with your dream? Please share your thoughts as I would like to make sure I am not the only crazy one out there! LOL.

In the thought process of this blog I had a song going through my head. All I Have To Do Is Dream by the Everly Brothers. Just the word dream not the meaning behind the song, ha ha. But either way it’s a great song. I hope you enjoy it.
