Dream Dictionary Update 6

I’ve added 7 new definitions to my Dream Dictionary as well as revised the existing definition for “mountain.”

The dictionary is finally over 100 definitions! (That’s including the sub-definitions, but they count too!)

Here are the new definitions:

  1. Bridge: Bridges are connections. They transition you across the rivers, roads, valleys, or obstructions in your life. Bridges in your dream symbolize the way you’re moving from point A to point B. An easy example – When moving from high school to a career, the bridge in your dream might be symbolic of college. College would “bridge” this gap.
  2. Drawbridge: Drawbridges protect castles. Symbolically, in a dream, they would protect yourself and your home.
  3. Steel: Used symbolically in your dreams steel could represent a firm yet strong and flexible resolve to get something done. Steel is tempered for strength.
  4. Path: Symbolically in your dream this is the representation of your movement through life from one person, place, or thing to another. These do not have to be tangible things. They could also be mental, emotional or spiritual. For example, the path could represent a college degree or spiritual enlightenment. It is how your body and your psyche are moving through life.
  5. Psyche: The human mind, soul, and spirit. In Roman Mythology: She is the human soul or spirit often depicted as a beautiful young girl with butterfly wings. She was loved by Cupid and made immortal by Jupiter.
  6. Tunnel: Symbolically in your dreams they represent ways to move through the obstacles in your life. They are also representative of ways to get inside you, as in tunneling into things.
  7. River: Rivers in your dreams symbolically represent natural, moving energy. As blood flows through your veins, rivers flow across and through the earth. Water represents life. Rivers in your dreams will therefore represent large, natural, and very powerful things that are currently moving through your life. Some rivers flow lazily along while others are filled with dangerous undercurrents. In addition, rivers in your dreams can simply represent recreational fun, such as swimming, boating, and fishing.
  8. Mountains: A mountain that shows up as an obstacle in your path is a huge amount of something that needs to be gone through or gotten over. An easy example of this is when people refer to a “mountain” of paperwork that needs to be done, meaning a huge amount of paperwork that needs finished before they can move forward. It could also refer to something in your life that needs “gone over” or reviewed in order to gain insight, understanding, or enlightenment. Symbolically in your dreams you are telling yourself that in your physical life you are encountering something huge that needs some kind of work to get through.

Remember, if you’ve dreamed a symbol that you’re unfamiliar with, you can skim through my dictionary to see if I’ve already defined it.  Any symbol that I’ve ever expanded upon in a full-length post will be linked there, too.

Also, if I haven’t covered a symbol yet and you’d like me to define something, send me an email or leave a comment at the dictionary page and I’ll be sure to write one.

Keep dreaming,

Michelle

Dream Dictionary Update 5

It’s been a while since my last post, but I’ve managed to get some new dictionary definitions together.  I wanted to try a new format this time, so here goes:

6 New Definitions added to the Dream Dictionary

  1. Bed: The piece of furniture that dominates a bedroom. Beds provide a soft, comfortable place to sleep. A bed in your dream will symbolize the degree of comfort you are feeling in a particular situation. The state of the bed will also provide a clue to the situation you are dreaming about. Are you sleeping on Cloud 9(a really good bed) or a bed of nails(really bad) or something in-between?
  2. Bedroom: A bedroom is the place where you sleep and where you dream. As a dream symbol it represents a personal, private place inside of you.
  3. Asleep: In a dream, it means not being fully conscious or aware of something. When you find yourself asleep in your dreams it is time to ask yourself if there is anything going on in your life that you are not aware of.
  4. Sleep: Sleep is a time of renewal. Our bodies and our minds are rejuvenated after a good night’s sleep. As a dream symbol a good night’s sleep would point to some type of rejuvenating aspect of your life. Sleeping poorly or unable to sleep would state the opposite, that you’re having trouble renewing yourself.
  5. Awaken: When you are asleep in a dream and actually wake-up, this is a clue that you are “waking-up” to what is going on around you. This would be something that you were previously unaware of.
  6. Naked: When you are naked in your dreams this means that you are exposing parts of yourself, or you feel that parts of you are being exposed. This exposure can be either mental, physical, or emotional.

Remember, if you’ve dreamed a symbol that you’re unfamiliar with, you can skim through my dictionary to see if I’ve already defined it.  Any symbol that I’ve ever expanded upon in a full-length post will be linked there, too.

Also, if I haven’t covered a symbol yet and you’d like me to define something, send me an email or leave a comment at the dictionary page and I’ll be sure to write one.

Thanks for reading!

Dream Dictionary Added

A few days ago I added a page to the navigation bar called Dream Dictionary.  It is an often updated copy of my own personal dream dictionary that I use when journaling my dreams.  I’ll be adding to that page quite frequently, and while it’s great for a short description about a symbol, it is also a link page to many previous posts where I’ve expanded upon some dream symbols.  I hope it comes in handy for you.

If you have a symbol that you’d like to see added to the dictionary, post a comment here or on that page and let me know.

As always, thanks for reading!
