Dream Dictionary - Basic Dream Symbols

For example, you may see a dream in which you are drinking coffee, then a spider appears in the kitchen window, and you suddenly wake up. If you are drinking coffee, this means that you are accepting what is bad; you see what is bad (the coffee has a black color, which represents what is bad).

The spider represents a great danger. If you don't pay attention to a very important detail, and if you postpone a very important action, you'll be in trouble.

The spider prepares invisible traps... you have to be careful and pay attention to what is threatening your peace of mind and happiness.

Since the spider is in your kitchen, this means that it is related to your daily actions.

Therefore the unconscious mind is showing you that besides seeing what is bad, you have to have the right attitude after seeing it, and do many different things, without apathy.

In other words: only the knowledge of what is right and what is wrong is not enough. You have to change your behavior now that you know the truth.

Since you are the dreamer, this dream is talking about you and your life. You have to think about what is bad in your life, and in which way your attitude must change, now that you have seen it.

For example, let's suppose that you finally understood that you let other people influence your decisions, instead of being loyal to your plans. Thus, from now on you must pay attention to what you want to attain and follow your plans with determination instead of changing your mind all the time, depending on your friends' opinions.

Even though many people have tried to decipher the mysterious meaning of dreams throughout our history, only a few people managed to capture the mysterious dream logic code.

Native Americans seemed to clearly understand the meaning of dreams and reap many benefits from this knowledge. Ancient civilizations constantly mention the importance of dream visions. The enigmatic interpretations of various prophets saved the entire population of a nation many times over from catastrophes, or prevented future problems.

Dreams have many dimensions and they give us information about everything. The psychiatrist Carl Jung was the only one who managed to discover the code for a perfect dream interpretation. He correctly translated the unconscious messages contained in the dream symbols. His method is scientific. This means that everyone can learn it, and that there are many explanations and confirmations of its objectivity.

Many people doubt that the occupation with the meaning of their dreams will be helpful enough until they learn the dream language. When they start understanding the messages contained in the dream images, they discover the enchanted wisdom of the unconscious mind that produces all dreams. Then dream interpretation becomes a sacred practice for them.

You'll certainly have the same attitude once you make the same discovery.

For example, when you see a ship in a dream, you'll understand that you have to study many things for a long time. You have to pass through a long process of development. The ship in dreams represents your long journey to the point that you learn everything you need to, or you transform areas in your life as needed.

The image of the ship is giving you important information.

Let's suppose that you had just discovered your ability as a seller. This dream is showing you that you still have a lot to learn, because in order to become a good seller you have to make an action plan.

You must not believe that your success is guaranteed and stop caring about learning all the details concerning the entire process of selling and keeping a business.

You'll therefore have the right attitude, instead of being immature. You'll respect the dream warning and seriously follow all marketing lessons. This is why you'll build a solid business, and regularly sell your merchandise for years without any problems.

You'll discover many different applications for the knowledge given to you thanks to dream translation, as soon as you get used to the symbolic dream language. There are numerous different techniques that you can use to your advantage once you have this knowledge.

Dreams where you see your teeth falling out are warning signs of great danger that you must not ignore. Your teeth in dreams represent your power. If you see that they are falling out, this means that you are in fact losing your life.

You are losing your psychical energy, and becoming a slave of your absurd wild side that didn't evolve yet like the human side of your conscience.

Don't think that this is a superstition because the scientific method of dream interpretation is a very serious translation that accurately translates the wise unconscious messages contained in the dream images. The psychiatrist Carl Jung managed to discover how we must translate the dream language by understanding its symbolism.

My work gives Carl Jung the recognition he deserves. In addition it gives you the possibility to immediately learn everything, because I simplified his complicated method.

If your teeth are falling out in a dream you must immediately learn how to translate your dreams according to the scientific method, and precisely follow the unconscious guidance without any objections.

You are making very serious mistakes that will bear a heavy cost since you are losing your psychical energy and all your power with what you are doing.

When I was in the beginning of my research, I met a girl who told me that she was constantly dreaming that her teeth were falling out. After asking her about her life, and after translating more dreams for her, I saw that she was totally immoral, without understanding what she was doing. It was a shame, especially because she was very young. She was in fact being manipulated by our cruel society, and at the same time, falling into the traps of her wild conscience.

I also interpreted the dreams of many older people, verifying that they were making serious mistakes like this young girl who was becoming a creature without any human dignity.

You don't need to be young to make serious moral mistakes in life, so it doesn't matter if you feel that you are mature. The dream warnings are protecting you, and showing you the truth that you cannot see by yourself, or the truth that you refuse to see, because you don't want to admit that you are wrong.

Be prudent when you see your teeth falling out in a dream.

You will find your health and safety by writing down your dreams everyday, so that the unconscious mind can show you what you must do in your dreams. If you do not heed the warnings of the unconscious, you will fall into the traps of your wild side, which is controlling your behavior, and at the same time, you will be a victim of other people's wickedness.

When you see demons in your dreams, this means that the unconscious mind that produces them is sending you many warnings. The demons represent people who are cruel and immoral, and will ruin your life.

You are probably going to feel afraid and irritated with your bad dreams; however, their role is therapeutic. They are in fact opening your eyes, and helping you see hidden dangers that are threatening your life and happiness.

Your dreams show you the bitter truth as it is, so that you may avoid falling into traps, and so that you may prevent all mental illnesses.

The demons you are seeing in your dreams could be unfair business partners, people who will betray you when you have an amorous relationship with them, or people who envy you and want to steal all the privileges you have in life.

Be very cautious when you see demons in your dreams and think carefully before acting.

If you had the intention to get married to someone or to open a store with a business partner for example, you had better give up after seeing a demon in a dream.

You may also see demons in your dreams that will be representing negative parts of your own personality, and not other people of your social environment. In this case they will appear mainly like aliens that came from another planet, or strange human beings that have no blood.

Images where demon faces are seen in dreams represent other people. When they appear somewhat camouflaged they are a part of your own personality.

In any case, you can be protected if you learn the dream language and you translate all your dreams according to the scientific method of dream interpretation, which works like free psychotherapy. The wise unconscious mind that produces your dreams is a natural doctor that keeps trying to protect your mental health through dream messages.

This protection works either because the wild side of your own conscience is constantly trying to destroy your human conscience through absurdity, or you have many enemies in your daily reality.

In dreams, the sea represents the unknown region of our psyche, where many dangers stay hidden. In the sea we finds sharks and many other monsters... First of all, the sea is an environment dangerous for the human being; we cannot breathe under water.

The sea represents the psychic sphere, where our wild conscience lives. The anti-conscience is worse than sharks and can easily destroy your human conscience through craziness.

Your human conscience is sublime like the Earth's surface, while your psyche, where the wild conscience lies hidden, is as vast as the ocean! The analogy is represented in our planet. Water predominates on Earth, exactly like craziness predominates in the human psychic sphere.

When you see a dream where you are near the sea or swimming in the sea, it means that you are near the dangerous and absurd content of your psyche that provokes craziness to your human side.

You must be careful.

My basic lessons of craziness prevention are given below:

1. Be loyal to your moral principals, and always respect others if you wish to be balanced and stay far from several dangers.

2. Forgive your enemies. Show compassion to your enemies because they were dominated by their wild sides when they hurt you.

3. Be resistant against any kind of crazy thoughts or feelings. Remember that there is a wild and violent conscience in your psyche, trying to influence your decisions and push you towards craziness.

4. Don't underestimate the danger of craziness, because it is real. Never think that something absurd "doesn't matter." Follow dream therapy with dedication. The unconscious mind will help you eliminate the dangerous influence of the anti-conscience, and find sound mental health.

A symbol expresses much more than words because it has a background. It is composed by a certain story, and it shows to the dreamer this entire story in only one image.

A symbol is a collection of meanings, like a sentence is a collection of words.

When for example you see your mother in a dream, this means that the dream is showing you first of all that you are being influenced by the wild side of your conscience, which is violent, immoral and sneaky. This is your other self, your primitive self, which you ignore. I named it anti-conscience because it works against the human side of our conscience, trying to destroy it through craziness. The anti-conscience provokes all existent mental illnesses to the human side of the human conscience.

Therefore, your mother in dreams represents your worst enemy. She represents the roots of absurdity and evil. You are making serious mistakes influenced by this dangerous part of your brain. Be careful and keep writing down your dreams, translate them according to the scientific method and follow the guidance of the unconscious mind, so that you may stop doing what is destroying your human side.

Your father in dreams represents your idiot and one-sided human conscience, which is selfish and ignorant. Whenever you see your father in a dream, this means that you are a slave of your psychological type. In other words: you are simply repeating the wrong reactions that predetermine your behavior.

Be very careful when you see your parents in dreams! Their symbolic meaning is very bad.

Of course, their symbolic meaning is totally different from their literary meaning. In our daily lives our parents are good for us and we love them - at least this is the most frequent image they have.

However, the language of the unconscious mind is a language that you must learn, the same way you learn any foreign language made with words.

You'll discover that the unconscious mind defines in a totally different way the things that your human conscience defines, because it follows a different logic.

The airplane in dreams represents a trip to another level of knowledge. When you see in a dream that you are traveling by plane, this means that you are reaching a higher level of knowledge and comprehension.

It happens after the analysis of a series of dreams, when you learn many things about yourself and the world where you live, besides learning how other people think, feel and sense.

You are going to see this dream after understanding something very important, even if you don't care about the meaning of your dreams.

I remember that at the beginning of my journey, I saw a series of dreams in which I would take a plane in order to travel to Brazil where I am from (I now live in Greece - all my family is Greek), but I never managed to make the trip. In the end something would happen to prevent me from traveling, or we had to take another airplane somewhere else, etc.

This series of dreams intrigued me very much. At that time I was only beginning to understand the meaning of dreams and I was not so sure that I had comprehended the real meaning of the airplane.

I studied very hard comparing all my dreams and relating them. I looked for more explanations about its meaning in Jung's books.

One day, I saw a dream in which I was finally traveling by plane and going to Brazil, triumphant. Then I could understand the meaning of the airplane, because I had finally reached the level of knowledge I needed to, which I couldn't reach before.

It was very difficult to attain it, because I had to abandon many of my wrong ideas, which I however considered correct at that time...

This is what it means to reach another level of knowledge though: when you manage to abandon your wrong conceptions of reality, admitting your own ignorance, and you accept learning everything from the beginning. It means that you'll see what you would never be able to see following the route you had chosen before. You'll stop examining everything from your old points of view.

Animals in dreams have a very important meaning. Usually, they are dream symbols. A dream symbol represents crucial information that saves the dreamer from trouble, and provides guidance that enlightens him or her by revealing basic truths.

Animals have a sacred meaning for many different civilizations and populations. They have a magnetic effect on the human being. This is why the unconscious mind that produces our dreams uses many animals in order to send us secret messages in a symbolic form.

Fire has two meanings in dreams, depending on the way it appears. When you see it in a fireplace, this means that you will find support concerning a certain matter of your life. In this case the fire has a positive meaning, because it is the protection of warmth, saving you from the cold weather, and even cooking your food.

You will see a dream with fire in a fireplace as an answer of the unconscious mind to your worries. It shows you that you don't need to be afraid of all the dangers that are threatening your peace of mind, because you will be protected, and nothing bad will happen to you.

However, fire has also a negative meaning, when it appears as a destructive power, which burns everything. If you see fire burning a building, a forest or something else in a dream, it represents the fire of hell that punishes all sinners for their moral mistakes. You should conclude that you are making a serious mistake, and you will have to face its very bitter consequences.

This dream can also be a serious warning that tries to prevent you from insisting on your plans, showing you that you'll have to face very bitter consequences later, or showing you that you have to accept a certain sacrifice, because if you don't accept it, your attitude will be irresponsible and insensitive.

When water appears in your dreams, it can have two different meanings, depending on its quantity.

If you see only a few drops of water, it means forgiveness. The drops give life to the dry earth and signify the continuation of life after dormancy, since water gives life to seeds that become plants.

This is the water that makes the dust sit and stop flowing everywhere. In this case, the dust is provoked by fights and the water puts an end to the fights by causing the dust to settle or wash away.

A few drops of water that are sufficient to extinguish fire that started to burn. Forgiveness puts an end to violence; it doesn't let the hatred continue to burn someone's heart.

However, when you see a lot of water, as in a flood, its meaning is negative, because it symbolizes attachment to Earth. In other words, when you see a lot of water in a dream (usually in an inundation) this means that you are too materialistic. You do not consider the existence of your spirit; you behave as if your life didn't have any meaning beyond daily survival. The water you see is the spirit that was light and invisible flying in the air, but became heavy water that gravitated towards the earth, and fell from its proper dimension.

A lot of water is a sign of superficiality and futility. You do not consider several points of reality that are important because you underestimate their value. You only concentrate on the narrow sphere of your daily life, obligations, friends, problems; you live a superficial life.

There are many other things happening in the universe besides everything you know. The meaning of your life may not be what you imagine.

You are not made of flesh and bones alone.

A house in dreams is the dreamer's psyche. The abandoned house is an abandoned psyche. The same happens with the apartment. The place where you live in your dreams represents your own psyche.

When you see yourself in your old apartment in a dream, this means that you are analyzing the characteristics of your personality at the time you used to live in that apartment. This happens because you may be repeating an old negative attitude you used to have when you were younger.

An unknown house indicates that there are many parts of your psyche that you completely ignore. This is a very common dream. You'll certainly see this dream some day because you basically ignore the content of your psyche.

When you'll learn the dream language, you'll discover your psychological life and how it works, you'll understand what determines your behavior, and a lot more. Your own dreams will help you eliminate everything that is bad and causes pain in your life.

You'll know what exists inside you, and the content of your psyche will be beautiful because you'll cultivate virtues, and evolve. At this stage of your psychological evolution, your house or apartment in a dream will be very big, beautiful, and well organized. You'll know all the rooms of your beautiful house because you'll know who you are.

The scientific method of dream interpretation discovered by the psychiatrist Carl Jung proves to the world that our dreams have psychotherapeutical power. After continuing his research, I managed to prove that his theories were revealing discoveries.

Jung discovered real solutions to our psychological problems through dream interpretation because he did manage to understand the mysterious meaning of the symbolic dream language. I simplified his complicated method, and today everyone can learn it without delay. I also discovered the anti-conscience, the wild side of our conscience that didn't evolve like our human side, after continuing his research.

If you want to hugely increase your brain power you have to transform the anti-conscience into human conscience. This can be easily done through dream translation.

Study the dream language for a while with my dynamic method, and you'll have in your hands the key of knowledge. This powerful key will open many new doors in your life. It will also open many doors inside your mind. You'll discover who you really are, and how to become a perfect human being. You'll use all your capacities and never make mistakes.

You'll learn how to pay attention to many revealing details in your life. You'll be able to make future predictions thanks to the information you'll have in dream messages. You will then improve your plans, depending on what you want to achieve in the future.

The symbolic dream language puts you into contact with the unconscious wisdom. This wisdom transforms you into a wise human being.

Your brain power and your sensitivity constantly increase, as you acquire a greater vision of the world. You are also able to see the entire content of the human mind. This vision, and the development of your intelligence to the maximum, will transform you into a superior creature. You'll have the power to change many situations and influence many people.

After mastering the dream language, you'll transform your personality and evolve. Your brain power will be based on the complete consciousness you'll acquire. You'll understand the meaning of life and death. You'll also learn how to protect your life from all dangers, including diseases and accidents. They are all provoked by the negative energy of the anti-conscience, which you'll eliminate through dream therapy.

You'll make many friends and help many people succeed in all fields. Your actions will improve our reality. Your example will mark our history. Your glory will inspire the new generations, and your unique personality will give new hope to humanity.
