The Best Dream-interpretations Ever

If you dream that your teeth are falling out it doesn't mean that they will! It's often dreamt by someone very concerned about their appearance. Maybe they are afraid of getting old and feeling undesirable. Teeth are a major part of your looks and if they fall out your face will look sunken and old. A trip to the dentist will reassure you that all is well with your teeth.

To dream of being naked or only partly dressed in front of people usually means that you are very self conscious and shy. It's a fear of being exposed and feeling vulnerable.

If you dream of flying through the air it can be a very exhilarating experience and often means you are rising above a situation and are in control.

A diary of dreams is a great way to unlock the mysteries of your subconscious.

When you first wake up in the morning you may recall a dream you just had. Keep a notebook and pen on your bedside table and write down in detail as much as you can remember about that dream. If you don't do this straight away you will soon forget .

Describe how you felt during this dream and note any colours or people that you recognise. Look at the setting of the dream and see if it's familiar to you in any way. Maybe it takes place in a building you know such as a house or office. Your dream may show you a place you have visited in the past.

Over time you may notice a pattern emerging. It may be that you are very self conscious and you dream of being naked in front of a crowd of people, or you may dream that you turn up for work in your nightdress and slippers! These dreams are trying to get you to face up to an issue or fear that you need to overcome.

Your diary of dreams may also inspire you to write a novel or paint a picture. When you are asleep your mind isn't full of the day to day trivia and worries and is much more creative.
