What&#8217;s more, the <a title="Dream Interpretation" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com">dream interpretation</a> can give the dreamer a lot of insight into their lives&#8230; and minds.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve had one of these dreams, the most important thing to do is to determine the condition of the garden, itself.</p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s why:</strong> The garden is a symbol of our life, or more importantly, how we view our life.</p>
<p>If the garden in your dream is lush, beautiful, and causes you to feel at peace, content, and happy &#8211; it&#8217;s a sign that you are at peace with your life right now. The way the garden makes you feel in your dream mirrors your attitude toward your current life as well as the person you perceive yourself to be.</p>
<p>If, on the other hand, the garden in your dream &#8220;needs work&#8221; or &#8220;requires attention,&#8221; your subconscious mind could be trying to make a point &#8211; in a decidedly colorful way.</p>
<p>If the garden is in ruins, with dead/dried vegetation, weeds, and overgrown plants and leaves you feeling discouraged, angry, or even sad &#8211; your dream interpretation would be that there&#8217;s regret or disappointment somewhere in your life.  Generally speaking, whatever emotion you feel in the dream is the emotion you feel about this REAL life situation.  If you feel remorse or regret, you possibly have undealt with guilt in your life.  If the situation causes you to feel angry, you obviously have an underlying anger that you haven&#8217;t fully dealt with.</p>
<p>If, in your dream, you feel angry at someone else for the state of the garden, as opposed to yourself, you are possibly harboring resentment and finding it difficult to forgive someone for something they&#8217;ve done or said (or failed to do or say, for that matter).</p>
<p>If the garden&#8217;s required work seems too much for you, it reflects a feeling of being overwhelmed in your life.</p>
<p>In the dream, if you find yourself simply observing everything that needs to be done&#8230; and then rolling up your sleeves to do the work, it&#8217;s a sign that you know there are things that you need to do in your daily life. If, in the dream, you don&#8217;t possess any negative feelings or emotions, it&#8217;s a sign that (deep down), you&#8217;re anxious to get started on the work you know needs to be done.</p>
<p>In fact, you may even be excited about the challenge!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_691" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><a href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/angry_man.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-691" title="Angry dreams" src="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/angry_man.png" alt="" width="400" height="267" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Angry dreams</p></div>
<p>I&#8217;ve had a few people recently ask me what it means to dream of being angry.  One college freshman worded it this way, &#8220;I had a disturbing dream last night that I was a ticking time bomb. Not literally, but figuratively.  Everything that happened in the dream made me mad and I exploded at just about everyone who spoke to me!  That&#8217;s not like me in real life and I was just wondering what this dream means?&#8221;</p>
<p>A mother of two in Miami had a similar dream: &#8220;I had a dream about a week ago that I can&#8217;t forget. I yelled so much during the dream It&#8217;s a wonder my throat wasn&#8217;t sore after I woke up.&#8221;</p>
<p>Finally, someone who referred to themselves as &#8220;Dreamer in Alaska,&#8221; described their dreams like this:  &#8220;I have had three dreams lately. Each time I am SO angry and SO mad at everyone. I don&#8217;t understand why. I cussed and even threw things in two of the dreams. I don&#8217;t cuss, so I thought that was odd. I also don&#8217;t throw things, so that was odd too.  What do these dreams symbolize? I&#8217;m really curious and hope my angry dreams stop. They make me worry that I&#8217;m angry inside or something.&#8221;</p>
<p>Anger dreams are, pure and simple: They are a way of releasing anxiety, anger, disappointment&#8230; or, basically any negative emotions or feelings that the dreamer experiences in their day to day life.  If these feelings are &#8220;repressed,&#8221; or not dealt with, the emotions sort of store up inside the individual.</p>
<p>Anger dreams are a way the subconscious mind tries to let the negativity out!</p>
<p>These dreams do not indicate that you are an angry person, at all, so don&#8217;t worry about that. They simply mean that you&#8217;ve encountered something negative, somewhere, and you&#8217;re mind continues to process your feelings while you sleep.</p>
<p>You could have contacted this negativity in a relationship, at school, at work, or even through a television show.  Rest assured that these dreams will go away quickly &#8211; they seldom last beyond two dreams, three at the most.</p>

<p>Every now and then, a <a title="Dream Analysis" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com">Dream Prophesy</a> reader will submit a <strong>dream</strong> to share on the website, simply for the sake of sharing. Because the<strong> dream&#8217;s meaning</strong> is obvious, they know exactly what the <strong>interpretation</strong> or <strong>analysis</strong> is.</p>
<p>They simply want to share it with other readers.  I think that&#8217;s great and LOVE for dreamers to share their dreams.  Other dreamers may be having similar dreams and can benefit from seeing what another person &#8220;gets out of&#8221; their dream.</p>
<p>Below is an e-mail (along with the dream and a very accurate interpretation!) from a reader in Florida named Sandy.</p>
<p><strong>Over the past year, both of my daughters moved out of our home.  Our oldest daughter got married and moved with her husband 46 miles away (south).  My youngest daughter &#8211; two months later &#8211; moved away for college, 2 and 1/2 hours away (north).  I&#8217;m stuck in the middle, missing them with all my heart.</strong></p>
<p><strong>I&#8217;m proud of both of them and I love my son in law, but I miss my daughters badly. I cry more this year than I have in my whole life.</strong></p>
<p><strong>My husband and I have not been getting along. He says I am always sad and never happy any more.  He doesn&#8217;t understand.  If I seem unhappy it&#8217;s because I am.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Anyway, two nights ago I had a dream that just makes so much sense and is so perfect, I wanted to share with you and other readers of Dream Prophesy.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s the dream.  I was helping people move farm animals from one part of the state to another. I would put them in cages and move them onto a truck. Then we&#8217;d drive them to their new farm. Everything was okay until they showed me three ducks that had to be moved.  Before I could say anything, they put the mother duck in one cage and the two baby ducks in a different cage.  The mother duck started sqwaking and crying &#8211; waving her wings and acting very upset. She became angry and aggressive, and if she wasn&#8217;t in a cage, she would have bitten us all.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>I said, &#8220;She wants her babies!&#8221; but they put her and her cage on one truck and the cage with the babies on another truck. I had to drive the truck with the unhappy and mad mother duck.  She was so loud that she was upsetting the other animals in their cages and none of us were happy. I felt so sorry for her. So instead of driving on the road I was told to, I followed the other truck and honked until they stopped.  They thought I was crazy but I yelled at them, &#8220;She wants her babies!&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>I got the cage with the two baby ducks and opened it. I put them into the cage with the mad mother duck and she pulled her babies close to her with her wings.  I told them, &#8220;You will never be apart again.&#8221; Then I woke up.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The dream is obvious, isn&#8217;t it?  &#8220;She wants her babies!&#8221; That&#8217;s me. And no one else understands but me, just like in the dream.  You want to know something else about the dream that makes it cute?  I have collected ducks (figurines, books, pillows, pictures, stuffed animals, and anything with ducks on it) since my daughters were in diapers. They even had duck diaper bags.</strong></p>
<p><strong>I just wanted to share my dream because it is neat how they show what&#8217;s going on in your life.  Thank you for your website, I read it all the time. &#8211; Sandy</strong></p>
<p>Thanks for sharing your dream, Sandy! Your <strong>dream</strong> is, in many ways, adorable. As a &#8220;mother duck,&#8221; myself, I understand all of the feelings you described.  However, as a dreamologist, I think I see something that you overlooked, and it&#8217;s something that may actually help you. Notice that you say the mother duck acted mad (angry and aggressive &#8211; and that she&#8217;d have bitten you all if she weren&#8217;t in a cage).  I actually think this is the most important part of the dream, even more so than the separation anxiety the mother duck felt which matches your own.</p>
<p>The mother duck&#8217;s intense pain and heartbreak manifested itself as anger and aggression.  Could it be that your own heartbreak manifests itself as anger?  You mentioned that you and your husband aren&#8217;t getting along.  If your heartbreak were manifesting itself only in tears and a long face, that would be pretty bad, but I don&#8217;t think that would (in and of itself) lead to arguments or tension. It would probably lead to your husband taking you out to eat more or doing things to cheer you up!</p>
<p>Given the details of the dream PLUS the details you shared, I think your subconscious mind is trying to show you something of the utmost importance.  Many people, when they feel pain, loss, or sadness, lash out in anger.  What&#8217;s worse, they usually hit a target that had nothing to do with the pain in the first place.  Different people react to pain differently.   Some people keep it all in, some &#8220;cry it out,&#8221;  and some &#8220;lash out.&#8221;  It seems to me that you&#8217;re probably crying it out AND lashing out.</p>
<p>Like the mother duck in the dream, you have been (and are) beside yourself with loss and unhappiness. My heart breaks for you, because the pain is obviously hideous!</p>
<p>I could point out that your daughters (or baby ducks!) are each within a car drive and certainly within reach of a phone call.  I could point out that you&#8217;ll see them on birthdays, holidays, and probably many other times as well.  However, when the heart is filled with sadness, words won&#8217;t heal it. Only time can do that.</p>
<p>You need time to see that this isn&#8217;t the end of the road, it&#8217;s just a different road.  Much like the one you took in the dream.  I think that&#8217;s yet another dream symbol.</p>
<p>I hope you&#8217;ll realize that, like mother duck, your pain was showing up as anger and, possibly, aggression.  Hopefully no one ever felt like you&#8217;d bite them, but with us moms, you never know!!!</p>
<p>On my <a title="Self Help Blog" href="http://www.selfhelpdaily.com" target="_blank">Self Help Blog</a>, Self Help Daily, I actually write frequently about <a title="Coping with Empty Nest Syndrome" href="http://www.selfhelpdaily.com/coping-with-empty-nest-syndrome-2/" target="_blank">empty nest syndrome</a> and things you can do to make the transition easier.  I think you&#8217;ll find advice and tips there that&#8217;ll help you out.  Please feel free to e-mail me again any time you want to just talk and keep your chin up.  Life&#8217;s FAR too beautiful to spend any time looking down.</p>

<p>Here&#8217;s a recent dream submitted for <a title="Dream Analysis" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com">dream analysis</a>. The first effect the dream had on me, when I read it last night, was making me incredibly hungry for pancakes! (<em>Guess what I&#8217;m making for supper&#8230;</em>)</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>I&#8217;ve had a couple of really odd dreams recently and I hope you can tell me what they mean. My first dream was all about being hungry. I was starving in my dream and couldn&#8217;t find anything in my home to eat. So I got in a car, I don&#8217;t know who&#8217;s it was, and drove around town. None of the restaurants were open, so I went to a big grocery store. When I got inside, I realized that the food was fake food. I got into another car (again I don&#8217;t know who&#8217;s car it was) and drove to a different grocery store. I went in and saw that the food was real food so I got ready to buy some and didn&#8217;t have any money!!!  I woke up feeling really frustrated and hungry.  A few nights later I dreamed about pancakes. I made a big batch for me and my wife and daughter. We all ate and ate and ate. They both got full and got up to go into another room. I was still hungry, so I finished off the platter in the middle of the table. Even after about 20 pancakes, with butter and syrup, I still felt hungry, so I went to get the pancake mix box to make more and all of a sudden it was empty &#8211; but it had been half full only a minute before.  I can&#8217;t help but think there is some connection with these dreams because I woke up feeling similarly frustrated in each. I hope you can help me figure this out so I don&#8217;t have another pain in the neck dream. Thank you.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>First of all, good call! You are absolutely right, these dreams are connected.  Also, you did a great job of remembering how you felt when you woke up, which gives you bonus points!  Dreams in which we feel hungry are about being <em><strong>unfulfilled</strong></em>.  Generally speaking, there is something &#8220;missing&#8221; in the dreamer&#8217;s life that he or she &#8220;hungers&#8221; for. (Thirst dreams often have the same translation.)</p>
<p>This lack of fulfillment could be personal or professional.  It could have to do with weight loss or gain, school, work, a relationship, progress in giving up a bad habit, or lack of progress in taking up a good habit. Only the dreamer knows for certain where he or she feels unsatisfied or unfulfilled.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s something else:  In your first dream, you &#8220;came close&#8221; several times.  You found a grocery store BUT it had fake food (so worthless to an empty stomach!).  Then you found a store with real food BUT you didn&#8217;t have any money with you to pay for it.  In your second dream, you &#8220;came close&#8221; again. This time you had the food.  You ate a good deal and wanted more BUT the box was empty.</p>
<p>These &#8220;close calls&#8221; indicate that you have probably come very close to fulfilling your heart&#8217;s desire, but somehow didn&#8217;t quite make it.  Your subconscious mind remembers all too well how close you came!  I believe these dreams are:</p>
<ol>
<li>Your subconscious mind crying out for what it&#8217;s missing.</li>
<li>Your subconscious mind reminding you that you can make it happen, if you stick with it.</li>
</ol>
<p>Best of luck to you and, again, KUDOS for for your dream smarts!</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">I always, always, always recommend that my readers keep a <a title="Dream Journal" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0811870359/ref=as_li_ss_il?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=dreamprophesy05-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399369&amp;creativeASIN=0811870359" target="_blank">dream journal</a>.</p>
<p><a title="Dream Analysis" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com">Dream analysis</a> is utterly fascinating and the best way to get ALL you can from the experience is to keep a dream journal.  Even if the dream seems unspectacular and commonplace, you should write down the details.</p>
<p>For example, in your dream journal you should include the following information:</p>
<ul>
<li>How you felt during the dream.</li>
<li>How you felt when you first awoke.</li>
<li>Who was in the dream with you.</li>
<li>The predominant colors in your dream.</li>
<li>Any dream symbols you recall</li>
<li>The date</li>
<li><strong>VERY IMPORTANT</strong>: Include a few words about how you felt during the day.  I&#8217;ll tell you why in a minute.</li>
</ul>
<p>You don&#8217;t have to go into great, lengthy details in your dream journal (unless you want to, of course!). You can simply write down a series of words and names. Just remember to include HOW you felt during and after the dream.   You don&#8217;t even HAVE to have an actual <a title="Keeping a Dream Journal" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/tag/dream-journal/">dream journal</a>, you could most definitely use an old notebook!  However, don&#8217;t use random loose sheets of paper. Why? They&#8217;ll inevitably get lost and unorganized. What you&#8217;re looking for is a pattern.  You need to see what dream symbols you frequently dream about and what people show up often in your dreams.</p>
<p>You also want to watch for situations or emotions that recur in your dreams.  Do you often lose things in your dreams (a sign that you feel overwhelmed)? Are you often mistreated in your dreams (a sign that you feel like a victim)?  So, as you can see, it will greatly benefit you to have your dreams chronicled in a very organized and ordered manner.</p>
<p><strong>Why What&#8217;s Happening in Your Life at the Time Matters</strong></p>
<p>You want to include what&#8217;s going on in your life at the time of the dream.  For example, if you&#8217;re feeling stressed at work, write it down! You&#8217;ll be able to see what sort of dream symbols and situations occur when you&#8217;re dealing with stress in your life.  Also&#8230; and this is pretty cool&#8230;. you&#8217;ll often find out exactly WHAT or WHO is causing you the most stress! If you have recurring &#8220;frustration&#8221; dreams and a certain co-worker consistenly shows up in them, he or she is a source of your stress and frustration.  It could be one small thing they do (or fail to do) that irritates you or it could be every single thing about them! On the other hand, the stress could possibly come from the fact you don&#8217;t know how to handle or deal with them.  Only you will know for sure.</p>
<p>The thing is, the dream journal and your entries in it will give you a great place to start looking for the root of your stress.</p>
<p>Emotions we feel during the day impact our dreams like nothing else. If we experience FEAR during a movie, for example, we&#8217;ll probably face it again in an upcoming dream. That&#8217;s why we always say, &#8220;I dread my dreams tonight!&#8221; after seeing horror movies. We know all too well the fear factor will rear its ugly head again!</p>
<p>The same is true with other emotions. If we feel angry or annoyed, something will probably happen in our dreams that angers or annoys us. It&#8217;s as though our dream tries to sort out the strong emotions by &#8220;acting out&#8221; similar scenarios.   Also, if we&#8217;re feeling particularly close to someone, we may have dreams that are very pleasant, positive, and even romantic.</p>
<p>This is why it&#8217;s so important to jot down a few words about how you&#8217;re feeling in &#8220;the real world&#8221; at the time of the dreams.</p>
<p>I hope you&#8217;ll strongly consider keeping a <a title="Dream Journal" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0811870359/ref=as_li_ss_il?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=dreamprophesy05-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399369&amp;creativeASIN=0811870359" target="_blank">dream journal</a>. The benefits are amazing and, trust me, you&#8217;ll have a really fun time!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/cool_village.png" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-630" title="Dream Analysis: Lost Dreams" src="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/cool_village.png" alt="Dream Analysis: Lost Dreams" width="560" height="420" /></a></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a recently submitted dream for <a title="Dream Analysis" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com">dream analysis</a>:</p>
<p><strong>I&#8217;ve been dreaming a lot lately about being lost. A few nights ago I dreamed I was in a town I used to live in but I didn&#8217;t recognize any of the restaurants or stores. I didn&#8217;t know which way to drive because nothing looked familiar. I knew it was the town but it just looked different.  Last night I had a similar dream but I was in my aunt&#8217;s house. The rooms were different and each time I went through what I thought was the right door, it led to another room. I kept going in circles and just couldn&#8217;t get out.  I&#8217;ve read where you say that you can tell a lot about the dream analysis by how you felt during the dream and after waking up.  You&#8217;d think I would have been frustrated in these dreams and after waking up but I wasn&#8217;t.  I enjoyed driving around and seeing new things in the first dream and was even laughing in the second one. I&#8217;m just wondering what&#8217;s behind these dreams! Thank you in advance.</strong> &#8211; Lara</p>
<p>Lara, I have actually had similar dreams at different times in my life.  Ironically enough, the first dream you described is alarmingly close to a dream I once had. I dreamed that I was driving my daughters around a town that their father/my husband and I lived in when we first got married.  Some things were the same but a lot was different.  I had no idea where I was going!  Like you, I didn&#8217;t feel frustrated, worried, or upset.  In fact, in my dream, my daughters and I stopped and ate at an Arby&#8217;s (which the town didn&#8217;t even have!).</p>
<p>These types of <strong>dreams</strong> are simply your brain processing change or changes in your life.  Given the fact that your emotions (during and after the dreams) were positive, I&#8217;d guess that these changes have been positive &#8211; or, at the very least, NOT terrible!  My own dream came right after my family moved to a new home in a city. I was excited about the home as well as the city, so the emotions were all positive and upbeat.</p>
<p>Even when the changes in our lives are positive and desired, our brain still has to sort of wrap itself around everything and process what has happened.  When everything else is, literally, turned off while we sleep, our brain seizes the opportunity to sort things out.  When your own brain has finished processing the recent change or changes in your life, your <strong>lost dreams</strong> will, themselves, get lost.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/one-hundred-dollar-bill.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-625" title="Money Dreams - what do these dreams mean?!" src="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/one-hundred-dollar-bill.jpg" alt="Money Dreams - what do these dreams mean?!" width="615" height="461" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I had a dream that has me pretty worried.  I dreamed a few nights ago that I had been given a $50,000 check from my boss.  I went immediately to some sort of store that I&#8217;ve never seen before and blew every last penny on stupid stuff, I mean really STUPID stuff.  Things I didn&#8217;t want and things I&#8217;d never buy in my real life.  At the end of the dream, I was very sad and frustrated because I blew all the money and didn&#8217;t have it any more.  I kept thinking, &#8220;I want it back. I wasted it all and I can&#8217;t get it back!&#8217;  What does this dream mean? I haven&#8217;t lost anything or anyone in my life recently. Does this mean I&#8217;m going to lose a lot of money or lose something or someone near to me? I&#8217;m a  real wreck with worry!!!&#8221; -  Rita</p></blockquote>
<p>First of all, Rita, this dream isn&#8217;t an omen.  Dreams don&#8217;t tell the future &#8211; because no one can really, accurately do that.   This dream has a real, genuine meaning, but before we get to it &#8211; I think it&#8217;s a good idea to remind everyone that dreams aren&#8217;t, by nature prophetic.  HOWEVER, they can point out situations or needs to us that&#8217;ll allow us to avert potential problems sensed by our subconscious mind.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the thing, our subconscious mind is much more in touch with what&#8217;s going on in our mind and heart than our conscious mind is.  Our conscious mind has so many different things to process and take care of during the day. Too many things are vying for our attention!  However, when we yield ourselves to our subconscious mind (such as in sleep or deep mediation),  we give our subconscious mind a chance to speak up and have its say.</p>
<p>This is why dream analysis is so VERY important.  If we can grab and hang onto what our subconscious mind tells us in our sleep, we can learn extremely valuable things about ourselves and our lives &#8211; things that aren&#8217;t caught by the over-stimulated and over-worked conscious mind.</p>
<p>In this particular dream, the dreamer (Rita) is getting a very clear and distinct message.  This dream indicates that Rita is, deep down, afraid that she&#8217;s missing a great opportunity.  I believe that her subconscious mind recognizes that she&#8217;s letting something slip by that she&#8217;ll later regret.  This could be a job opportunity, a relationship, time spent with a loved one, a house, a car&#8230; basically anything.</p>
<p>Only the dreamer knows for certain what may be slipping away from her!</p>
<p>Rita, my suggestion would be to get alone someplace very quiet and private.  Go deep into your thoughts and find this opportunity that your subconscious mind is afraid of missing. The dream symbolism is that you are &#8220;blowing it.&#8221;  The fact that you felt so dejected and wanted so desperately to &#8220;get it back&#8221; indicates that we&#8217;re talking about time.  This sort of dream is very common amongst parents who feel they aren&#8217;t spending enough time with their children.   A lot of people have this sort of dream when they&#8217;re afraid they aren&#8217;t spending as much time visiting their parents or other family members enough.</p>
<p>The thing your subconscious mind is most afraid of losing seems to be TIME.  Money and Time are often interchangeable in dreams and money is a commons symbol for time (after all, they&#8217;re each things we SPEND and the subconscious mind would have a difficult time symbolizing time, itself).</p>

<p>If you dream of being a bridesmaid, the dream analysis and interpretation all depend on one thing: How you FELT in the dream and how you FELT as soon as you woke from the dream.</p>
<p>If you felt sad or angry during the dream (and upon waking) the dream means that you&#8217;re currently feeling jealous of someone or something. You may even resent the attention they&#8217;re getting and wish some of it were coming your way!</p>
<p>If you felt happy or excited during the dream and upon waking, you are currently feeling very happy for someone &#8211; probably in regard to a romantic relationship they&#8217;re enjoying.  Your happiness for them is simply spilling over into your dream(s).</p>
<p>Of course, if you are currently planning a wedding with (or for) someone, the dream is only a symbol of the wedding you&#8217;re planning for.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/hole-in-the-road-dreams.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-605" title="Dream Interpretation: Hole in the road dreams" src="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/hole-in-the-road-dreams.jpg" alt="Dream Interpretation: Hole in the road dreams" width="400" height="266" /></a><strong>Hole in the Road Dreams: What they mean and why it matters!</strong></p>
<p>A recent dreamer submitted a frustrating <strong>dream</strong> they were having for <strong>analysis</strong>. This dream involved a hole in the road that they knew they had to avoid.  In fact, in the dream, they were aware of the fact that falling in the hole meant certain death.</p>
<p>The funny thing was, they could see into the hole and it was only about a foot deep and beautiful yellow flowers were on the bottom!  The dreamer wondered why such a shallow, innocent looking hole would elicit such fear in the dream.  As he/she pointed out, &#8220;&#8230; the thing that had me so frightened during the dream, and even after I first woke up, seems silly now. It looked like a flower bed that had sunk about a foot!&#8221;  However, the dreamer also mentioned that this was actually one of the worst <a title="Nightmares" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/category/dreams/nightmares/">nightmares</a> they&#8217;d had in a long time and that they woke up &#8220;frightened&#8221; and &#8220;breathing heavily.&#8221;</p>
<p>While it may seem that avoiding the hole would have been easy, the hole in the dream was on a very narrow road that the dreamer HAD to travel on.  They simply HAD to get past the hole without falling in.  <a title="Dreams" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com">Dreams</a> are amazing like that, we just KNOW something but most dreamers have no idea where the knowledge stems from.  What makes these dreams even more fascinating is the fact that the knowledge does stem from someplace&#8230; the dreamer&#8217;s subconsciousness.  Which is, of course, why <a title="Dream Interpretation" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/category/dream-interpretation/">dream interpretation</a> is so important and fascinating &#8211; our dreams truly do let us know what&#8217;s going on deep in our minds and hearts.</p>
<p>In the dream of the hole in the road, the dreamer KNEW that the innocent-looking hole was deadly.  While this may be a bit extreme for what lies in their day to day world, make no mistake about it:  There is something in their life that spells trouble.  Whether it&#8217;s a relationship, hobbies, a goal, plans, job, etc&#8230;  There is something that, <em>while on the surface seems innocent (as lovely perhaps as a flower bed)</em>, could spell disaster.  Deep in the dreamer&#8217;s subconsciousness, they know it.</p>
<p>The thing about this dream that worries me most is how the dreamer felt during the dream and upon waking.  So much about a dream&#8217;s interpretation lies in how the dreamer felt (or feels).  The intensity of the feelings indicates that the potential danger that lies within the dreamer&#8217;s real life isn&#8217;t something they should play around with.  When our dreams are this intense and bring about such strong emotions and feelings, make no mistake about it, our subconscious mind REALLY wants us to listen!</p>
<p>Of course, changes in our lives shouldn&#8217;t be made on the grounds of a dream alone.  The dream should serve as a reason to look more closely at what&#8217;s going on in our lives.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve ever had a <a title="Dream" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com">dream</a> about a hole in the road (or along your path) that you were afraid of falling in, realize that it&#8217;s symbolic of something in your life &#8211; something that you&#8217;re afraid of &#8220;falling into&#8221; or &#8220;falling prey to.&#8221;</p>
<p>Some people, who have recently quit smoking, will have <strong>hole dreams</strong>.  The dream symbolism is that they&#8217;re afraid of falling back into a harmful habit.  Many times, realizing that their subconscious mind fears for their well-being is JUST the extra incentive they need to avoid the pitfalls while awake as surely as they do in their dream.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Operation-Dreams.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-578" title="Dream Interpretation: Operation Dreams!" src="http://www.dreamprophesy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Operation-Dreams.jpg" alt="Dream Interpretation: Operation Dreams!" width="500" height="500" /></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">I was recently asked, via the contact form, &#8220;<em>What does it mean when you dream of having an operation?</em>&#8220;  This type of dream actually depends on whether or not you have an upcoming doctor&#8217;s appointment or trip to the dentist.  If you have an upcoming exam, procedure, or even a check-up, dreaming of an operation is simply a matter of your mind &#8220;acting out&#8221; anxieties you may have. It most definitely doesn&#8217;t indicate that anything is seriously wrong with you.  You&#8217;re simply anxious about the appointment and/or procedure.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">If you do not have an upcoming appointment, dreaming about an operation indicates something different, all together.  Operation dreams (or even dreams of having your teeth pulled or your hair cut) indicate the subconscious desire to REMOVE something from your life or for someone (sometimes even yourself) to CUT something out!  For example, many people who are struggling with overcoming a bad habit (overeating, smoking, etc.) or correcting an undesirable trait (bad temper, dishonesty&#8230;) will have operation dreams. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">It&#8217;s their mind&#8217;s way of processing their desire to REMOVE something from their lives.  And, yes, sometimes this something might be a specific person! If a relationship has gone very bad, you may dream of an operation, symbolizing your desire to remove either the trouble or the person from you life.  Only the dreamer knows for sure which is the case.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">If you dream of another person having an operation, you must be very careful about your dream interpretation.  The <a title="Dream Analysis" href="http://www.dreamprophesy.com">dream analysis</a> could go one of two ways:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">The operation in the dream could symbolize something you want THEM to cut out of their life or remove from their personality/disposition.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">The dream could indicate something in your own life &#8211; something that&#8217;s related to this particular individual in some way.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">The dream could have nothing whatsoever to do with the person having the operation in your dream!  It could be that they were on your mind recently and their appearance in the dream has nothing to do with the interpretation &#8211; the only thing that matters is the operation, itself.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">When you think back to the dream, pay close attention to the emotions you remembered having in the dream.  If your dream involved someone else having surgery, the more you focused on THEM in the dream, the more likely they have something to do with the interpretation.  However, if the main focus of the dream was the operation, it&#8217;s likely that they were simply a &#8220;stand in.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">As with all dreams, only you can get to the real analysis.  Think about the things in your life that you&#8217;d like to change.  What thing(s) would you remove from your life if you had the power to do so? When you come up with an answer to this question, you&#8217;ll have the analysis of the dream.</span></p>
