DREAMING ABOUT TEETH. My most popular requests for dream meaning are,
by far, dreams about teeth falling out. Apparently it is quite
disturbing to people who have this dream! In my experience,
a dream about one's teeth falling out usually symbolises that
the dreamer is having a challenge getting their voice heard,
or feelings acknowledged. This may be referring to their conversations
with a particular person such as their significant other,
boss, or friend; or can be generalized for people who are
shy, to include almost everyone they come in contact with.
The dreamer needs to brush up on conversational skills, believe
in the value of their own opinion, learn how to be less intimidated
by aggressive people, and become more assertive and make their
voice heard. Once they do that, this dream (which is a common
recurring dream) should evolve and show improvement...or disappear
altogether.
FLYING usually represents freedom from the physical body.
It's one of the first things people attempt to do when they
gain control of their dreams and start lucid dreaming. Everybody
seems to have a natural inclination to want to fly, unless
that is changed by a fear of flying due to a frightening incident
in their waking lives. Flying = freedom; either a desire for
freedom, an "escape" from restraints in your physical
life (like a mini-vacation for the mind) or any number of
possibilities. Tie it in with the context of your dream...what
were you doing in your dream besides flying? How did it make
you feel etc?
DREAMING ABOUT CAR or VEHICLE. This is supposed to symbolise
you in your waking life, in your physical body. Your physical
body is used by the soul pretty much like we use a car...it's
driven for awhile and we give it gas/nourishment and repairs
as needed until it stops running, and then we go back home.
Pay attention to your car, which symbolises your physical
body. Are you behind the wheel, or is someone else in control?
You want to be in charge of your life, naturally. What is
the colour and condition of this vehicle? Do you seem to be
driving it the right way, on a safe road in good condition,
or is the road rocky, winding, or suddenly ends at a cliff?
That would signal you need redirection. The bigger the vehicle,
the more energy you may be successfully using for your daily
lessons, depending on the context of your dream. Note all
clues as to how you are faring, and make adjustments accordingly.
DREAM MEANINGS ABOUT HOUSE: You drive a car, but typically you
live in a house. Dreams about a house symbolise a larger aspect
of yourself, and the aspects of Self which make the whole.
Each room symbolises a different aspect of you, for example:
DREAMING ABOUT AN ATTIC symbolises your Higher Self, spiritual
development and progress.
DREAMS ABOUT A BATHROOM symbolises the need for cleansing/
purging/ elimination of something in your life that isn't
quite working, or that has served its purpose.
DREAM MEANINGS ABOUT A KITCHEN symbolises the act of supplying
nourishment or food for the body/mind/soul...whatever is currently
"cooking" or developing in your life.
DREAMING ABOUT A DINING ROOM is similar to the kitchen,
but has more to do with immediate needs for supplying and
utilising nourishment, and less with the preparation or taking
stock of those needs.
DREAM MEANINGS ABOUT THE MAIN ROOM or LIVING ROOM
symbolises your daily interactions with others, and often
you will have other people appearing in your dreams in this
room.
DREAMS ABOUT BEDROOMS symbolise the unconscious mind
aspect of yourself, a need to rest or sometimes sexuality
issues in your life.
DREAM MEANINGS ABOUT THE UPSTAIRS symbolises your spiritual awareness
or the Higher Self that always has your higher good looked
after, no matter how it might seem otherwise.
DREAMS ABOUT THE DOWNSTAIRS/BASEMENT symbolises your
subconscious mind, which deals with habits, old coping skills,
automation, and ego.
DREAMING ABOUT THE GROUND FLOOR of a house represents your
daily agenda; what's currently going on in your life.
DREAMS ABOUT A HALLWAY symbolises that you have reached
an area that is necessary to journey through in order to get
to the other side, and it may be a narrow path that has to
be traversed with care and awareness.
DREAMS ABOUT A PORCH symbolises being undecided. It could
be symbolic of being contemplative, or uncommitted or withdrawn.
It could also be something entirely different such as being
on the threshold of something new. It depends on the entire
context of the dream. Back or Front Porch? Screened-in or
open? Messy or neat? Sparse or furnished? All these details
add to the overall symbolism.
