What Do They Mean? 10 Most Common Dreams People Have
Whether you wake up in a cold sweat from a terrifying nightmare or whistle your way through the morning after a sleeping fantasy you wish could come true, dreams are a window into your life!
The average person has three to five dreams per night and some of them are very common and have specific meanings. Here are ten of them.
Money: Dreaming of cash can have several meanings. Losing money during the night’s slumber means you’re concerned about a tight financial situation in real life. But dreaming about winning money can mean you’re having great success in another area of your life or your career has taken an exciting turn.
Having a Baby: If you are a woman, this dream reflects your excitement if you ARE pregnant, or you are beginning a new chapter in your life if you are not pregnant. Men having this nighttime vision often feel as though their virility is compromised.
Food: Fantasies about food can have positive or negative meanings. If your nighttime excursions include a table full of good eats, you are having high levels of happiness in your life, but dreams of eating poisonous foods can mean you need to get rid of something negative in your life.
Test Taking: When kids or teens have this dream, it usually means they are worried about an upcoming exam, while adults who dream about tests are concerned about being judged by others for some reason.
Feeling Trapped: Having the nightmare of being restricted, immobilized or trapped is often linked to a frustration in your life, from being stuck in a dead-end job to being cemented into an unsatisfying relationship.
Losing a Limb: This traumatic dream could mean you’re scared about missing out on something, or you’re worried about losing something or someone close to you.
Committing a Crime: This dream means your brain wonders how it would feel, or you may have strong feelings of anger or resentment.
Running in Place: A dream of moving but making no progress means you feel you are not in control of your life.
Being invisible: With opposite meanings, being invisible in a dream can mean people don’t see or appreciate you … or you are seen too much and desire more privacy.
Losing Your Teeth: This dream often means you’re scared or anxious about a change in your life, or it can be connected to the trauma of having your baby teeth fall out.
