SAMPLE DREAM : Dreams generally link to some real issue of relevance to you right now. They may capture your feelings on some health issue, work problem , relationship in difficulty , your feelings about how things are generally going, your plans for the day ahead or some simple paranoia or fear. The dreams featured in this website will try to reduce the dreams meaning to a quote which captures your current feelings on some issue. When studying your own dreams try to think what quotes could capture your own feelings on pressing issues. Think especially of the day before the dream and your thoughts about the day to come.

THE DREAM I started off standing up inside this stone grave thing which had its top off, and there where loads of dark figures like going around the outside of it and I was literally terrified. Then I looked up and there was this bright light in the sky and I felt so happy and calm it was amazing. Then I woke up. Its strange though that when I woke up I was ecstatic. I was happy for that whole morning.

THE REALITY Nothing much happened the day before or on the day of the dream. Yet the dreamer felt overcome with happiness.

THE INTERPRETATION Death and cemeteries in dreams can often link to the end of some phase and the start of a new one. Nothing really linked to that in real life. Yet dreams can often link to us having very strong emotions. So the dream signaled this new and very positive happy mood. Dreams capture a snapshot of our emotions so if we wake up and feel some very strong emotion for no reason then the dream is almost certainly connected to that.

Who knows why this happens. But the dream finishes on such a happy note and that certainly did capture his mood on waking up.

The sky is very much connected to the future and things that are anticipated. Rough skies can link to stress about the future whilst a beautiful sky could easily link to good feelings for the future.

BRIGHT : "capturing the dreamers feelings of enlightenment"
CALM : "a lack of anxiety about something"
GRAVE : "a new start - letting go of the past"
