Dreams are like personal encrypted messages from the subconscious mind. Unfortunately, they are not always in the same language we use in reality, but through scientific advancements we now have the ability to study and interpret the most commonly dreamt about things. Although there is no official text or a universally acclaimed go-to-textbook, the following dream meanings provide a comprehensive starting point for most people.
Outlined below in no particular order are the most common dreams that people have, collected from various sources and studies they are a good starting point for a fuller deeper personal analysis:
- Being Chased – Very common in all cultures, it suggests feeling threatened. So reflect on who or what is chasing you, and why they may pose a threat in your real life.
- Animals – Most animals in a dream will represent your habits
- Death – Symbolises change. A death of a friend ror loved one represents change and more importantly is not a paranormal prediction of any kind.
