Spiritual Meaning In Dreams (Do Dreams Have A Spiritual Menaing?)
Whenever dreaming is incorporated into the dream, you may derive from it the following 7 Spiritual Meanings. Whenever you start having dreams within dreams, this is the link to different spiritual messages. Whenever there is a message from a spirit realm to you, it is possible that you will experience dreams within dreams. This means the spirit realm is trying to send many messages at once.
So, you see the way in which, again and again, the spiritual significance of dreams, their essence, is revealed to you. Then, when you wake up and remember the dreams, you can then examine the symbols within the dreams in order to interpret them and draw out the kind of spiritual meanings from dreams that make sense to you. Since, as mentioned earlier, there is not any reliable body of evidence on what dreams mean, you need to interpret your dreams as it makes sense to you. As I mentioned at the start, once I started seeing more nightmares than I had ever seen, using a Dream Journal to record what you saw immediately after you woke up, could be helpful for interpreting those dreams.
It is not necessary all the time, but can also provide clues regarding interpreting one dream into another. As you read about a dream and its interpretation in Daniel Chapter 2, pray about the spiritual implications this dream has on your life. The dream seems like a spiritual dream like the experience of your first.
If you were anxious before going to bed, then this dream may have been reassurance. If your mind was calm before you slept, then it could be something else (an instruction, a guide, a caution, etc.).
From that point of view, dreams are not simply random evening visits without any actual significance. There is no conclusive proof about what dreams are, but the consensus is that dreams are collections of thoughts, struggles, emotions, events, people, places, and symbols which are somehow related to the dreamer. That is, certain dreams really do carry a significance, if only for the fact that they carry significance for a lot of people. There may be certain common symbols in dreams, which often may share similar spiritual underlying meanings to dreams for many people.
It is important to note that dreams can mean many things to every person, and they may even mean more than one thing in a single dream. Each of these dreams is unique to the dreamer, yet connected in the shared well of information. Most often, dreams will play out inside of one another, as messages from each are woven together. It is very common that dreams are multilayered; one symbol can be connected to something that happened in that day, our unconscious mind, our spiritual growth, events in our childhood, all of which affect our beliefs, thoughts, and behaviors today.
After years of analysing and interpreting dreams, this is how I understand dreams as very powerful portals to our subconscious. Our conscious minds are highly suspicious, and thus dreams are an ideal opportunity for us to receive insights from the spiritual realm. In the world of dreams, we visit a special place where God is capable of giving us not only precognition, but also discernment -- as long as we keep our minds pure, our hearts unattached. We may think of dreams as one-way communication from God to us, but King Solomons dreams show us this is not always true.
The Book of Daniel is full of dreams in which God shows him the future of our world. In the Bible, dreams of God have affected and influenced a lot of characters decisions and actions.
When one does not understand the dream, and God wants to make sense of it, he gives an explanation. As we see in these examples from the Tanakh (Hebrew scriptures), God speaks through dreams in ways that make sense, both to the one who has had the dream, and its interpreter.
The spiritual perspective on dreams is very different than the medical definition of dreams. The spiritual significance of the dream, which looks like flying birds, is usually related to the way in which you see the world (or wish to see it).
When you are dreaming about flying above water or land (like a bird or Superman), the spiritual meaning of flying in your dreams may be either a gift or a curse. If you remember your dream flying with a sense of pleasure, then the spiritual meaning is that it lifted you and provided a valuable transcendental experience. When you awaken from a flying dream, and feel this sense of joy and freedom, your dreams meaning is to feel the joyful force of life.
On a spiritual level, you may have experienced flying dreams after gaining some new insights into life. On a less spiritual level (and a more practical one), you might have a dream about flying after achieving something that you thought was incredibly hard. The dream means that someone or something is inadvertently managing your actions.
Perhaps the only way for spirit to gain your attention is with a powerful dream you simply cannot dismiss, as it impacts you in such a strong way. You may know a dream is spiritually significant when it seems to be showing you a new direction, or letting go of a path or a relationship that is not serving you anymore, and Spirit is calling you to explore and branch out into something different. Dreams -- this extended activity that we participate in each and every night -- can have very meaningful spiritual significance, as long as we are paying attention to what they are telling us.
The spiritual meanings of dreams are related to your higher self, which you may also call your mental self. As your higher self, you are in a position to articulate the meaning behind the experience of dreams. There is a common understanding among therapists in my field that dreams are compensatory, which means that they are not random and meaningless, but rather they have a specific intent and purpose, and that is to bring the materials of unconsciousness to conscious awareness.
