They say that we all have dreams, whether we remember them or not.
When I was very young, I had the same dream repeatedly: I had to escape through all these metal poles that barred my way, but I never did. Looking back, this makes perfect sense, for my childhood was miserable, one I wanted desperately to run away from.
The dream I remember best, is where all my teeth fall out. What can that mean?
“What do dreams mean if your teeth fall out? Penney Peirce, the author of “Dream Dictionary for Dummies,” suggests that dreaming about losing teeth can have multiple meanings.
It might mean that you are worried about your attractiveness or appearance, for instance. It may also indicate that you are concerned about your ability to communicate, or that you are concerned that you might have said something embarrassing.”
I have often wondered if our dreams are some kind of message, although understanding them can sometimes be difficult.
“Famed psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud described dreams as the “royal road” to the unconscious and suggested that by studying the obvious content of dreams, we could bring to light the hidden and unconscious desires that lead to neurosis.
Analyzing dream symbols and ascribing meaning to them has become a source of both entertainment and self-reflection in popular culture. Do dreams mean anything? Can you learn your unconscious wishes and desires by interpreting your dreams?”
An interesting idea from Freud there. I wonder what he would have made out of the one Anita had recently. In this dream, she has a penny coin stuck onto her tongue.
Could this be to do with her poetry, or her writing?
If anyone has any thoughts about this, we would love to hear them!
To dream, or not to dream… that is the question!
