Dream: The boy I in love with was kissing me.

Feel: Sweet!

Wishful thinking?. Intimacy may also symbolise taking on or recognising parts of the other person's character within yourself.

Dream: I was crying.

Feel: Tired.

Crying can indicate a release of tension and inner healing - it's a positive symbol.

Dream:I dreamt about my ex-girlfriend.

I still like her alot and I now find it difficult to remove her from my thoughts.In the dream we were happy and I thought it could be a preminition of future outcomes but I dont think it will and the thought saddens me.

Feel: Upset. Alone.

The dream could be playing out your feelings - helping you come to terms with the whole experience - part of which will stay with you.

In this dream I saw everything as darkness.

I was walking along in darkness even though it was day.

My friends were eleswhere and I had the feeling they didnt want to be around me. The sky was black and I was dark...inside me. It was a depressing dream and I awoke feeling depressed.

Feel:

Depressed...I felt like I had died and all my hope and faith in my life had died with me.

Darkness can represent the unknown or unrevealed. The dream may be asking if you are really aware of things as they really are - or do you feel 'in the dark'?

The darkness inside you may be asking if you really know who you are - what your talents and strengths are... and where you are going...

Depression can be a metaphor for holding the real you down (de-press). Are you expressing your deeper self - the real you?

In summary the dream could be a wakeup call!

My ex- boyfriend and my brother were having a horrific fight . They were in a shop with a lot of electrical appliances. Both of them were throwing things at each other such as knives, frying pans, bricks and stuff like that. I was really upset because at the time I still really liked my ex. I was running around screaming because both of them were seriously injured and my ex was close to death. I hated my brother for it. I went to visit my ex in hospital instead of my brother and every inch of skin he had, was really badly burnt. My sister got there before me, and when i got there she comforted me, I went to hug him (without thinking) and he screamed in pain, then I woke up.

Feel:

During and after the dream i was horrified. When I woke up I was still scared and was lying in bed for at least half an hour thinking about it, scared that my ex was really hurt. I knew there was no way to find out if he had of been because i had moved and we stopped talking after that.

This dream may show that you are concerned that your ex (or you) is hurting after the breakup - but the dream may be saying that you are going over the top - exaggerating - since this is what happens in the dream.

The dream might be asking: Do you fear your ex was "badly burnt" by the experience? Do you think you may have been unthinking ("without thinking") towards him? 

Your brother and sister probably represent your masculine and feminine sides. The needs of your male side may be in conflict with those of your ex - hence the fight between them.

I have a reaccuring dream about frogs

Frogs can represent change and growth - child to adult, immaturity to maturity. You will need to look at what else is happening in the dream to see what it's trying to say about change and growth.

Recurring dreams mean that you are still working on the issue or that you have not understood the message in the dream yet.

I caught my girlfriend getting on with my best friend so i punched him a few times and basically shot my load

Dream could be looking at issues of jealousy and violence. How did you feel about using violence? This may give a clue to the meaning.

It was christmas and I was sitting on a podeum, where prince Harry and william were singing carols on front of me, There was a big croud and some guy hit them with big sticks and they changhe people and princess beatrice came and sang, then he tapped Beatie with his stick so she went, then he tapped me so I left.

Then It was new years eve and I needed to go to the toilet, so I caught an elevator and this guy started feeling me and kissing me, then he dissapeard and I was back a the level I started at.

So I walked up some stairs to a cafe type thing. Their was a sign that said toilets >>>> So went there and there was a chick sitting on the toilet reading, door wide open, and she says, Have you got any a condom in yet, Im like huh? and went to use the toliet, But it was all plastic and broken so I left and went out side but I still had to go.

I saw a big light inside another biulding that said TAKEAWAY, so I went in saw the toilets and walked over. But there was a guy cleaning them, so I go ' Hey I really gotta go, do you mind, I wont be a minute' Hes like, Your not using my toilets, this is a house they are for our geusts' I begged and begged but no.

So I went to the lady at the counter and she says No no, never, so I beg and plead and say its christmas and theyed turn Mary out wouldn't they so they let me go and I use all the loo paper and block the toilet.

So I left and my friend grabs lots of junk and the guy comes out with a big stick chaseing us and so my friend lights some serviettes and throughs them at him.

Then I went to a fire and tryed to put it all back together and neat and get some guy to help and the guy talks religion at me for what seems like ever, 2 guys play some music.

I run off and ask my mother for a light, suprisingly she says yes and shows me a cool light, that I think shed been trying to show me all night! I have a good night and wake up happy! What do you think?

Toilet dreams are very common - especially if you need to go!

Toilet dreams can also be about letting go of thoughts/feelings/habits that are no longer needed or desirable - in this case perhaps sexual.

In the dream there are repeated difficulties/obstacles until you ask your mother for a light. 'Mother' could represent a mature female attitude or influence - this could literally be your mother but more likely your mature female self.

Light can represent uplifting or better thoughts. Perhaps your mature female self is asking you to let go of immature (sexual?) thoughts/ feelings/habits.

i am standing in front of all the people i care most about and they pour petrol over me and laugh at me and set me alight

Your feelings during or after this dream may give you a clue to its meaning - Did you feel ridiculed? betrayed? confused? ...

Have you been in situations that reminded you of the dream? This may also give a clue to the meaning.

Are you seeing things as they really are? Are you being too serious? over zealous?
