This dream often predicts troubles and real fear. But the interpretation of the vision depends on what exactly you were afraid of.
The dream book gives many interpretations to night scenes in which the dreamer fears something, so when deciphering a dream you should pay attention to the reason for the appearance of fear.
It may be causeless or associated with various unfavorable events. Sometimes night scenes echo the dreamer’s real fears, so the dream book gives several interpretations of frightening scenes.
Before interpreting a dream, remember whether the dream can literally come true. If possible, try to be careful in reality for a few days. This is how modern books most often interpret this night vision.
Work on yourself and help your loved ones
Did you dream of being afraid of heights? This means: the sleeper is afraid of future problems. Life changes that he fears are possible. However, such a vision warns: fears are unfounded, because the changes will be favorable.
A strong fright in a dream reflects the fears of the sleeper, as well as the need to get rid of them. Often a dream of fear is a projection of far-fetched anxiety (only sometimes it has a basis). You need to try to overcome your fears.
Why do you dream about fear of heights? According to the dream book, if this happens on the roof of a high-rise building and you are afraid of falling, it means you need to take care of your loved ones. Someone in your family needs your help.
Children's horror stories
The human psyche is very vulnerable, especially in the early years.
A child can be afraid of anything in a dream, so he often sees the embodiment of his daytime experiences and threats. Such stories are associated with the fact that the psyche begins to process terrible events. Therefore, after a horror story, the child either ceases to be afraid of what he dreamed or begins to plunge even more into nightmares. The interpretation of children's fears depends on whether what the child sees in a dream is real or not.
A vision in which a child is afraid of the dark often means that he is afraid of loneliness or is endowed with a developed imagination. The exact meaning of the dream depends on where one is located in it.
It’s just that darkness and the absence of parents and teachers in kindergarten mean that the child’s greatest fear is rejection.
If he regularly dreams that his parents have left and he is left alone at home, there is nothing wrong with that. Over time, the child outgrows this fear and begins to feel free in the dark.
If the darkness scares him, there are all sorts of monsters and monsters in it, this is an unfavorable sign. The dream indicates that he is either being deliberately frightened by someone adult or an older brother or sister, or that he has watched horror films or scary fairy tales.
Repeating pictures in which a child begins to be afraid of a secret room in the house, an attic, a basement is a necessary stage of growing up. Usually such fears go away on their own without causing any harm to the child.
Especially if he overcomes this feeling and looks into the basement or somewhere he was previously afraid to go. Such nightmares extremely rarely predict trouble and have nothing to do with mental disorders or prophetic dreams.
It’s a completely different matter if a child has a recurring nightmare, which could very well happen in reality. The fear of a child, if he sees in a dream the bloody corpses of his parents, war, maniacs, may indicate an approaching danger to the life of both himself and his loved ones.
Abstract nightmares that are not associated with daytime experiences are considered especially serious. For example, a girl who died of an infectious disease at the age of 9 regularly dreamed that she was sick and that black birds were covering her face and nothing could be seen behind them.
Or she sees the decomposition of animal corpses, for example, mice, and similar fears have haunted the dreamer for a long time. Children rarely have such dreams unless they are fans of horror films and their very appearance indicates an approaching disaster, which in some cases can be prevented.
Monsters and creatures that do not exist in reality are a completely different matter. If a child is scared by cartoon characters, he should avoid watching scary cartoons and pictures for at least some time.
Over time, the child’s psyche will be able to cope with fear, and it will not affect the child’s life in any way. But if he has a recurring nightmare, such a dream is worth listening to. Especially when the plot is related to hospitals, accidents, corpses or robbers.
Danger warning
The feeling of fear experienced by a person in a dream is a warning of impending danger. Miller's dream book indicates: perhaps the dreamer will be injured as a result of an accident.
Fright from screaming in a dream is a serious warning. The vision means: in reality, danger is very close, but the sleeper does not notice it. It's time to pay attention to what is happening around you, otherwise troubles cannot be avoided.
Why dream of feeling fear from certain things or people? Such a dream promises you disappointment and loss soon.
Interpretation of Nostradamus
The faceless horror experienced in a dream is the personification of a terrible future that not only the dreamer, but also everyone around him will face. We should expect the appearance of a serious illness or other misfortune that will be able to unite and reconcile even sworn enemies.
If the fear arose from the observation of a specific object - for example, from a wolf or a monster - then the dreamer will have to witness disgusting acts on the part of one of his friends. Such a symbol is also one of the harbingers of blackmail - the dreamer’s intimate or other secret will become known to the attacker, who will demand a huge sum for his silence.
Seeing black birds in a dream, instilling excitement and anxiety with just their appearance, means sudden death; the presence of other people in a dream promises a person possible deliverance from a sad fate. An exceptionally favorable symbol is a dream in which it was possible to overcome fear and restore peace of mind - the dreamer will win the biggest victory in his life , for which he will be awarded by fate itself with wealth, fame and honor.
Possible troubles
Did you dream that you were afraid of a poltergeist? You are on the wrong path, so try to avoid rash actions so as not to regret later. To be afraid of a poltergeist means strange events are ahead that will have a strong impact on your life.
Seeing other people as if they were scared - according to Miller’s dream book, means witnessing a sad sight and suffering.
Did you dream of a feeling of strong fear from some events, a poltergeist? The dream book warns of conflicts over trifles. Try to contain negative emotions.
Who had the dream
Dreams about fear are interpreted in a special way if a woman dreams about them:
- most often such a dream promises disappointment or loss;
- if a woman saw people experiencing horror, this means trouble for her family and friends;
- fear of travel indicates that all trips should be canceled in the near future;
- a pregnant woman who is afraid of childbirth in a dream should not worry, because the dream is just a reflection of the dreamer’s experiences about the birth of a child.
For lovers, fear in a dream means a significant event in life.
Cheer up - joy is ahead!
Such a dream can portend good luck. To shudder in a dream or wake up from fright means that the dreamer will unexpectedly receive a gift, money, or acquire useful items that he will use for a long time.
For a lover to experience fear in a dream, it means that in reality he will feel joy. Having passed a serious test, having checked their feelings, loving people will be able to get married, and then both will remember the worries they experienced with a smile.
Why dream of screaming in fear? Freud's dream book promises in reality fireworks of passion in a relationship with a partner that has long been established and has already become boring.
Real nightmares
Adults rarely see in their dreams the horrors that frighten children. However, if night terrors may well come true, then you should listen to them and be careful and change your behavior.
This is how modern books most often interpret dreams in which adults begin to scream and be afraid.
A predator, an aggressor, a bandit in a dream indicates your fears and concerns. Usually an attack by a large lion, tiger or wolf hints at someone's aggressiveness directed in your direction. Most often, such night scenes are seen by those who have many enemies and competitors.
If the attack happens suddenly, then beware of other people's hostility. Animals in a dream indicate the animal nature of people. Usually the aggressor is somewhat reminiscent of the predator you dreamed about.
For example, an aggressive and domineering person with an unfriendly attitude often dreams of an attacking lion or tiger. A woman may dream of an aggressive rival in love in the form of a puma, tigress or wild cat.
An attack by bandits in the dark indicates a subconscious fear of robbery or attack. People often see such stories after crime chronicles or stories from friends.
For young girls to be frightened by an unpleasant stranger in a dream is a sign of subconscious fear of male aggressiveness.
A dream in which a rapist, maniac, murderer and inadequate person begins to pursue you indicates that you are afraid that the man will be persistent.
But sometimes people have such a dream as a sign of danger to life or fear of scandals or inadequate fans, drug addicts or drunkards.
Run away from such a person or give him a worthy rebuff - you will cope with fear. Especially if you managed to defeat a rapist, terrorist, robber or bandit, who, according to the plot of the dream, has been wanted by the police for a long time.
Fear of robbery, ruin or natural disaster may indicate that the dreamer is afraid of losing something in life. It is possible that in reality there is a person who is trying to get around you or deceive you.
To dream that your apartment is robbed, your wallet is missing, or someone is threatening you is a negative sign. You may lose something important and valuable to you.
Miller writes that such night scenes are often seen by people who are oppressed or persecuted. For example, relatives are laying claim to an apartment or are actively interfering in your life; in your dream you observe the disappearance of something that is important or valuable to you.
If such night images haunt you, learn to protect yourself. It is possible that you will be able to save yourself and cope with difficulties.
Thieves in the apartment predict a danger to your life and health. Sometimes the vision symbolizes robbery or outside interference in your family.
Drive them away - stand up for yourself. This vision indicates that you will cope with all difficulties.
Business sphere
The interpretation of a dream about fear sometimes has the opposite meaning. That is, in reality the dreamer will experience joy, and all his undertakings, contracts, business meetings will be successful.
Seeing other people’s fear means, according to the dream book, your financial situation may worsen. Avoid unnecessary and excessive spending.
Why dream of experiencing a strong fright, but coping with it? In reality, everything will be fine with you, despite minor adversities. Things will end well, you will be able to devote time to your favorite activities.
When you had a dream about fear
Fear that appears in a dream can carry different meanings, which vary depending on the day of the week:
- Dream from Sunday to Monday. The dreamer shows excessive gullibility towards his ill-wishers.
- Sleep on the night from Monday to Friday. The sleeper remembers his own failures too often, which prevents him from moving on.
- Vision on Saturday or Sunday night. The dreamer will have an excellent opportunity to change his life for the better. Under no circumstances should you miss the chance.
Fear experienced in a dream, as a rule, reflects the dreamer's internal experiences. If you feel frightened in a dream, you should be more attentive to yourself and your own feelings. By correctly deciphering the vision and using the interpreters’ tips, you can bring your life to harmony.
