Dream Symbol: friend

friend

A friendship can represent a real, imagined, or desired friendship in real life. The friend can represent:

  • The actual person, or the type of role that person plays in your life: support, inspiration, humor or entertainment, or even betrayal, disrespect, etc.
  • The key characteristics that the person is displaying in the dream (for example, if they are rescuing you, they may represent the idea of help or assistance, and if they are angry, they might represent the emotion of anger)
  • Someone else in real life (for example, your brother in a dream could actually represent someone in your life who feels like a brother to you)

Tips to Understand Dream Meaning

Dream symbol meanings are different for each person. It's IMPORTANT to consider:

  • Personal meaning - What the dream symbol means to you, what it reminds you of, how it makes you feel.
  • Context - How the dream symbol appears in the dream. For example, in a dream about a bee - what was the bee doing, how and where it was doing it, and how did you feel about it?
  • Look beyond the obvious - A dream is often about something other than its obvious meaning. Physical events in the dream commonly represent mental or emotional matters.
