Dream Symbol: teacher

teacher

Dreaming that someone is a teacher when they are not in real life can mean that, to you, they represent:

  • An authority figure—someone or something in your real life who you allow to have some power over you in some way
  • Someone whose opinions or advice you listen to
  • Someone who has taught you something in real life, or whom you would like to do so

Dreaming that you are a teacher when you're not in real life could mean:

  • You feel your insight would be valuable to others
  • There is something specific you'd like to teach or explain a certain person or group
  • You desire to feel respected or looked up to
  • You're wondering what it would be like to be a teacher (and so you're trying it out in the dream state)

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.
