Thursday Thirteen: Dream Dictionary

Published by auria cortes at 8:57 am under Thursday Thirteen

So I had a dream last night. A dream that an agent jumped on my back while I was sleeping and pulled my hair and pinched my nipples. Yep, you read that right. He pinched my nipples and it wasn’t in that nice sexual way. No. It was painful. Also, the faceless agent was a man but I felt it was a woman disguised as a man. Anyway, we struggled and ended up on the floor. And somehow back on the bed. What could this dream mean?

I took to Dream Moods Dictionary to come up with a reasonable explanation. Below are thirteen keywords that appeared in my dream. But somehow I still can’t make out my mess of a dream. Any thoughts?

  • Nipples: To see nipples in your dream, relate to infantile needs and a regression into dependency. To dream that you are squeezing pus out of your nipples, refers to your negative feelings about relationships. You are feeling sexually inadequate.
  • Author: To see an author at work in your dream, signifies that your mind is preoccupied over some literary work that you or your associates is working on. 
  • Acquaintance: To see an acquaintance in your dream, signifies positive affairs in business and harmony in your home life.  It also foretells that you will see or hear from them shortly after this dream. To dream that you are in a dispute with an acquaintance, denotes that you will soon find yourself in a humiliating situation. 
  • Bedroom: To dream that you are in the bedroom, signifies aspects of your self that you keep private. It is also indicative of your sexual nature. 
  • Aggression: To dream that you exhibit aggression in your dream, denotes repressed sexual needs. It is also a reflection of conflict in your waking life. 
  • Fear: To dream that you feel fear, signifies that you achievements will not be as successful as you had anticipated. You are having anxieties in certain circumstances of your life. However, your worries will be temporary and short-lived.
  • Pain: To dream that you are in pain, signifies that you are being too hard on yourself with regards to a situation that was out of your control. It may also be a true reflection of real pain that exists somewhere in your body.
  • Terror: To dream that you are in terror, forewarns of disappointments and loss. To see others in terror in your dream, signifies that the unhappiness of friends will impact you as well. 
  • Back: To dream of your back, represents your attitudes, strengths, burdens and stance in the world. It may also relate to stress and pressure that someone is putting on you. To see a naked back in your dream, symbolizes secrets that you may have kept from others or aspects of yourself that you have kept hidden and shielded away. Consider the pun, “watch your back!”; this dream may be telling you to do just that. Traditionally, seeing a back in your dream, forewarns that you should not lend money to anyone. In particular, lending money to friends will cause a rift in your relationship. To see a person turn their back on you, signifies that you will be deeply hurt as a result of envy and jealousy. 
  • Head: To see a head in your dream, signifies wisdom, intellect, understanding and rationality. It may also represent your accomplishments, self-image, and perception of the world.   
  • Hair: To dream that you are cutting your hair, suggests that you are experiencing a loss in strength. You may feel that someone is trying to censor you. Alternatively, you may be reshaping your thinking or ambitions and eliminating unwanted thoughts/habits.
  • Faceless: To see a faceless figure or person in your dream, indicates that you are still searching for your own identity and finding out who you are.  Perhaps you are unsure of how to read people and their emotions. And therefore are expressing a desire to know and understand these people in a deeper level.
  • Floor: To see the floor in your dream, represents your support. It may also represent the division between the unconscious and conscious. To see a polished, wooden floor in your dream, indicates that you are fully aware of your unconscious and keeping it suppressed.

    I think the nipples is the part to focus on and they have something to do with nourishment, pinching off your nourishment or ability to be nourishing?

    LOL! and I thought my dreams were strange. What if you dream about your online friends, even if you don’t know what they look like?

    What about when you wake up screaming (for real) and can’t remember your dream? I did that once or twice in my lifetime. That’s a great list for a TT. Have a great day!

    I’d say you have nothing to worry about. :) Dreams are just the brain’s way of twiddling it’s thumbs while you sleep. :) Mine are usually full of action as I outwit bad guys during chase scenes, and I haven’t met James Bond yet. (Although meeting Daniel Craig would be nice… very nice.) :)

    Colleen - Interesting. Agents = selling a manuscript. Sold manuscripts = money for the author. Money for the author = money for food. Money for food = nourishment!

    I have to get my agent on the line!

    Turkey Lurkey - hmmm…”way of twiddling it’s thumbs” and nipples…okay, i won’t go there. :-)

    Rain - well you know what I look like so now you can dream of me with my full face in tact. Isn’t it weird when we dream of faceless people. Normally, the face is just fuzzy.

    Marsh - “but i to woke up this morning with sore boob cuz i rubbed” LOL…that’s too much

    Sounds like you’re stressed, Auria. Time for a slow, long, deep massage!

    What a creative list (once again….)

    Your TT lists rule!

    Very entertaining post. I don’t think dreams mean much of anything really, but it’s fun to see what others think.

  11. sunshineon 27 Mar 2008 at 7:48 pm

    I usually can’t remember my dreams. If I do remember them, I forget by the end of the day. You dream about nipples. Hmmm, that can’t be good.

    I’d say you are due for a long, nice vacation. Dream about sunsets and beaches and clear, cool blue water out to the horizon. And perhaps a tropical drink with a little umbrella in it! Dreams are interesting tho — you sure had a dilly!
    Great TT!
