Firing a Gun Dream

Have you experienced the firing a gun dream? Want to know how to decipher dreams about firing a gun? The firing a gun dream points to aggression, anger, and temper in the waking life. Ready to decode your gun shooting dream?

The gun represents a symbol of aggression, power and anger. In the waking life, a gun is viewed as violent. Any person who carries a gun knows they are using the firearm as a weapon and or for protection. Dreaming about a firing a gun conveys to the dreamer they have a hot temper, pent up anger, and want to unload an unresolved problem.

In the Freud perspective, the firing a gun dream is also connected to the male genitalia. A man who dreams about firing a gun is nonetheless capable of sexually performing with their significant other. However, a man who dreams about firing a gun but the bullets remain stuck are possibly experiencing impotence and o low sexual desire. The fallacy symbol is not as prominent in the firing a gun dream.

The firing a gun dream holds several meanings, so understanding the gun dream involves remembering the target. Who are you firing at? The person target can represent the source of your aggression and anger. Are you shooting yourself? (i.e. suicide).

The suicide dream is not as it appears in the waking life. Firing a gun to commit suicide is merely an act of getting rid of the old problems to make way for new changes and beginnings. You are not predicting your death. Please don't consider the shooting a gun dream and suicide as a foretelling prophecy. Dreams are never straightforward, so don't think the obvious in your dreams.

Some people will suggest dreams are just dreams. In any case, these people are wrong since many people across the world experience the same dreams about the yellow spider, examination, candles, three suns, tsunami, falling out teeth, leaping frog, flying and other dreams.

The dream about shooting a gun is about firing off a temper, showing aggression, power, weakness, and various aspects going on in your life. Connect your firing a gun dream to the waking life.

How is temper, aggressiveness, anger, and codependency and other traits related to your personality? Do you want to blame another person for your problems? Have frustration toward another person? Unhappy with your life? Decoding dreams involve understanding the connection to your waking life.

Shooting a gun dream requires understanding the meaning of the symbol and the intended target. Are you shooting a target? Feeling your finger pull the trigger? Guns symbolize either power and safety or they can mean anger, aggression, and temper.

Firing a gun can relieve steam normally creating stress in your fast-paced life. If you commit suicide with a gun, the meaning of the dream, as written in most dream dictionaries, is to get rid of the old to bring in the new. Killing yourself in dream is a dream symbol to convey old and new.

Decoding the shooting a gun dream will help you pinpoint the source of your aggression, temper, anger, and whether the dream symbol is referring you to power and or the complete opposite - codependency in relationships and in life. Shooting a gun is a form of relieving stress associated with making big decisions such as moving, taking a new job, leaving a relationship and other big moves.

Connect your firing and or shooting a gun dream to your waking life problems. Aggression, temper and anger are derived from previous personality issues, traumatic experiences, and current stress. Apply this dreaming guide to decipher dreams about firing or shooting a gun to uncover your waking problems.

Tsunami Dreams

Have you experienced the dreaded tsunami dream? Tsunami dreams are frightening. You find yourself questioning the reality of tsunami dreams. What do tsunami dreams symbolize to a dreamer?

Tsunami dreams tap into the unconscious or subconscious mind. Whereas many dreamers may experience a tsunami dream, there is no actual dreaming guide to decode a tsunami dream. Therefore, decoding the wave dream will help dreamers understand the tsunami dream.

According to Kosrin (2005), "Waves symbolize the power of the unconscious. Enormous breaking waves may present powerful emotions, and gentle waves may suggest a tranquil state of mind" (p. 268).

In your tsunami dream,  do you notice large waves heading toward you? Can you remember if the waves are high? Are they traveling fast? Tsunamis can range anywhere from 10 feet to as high as 1000 feet. These waves can travel at speeds in excess of 1000 miles per hour. Thus, tsunamis hit land, and then break towards inland towns and cities. The speed of a tsunami depends on the source of the power. Did an earthquake start the tsunami? Or did a large chunk of land fall into the water after a volcano erupted?

A volcano is powerful enough to create a deadly tsunami. We never think about the destruction a tsunami can cause until such disasters like the 2004 tsunami and past tsunamis wreak havoc on humanity. Tsunamis are powerful enough to kill thousands of people and destroy entire towns, villages and cities along the coastline. Tsunamis can travel across thousands of miles. Hence, tsunamis will continue to move further inland for hundreds of miles. Dreams about tsunamis increase pressure in the subconscious mind.

If you keep having recurring tsunami dreams, then the dream interpretation suggests you need to release your emotions in the same manner as the overflowing toilet dream. Water is a dream symbol to convey emotions. Calm waves indicate a calm mind. A tsunami determines that you have "powerful emotions" (Kosarin, 2005, p. 268). My past tsunami dreams occurred while I worked on completing my undergraduate degree and graduate degree.

In tsunami dreams, the high waves usually appear violent. I questioned the reality of the tsumani dream, which I couldn't believe my eyes. The fast-moving wave raced toward the coastline in a matter of seconds. On two occasions, I attempted to drive up the mountain in my Acura Integra; however, the wave reached me too quickly. I always woke up prior to the tsunami smothering me inside my car.

Tsunami dreams represent uncontrollable emotions expressed in your unconscious or subconscious mind. You are likely experiencing major stress. There is a chance that past events are straining your unconscious mind (ptsd). Tsunami dreamers must look at their current lifestyle to decode their tsunami dreams. Do people criticize you too often? Are you afraid to express your emotions? Have fear of rejection? Want to forget about a past event?

Tsunami dreams point to emotion distress. Pay attention to the power of the waves. Focus on the height and speed of the waves. If the waves are tame, then you have an open mind. Releasing such emotions before they build up to become a rather debilitating problem can improve your conscious mind.

Holding your emotions inside can force the subconscious mind to adversely react without you initiating the flight/fight response. We can't control our fear unless we learn to understand the source of the problem. Traumatic events linger around in the mind with no end in sight. If you can learn to control your emotions, the tsunami dreams will end.

Some assume tsunami dreams represent dream predictions. In Indian culture, the water is viewed as purity. Evil spirits tend to avoid water. Your physical body and mental state of mind are protected while in the presence of water. Tsunamis are identified as a reaction to a powerful action such as an earthquake, a comet and or a volcano.

Find the source of your problems to resolve your emotional issues. Why do you block your emotions? You may consider looking into the past to improve your future. Don't allow your emotions to over pressure your subconscious mind. Constant pressure can lead to a number of health problems associated with chronic stress.

Tsunami dreams interpret the power of your emotions. The best stress relievers to reduce the frequency of or to eliminate tsunami dreams are to meditate, exercise, and to communicate with family, friends, strangers and therapists. Have a tsunami dream you want to share? Leave your comments below.
