ESSAY : What is the symbolic meaning of fire in dreams?

Fire is also a symbol of destruction and may link to something that is quickly being destroyed such as a relationship. E.g.

"I wish I had not ignored him. I seem to be cutting off my links and friends from the past."[Dream Dictionary - Set fire to kitchen dream][Dream symbol - the full dream on which this quote is featured at the end of this article]

"I was really trying to build up my own self control and discipline yet when it came down to it I just stayed in bed. All that effort into being less lazy was DESTROYED in an instance"[Dream Dictionary - crops burning dream]

"My mom is getting a divorce and its making things difficult for me right now. So much of the life we built up together has now been DESTROYED" [Dream Dictionary - fire dream]

"My son is moving out to go to college soon and I will be quite happy for the new freedom this will give me"[Dream Dictionary - fire destroys neighbours house and kills son]

a fire may symbolise heat within you such as a fever or a very hot and humid night. E.g.

"I woke up and the bed was absolutely roasting. My duvet was too warm"[Dream symbol - house on fire dream]

"I was burning up with fever whilst asleep"[Dream Dictionary - forest on fire dream]

"I woke up covered in sweat even though my bedroom was really cold"[Dream symbol - fire]

SAMPLE DREAM
----------------------------
THE DREAM I am in the countryside somewhere(I seem to associate it with an area where I visited once for a function). I am in a building. Its like a classroom. I am watching my teacher intently(its my old boss). Then suddenly I want to see what the distraction is. I look and see its some farmyard. Its far off in the distance. There is some explosions going off.

Later I am in my home town. I am watching something. Suddenly a man runs very fast and jumps through a shop window. He smashes right through it. Then I am in my old bosses home kitchen. I have not got much time and seem to be trying to find some matches. I then try to set fire to the kitchen. I am trying to burn the place down.

THE REALITY The day before the dreamer saw someone who he met through his old job. He was distracted and just ignored him. The dreamer did not think much of this but he then realised that all the people he met whilst doing his old job he was slowly falling out of touch with.

DREAM ANALYSIS The dream clearly has two links with the dreamers former workplace. His boss and the farm where they held a function. The day before he had a little incident which the dream could be about. He bumped into a person whom he knew through his former workplace. He kind of caught the persons eye yet did not say hello. He was actually distracted so it was not intentional. But over a period of time he was now slowly falling out of touch with many people from his former job. So its significance was maybe greater than thought.

So burning down the kitchen of his former bosses home was a way of showing how this part of his life was now slowly becoming history. Maybe the dream is saying that this was unnecessary. He liked his former workplace. In the dream the explosions are no big deal which maybe captures the dreamers thoughts about this incident the day before.

The dream also captures another moment in the dream. The sense of distraction matched the real life incident.

Shops in dreams symbolise options. The dreamer is reducing his options in life by cutting himself off from people he used to know. The man links with the aggressive nature of his own actions. Ignoring is a form of aggression. Its a male form of behavior. Hence the man runs right into the shop.
