DREAM DICTIONARY : This dream dictionary is based upon hundreds of real dreams and has been meticulously researched. However, the only person who can truly identify the cause of a dream is the dreamer. Use the questions and quotes on this page to help you find out what has triggered your dream.

SHOCK : Shock may not always be an easy symbol to understand. It can obviously link to your total surprise about something. Yet it also relates to how seriously you take something. It may link to a realization that something is more pressing or serious than you first thought. It can also relate to moments when you think something then dismiss it as being totally unlikely.

QUESTIONS to help you make associations(pick the one that makes most sense to you)
- Did something truly unexpected happen yesterday?
- Have you just started to realise that things have changed?
- Have you started to accept that your behavior has been unnaceptable?

KEY WORDS : Unexpected, realization, seriously, appalling, changed(think how these words appear in your feelings about yesterday and your thoughts about tomorrow)

KEY PHRASES(Pick a quote which captures your feelings right now. Think especially of the day before the dream) :
- "I did not expect that to happen"
- "I did not know how to react - it was totally unexpected"
- "I cannot think he seriously believes that"
- "Can that really be true"
- "I had not realised that things had changed so much"
- "I have only just realised that ..."
- "I suppose my behavior has been a bit shocking"
- "people will be appalled if they find out what I did"

Below you will see a series of quotes. Each quote represents the meaning of a particular dream(these are all dreams where the meaning is understood totally). For instance one dream may have meant that the dreamer was having trouble at work. In that case the quote may simply be "There is a bad atmosphere at work". Some information is included about which dream symbols were included in the dream(within the squares brackets). Often a sample dream is included which shows you how the dream interpretation was reached.
