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

Ancient buildings and cities can often link to thoughts about religion. E.g.

"I am really quite skeptical in life. I am not afraid to go in the opposite direction of everyone else. But so many people claim to have true knowledge yet to me they cannot be all right. So many religions seem to offer the true message but they all disagree with each other"[Dream symbol - heading north in ancient lands whilst everyone else is heading south]

"The next day I found a pamphlet for a nondenominational church that had symbols for different religions and the symbol on my hand in the dream was very similar to that of Spiritualism which believes in spiritual influence on earth after death. The dream could be a premonition of that"[Dream symbol - ancient roman city ]

Dreams described as epics often link to emotions that have felt quite dramatic and important. E.g.

"I have been carried along with a sense of involvement in my project. But now all the work is finished and I will have to settle down to a more sedate pace to life. I enjoy throwing myself into work. It was a really epic struggle"[Dream symbol - roman epic]

"I have been depressed and have felt like my emotions will come as if from the ocean and explode in an epic proportion"[Dream symbol - ancient city]

"Well, I had the dream Friday night, right after I basically got stood up by this girl I really like, so I guess that could tie in with the ghost thing. "[Dream symbol - ancient Aztec looking ruins are haunted]

"I have been told that my manager is actually a millionaire and just works at Walmart for something to do. I was a bit shocked. It wouldn't change my attitude towards him as he is a bit dumb and also a total psycho"[Dream symbol - two ancient looking pots full of coins full of valuable gold and silver]

"Culture and the theater has always been important to me but I have always kept my interest a secret and personal thing"[Dream symbol - Huge ancient tree trunk ]

Ancient times can relate to your own deep wisdom and knowledge. E.g.

"I am starting to understand my dreams. I was thinking about another dream I had earlier on in the same night. Perhaps this linked to my understanding of this"[Dream symbol - I was walking up these ancient steps ]
Ancient times can relate to the harsh reality of life. E.g.

"I do not like some of the people at work. They do not make any allowances for any of my personal problems. I simply just have to get along with things. They are totally indifferent"[Dream symbol - I was in ancient medieval times ][This dream is featured in full below]

SAMPLE DREAM
---------------------------
THE DREAM I was in ancient possibly medieval times. The atmosphere was rather brutal and harsh.

THE REALITY The previous day the dreamer had been thinking about his problems. He was going through soe difficult personal probelms. yet the people at his work place werre totally indifferent and uncaring about his situation.

DREAM MEANING The dream captures the following feeling within the dreamer - "My coworkers are just totally indifferent to my situation. They are not making allowances for my problems. I just have to get on with the harsh reality of my life"

THE INTERPRETATION The dream mind is almost like a diary of the emotions that you felt the day before. So any emotions that come through help you trace the specific trigger of the dream. Many dreams simply just mimic exact emotions. In this case the dreamer felt a real sense of indifference coming from his workplace. So its really an exact match up.

One famous philosopher described ancient times as "nasty,brutish and short". So this dream brings together that sense of indifference and brutal life. Symbolic Meanings
ANCIENT : "Nasty and brutal times - capturing the dreamers immediate ood about his workplace"
