ESSAY : What is the symbolic meaning of music in dreams?
Music in dreams maybe quite complex to understand as there are several meanings. Music is often linked to plays on words with song titles and lyrics. It maybe also symbolises harmony and an ability to get along well. Loud music can symbolise chaos and soft music efforts to calm you down.

Music can link to a need for more balance and harmony in your life. E.g.

"I just need to get some BALANCE in my life. I always seem to be so moody"[Dream symbol - music files (*.wav files )]

In many cases the song may be symbolic of some lyric of song title that is a play on words. In such cases try to think of a connection between the lyrics and real life emotions. E.g.

"I know I have been a criminal for most of my life. But now I feel I can change and become just like everyone else"[Dream symbol - song with lyric 'people are all the same - you can turn back the sands of time'][the dream which this quote is based is featured in full at the end of this article]

"I hate to be seen to be self obsessed and to be actively pushing my own ideas"[Dream symbol - song lyrics "your so vain - you probably think this song is about you"]

"I really have got to prepare. I have only got a couple of days left. Then I will have to face a major challenge."[Dream symbol - Hymn "Nearer my God to thee" from film Titanic]

"I am sure that my friend will help me out. "[Dream symbol - Rolf Harris's song "Two little boys" which is about two boys sharing their toys]

"I have made a real breakthrough with my son "[Dream symbol - song with lyric "we will rock you"]

Music can often symbolise a rapport you have with someone or an ability to see the way that they see. E.g.

"My husband has a real rapport with my son. I wish I could connect in the same way"[Dream symbol - husband plays trombone]

"Those football supporters had a big impact on me. They seem to have such a strength within themselves. It was quite emotional"[Dream symbol - football song]

Music suggests harmony. In some cases that means harmony between ideas. That everything must fit together. E.g.

"If I am going to tell a lie then I have to be consistent in every way. My story has got to stick together harmoniously"[Dream symbol - singing song]

Soft gentle music can link to a need to slow down. It suggests a slow pace. E.g.

"They all made me feel at home. I felt very welcome"[Dream symbol - soft music]

"I need to sit down and try and concentrate on my college project"[Dream symbol - piano]

Loud music can link to chaos and situations which move quickly. E.g.

"I tried to make her feel very welcome and get along with her but things moved so quickly"[Dream symbol - loud music in nightclub]

"Its been chaotic but I think I coped with all the problems very well"[Dream symbol - loud music]

 THE DREAM When I wake up I was hearing the song lyric "people are all the same. You can turn back the sands of time"

THE REALITY The dreamer had been involved in crime most of his life. He had found it difficult to escape the whole cycle of crime. But just recently - and especially on the day before the dream he had started to turn over a new leaf. He never felt like normal people. He thought he could never live like the rest of society. But now he was starting to feel that possible.

THE INTERPRETATION The song lyric totally captured his own emotions. He felt exactly the same as normal people who do not commit crime. He also felt he was starting to overcome years of living a lifestyle that he never thought he could move on from. Dreams capture emotions and song lyrics are especially good at this. Those lyrics perfectly caught his mood at that time.

Symbolic Meanings
SONG : "a real mood and feeling "
TURN BACK TIME : "the dreamer felt as if his life had started again"

DREAM MEANING The dream has captured the following feeling within the dreamer - "I felt really different yesterday. It was as if things had totally changed. I have led a life of crime for years but yesterday I felt a part of normal society. I felt as if I could fit in in a way I have not felt for years"
