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.

TEENAGER : Teenagers are often difficult to define as dream symbols as they link too many and varied things associated with them. Perhaps you acted in an irresponsible way yesterday? Or think of any situation involved in your life that involves inconsiderate actions, pushiness, rebellion, or teenage over confidence.

QUESTIONS to help you make associations(pick the one that makes most sense to you)
- Have you been thinking over a difficult or troublesome relationship?
- Has someone been very inconsiderate or insensitive recently?
- Do you really not want to do something that is responsible?
- Was someone acting in a pushy or aggressive mood yesterday?
- Have you really wanted to cut loose recently?
- Do you hate someone because they are just like a teenager?

KEY WORDS : Typical teenager!, pushy, insensitive, inconsiderate, overconfident, difficult relationships, no responsibilities, rebellion

KEY PHRASES(Pick a quote which captures your feelings right now. Think especially of the day before the dream) :
- "I really want to have more fun"
- "I stayed up late last night"
- "I know its what I should do but I really don't want to"
- "short and difficult emotional relationships"
- "over confidence"
- "pushing the limits"
- "lack of sensitivity towards others"
- "a lack of consideration"
- "He is just a typical teenager!"

(Now write down some quotes that sum up your thoughts and feelings right now. Concentrate on incidents the day before, paranoias and fantasies, health issues, challenges of the day ahead. Then try to see where the words and phrases above appear in your quotes).

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.

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

Teenagers can link to a rebellious attitude and wish to avoid sensible behavior. E.g.

"I hate taking medication, and I know I have to if I want to get better....the surgeries that are scheduled for the next few weeks are a little frightening and there is a part of me that wishes we could just skip them all together....."[Dream symbol - I was a teenager fighting with my mom]

"I was watching this news report on rubbish yesterday and its almost impossible to live in a totally green way. People will just not follow the rules"[Dream symbol - Teens block off a road ]

Teenagers can link to unsettled teenage type relationships which come and go very quickly and lack real substance. E.g.

"I was propositioned yesterday. Now I realize that my marriage is over. "[Dream symbol - Attending church that I attended as a teenager]

"I have decided that splitting up with my ex boyfriend is for the best. He was too disruptive. Sometimes I just want a quiet life without all the disruptive emotions "[Dream symbol - Boyfriend playing electric guitar very loudly][the dream which this quote is based is featured in full at the end of this article]

Teenagers can link to teenage brashness, overconfidence and lack of respect for others. E.g.

"I realise that I have been a bit pushy. I was going into a place which has its own rules and virtually telling them everything they were doing was wrong. No wonder they treated me badly"[Dream symbol - teenagers are behaving badly]

Teenagers can link to a lack of clear direction in your life. E.g.

"Last week seems so long away. My job was so much a part of my life. Now one week later my life seems so different. I may have to give up my job because of ill health"[Dream symbol - A social worker is supporting a homeless teenager]

Teenagers can link to reckless and immature emotions and generally mixed up emotions. E.g.

"I recently went through a breakup"[Dream symbol - I go ballistic at some teenagers attempting to steal my car]

"My ex husband knows my current boyfriend as they were buddies at school. It makes life difficult. The issue tends to be avoided"[Dream symbol - I am in the room I had as a teenager. I am naked with my boyfriend but my ex husband is in another room with the doors open]

"I am sort of entering into a new relationship and I'm very fearful it won't work. I've had some pretty bad relationships over the last 4 years."[Dream symbol - I am with several people who are teenagers in the dream but in reality are in their twenties]

Teenagers can link to things that you associate with teenagers such as late nights and having fun. E.g.

"I visited a friend yesterday and I think I stayed a bit too long. I think I kept them up past their bedtime"[Dream symbol - the older people go to bed leaving me with the teenagers]

"I am on holiday and feel a real sense of freedom. I want to cut loose "[Dream symbol - I’m on a skate board]

"I miss being young. I get jealous of the freedom that my own teenage kids have"[Dream symbol - Acting like a teenager]

Teenagers are often hated by people who are responsible because they are lazy and selfish and lacking maturity. E.g.

"I have been trying to impress my girlfriends parents but they just hate me. They think I am irresponsible"[Dream symbol - I am ambushed by a group of teenagers with weapons]

"At that moment in time..i was thinking alot about this one girl. i want to go out with her, but she is acting strangly..she doesn;t at all encourage me or discourage me showing her affection. she is just..friendly. well, after the last date, i decided that if she doesn;t get in touch with me first, i shall not get in touch with her either. so that would be it. and so on that day i was thinking of her all day long and whether i made the right choice... "[Dream symbol - like teenage hideaway]

SAMPLE DREAM : Dreams generally link to some real issue of relevance to you right now. They may capture your feelings on some health issue, work problem , relationship in difficulty , your feelings about how things are generally going, your plans for the day ahead or some simple paranoia or fear. The dreams featured in this website will try to reduce the dreams meaning to a quote which captures your current feelings on some issue. When studying your own dreams try to think what quotes could capture your own feelings on pressing issues. Think especially of the day before the dream and your thoughts about the day to come.

THE DREAM I was upstairs in some kind of communal-living place. Some difficult people from my past appeared and I thought "I don't have to work there anymore. I can care without it being emotionally taxing". Then I had to go downstairs to gather my things and move to the room upstairs. I approached the stairs and expected them to be disconnected and difficult, since on the way up there had been trouble. The railing was loose but I was able to climb down the one small/ladder-like staircase slowly and safely. Downstairs my belongings were in a dorm room where people were trying to sleep. Other random people from my past (a kid from high school, a girl from university) kept walking past. Other people kept making noise and turning on lights even though people were trying to sleep. I had to collect all my belongings from my bed (usually in dreams I cannot collect things, they keep multiplying and I get frustrated/late for something). In the middle of collecting I started humming a song (by a band I associate closely with my ex) and a teenageer came in the dorm and started playing the song on an electric guitar (while people tried to sleep). I gathered up all my things. They didn't all fit in my bag neatly, but I was able to carry them. I walked out of the room and headed back towards the stairs to move them upstairs.

THE REALITY Four months ago I broke up with a man I knew was not right for me but with whom I'd fallen in love with nonetheless. After four months of breaking off communication "for good" and then opening it again, and with it hope of it working I decided yesterday that I deserve someone who understands me. I have also moved a long distance since then.

DREAM MEANING The dream has captured the following feeling within the dreamer - "I now realize that the relationship was wrong. He was too immature and inconsiderate for me. It was a bit like a teenage relationship"

THE INTERPRETATION Dreams quite often express similar emotions to thoise we have been feeling in real life but they will feature a crazy plot that seems to link to the past and involve weird symbols that just make no sense. This is one such dream. Look out for key emotional moments and here there is one. The decision to move on from the former job matches the real life decision to move on from a relationship.

The dream also involves this annoying loud music. This is associated with teenagers. That shows that she is comparing her former relationship to an annoying teenager playing loud music. It maybe cool but at that moment it was just inconsiderate and annoying. Quite similar to real life. That relationship seemed like a good thing at the time but often involkved crazy and difficult moments. Maybe she was now ready for something less crazy and more fulfilling.
