An interpretation of campus dreams

An interpretation of campus dreams

This interpretation is from ""The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings" and is provided by J.M. DeBord aka "RadOwl". He is the author of several acclaimed books about dreaming, the host of The Dreams That Shape Us podcast, and is a moderator of r/Dreams, one of the largest dream sharing communities on the internet. A campus setting in a dream can relate to learning, knowledge and intellectual challenge. It’s common to dream about campuses after encountering a difficulty or issue for which you’re unprepared. A campus is where you learn and prepare, so naturally it is a good setting for addressing those subjects. For example, you must give a presentation but lack confidence. You dream about being on campus, maybe in a communications class, and it connects with the challenge of learning new skills related to the challenge you face. Or you dream you are back on campus and didn’t graduate. You forgot to take a course, or you suddenly have an exam to take or paper due. There’s so much to do—argh! That can symbolize feeling like you have gaps in your knowledge or preparation. For an example dream, see: Teacher. This theme also tends to arise in the dreams of people who realize they want to change careers. They return to campus in their dreams to think through what they’d rather be doing. Of course, if you live or work on a campus, your dreams about it are more likely to connect with everyday events and issues. More possible meanings are tied to a time of life when you lived on a campus, the social aspects of campus life, and perceptions about what it is like. For example, you perceive campus life as all parties and hookups, and here you are with a job and a kid and no social life. On some level you envy people who don’t have your obligations. Or you graduated and your life is a daily grind of work and responsibility. You miss the freedom and fun of campus life. How do you inject more fun into your life?
