An interpretation of dolphin 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. The symbolism of dolphins in dreams is often connected with common associations such as playfulness, intelligence, and friendliness. Dreams can go a million different directions when using those traits and behaviors to tell a story about you and your life. Dolphins are social and known for cooperation, so a group of dolphins is a ready-made symbol for a group of people that get along—especially schoolmates, because dolphins gather together in “schools,” though the correct term is “pods.” Dolphins are like happy, chattering schoolchildren, and that imagery can connect with similar behavior observed in people, especially children. The powerful swimming ability of dolphins and the fact that they live in water gives them strong associations with emotions, especially joy, enthusiasm, and zest. Dolphins can symbolize ability to navigate emotions and emotional situations. See: Water Dreams have other aquatic creatures to choose from when they want to make a comparison for how you navigate emotions and emotional situations, so a key to analyzing the symbolism is to figure out why a dolphin is chosen. For example, a dolphin can be used to say that you never let anything get you down, or you can get away quickly when danger lurks. Read the entries for Shark and Whale to see how other aquatic creatures are used in dream-stories. Dolphins are known for rescuing endangered swimmers, so they can symbolize something that rescues or guides you—especially help from the unconscious mind. Creatures that symbolize helpful messengers from the unconscious are often colored white. Dolphins hurt or killed can symbolize something that destroys your enthusiasm, or that overpowers your ability to navigate your emotions. It can symbolize something that overtakes your better nature. For example, a shark eating a dolphin can symbolize having to be mean or predatory, though by nature you’d rather live and let live. For a predatory person, a dolphin can symbolize a tasty, elusive prey. Positive dreams featuring dolphins can be a good sign that your life is headed in the right direction. These are common associations with dolphins. Be sure to think of your own associations. See also: Animals, Emotions, Fish, Oceans, Sharks, Water, Whales
