An interpretation of incest 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. People tend to freak out over incest dreams, but incest can be used as a comparison to create symbolism, the same as anything else. It’s all fair game for your dreams. Incest is a taboo, and can symbolize anything that’s taboo or close to it. For example, dating the younger brother or sister of your best friend is taboo in some circles. It can symbolize sex—or just the thought of it—with someone very close to you, such as a best friend or teacher. It can symbolize integrating new parts into the personality. Quite often, sex in dreams symbolizes the integration of new parts of the personality. Physical union represents mental union. In which case, incest is simply a way to symbolize how a relative rubs off on you. For example, a young woman dreams about having sex with her brother. During the dream it feels very natural, but afterward she questions whether something is really wrong with her. However, the dream simply shows that she’s been learning from his example how to be more competitive. Sex in this dream means “integration.” It means something about him is inside her. Get the idea? It’s symbolism. Incest can symbolize something that disgusts you, that feels really wrong. It can be a sign of doing something that invites big trouble with your family. See: Family It can be a way of saying that two people are a little too close. It can symbolize talking about sex with a relative, especially if the incest involves oral sex. It can amplify feelings of attraction for a relative and capture related feelings. For example, a young man dreams about having sex with his female cousin and wakes up feeling dirty. He can’t help but notice that the innocent little girl he grew up with has blossomed into a beautiful young woman. The more he tries to ignore it, the more he feels conflicted. The dream is simply reflecting his thoughts and feelings. It’s not saying he wants to have sex with her. Instead, it amplifies his feelings of attraction so he will come to terms with them, allowing him to notice that his cousin is sexually attractive and not feel guilty about it. For more example dreams, see: Family, Sex, Sister. Incest can connect with feelings of shame and self-loathing. In simplest terms, incest means “inappropriately close,” an idea ripe for use as symbolism. See also: Brothers, Family, Fathers, Genitals, Guilty, Being naked, Mothers, Sex, Sisters
