An interpretation of invading dreams

An interpretation of invading 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. An invasion in a dream can symbolize something that invades your thoughts or breaks your routine. It can be anything you would describe as “invasive.” For example, you’re trying to study or get some work done and your phone rings constantly. Or you come home to find that someone has been poking around on your computer. It’s an invasion of privacy. See: Intruders An invasion implies a heavy struggle that comes on suddenly, though it might be expected. For example, you know that a major push is coming to get a project done at work, and dream about preparing for an invasion. In the eyes of retail workers, “Black Friday” is comparable to an invasion. For teachers it could be the first day of school. Of course, dreaming about an invasion can be interpreted more literally. For example, viruses and germs “invade” your body. They can number in the millions, so it’s like an invading army, and a person is said to “fight” or “battle” illness. Or you live near your country’s borders and people are illegally crossing over, “invading” your land. Or your company is bought out by “corporate raiders.” Or you have been taking in news about countries preparing to go to war or invading their neighbors and your dreams respond to it. When Russia took over Crimea, people in America suddenly started reporting more than the usual number of dreams about a Russian invasion of America, reflecting the fact that the annexation of Crimea was big news, and some news outlets framed it in terms of an invasion.
