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. Jealousy in a dream often directly connects with how you feel. Dreams create symbolism that sparks the feelings or emotions that need your attention, so whatever you feel jealous about is often disguised. However, you can make the connection and uncover the meaning of the symbolism simply by thinking about whatever has made you feel jealous lately. You subconsciously know what the symbolism means and react on that basis, not to the overt imagery, so if you react with jealousy to something in a dream, you know it symbolizes something that sparks your jealousy. Two common sources of jealousy are success and love. You can be jealous of someone’s success, or jealous of the attention that a love interest or mate gives to someone else. Jealousy often arises from feelings of inadequacy and disappointment. It is an “umbrella emotion” that covers deeper emotions, and it projects your inner dramas onto external situations and people. If you feel jealous, your dreams might try to show you the source of the feeling. What’s missing from you that makes you jealous of someone else? See also: Infidelity, Emotions, Shadows
