An interpretation of molesting dreams

An interpretation of molesting 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. Themes of molestation and abuse arise frequently in the dreams of people who have unresolved issues from childhood. The first reaction is often to assume you were abused in childhood and repressed the memories, but that’s not usually the case. Dreams make comparisons and exaggerate. What is presented in a dream as molestation is actually an exaggerated way of comparing to how you feel or what you have observed. If you boil down the idea of molestation, it translates as “mistreated” or “abused.” Molested children are, in essence, mistreated children. They’re vulnerable. Their innocence is preyed on and lost to adults who take advantage of them. Your situation might not have been that bad at home, or be bad presently in your life, but perhaps something inside you identifies with the idea of being taken advantage of, or of being vulnerable, mistreated, or innocent. Molestation doesn’t only happen to children. As an adult you can feel molested when someone takes advantage of you and your good nature. You can feel molested in an emotionally unhealthy situation. It can be a way of saying you don’t trust someone—a molester is, after all, someone who can’t be trusted—especially when it comes to children or anyone else who is vulnerable or innocent. A child molester can symbolize something that’s inexplicable in a bad way. The association is created by your being unable to understand why someone would molest a child. In a similar way, a child molester can symbolize someone or something that disgusts you, something representing the lowest form of life. It can symbolize the feeling that someone deserves the harshest punishment. The entry for Rape can give you more ideas about how a dream can start with an idea and branch out to create symbolism. Remember, molestation in a dream is likely to be a physical representation of a personal situation. See also: Babies, Children, Crime, Innocence, Raping
