An interpretation of number dreams

An interpretation of number 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. In meaningful dreams, every detail is related to the dream-story and the dreamer. Nothing is random, so there are reasons you dream about specific numbers. It’s a subject that can reach great depth. Here is a brief overview. When you dream about a number related to a grouping, such as three dogs or five babies, ask yourself whether it connects with something in your life. For example, three dogs might represent three friends. Five babies might represent five projects you call your “babies.” A ten-story building might represent your life at age ten. Each year of your life builds on the previous years, just as floors of a building build on the ones below. Numbers are part of many aspects of our world that can be referred to by dreams: addresses, phone numbers, bank accounts. Dreams are often quite clever in the ways they make these references. For example, let’s say that you work in television production and have aspirations to move up in the profession. You have a dream about finding thirty rocks. The dream is oddly specific about the number thirty. You sense that it has significance. Then it hits you: 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York! It’s the Mecca of network television production in the US. Understanding that reference can be used to decipher the rest of the dream, because now you know it’s related to your profession. Numbers can be used to create an impression, as opposed to a specific meaning. For example, to most people the number 459,824 is a simply a big number and can mean “abundance.” Whereas the number “two” is small, especially if it’s how many dollars you have in your pocket! In numerology, numbers have spiritual and cosmic significance. It takes an expert to explain how numerology works, but it doesn’t take an expert to recognize the significance of numbers in your dreams. It’s something you intuit and feel. With some searching of the internet you can find many resources, and when you find something that explains the significance of a number in your dreams, you will feel a ping of recognition.
