What are possible meanings for dreams of parties?

To dream about a party or festival can indicate you are in a happy mood or feeling good, energetic, and ready to have fun. You have something to celebrate. You feel festive. It can relate to anything to do with sociability and dealing with people.

Parties and festivals can be chaotic and unorganized, which can symbolize a chaotic or unorganized situation in your life. It can be an external situation, such as your merry but crazy home life with your young children, or it can show the chaos in your mind or heart.

The possibilities for symbolism get deeper when you consider that a party in a dream can be used to show the opposite of what the typical party scene implies. Maybe you don’t want to socialize, aren’t in a happy mood, or lack the energy to deal with a group of people. In which case a dream will show you avoiding a party, not enjoying yourself at one, or arriving in a hobbled state, such as in a wheelchair.

The intermingling of a party can depict the intermingling between parts of yourself. Your psyche has many aspects, all of which can be portrayed as dream characters. Therefore, the intermingling of different types of people at a party is a great analogy for times when your internal barriers come down and various parts of you can get together. This symbolism is especially likely if the party in your dreams shows widely different types of characters: the punk rocker, the intellectual, the athlete, the misfit. Stereotypical characters in dreams are a sign that parts of the psyche are taking form. See: Groups

Parties are where people are more likely to say what they’re really thinking or give their true opinion, and where personal items get mixed up. For example, coats and purses are known for getting lost or stolen at parties. In dreams, these associations can be used to tell a story about finding out what people really think of you, or losing something valuable or important to you. For example, losing a purse at a party can symbolize losing something about your identity when in groups of people. See: Lost things

Dreaming about a carnival suggests the need for variety. Perhaps your life has become routine. The symbolism of parties, festivals and carnivals can all connect around the idea of fun, activity and variety.

The symbolism can connect with something inside you that needs expression, perhaps by your being looser, less inhibited. Carnivals and parties are loose environments.

A carnival or party setting can connect with a recent event such as attending a rock concert.

The theme of the party can identify the symbolism of it. For example, a going-away party can symbolize that a time of life is over. A baby shower can symbolize trying to have a baby.

Weird “Romantic” Dream

2 nights ago I had a dream about a girl I only ever met once she was at a friends party she was quiet but I could tell she had a personality as she kinda opened up to me towards the end showing me that she was very energetic and fun (hard to explain without sounding weird trust me). I thought nothing of her besides the fact that she was very pretty but so were a few other girls there. I never thought of her again until the night after the party I had a dream of her in my room and we got along really well, so well in fact that we were cuddling I can still weirdly feel the magic from the dream. We were doing dabs out of a rig and after her dab she laughed laying on my shoulder and we kissed which felt so warm and I felt it for a split second after I woke up. After I woke up I was confused and sad, I felt I lived a who year that was a lie and it took me a couple hours to get over it. I know this sounds like an average cringe worthy r/teenagers post but this dream really fucked me up. If anyone has had similar experiences or comments as to how I can improve from this please let me know.

i need help

hey so I am wondering if anyone else has this or if anyone has advice for this so whenever I have a dream like 90% of the time it comes true I know right that sounds crazy but ill give you a few times this has happened.

1) if anyone remembers that tragic shooting in Florida back on February 14 2018 well I'm British and one night I had a horrible nightmare about a school shooting but not the shooting part I was sat under a desk in lock down position then I was pulled awake by a notification on my phone I was sleepy as well as terrified I looked at my phone the notification was from that news app about the Florida shooting.

​

2) one that strikes closer to home and one that im still trying to rationalise to myself is the Manchester attack no matter where you live you probably know about this and what a fucking horrible situation this is anyway the very night before I had a dream about a terrorist attack at a Katy perry concert I know this isn't the same artist but here is the bit that sticks with me in my dream I was watching the news and the death count in my dream was exact and the death toll wasn't released for another 3 days.

​

3) another less scary yet still strange dream was the death of Steven Hawkins I had this dream then the next day I asked my brother if Hawkins was dead we looked it up and nothing came up so we just continued on with our lives then it couldn't have been more than three days and the tragic death of Steven Hawkins was on the news

​

these are just three examples that are the first that came to my head there are more like the little ones where I have a dream conversation with someone and then have that exact conversation a few days later or once I had a dream that my neighbours had a party with loud music and it pissed my mum off then what do you know that happened.

​

obviously this isn't the worst thing on this page but its still scary and if anyone knows what this is or just can relate as everyone who ive told either thought Im mental or lying thank you for reading this thank you

hey so I am wondering if anyone else has this or if anyone has advice for this so whenever I have a dream like 90% of the time it comes true I know right that...

Unprotected sex dream

In my dream, there was an attractive man around my age who had wavy, shoulder-length hair, olive skin, and a fit body. It felt like we had been friends for a while, as if he had come over to attend my family parties when we were children. In the main event of the dream, flirting turns into foreplay which turns into full-blown sex. I’ll spare the details except for one that seemed quite significant - the guy is not using a condom and ejaculates inside of me. Beneath the pleasure I feel in the dream, there is also worry because I am not taking birth control. He seems completely relaxed about it, meanwhile I flit between feeling shy acceptance of having his children and a determination to feel safe in such an uncertain scenario by reassuring myself that I could secretly get an abortion if I later decide that’s what I should do.

Let me know if you have thoughts on what this dream could symbolize! In real life, I am single and circumstantially celibate

Dreamed about a manipulative blackmailing politician accusing another one of being Pedophile

It was a very disturbing an elaborate dream involving politics blackmail and pedophilia.

There is this very powerful right wing politician R that bullies opposition around and is sadly very very popular. His party hold power in the equivalent of senate and the house and majority of state parliaments as well. I personally hate the politics and demeanor of R.

​

In my dream I saw R holding a gigantic press-conference/political rally with audience in thousands. It was like he was on a stage down in a valley and the audience was in mountains around it. Was like a football stadium kinda view but valley and mountains. Its evening and dark. R walks onto the stage with a kid and says the kid has something to reveal. R starts talking about another politician N. N is a decently well known opposition politician. I don't love N but don't dislike him either. Seems respectable to be holding fort again R and his party. N belongs to one of the few opposition held states.

Now R and the kid starts narrating how the kid was kidnapped and disappeared in and around a guest house/resort which is in the political constituency of N. The kid was thought dead but was very much alive and a captive. The kid was repeatedly abused and assaulted and raped by N and his powerful friends. To the point where the kid almost felt hopeless and started accepting his fate.

Then R starts saying saying he has video evidence. He doesn't want to show the video evidence because of its graphic nature but has made an animation of it for public screening. He plays the animation. It was extremely graphic and bloody. The black and white (sometimes colored) animation had scenes from a very narrow walled space with a flickering clay lamp with oil and cotton wick at the far end, then the kid facing the lamp and the politician N. The place was so narrow it seemed once you get in you cannot turn easily and have to back out. The floor was bloody and the kid was in pain.

​

It was horrible. I woke up extremely disturbed.

​

Clarification: The politicians are real but not US politicians or of any large country.

I’m in a lucid dream loop with Paul Rudd.

Last week I had a nonsexual but very intimate dream in which I ran into Paul Rudd at a resort and ended up kickin it with him for four days. Shootin the shit and eating yogurt together.

Somewhere along the way I realized it was a dream. And when we were both leaving the resort in our separate vehicles, I told him that when we both woke up, he should look me up.

Today I woke up from a dream in which I went to a party, ran into Paul Rudd and proceeded to tell him all about my dream from last week. He got me a drink and I spilled it on myself.

I’m sure next week I’ll have a dream in which I run into him on a jungle gym and tell him about this one. Then I’ll do a cartwheel down the slide and we’ll go get ice cream. Adding another layer on what appears to be my never-ending Paul Rudd dream pile.
