Phones serve many functions and have many uses, and in dreams they have a wide variety of possibilities for symbolism and meaning. The first function to consider is that phones are used to communicate. Being on the phone with someone can symbolize expression of your feelings and thoughts. Dreaming about wanting to phone someone can mean you want to say or express something to that person. The idea can be used to express the desire to know what that person feels and thinks about you or some situation. See: Speaking The symbolism often arises in connection with romantic relationships and possibilities for them. For example, wanting to phone a romantic interest in a dream occurs after the dreamer has dropped hints about being interested in dating a certain person but has not received a reply. The dream is simply a reflection of the dreamer’s thoughts about calling the person and being more direct. Wanting to phone an ex in a dream occurs as the dreamer has thoughts about getting back together. A call to an ex that goes to voice mail symbolizes the mixed signals the ex is giving about getting back together. See: Former partners A phone dropping the call or malfunctioning is a classic sign of symbolism for communication problems. In this sense, connection means personal connection, and if the phone doesn’t work the way it’s supposed to, it can mean that a personal connection is lost or fails to establish. It can express the feeling that something is wrong with the relationship or the person. A bad signal can symbolize that you’re not getting your point across, or feel that someone isn’t really listening. Someone ignoring you on the phone, either by avoiding the call or not responding during the conversation, can express the feeling that the person is ignoring you or not meeting your needs. Modern phones have uses that go beyond basic communication. For one, they can contain a lot of personal information. Someone going through your phone can symbolize privacy invasion or fear of exposure. For example, people cheating in a relationship are sometimes exposed because their mates find incriminating evidence on their phones. Losing your phone can symbolize the loss of something important to you. Branch out to consider any type of loss of something important: of a relationship, of opportunity, of personal identity, of face. Such as in a dream about losing a phone after someone has lost a job. The phone is used to mean the job. Modern phones are used for getting information through the internet, keeping track of appointments, and playing games, and dreams can start there and potentially branch out in many directions. For more ideas along this line, see: Computer. Phones can be a huge distraction, and can symbolize being ignored or inattentive. A person using a phone is distracted, and this idea is used in dreams to symbolize situations and feelings related to not getting the attention you want. Dreams can project aspects of yourself onto dream characters, so keep in mind that what you see in a dream character may actually be what you see in yourself. For example, a mother dreams about being at a park with her child as other mothers and children play. She notices that one of the children is walking quickly toward a busy street, and its mother doesn’t notice because her attention is consumed by her phone. The dreamer yells at the mother to get her child, and the mother, when she notices what’s happening, jumps up and rescues her child. She apologizes, saying that she hates her phone sometimes because she constantly feels the need to engage with it. It would be easy to assume that the dream character represents someone the dreamer knows or a specific situation she observed, but the dream is actually pointing out the mother’s own distractions with her phone. She’s careful about using it while driving and is conscious of staying off it during family time. However, it’s still a distraction, and the statement at the end of the dream about needing to be engaged with it is actually how the mother feels. Maintaining her social and business relationships requires her to be on the phone more than she wants to be. A phone call can symbolize the process of communication between areas of the mind and between the mind and body while dreaming. Dreaming is well known in neurology for facilitating communication between areas of the brain. See: Letters See also: Computers, Ears, Emails, Hearing, Lost things
