An interpretation of time 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. Dreams can alter your perception of time to help tell the story, the same way that a movie or novel can compress or expand the sense of time passing. For example, a movie can jump forward or flash back in time and the audience plays along. You can live a lifetime in a half-hour dream and it is completely believable. Time in a dream can be used to refer to a variety of situations in life. For example, finding the right time to do something, time to work on a task or project, wasting time, and giving enough time to do something right. You can want to turn back time, or you can run out of time. Time is associated with patience and lack of it. Running out of time in a dream can express the feeling that you have something to do and the clock is ticking. For example, a dream about having only a short amount of time to be with a friend, and constantly getting distracted, occurred while the dreamer’s friend was close to dying after a prolonged illness. The dreamer wanted no distractions so he could spend as much time as possible with his friend. Time runs out for having children or changing careers or telling someone you love him.
