An interpretation of toilet 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. Using a toilet in a dream can connect with the need to eliminate something from yourself or your life, especially if you vomit, defecate, or urinate into the toilet. For example, you relieve yourself of pressure, burdens, guilt, negativity, high expectations, tension, or stress. Your dreams go through a nightly process of washing that stuff away, at least enough to reset and get you through another day. It’s a physical representation of a personal situation. Toilets are associated with privacy. Using the toilet is supposed to be a private moment. Along that line, being intruded upon while on the toilet can symbolize embarrassment, or feeling vulnerable or exposed. See: Bathrooms, Intruders Dreaming about a toilet can symbolize feeling that something has been dumped on you, such as when a friend dumps all his troubles on you, or a supervisor dumps a load of work on you. A dirty toilet can symbolize a messy situation or dirty feelings. It can symbolize dirty emotions, especially when the water is dirty. A toilet dream can be a way of saying that your mind is in the toilet. Flushing a toilet can be associated with letting go of something, especially pressure or negativity. Toilet symbolism can be created by side associations, such as when a toilet is needed and can’t be found, creating anxiety. Dreams make comparisons that trigger related feelings and emotions, so a dream about being unable to find toilet can connect with a situation in your life making you worried or nervous. Dreaming about a disgusting toilet can connect with your disgust about something. See: Anxiety Toilets are associated with the one place where you can find peace and privacy. It brings to mind the image of the father in a house full of kids who reads a magazine while sitting on the toilet. It might be the only moments of peace and privacy he gets. If you pee or defecate in a dream, first consider the obvious. The dream might reflect the fact that you feel as if you need to use the toilet. Peeing or defecating in public can symbolize vulnerability, embarrassment, or exposure. You did something or showed something about yourself in public that you’d rather not have. See: Being naked Peeing in a way that disrespects a place or person can be an expression of hard feelings. For example, you dream about peeing on someone who insulted you, as a way of expressing your feelings about wanting to return the insult. You pee on a church as a way of saying you don’t respect its teachings. Someone pees on your bed, symbolizing a disrespect or insult that’s personal. A bowel movement can symbolize a period of introspection after breaking off a relationship. You work it out of your system like a bowel movement. Constipation can symbolize holding onto something you should let go. Along this line, a bowel movement is related to digestion, and digestion is used as an analogy for processing experiences, memories, feelings, and emotions. The bowel movement is the tail end of the process, a perfect analogy for the nightly process of discarding unneeded memories. A bowel movement can be a graphic commentary about how you feel about something. To be “shit on” means that someone dumped his problems on you, or treated you disrespectfully. It can be a raw and honest expression of your feelings about yourself, your life, or someone in it as “shit.” See: Excrement A bowel movement in public suggests regret over something said or done that’s publicly known. You showed a shitty side of yourself. A rushing river of brown water or similar imagery can symbolize diarrhea. Exaggerated bowel movements can symbolize moral depravity or extremely dirty thoughts. Shit all over the walls. Piles of it everywhere. These dreams are extremely graphic and reflect the condition of the dreamer’s mind or life. It’s not to say that the imagery automatically has this meaning, but it’s common. A dream about a toilet can come in response to the feeling of needing to urinate or have a bowel movement while asleep. Dreams can create imagery and scenarios based on physical stimuli. Along this line, bowel problems can trigger dreams about toilets. They’re sending strong signals as you sleep and these are translated into your dreams as imagery.
