An interpretation of yelling dreams

An interpretation of yelling 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. To understand the symbolism of yelling in a dream, think about why you might yell while awake: to get attention, express anger, make sure you are heard. Now consider situations where yelling is used and how dreams can expand on the idea. You might want attention because you are being ignored, your needs aren’t being met, or you enjoy the spotlight. Yelling in a dream can be a way of acting out symbolism related to doing something that gets you noticed in a good way or a bad way. For example, your promotion at work causes a big stir among your co-workers, and you dream about being in the lobby at work when a commotion breaks out, and people yell your name. Yelling as an expression of anger is a common use of the symbolism, as opposed to screaming, which is connected with fear and losing your cool. It often arises in dreams when anger isn’t being expressed or isn’t effective in changing the situation causing anger. Yelling that increases in volume and urgency can relate to attention, either trying to get it—you feel that someone isn’t really hearing you—or needing to give attention to something. For example, you know that a big test is coming up and you haven’t started studying for it, and the urgency is increasing. In your dream a yell becomes louder and more urgent. You need to study for that test! Yelling is a raw expression of frustration and desire to get your point across. There is a difference between hearing and listening. Just because someone hears you doesn’t mean the person is really listening. See also: Anger, Ears, Hearing, Panic, Rage, Screaming, Speaking, Tests
