Ariadne's Book of Dream

by Ariadne Green
Emotions expressing themselves in a dream, which then result in an argument, may be a reference to a conflict between two aspects of your personality Thus, arguing with your father may mean that you are in conflict with the rigid values you have internalized from your father. Arguing in a dream may also compensate for your inability to express your honest emotions with friends or family when you are awake.
