Dream Symbols in The Dream Encyclopedia

by James R. Lewis and Evelyn Dorothy Oliver
A dream of a school group in which one is a participant or the teacher may symbolize learning life’s lessons or being the authority in matters of life. In certain esoteric traditions, dreaming of being in a classroom is interpreted as meaning that the soul attends classes on the “inner planes” during sleep. Such a dream may also relate to one’s social, political, or economic status, or even to one’s uniqueness (e.g., “in a class of her own”). Divisions, often prejudicial, of race, color, or creed may also be indicated by such a dream (e.g., class consciousness, most significantly as practiced in India). (See also School, Seminar).

The Big Dictionary of Dreams

by Martha Clarke
This dream can be a continuation of the intellectual activity that you perform during the day; you struggle to get your thoughts away from it. While the individual sleeps, he or she continues to assimilate the information they have learned. However, the dream may also be telling you that you bore others because when you address them, it seems you are indoctrinating them. In this case, you should change your way of relating to others.

A rare and ancient British superstition says that if you dream that you give a class of poetry, all our dreams will come true.
