Feeling

Feelings in dreams often represent themselves, meaning that whatever you’re feeling about the dream situation is likely the same way you feel about whatever the situation represents in your life.

Another person’s feelings can represent feelings you’ve seen that person express, or the way you imagine or fear that person feels.

An angry person could represent: a real-life event during which you experienced someone’s anger, a feeling that the world is an aggressive or negative place, your own anger.

The quality of feeling within a dream is important. Note whether you feel frightened, tired, confused, powerful, happy, supported, and so on. The feeling or sense of the dream helps you understand what you are working on.
