The Curious Dreamer’s Dream Dictionary

by Nancy Wagaman
Getting rid of or cleaning out.

Rejecting or rejection.

Denial.

Someone or something that you feel gets “dumped on” with unwanted things, responsibilities, tasks, toxic emotions, or other “garbage.” Neglecting or avoiding a responsibility by trying to “throw it away” (for example, throwing away a bill that’s due or a report card you don’t like).

Secretly throwing things away can represent shirking responsibilities, being dishonest, or thumbing your nose at authority or rules.

My Dream Interpretation

by myjellybean
To dream that you are throwing something into a garbage can, suggests that you are getting rid of your old negative habits and unwanted traits.

To dream that you are emptying someone else’s garbage can, foretells that you will be asked to help repair a friend’s reputation.

Strangest Dream Explanations

If the garbage can is empty, you have either done your emotional cleansing or you have yet to begin.

If the garbage can is filled, then your negative feelings, memories, attachments and emotions need to be released. Identify what it is that you are throwing away.
