Kissing

Non-romantic kissing (such as from your grandma or a friend) can represent perceived affection, approval, connection (or a desire for such).

Romantic kissing or other romantic interaction can represent: emotional intimacy (emotional trust or openness), an interaction (a dialogue or shared process), or a feeling of closeness with someone, remembering when you felt close to someone, liking the person or wanting to know them better (not necessarily romantically).

Unwelcome romantic kissing can represent unwelcome emotional intimacy (such as a stranger telling you their secrets) or a feeling that someone is interacting in too familiar a way (such as acting like they’re your close friend when they aren’t).

Kissing symbolizes a reconciliation with the person receiving this affectionate gesture. The dream shows the attachment you feel for that person; perhaps it is a repressed attraction in real life. Likewise, this kind of dream may come from guilt caused by your minimal affection for someone. Although it might be a sexual dream, kisses, as we said, are identified more with love and how you offer it to others. However, they also have other negative connotations, such as the kiss of death or the kiss of betrayal. In this sense, the dream is showing your innermost feelings.

For gypsy tradition, kissing predicts that a dispute will soon come to an end.

This can indicate a mark of respect or a desire to arouse someone; and that someone might be yourself. According to Jung, the image of kissing in dreams is likely to be rooted in memories of sucking at the mother’s breast.

If your sexual needs are repressed or denied, this may manifest in dreams about masturbation in an attempt to release sexual energy and comfort yourself.
