According to <strong>Healthline, they may symbolize the latter.\n<p>Such dreams commonly occur during significant life changes, like starting a new job, moving to a new place, or forming new relationships.\n</p><p>However, more important than the dream itself is how it makes us feel.\n</p><p><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"alignnone' wp-image-46803 aligncenter src="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/echowoven.com%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2024%5C/12%5C/462585613_1271957114082532_2102275015515853688_n.png%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"990\"' height='\"557\"' title='\"\"'>\n</p><p>Dr. Rubin Naiman, a psychologist with years of experience studying sleep, suggests that \u201cDream interpretation is about decoding the dream.

At that end, dreaming is considered totally meaningless.\u201d\n</li><li>On the other hand, he notes, \u201cThe other end is that dreaming is more substantial than waking.

Feeling positive about the dream may signify a message, such as a simple \u201cHello.\u201d\n\n<p>Regardless of one\u2019s beliefs about dreams, they often carry profound meaning.
