Be honest: Have you ever tossed and turned at night over an overdue debt, jolted awake in a cold sweat dreaming of a lost purse ... or awoken with a smile because you dreamed of an unexpected windfall? OK, the latter isn't as popular a dream as the first two, but I would assert we've all had a financial "win" dream ... even if we left it in dreamland and forgot to deposit it in our long-term memory bank.
In most money dreams, you're either chasing it, losing it, spending it, finding it, fighting for it, hiding it or reveling in it. You don't have to be Carl Jung (the psychologist who, in my opinion, surpassed Sigmund Freud as the godfather of dream interpretation) to realize these dreams are a reflection of our real life fears, struggles, attitudes and beliefs about the mighty green.
More than just revealing our dysfunctional fears and phobias about money, these dreams are our friends because, if we look closely, they give us hints and clues as to how to discover our own path to gold. For example, in 1937 Colonel Harold Dickson's nighttime dream revealed the clues that led him to his first major oil discovery (which later became the Kuwait Oil Company). More modern examples resulted in the goldmines known as "Avatar," "Twilight" and Monster.com.
Below are a few snapshots of money dreams recently sent to me from non–Paris Hilton types. Maybe they'll trigger your own memory bank:
"In my dream I'm carting about a wheelbarrow filled with money, and no matter how carefully I walk, the money keeps falling out."
You're thinking way too small, being way too controlling ... and it's not working!
I believe this dream is telling you that the way you are going about making/getting/earning money is antiquated, unstable and out of balance, not to mention stressful! My advice is to embrace 21st-century financial options, and perhaps invest in a more modern "vehicle" by which you allow money to move in and through your life.
"I'm at a grocery store at the register ready to check out. I search for my credit card in my purse and it's missing!"
Stop checking out!
Your dream may be telling you to be more aware of mindless spending. A "credit" card may also be symbolic of giving credit where it is due. Where do you discredit yourself, and where are you withholding deserved praise? Stop sleepwalking regarding your financial affairs. Be more conscious, aware and awake when it comes to the checks and balances of your energy and keep in mind what you appreciate appreciates.
"I'm on a shopping spree and I feel like Queen Midas. Everything I find fits and looks great on me ... and is in my favorite colors. It's amazing!"
You are at a choice!
You're shopping for the things in life that energetically fit you to a tee -- identifying what you want to spend your time and energy on (relationships, investments, belief systems you've been buying into). This is considered a wish-fulfillment dream. Sometimes these dreams play during times when we are living in the "lack shack" consciousness, in order to move you (energetically) toward the consciousness of your "mansion of expansion."
"I just bought my dream car, and I'm feeling ecstatic as I cruise down the highway having a great time."
You're in the driver's seat of your life ... and you're going places!
Consult your internal GPS to become clear about where you want to go, why you want to go there, and the best way of arriving joyously at your destination. You clearly have the drive to take you there. Identify your "vehicle" (project, relationship, or opportunity), make sure it is aligned with your life's direction, then get into gear to accelerate its manifestation.
'I open my purse and discover it's filled with cash. I hear myself say, "I must have won the lottery!"'
Ka-ching!
Winning the lottery or coming into a windfall is another wish-fulfillment dream. Your subconscious mind cannot discern between actual events and that which is vividly imagined, so your wish-fulfillment dreams create an energetic map that can lead you from where you are to where you would like to be. Just as people who are wealthy attract more wealth and happy people attract more circumstances to themselves that make them happy, allow this heightened state to make you magnetic to the "real life" fulfillment of your desires. Let this dream be good luck regarding your health, wealth and/or relationships -- a message that you are on track. And if you actually saw lottery numbers in your dream, by all means write them down and give them a spin (or at the very least, give them to me). This won't be the first time someone dreamed of winning lottery numbers!
