What does it mean to dream about Zombies?
959943
haha, yeah, i have zombie dreams too and they're scary.\n\nso, i'm not a psychologist, or a dream analyst or anything, but i've spent more time than it's worth thinking about why it is that zombies are so scary. and i've come up with several important elements that zombies can represent.\n\nfirstly, they're dead. they're corrupted, rusty and rotten and maggoty, and they move towards you and try to take you in.  this is viscerally very upsetting. we spend our lives in complete denial about death and decay, and so having to face it in such an up-front and non-negotiable way is very frightening. around autumn i always get the heeby jeebies about zombies... i think it's all the dead leaves and bare trees.\n\nsecondly, there's how they mob you. mobs are terrifying, even ones made up of living people, and the confrontation of their powerful and violent collectivity with your powerlessness and individuality gives feelings of overwhelming hopelessness and loneliness and despair. \n\nThirdly, there's how they attack you. zombies are slow moving, but they always seem to get you, don't they. they always come out of the shadows, or from behind you, or from your blind spot. the reason that this is so terrifying in your dreams is that we, as visual animals, KNOW subconsciously that our weakness is that what we can see ISN'T always what's out there. So if your brain is concocting a zombie nightmare, the zombies will always get you from the shadows, or from behind you... because that's the kind of attack that we are most vulnerable to.\n\nthere is additionally, the sense of betrayal which is implicit in zombies. people we love and know and trust will "change sides" and will betray us and attack  and bite and kill us, without even acknowledging even briefly the world you once shared with them, or even recognizing you! the death of relationships, and refusal to recognize that it even existed is a VERY powerful fear. Think about how betrayed lovers speak. they ask questions like "did you EVER love me? didn't our time together mean ANYTHING?" when you're attacked by the zombies of people you know, you ask the same thing. scary. \n\nFinally, there's an oppressive tension in a world full of zombies. there's no home, nowhere safe, nowhere to rest and dream peacefully. No other monster movies really capture this tension as well as zombie movies do... \n\nso yeah, spreading corruption, fear of an overwhelming and oppressive mob, attacking us in ways in which terrify us the most, and the death of love, and the atmosphere of tension. zombies can be scary for a lot of reasons. also, biting is kind of scary. \n\nif you're having lots and lots of zombie dreams, it could mean a bunch of different things. you might be worried or anxious about something in real life which shares a common element with the zombie dream. or it could be something else. I got a lot of zombie dreams when i was on this one antibiotic once, and i also discovered that i have zombie dreams when i sleep near a heater and my mattress is too hot. so it might be chemical or environment causing nightmares, and the nightmares might just be zombie nightmares because they scare the crap out of you and that's what nightmares do.\n\nso before you go psychoanalyzing yourself, look around and see if there's an external element causing your nightmares. good luck.\n\n(oh hey, as i was writing this i realized... don't you think that zombies would smell really bad? you could probably tell when one was sneaking up behind you by the smell... so don't get scared. if you can't smell them, it's just a dream! hahaha!)

Our dreams are a combination of many components: activities we involve ourselves with, internal fears, anxiety, people we have come to know, desires that we contain, and the brain's incredible memory capacity.  It is possible that you have either a fear of such things or a secret fascination or obsession with these things.

Strange dreams, usually *very* vivid and intense, full color, stereo, touch and smell engaged too...sometimes they are sexy dreams, but they are almost always intense enough that at least a third of them feel like I'm actually *in* a different reality (as in paying an alternate-earth version of myself a visit more than dreaming).\n\nAs for nightmares, I really can't say.  :)  My head is too messed up.  The first real nightmare I had, I had when I was eight years old.\n\nIt was a dream of being *shot*.  By an intruder, with a gun, and a bullet, in my *head*.  I didn't wake up until that bullet had hit, and ripped its way into my brain, in ultra-slow-motion, and passed about halfway through, spinning as if rifled all the way.\n\nSo yeah, you could say....maybe I do have nightmares, but I lost my capacity to be *scared* of my dreams a long *long* time ago.

dreams do not always mean what they are about. they are more of subconcious memorys. \nwhat do you do?  what can you do?

I just learned this... When people have worries or anticipations their unconcious mind comes alive during their sleep. Every dream has a meaning. If it's a nightmare, evaluate the dream there may be something in the dream that you need to recognize. Dreams are always telling you something!

Sounds to me like you are having some pretty wild dreams. dreaming things and being possessed are 2 different things.

Dreaming about Snakes means:\n\nIn its psychological interpretation a snake in your dream is a phallic symbol, and to dream of one, especially if it was coiled around you, or otherwise on your body, is a warning that you may be a slave to either your sexual passions or repression. However, according to the oracles, snakes in a dream are warnings of various troubles, obstacles, or treachery. Of course the colors and other details must be carefully considered, but as a general rule: to dream that you were bitten by one portends a period of struggle against unfortunate circumstances, and if it was a cobra, it carries a special warning to guard against accidents in the following few weeks. If your dream featured a snake wound around you which you could not throw off, you are being warned to expect treachery where you least suspect it. To dream of being surrounded and unable to kill more than one or two indicates that you are in danger of being seriously cheated by someone you trust, but if you managed to kill (or get rid of) them all, it is a sign that you will succeed in spite of any hostile opposition; to walk over snakes without trying to kill them suggests that you will, in the end, actually turn the tables on those who are trying to block your way. To dream of playfully handling snakes suggests that you are in danger of being led astray by unprincipled friends or associates; and if your dream featured a professional snake charmer at work, it indicates that you will have to defend your reputation against malicious gossip.\n\nSource: Swoon, http://www.swoon.com \nfrom: http://www.experiencefestival.com/snakes_in_dream

It's hard to know without knowing what all is going on in your life, but my guess would be that you are struggling with some decisions in your life.  Water usually represents \nchange, or a crossroads of some sort.  \nThe devil doesn't neccessarily represent evil in your dream, but could represent something you see as a threat to yourself, perhaps you are fearing a loss of your independence.

Because they are something you fear will happen..or is your conscience trying to tell you something. Dreams are issues you have that have not resolved or things you worry about, or fantasize about but don't have the guts to face or do in real life.

It probably has to do with your life and how it is going.\nStress and unresolved problems may seem to leave you powerless and not in control.\nA tornado is very dangerous and destructive:and if it hits your house it will destroy it.\nYet in your dream,no one is hurt while they are in the house.\nThe dream is fear and anxiety that is unresolved in your mind.\nIt seems to mean that you have a sense of impending disaster:something will overpower you and it will be unexpected and unstoppable.\nIt seems that you will lose a lot,but you and your loved ones will be safe.

To see a skull in your dream, symbolizes danger, evil and death. Alternatively, it represents the secrets of the mind. You may be keeping things hidden.

I looked up the entomology of nightmares and dreams.  \nDreams are sleep or vision or aspirations, all good things.  Nightmares were seen as the indications of something bad, a goblin sitting on the chest of sleeping people causing distress.  So good dreams are normal and so a just called dreams; bad dreams have to be explained and so the idea of nightmares are introduced to explain a problem.

Sounds almost like a plot from the movie "They Live". \n\nDreams can be so abstract yet seem so real at times.  I have vivid dreams at times and they stay with me at times long after I wake up.  Sometimes dreams are just reflection of our Id...our inner psyche...they some time reflect our emotions and our deep inner thoughts.  Sometimes I like it when I have weird dreams...it helps me with my creativity.

Dreams are usually manifestations of what you were thinking while awake. They can mean just about whatever you want them to mean.
