Dream Meanings for the letter W
Walk
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
Many people see themselves walking along in a dream. It is very
important to remember where you were walking to and if the walk was
difficult or not. The way we move in dreams, or the means of
transportation, may represent how efficiently we maneuver and progress
on our own personal life journey. Also, is the means of transportation
appropriate for the journey? For example, are you walking to your
neighbor's house or across the desert? Jung thought that if in your
dream you are walking to no specific destination, it may represent a
personal search and a succession of changes that one experience in life.
In order to understand the dream, consider if you were walking around
aimlessly or were swiftly going to a particular destination?
Walls
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
Walls as dream images are generally considered obstacles and sources
of isolation or confinement. Some people are emotionally guarded and
feel unable to express themselves freely. If you are such a person, this
dream symbol might be pointing to the walls that you have built around
yourself. Additionally, if you are experiencing challenges and seemingly
impenetrable difficulties in daily life, the wall in your dream may be a
reflection of those factors. Consider your current situation and attempt
to identify the source of the walls in your dream. Climbing the wall
suggests that you are becoming prepared or are able to overcome
difficulties and/or challenges.
War
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
Dreaming about a war or a battle suggests that the dreamer has
internal conflict. One part of personality or psyche may be battling
with another for control and the dream reflects this internal war.
Another reason for dreaming about war is that you may be faced with a
situation that requires you to be aggressive or assertive and to come to
terms with opposition. War veterans and others who have experienced war
first hand may, from time to time, have such dreams based on memory and
trauma.
Water
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
Water is a very common but powerful dream symbol. Its
meaning varies with the details and the mood of the dream. Water is a
deeply spiritual symbol representing the "water of life" or the "flow of
life." Large bodies of water usually represent our unconscious minds
or/and soul experiences. Water symbolizes emotions (rough, smooth,
clear, murky, etc.). Freud thought that since fluids are involved in
sexual activities, at times, water in dreams has sexual connotations.

Common Dreams
Waterfall
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
Water generally represents the unconscious and the
emotions. A waterfall is a positive dream symbol that suggests a
cleansing of negative emotions or psychological issues. Just a simple
visualization or a daydream of standing in a waterfall makes a person
feel energized and refreshed. If the waterfall in your dream is
overwhelming or too powerful for you to enjoy, it may represent
emotional energy and unconscious drives that are very difficult to
effectively cope with on the conscious level. See also:
Water
Waves
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
The waves in dreams may represent emotional fluctuations.
If you are currently experiencing a period of tranquillity and peace,
you may be dreaming about calm waters and gentle ocean waves. This dream
suggests that you may be gathering energy and recharging emotionally.
However, more commonly people dream of violent and dangerous tidal
waves. Tidal waves or tsunamis suggest a period of emotional upheaval.
Anxiety, stress, and unconscious materials may be coming to the surface
and affecting your daily moods. Giant tidal waves may symbolize current
emotional unhappiness and psychological stress, which are threatening to
destroy you. The outcome of this dream may reveal how much strength you
have to "ride out" personal storms. For example, surviving the tidal
wave suggests that you have enough strength to overcome challenges and
drowning that you may be "in it over your head" and should seek
assistance.
Wedding
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
Dreaming about getting married or being in a wedding is
relatively common. If your biological time clock is ticking away and you
are anxious to get married, this dream may be a form of
wish-fulfillment. However, a wedding or a marriage in a dream is a
profound and very personal symbol. It usually represents the harmonious
integration of the dreamer's personality or psyche (i.e. the coming
together of masculine, feminine, shadow, anima, physical, spiritual,
unconscious, or/and conscious components). The marriage in your dream
may represent the union of the different sides of your own character.
This is a positive dream symbol because it suggests a degree of
self-awareness and integration. Many people dream about weddings during
times of stress and difficulty. Based on superstition some cultures
believe that dreaming of a wedding is a negative omen that generally
represents a period of grief and possibly death.
Weeds
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
Weeds as dream symbols represent neglect. They suggest that the
dreamer has not been regularly tending his physical or psychological
environment. Weeds are indicative of negativity as well as growth of
useless and harmful elements in the dreamer's life. Just as we need to
weed out the garden to have healthy plants, we need to weed out the
negativity in our minds and lives to grow fully. Weeding in dreams
suggests a releasing of stifling and useless thoughts and actions, which
frees the mind and improves relationships.
Werewolf
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
A werewolf is a
creature that does not exist in the physical world. He is symbolic of a
man that turns into a monster, a normal person that transforms into a
bloodthirsty animal. The werewolf may represents something in your life
or in your own personality. When interpreting this dream, consider
internal and external factors that generally seem normal but have a
tendency to transform into undesirable, hurtful, or dangerous concerns
in your life.
Wet Dream
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
About 50% of boys will experience wet dreams. You can't do anything about them! Masturbation reduces the wet dreams for most boys but there is no guarantee about that outcome! Wet dreams often produce less guilt than masturbation but can produce more worries about the nature of the dream.
For the young wet dreams and orgasms in a dream are very common (Also known as "wet dream"). In these cases it is simply a reflection of your awareness of the physiological change taking place. For adults, it indicates the flow of your creative energies. A good orgasm experience may be an omen of success or a breakthrough. A frustrating sexual experience usually is a symptom of an energy blockage.

Intercourse or
Homosexuality.
Whales
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
For most people, dreaming about whales is a pleasant
experience. These huge water dwelling mammals may be symbolic of the
connection that exists between the unconscious and conscious mind. They
may represent the dreamer's level of awareness, perceptiveness, and
intuition. Some think that they represent our emotional power or are
messengers from the spiritual realms. If the ocean waters were
turbulent, and the whale in your dream was unpredictable or on the
attack, considers the emotional environment in your every day life.
Under such unpleasant dream circumstances, these large animals may
represent overwhelming emotional or psychological issue and problem.

Wind
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
The wind in your dream could be symbolic of your own spirit
or the life force. The wind may represent changes in your life. The
greater the force of the wind, the grater the change. A very gusty wind
could represent stress and turmoil but also the energy that you need or
have to make changes. The sound of the wind and the movement of objects
around you are probably what alert you to the wind in the dream, rather
than a sensation of wind on your skin (most people don't have tactile
experiences in their dreams). The sound of the wind is considered by
some to be special because it is a sound of nature and has spiritual
significance.
Window
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
A window is a rich dream symbol. Its accurate
interpretation can lead to awareness and a better understanding of a
personal outlook on life. If you are looking through the window, pay
close attention to what you are looking at. Is it a beautiful landscape
or a scene dealing with an experience or a situation from your past?
Looking through a window and seeing a beautiful landscape may represent
your desire for greater satisfaction and more peace in your life. If you
are seeing something familiar, you may be able to perceive the situation
in a new way and gain some insight. Some say that a window may represent
a time frame. A closed window suggests and inability to effectively
communicate and an opened widow may represent desire for new adventure
in life. Windows in our houses allow us to see the world on the out
side, the windows in our dreams may encourage us to better see the world
within ourselves, as well as the world outside.
Wings
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
In the United States (and maybe all
around the world), there is a renewed interest in angels. People are
thinking about them and surrounding themselves with images of them.
Angels seem to have gained respect and appreciation and their wings are
their most famous and valuable characteristic. Wings are associated with
flying, which in turn is associated with freedom and the heavenly
domain. Dreaming about wings suggests that you may have a desire to be
"angelic," have a need for angelic protection, or want to transcend any
current difficulties and problems. Consider the mood of your dream and
what type of wings you were seeing. If they were animal wings, look up
birds. Superstition based dream interpretation
books say that if you hear gentle flopping of wings you will hear good
news. However, loud and powerful flapping of wings is said to be a
warning against illegal or immoral activities, specifically those in
which money is involved. See also:
Flying
Witch
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
The witch in your dream could represent evil and ugliness or
something more desirable such as enchantment. The word witch
is usually used to describe a mean and heartless person, and in your
dream you may be making associations in regard to yourself or someone
else that fits that description. A witch could also represent power,
magic, and goodness. "White magic" is as popular and culturally
significant as darker witchcraft. However, whether good or evil, the
witch always tries to defy natural law and uses a short cut to
accomplish a task. Ask yourself questions about the general message in
the dream; is it about revealing negative characteristics or about
solving your problems and getting what you want out of life by using
shortcuts? The most positive connotation of this dream could be that it
encourages you to solve difficulties by using creativity and intuition
and brings you closer to finding powerful and magical parts of yourself.
Wolves
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
Wolves may have positive or negative meaning and may
represent good or evil in dreams. They could represent hostility,
aggression, sneakiness, and ferocious appetites. In some cultures,
wolves represent feminine energies and in others masculine. In the
Native American culture and tradition, the wolf is a symbol of a
mysterious and wonderful teacher. Wolves are considered to be powerful
guides who offer wisdom and enlightenment. When interpreting your dream
consider your feelings in it and the mood upon awakening. If you were
mesmerized and not afraid, then give your dream positive meaning and
accept its message.
Woman
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
A woman or women generally represent intuition, creativity,
nurturing, and love. At times they can also represent the negative
attributes which are given to women and include physical and emotional
weakness, gossip, martyrdom, passivity, moodiness, temptation, and
guilt. The content of the dream is to be considered, as well as the
emotional tone. If the dream is sexual in nature, look up sex. If the
woman in your dream was a stranger and you are a man, she could be
symbolic of your feminine side or your attitude about women. If you are
a woman, this stranger may be symbolic of different parts of your
character or personality. Carl Jung believed that the unknown woman in a
man's dream is the Anima. It is the "personification of the animated
psychic atmosphere; the autonomous activity of the unconscious." Thus,
when you meet an unknown woman in your dreams, pay close attention to
what she is saying and doing. It is Carl Jung who suggested that women
in dreams represent our collective unconscious and men collective
consciousness. Thus, the woman is that force or current inside of you
that nudges you on and inspires you. It is your intuition and the
knowledge that in not necessarily attached to words. Men, on the other
hand, represent the active part that uses the information received to
create the physical reality of our lives. When the two are working
together well we have balance and experience awareness that leads to
peace and productivity. See also:

Woods/forest
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
They may represent your unconscious or your "mental space". If you
are lost in the woods it may be a reflection of feelings of confusion
and lack of clear direction. See also:

Worms
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
What thoughts come to mind when someone is called a worm?
When we are dreaming about these animals, we may be reflecting on the
more negative aspects of our own or someone else's personality. Worms
are usually associated with weakness and sneakiness. They are blind and
generally feed on decaying matter. To associate these characteristics
with any individuals, including yourself indicates that you are seeing a
very negative side of them and have a generally low opinion of them (or
yourself). If you are dreaming about earthworms, the connotation is more
positive because they make contributions to the general health of our
environment. Old, superstition based dream interpretations say that
dreaming about worms is a warning about poor health.
Writing
dream interpretation
meaning of dream
Writing is a means of communication. In dreams it may be a symbol of
communicating with others, but it mostly represents communication with
oneself. If you are writing in a dream or reading someone else's
writing, it may be an unconscious effort to become aware of forces or
issues in life. Writing is a secondary form of communication. Speaking
is more direct and less cumbersome for most. Thus, the written message
in your dream may be disguised or may be less genuine than other forms
of receiving information from the unconscious. You may be trying to
figure something out and this might be the first step in that process.
