2. Dreams That You're Falling - You Need To Relax NOW!

Image source HealthlineIt's a weird one when you dream you are falling as you can actually feel your stomach go and it seems so real.  Sometimes it can even wake you up. The meaning tends to be that you are hanging on too tightly to a particular situation and you need to relax and let it go.

3.  You Dream You Are Bald - Helplessness

Image source Dreamstime.comThis is a dream that often feels like a nightmare, especially as a female losing her hair. It can signify a sense of helplessness or exposure but, on the positive side, it can indicate a clean mind if the head is shiny and spotless.  Because hair is a strong visual identifier it may connect to a sense of feeling lost in a large corporation or organisation you work for.

4. You're In An Out Of Control Car - No Control

Image source PinterestIf you've got an out of control car in your dream, either one coming towards you or one you are trapped in, then this could signify you not having enough control in your life and stopping yourself succeeding in whatever it is that's the issue.  Use the dream as a positive and allow your instincts to steer you on to the right path.

5. You Dream That You Die - Something Is Ending...

6. Dreaming About Someone - Lack Of Passion...

NYPost.comIf you dream about someone you like or love, it could just confirm in your own mind how strong that affection is.  If the dream is about your partner being with someone else don't assume its true.  It could mean you no longer have the passion for life that you used to when you were younger.

7. Dreams That You Are Scared Of Dying

Image source Daily MailIf you feel a pang of anxiety or even panic at the thought of death in your dream, then that could mean you are frightened of letting someone go or giving up on an idea you have had for a while.   It could signify that you're not yet there in your mind to make the final decision.

8. You Dream About Having An Affair - Escape!

Image source LoveDevani.comDreaming that you're cheating on your partner doesn't mean it's in your mind to be unfaithful as soon as you get the chance!  The dream is likely to be about wanting to escape something like your job or the area you live in.  It could also mean the start of a new artistic project.

9. You Dream About Birds - Get In Touch With Someone!

10. You Dream You've Lost A Limb - It's SO Common!

14. You Dream There Are Animals Nearby

15. You Dream You're Having A Baby

Image source InStyleThis is another very common dream and usually a sign of a new chapter in your life that has yet to unfold.  The dream can also refer to the responsibilities you face and might worry about.  A baby is helpless and you may feel the same because you can't complete every task you have set yourself.

17. You Dream You've Lost Something Valuable

20. You Dream About Cats

Image source Reader's DigestCats, particularly black cats, are seen as bad omens so if you dream about one it could be a sign of disloyalty or deception around those closest to you.  Black cats may also refer to signs of illness to come.  If you chase a cat away in your dream, you could be in for some good luck.

21. You Dream You've missed Your Train Or Plane

Image source OneTravelPanic dreams can be quite distressing and can cause us to wake up in a cold sweat.  If you dream you miss a train or plane and are left waiting on the platform or tarmac, the meaning is often that you are being weighed down by too many commitments but need to prove yourself confident enough to get through them all.  Take a step back and be realistic.
