The Tooth Fairy didn't prepare us for this.
ENTITY explains the meaning behind common dreams, such as teeth falling out.Dreaming about anything besides winning millions of dollars from the lottery is never any fun, especially when these dreams make absolutely zero sense. Teeth falling out dreams? Dreams of being naked? Dreams of falling?
Still, don’t stress it! Keep in mind that most of these dreams are contingent on each person’s individual experiences. Let’s break them down.
In our youth, having teeth fall out symbolized growth. No matter how scary it would seem to have a tooth yanked out of our mouths with a string, there would still be something to look forward to at the end of the night from the Tooth Fairy. We’d the place the fallen tooth under the pillow in exchange for a present, so we’d lose teeth but get rewarded for it. That’s not the case anymore.
Now, dreaming of having teeth fall out is far from what we would expect from the Tooth Fairy. It’s not fair, and quite terrifying. Teeth falling out dreams? The Tooth Fairy didn’t prepare me for this.
Insider reports that this dream occurrence can be symbolic of needing to keep track of your communication habits. There are even claims that such occurrences might be hinting at an underlying fear of aging, money troubles, sharing thoughts or dealing with an inferiority complex. Additionally, these dreams can hint at a fear of rejection given that our teeth are a focal point of our faces.
Overall, dreaming of teeth falling out can be caused by underlying anxieties.
This type of dream varies greatly depending on the context. If you dream of being naked in public, then this could be a sign of insecurity, embarrassment and shame. However, it depends on how the dream itself made you feel. If this dream of being in the nude made you feel comfortable and empowered, it can instead showcase a desire to be admired.
Falling when we’re awake is not fun, and falling in our dreams is also not exactly welcomed either. These dreams are some of the most common on the list, but their meanings can vary. Some say these dreams indicate a state of serenity. Others note that they may be an indication of more deeply rooted issues dealing with lack of emotional security. Additionally, they can hint at a feeling of being overwhelmed.
Running? During sleepy time? No thanks.
Dreaming of being chased can actually be traced to your subconscious. These dreams get at any underlying issue that you may be avoiding, whether it be a person or an event. If you’re experiencing these dreams, you may be “running away” from your problems.
These dreams may suggest that you’re trying to avoid people or issues that are annoying you or causing you trouble. When facing these dreams, it’s important to reflect on who is doing the chasing, not necessarily what. Being chased by a car versus a bike is just a reflection of western culture, and is typically not regarded as significant by dream analysts.
Dreaming of a significant other may seem like cause for alarm if you’re superstitious. However, it’s important to remember that dreams are not a literal reflection of what is going on in reality. For instance, if you dream that your partner is cheating on you it doesn’t mean that you should wake up and confront them about this. Instead, these dreams point to your own perception of the relationship.
If you have constant dreams about someone in your life, then this person means something more to you. These recurring dreams suggest that they made an impression on you. So, if you’re dreaming about your crush for months on end, it means they’ve managed to make their way into your subconscious.
No matter what you dream about, whether it be teeth falling out dreams, falling or being naked, remember you can leave them all behind once you turn your morning alarm off! If you want to avoid facing these dreams tonight, read ENTITY’s tips on how to have better dreams.
