Dreaming of Pleasure

pleasure, enjoyment, fun · mixed

Pleasure in a dream cuts both ways: gain and enjoyment, or disappointment if the delight is overwhelming.

What happens in the dream

  • Dreaming of pleasure: gain and personal enjoyment
  • Feeling intense pleasure: expect a serious setback in a project you care about

How you felt

  • Wellbeing: the dream often reflects a need to treat yourself kindly
  • Distrust of happiness: it may mirror a fear that great joy must be paid for later

Ask yourself

  • Do I let myself fully enjoy the good moments?
  • Which project is worrying me enough to fear how it ends?
