Dreaming of Youth

youth · mixed

Youth in a dream sets seeing young people, a good sign, against becoming young again, which mostly points to regret and decline.

What happens in the dream

  • Seeing young people at school: prosperity and usefulness will surround you
  • Dreaming of youths more generally: you'll live to a great age
  • Seeing yourself young again: you'll try hard to recover lost chances and still fail, and for an older person the omen is grave
  • Seeing your grown child as an infant again: old wounds will heal and hope will return
  • Seeing young people: family quarrels mended and a good time to start new ventures
  • That child seeming to be dying: misfortune and misery

How you felt

  • Nostalgia: the dream often reflects longing for a past time or missed chances
  • A wish for renewal: it may mirror a desire to recover energy and hope

Ask yourself

  • What do I regret not having done?
  • What fresh start could I make today?
