Dream Symbols Beginning with 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. See also:
Ocean, Rain, River

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.

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. See also:
Dolphin

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:
People, Old Woman, and Mother

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:
Tree, Jungle

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.
