What Do Sweets in Your Dreams Tell You?
Sweets in our lives are generally associated with pleasure and happiness. But what does it mean to eat sweets in our dreams? If you've had a dream full of sweets, don't worry, let's embark on a journey together to decipher what this dream wants to tell you.
Candy or Sweet?
First, try to remember the sweets you saw. Was it candy, chocolate, cake, ice cream? Each one can have a different message. According to Ibn Sirin, seeing candy can be a sign of small happiness, while chocolate can be a herald of greater joy. Imam Ghazali interprets enjoying eating sweets as a sign of a task that you will be met with love. Being inside a sweet cake, according to Nablusi, can be a symbol of escaping material hardship, prosperity and abundance. Ice cream, according to the interpretation of Seyyid Suleyman, can indicate a temporary pleasure.
Sweet, in the Language of Dreams
Eating sweets in our dreams often represents something we are lacking in our lives. Freud associates sweet dreams with the feeling of dissatisfaction from our childhood, "our desire to achieve something we yearn for but have not yet obtained." Jung interprets these dreams more symbolically, stating that they represent "our spiritual hunger and need for nourishment." If you didn't feel happy after eating the sweets, according to the interpretation of Talim al-Hakim, the dream may be a sign of a "period in your life when you are unhappy and dissatisfied."
A Sweet Dream Journey
Deciphering the messages of our dreams is like solving a puzzle. The sweets you saw, other details of the dream and your own emotional state can shed light on the meanings of your dream. Therefore, in accordance with the advice of Abdullah bin Abbas, try to remember your dream in detail and listen to your inner journey. All this information provides you with just a starting point. Because no one but you can understand what the dream means in your life.
