Oneirology is a science that studies dreams. Entire treatises have been written about prophetic visions. There are real cases where dreams helped in life. Dreams have been mentioned in all known religions since antiquity. There is a description of how Maha Maya, the woman who gave birth to Buddha, saw a white elephant in a dream before he was conceived. The Koran states that Amina bint Wahb saw a vision of a growing green tree. Such a dream predicted an imminent conception.
In the Christian religion, conception and birth have always been foretold through vision. And mothers did not necessarily have such dreams. Her father Joachim had a prophetic dream about the birth of the Virgin Mary. And the next day to his wife Anna. Although these were elderly people and no longer hoped for the miracle of the birth of a child.
Humanity is accustomed to looking for explanations for its visions. The first mention of dream interpreters appeared on the papyri of ancient Egypt. There are entire treatises devoted to the symbolism of night visions, foreshadowing important events: marriage, conception, birth.
Young girls and women, by the nature of their subconscious, are focused on motherhood. The debate over whether dreams can foretell pregnancy has not been going on for a long time. After such a vision, the woman wakes up with a persistent feeling of imminent conception.
What dreams portend pregnancy? Let's figure it out now.
Fish
First of all, great importance is attached to dreams with live fish. Pictures in which she is present in a pond can be regarded as a sign to a young girl that she will soon conceive. The surest sign is if there is a conversation with the fish, the tongue is shown, accompanied by a smile or laughter.
Catching this river inhabitant with bare hands in clean, clear water is another undeniable sign. Usually these kinds of dreams foreshadow a twin pregnancy. And if the catch is successful and more than one fish is caught, then the number of individuals predicts the number of children the woman will have in her life.
Buying a living river inhabitant from a male or female seller is a hint about the gender of the child. What else determines whether a girl or a boy will be born? The gender is also indicated by the type of fish. Perch, carp or carp symbolize a boy, burbot, catfish and pike are a hint of the appearance of a girl.
Sometimes a close relative (mother or sister), who is not expecting a new baby, may have a prophetic dream. A fish swimming towards the raging mother makes it clear who the message is intended for. What does it mean to talk with a friend on the shore of a pond with splashing carp or trout? Such a dream symbolizes for a girl not her pregnancy, but the one with whom the conversation was held.
Fried fish can also mean a hint of pregnancy. But in this case it must be tasty and juicy. The fried fish should be eaten directly by the girl or her chosen one. A clearer sign will be if you dream of sharing a meal with a dish.
A man may dream about a pregnancy of a friend or wife. Usually these are dreams about a pond with clear water, in which there are a lot of fish. It’s especially good if she splashes happily and jumps out of the water. Another prophetic vision is of fishing with a rich catch, where fish are removed from the hook with bare hands.
It happens that in a dream there is a body of water and its inhabitants, but it is interpreted as a negative dream. The fish was caught by the girl, but missed (slipped out of her hands), such a message foreshadows a miscarriage. But still, even if you saw this, you shouldn’t get upset and set yourself up for negativity.
Interpretations depending on the day of the week
To correctly interpret what you see, you need to decipher more than just the symbols. For a quality interpretation, it is worth taking into account the day of the week when you had the dream.
The onset of pregnancy is foreshadowed by the following visions:
- On the night from Sunday to Monday - puppies and kittens, oranges or tangerines, recently caught fish.
- From Monday to Tuesday - clean water, a swimming pool, a non-flowering pond.
- From Tuesday to Wednesday - planting seedlings in your garden.
- From Wednesday to Thursday – fishing, cooking fish.
- From Thursday to Friday - children's things, toys, conversations about childbirth.
- From Friday to Saturday - telephone conversations, idle chatter.
- From Saturday to Sunday - small clothes, children.
Most often, pregnancy is foreshadowed by dreams about fish, water, and everything related to children or small animals.
Children
Visions in which children are present do not mean that this is a dream foreshadowing pregnancy. Such pictures are often dreamed by pregnant women who are worried about the outcome of childbirth. In these dreams, the mother can see the color of the hair, hear the voice and understand what gender the child is. The age of the child can be very different. Sometimes such a dream is not immediately remembered. After birth, at a certain stage, at some point the vision emerges in memory and the mother vaguely remembers that she has already seen and experienced this somewhere.
Dreams that determine the gender of a child
To celebrate the birth of a boy, you dream about:
- Citrus fruits (oranges, lemons). The woman cleans them and eats them. The larger the fetus, the more likely it is that a boy will be born.
- Calf or pig. If the animals are well-groomed and neat, then the boy will be born healthy and obedient. Dirty or sick animals mean an unlucky pregnancy.
- Knife or firearm.
Citrus fruits seen in a dream can foretell the birth of a boy, and berries - a girl.
Symbols that foreshadow the birth of a girl:
- Currants, gooseberries, blueberries and other small berries. The more berries a girl sees, the easier her pregnancy will be.
- Small fish (fry, sturgeon, etc.). Girls are often born small, so their harbingers are also small.
- Seeds of flowers, vegetables or fruits.
Watermelon
Watermelons symbolize the mother's womb. But not all interpreters come to a consensus on this matter. In biblical interpretations, this berry is a harbinger of imminent conception. There is a modern interpretation of if you saw a watermelon in a dream. Why do you dream about such a berry? There are two explanations for this. For young girls, such a dream speaks of imminent marriage. For patients, such a vision promises a quick recovery and recovery. For men who are busy with business and affairs, dreams with this berry promise a quick receipt of goods or money. What does it mean to choose a watermelon at the market in a dream? Why do you dream like this? For women - to gossip and gossip, for men - to clashes and conflicts at work.
What do your dreams mean?
Carefully prepared and appetizing food portends an easy pregnancy, happiness from the pregnancy process and the health of mother and baby.
Animals
Small animals, such as puppies, kittens, bear cubs, etc., predict the appearance of a baby if the expectant mother takes care of them. Animals foretell pleasant troubles associated with childbirth.
Vegetables, fruits, berries
Eating juicy and ripe fruits or vegetables in a dream means an early pregnancy. It will proceed easily and naturally, and the woman will feel good throughout the entire period.
Seeing rotten food is a sign of trouble. Perhaps the girl will have a miscarriage or childbirth with complications. Dreaming of a lot of berries or fruits, a whole basket or box - foretells a multiple pregnancy.
Watermelon or melon - the subconscious mind suggests that the woman herself will soon acquire a “round” shape.
Clock or time
Finding a wristwatch means replenishment and new acquaintances. Sometimes frozen time on a clock can indicate the baby's date of birth. Losing an accessory promises troubles related to the baby's future.
Other characters
A pregnant woman may dream of storks or cabbage. If a girl sees symbols in a dream after marriage, there will be a replenishment.
The egg represents pregnancy and symbolizes new life. The more eggs a girl sees in a dream, the higher her likelihood of giving birth soon.
Holding a baby, taking care of children, etc. – the subconscious prepares the girl for future troubles. For the same reason, the expectant mother sees herself with a big belly, feels cramping, nausea or other unpleasant sensations associated with pregnancy.
Pregnancy
Seeing yourself pregnant in a dream does not mean at all that it is a prophetic dream. Our subconscious rarely sends clear and clear images that take place in real life.
But seeing a pregnant friend in a dream is a sign that, most likely, the dream will come true. This girl will soon find out about her situation or share the good news with you. For unmarried ladies, dreams in which they are pregnant signify deception and warn of danger. For a married woman, this vision is interpreted differently: it means an imminent major purchase.
Seeing an unfamiliar pregnant woman in a dream means profit and prosperity in the family.
Giving birth in a dream is a good sign for women making plans for the future. The dream means that everything will come true, but you will have to suffer. Taking birth from another woman is a hint of imminent difficulties and problems. Sometimes pregnancy dreams of a salary increase or an inheritance.
What dreams predict multiple pregnancies?
Dreams can give an answer to how many children a woman will have. For example, before pregnancy with twins, expectant mothers often see beetles and ants in large numbers. Toys in a dream also foretell the birth of 2 children, especially if a girl buys or chooses them.
By 3 or more babies, they dream of a lot of fish, large bodies of water, bushes with a lot of berries, peas.
Often several symbols appear in one dream, warning the mother of future difficulties.
Flowers
Some flowers seen in dreams are attributed to the meaning of an early pregnancy.
For example, a lotus flower on the surface of the water or when they go into the water and pick flowers. Cornflower is a sign of an upcoming interesting situation. Therefore, if you have had a beautiful dream where they present you with a whole bouquet of cornflowers or forget-me-nots, you can prepare for an addition.
If you dream about water
Married couples who have been planning conception for a long time and dream of having a baby dream of water. It is important after waking up to analyze the dream and remember your feelings. The imminent replenishment of the family is indicated by:
- clean stream, fast flow of water;
- an endless sea or ocean with a smooth surface;
- the presence of fish, crabs, algae, corals in the reservoir;
- bathing, washing, splashing in water;
- clear water in the pond, clean sandy bottom with small fish.
Some women dream of being immersed in a font or undergoing baptism. A bucket of water collected from a well promises upcoming motherhood.
Objects seen briefly
There are also a number of indirect hints about an imminent joyful event. This includes objects seen briefly, on which attention was not focused.
This could be a baby rattle, crib, toy doll, baby vest, booties, pacifier, baby bottle. Pregnancy also dreams of choosing a new dress, especially if it is blue, as well as peace, tranquility in the house and a pleasant feeling of someone's presence.
Little-known harbingers
Harvesting or eating certain fruits and vegetables indicates an unexpected and imminent conception. A woman can walk through the forest and put berries, mushrooms, nuts in a basket, or harvest from the garden. To conceive soon, you dream of tomatoes, cabbage, apricots, apples, bell peppers. The main symbol of fertility and multiple pregnancies is the pomegranate.
Picking or eating grapes predicts a difficult pregnancy that will end in the birth of a healthy and beautiful child.
Dream books highlight special “round” dreams that indicate pregnancy. In them, a girl or her husband inflates balloons, buys or sorts eggs, eats watermelon, sorts out candies, peas, and pearls.
Emotions at the moment of awakening
The emotional situation at the moment of awakening is very important. A feeling of joy and good mood is the best indicator that the dream is positive. But the feeling of anxiety at the moment of awakening is not always an indicator of bad events in the near future. Perhaps your fears and concerns that you try to suppress find expression in your dreams. Maybe you should drink a soothing decoction before bed, take a warm bath, and help your body relax as much as possible. Peace in your soul will bring peace to your dreams.
The famous astrologer and soothsayer Nostradamus saw a large number of prophetic dreams. He explained this by a heightened sense of his intuition. He attributed these abilities to one degree or another to all humanity. We see hints of many events in our dreams, but we discard them in the morning, considering them unnecessary information.
What does it mean to see children in a dream?
Popular prophetic dreams for a long-awaited pregnancy, in addition to fish and water, are children. A woman can walk with them, have fun, run, swing or feed them. If in a dream a girl goes through or buys children's toys, things, food, she is already ready for the birth of a child and will soon become a mother.
Panic and anxiety in a dream while communicating with a baby indicate an unreadiness to become parents or strong self-doubt.
Sometimes a woman dreams of her future child, not necessarily a newborn. In such dreams you can see the baby, his appearance and gender, hear his voice and laugh.
Psychologists' opinion
Psychoanalysts are also interested in dreams that promise pregnancy. However, they are more based on opinions, dreaming alone without taking responsibility for interpreting other people's dreams. They developed the following diagram for auto-analysis of dreams:
- It is important to save everything you saw in your dream. Pay attention to details.
- Talk about the dream in the present time, as if the events happened right now. It is important to realize what feelings and thoughts dominate: what hurts, what cannot be controlled or forget what you do not want to remember at all.
- Ask someone close to you, observing how your voice changes. Minor changes in facial expression and gestures during the story are important in drawing conclusions about the dream.
- Try to understand the meaning of this dream. What is important to implement?
Psychoanalysts are also interested in dreams that promise pregnancy. However, they rely more on the opinions of dreaming alone, without taking responsibility for interpreting other people's dreams.
Now you know what dreams are of herbal pregnancy. Often, however, only your own subjective interpretation of the dream. Only you have the ability to decipher the hidden motives of your dreams. So don't focus on the interpretations that are listed in books about dreams. The authors do not take into account the individual characteristics of the area and their life situation. Therefore, you must trust your intuition and follow your understanding of symbolic concepts, especially if your interpretation of your dream is negative.
