The cave is one of the most mysterious and enigmatic symbols. In ancient times it served as a dwelling for primitive people. Various rituals and initiations, etc. were performed in it. Turkic legends tell that it was from the cave that the “first man” emerged, and the Celts consider caves to be a portal to another world.
In Hinduism, the cave represents the “center, the heart,” and in Eastern Chinese philosophy, the feminine energy of yin. Modern psychology compares the cave with spiritual rebirth, as well as with the mother's womb. It is perceived as a symbol of psychic transformation or the mysterious process of alchemy. In analytical psychology, the cave is the mystery and inaccessibility of the unconscious.
Dreams in the context of which the cave appeared are very important and can tell the dreamer a lot of useful things about the present and future situation. Therefore, it is worth paying attention to them. When interpreting a dream, it is important to take into account every small detail.
Cave
Seeing secret holes in the mountains or in the ground in your night dreams is not the best omen. Most dream books agree that the image of a cave is memories that rise from the depths of the subconscious, and a person experiences and rethinks them again. How to understand the image of a cave? The dream book says that you need to remember what you did in the cave and what feelings you experienced. If you felt good and comfortable, it means life will get better and you can find peace. If you were cold and unpleasant, then in the near future you will have to go through not the best moments. In order to successfully overcome the obstacles that stand in the way, the dreamer must apply the experience of past years. A person who will learn from mistakes made will not fall into the same rake again.
What did you dream about? Sitting in a cave with a friend and dreaming at night is better than being alone. Such a dream shows the dreamer that a good friend is now in a difficult situation. You must help the girl find the true path and make sure that she does not deviate from it.
The magical world of caves
The world of caves can easily be called one of the last “white spots” on Earth.
Caves have a strange charm: they attract and frighten at the same time. In ancient times, they were considered the gateway to a dark underground world with monsters and the afterlife, and in prehistoric times they served as housing and shelters for people. Most of the interesting underground sites are accessible only to speleologists and other specialists, but many of them have long been turned into magnificent tourist attractions. From all their diversity, it is very difficult to choose at least a couple of dozen of the most interesting objects, since there are at least a hundred caves scattered throughout the world, each of which is beautiful, mysterious and unique in its own way. Marble cave in Crimea
The plateau of the Crimean mountain Chatyr-Dag is literally strewn with wells, mines and caves. The most famous place here is the Marble Cave. At the very beginning, on the descent into the cave, visitors are presented with a huge pipe-shaped room, about twenty meters long. Stalactites and stalagmites hang from cracks in the vault, captivating your attention. At the same time, almost no one pays attention to the fact that this tunnel had perfectly smooth walls, going into the depths of the mountain with a slope towards the sea. The walls of the tunnel are perfectly preserved: they do not show any traces of erosion from flowing waters, and there are no karst caverns resulting from the dissolution of limestone.
It turns out that this is part of a tunnel leading to nowhere. However, given that the Black Sea depression itself was created about thirty million years ago, at the very junction of the Eocene and Oligocene eras, as a result of the fall of a giant asteroid, which cut and destroyed the ridge of the Crimean mountain range, it can be assumed that this Marble Cave is one of the fragments ancient tunnel, while its main part remained in the destroyed mountain range.
This cave was discovered quite recently, in 1980, by a group of Crimean speleologists. The length of the explored passages alone is 2050 meters. According to the most famous speleologists, the Marble Cave is one of the five most beautiful equipped caves on the planet.
Jeita Caves, Lebanon
People knew about Jeita (it is located near Beirut) for a very long time, but they were never particularly interested in it until it was discovered by the American missionary William Thomson in 1836. Then, 40 years later, Jeita was studied by Beirut plumbers: they walked almost a kilometer along the river and realized that there were many caves here (today it is known that their total length is 9 km). So Jeita became one of the main attractions of Lebanon.
The caves are divided into two levels. In the lower part a river flows (it gives rise to the Nahr Al-Kalb River, which waters the whole of Beirut) with rapids and waterfalls. Tourists here are taken on boats under low arches, from which thousands of illuminated stalactites hang, and on the banks there are swollen “columns” and stone “sculptures”. A 120-meter tunnel leads to the upper galleries with the White and Red grottoes.
Marble caves in Chile Chico, Chile.
This natural wonder, a labyrinth of turquoise-colored caves, is located on the Chile-Argentina border, in the high-mountain lake Lago General Carrera, located in the Andes. In fact, the walls of the amazing labyrinth, washed in the rocks of the peninsula that challenged the waters of Lago General Carrera, are not made of marble at all - the rocks of the peninsula are calcareous.
However, the color scheme of the vaults of deep and through grottoes is dominated by white and bluish shades, which look very impressive against the background of turquoise water.
Postojnska Jama Cave, Slovenia
Postojnska Jama is the largest cave in all of Slovenia and one of the largest in Europe in general. Here the underground galleries are spread over 20 kilometers. Nature created such beauty in the depths of the limestone plateau of Krasse with the help of the Pivka river. However, despite its name, the cave never acted as an inn. But already in the 19th century it was landscaped specifically for visiting tourists. Electricity and the world's first cave railway appeared here.
The train travels 7 kilometers past unusual stalactites and stalagmites; the further journey must be made on foot. The largest hall in the cave is called the Concert Hall; it is not surprising that an entire conference of speleologists was once held here.
Local reservoirs are also interesting, because there are even living creatures - proteas. They have no eyes and look like a cross between an albino lizard and a worm. Proteas are distant relatives of salamanders.
Kungur Ice Cave, Russia
The pearl of the Urals, a true national treasure, is the Kungur Ice Cave - the seventh longest gypsum cave in the world and one of the first in beauty. The magic of underground lakes and gigantic grottoes, the frozen poetry of ice and stone transport tourists to the fantastic world of an ancient cave.
The Kungur Ice Cave is one of the unique natural monuments. It is located on the right bank of the Sylva River in Ice Mountain on the northeastern outskirts of the city of Kungur. According to scientists, the age of the cave is 10–12 thousand years. It was formed on the site of the Great Perm Sea.
This is the oldest excursion cave in Russia. Excursions around it were held in the middle of the 19th century. The year 1914 is considered to be the beginning of professional excursion and tourism activities based on the Ice Cave.
Today, the Kungur Ice Cave, according to experts, is considered the only gypsum cave in the world with extensive glaciation. The cave has 70 underwater lakes of different sizes.
Mammoth Cave in Kentucky, USA.
Mammoth Cave National Park is located in central Kentucky in the United States. Mammoth Cave is 500 km of underground tunnels. These are the longest cave systems known to the world. Numerous speleological expeditions have established that Mammoth Cave is connected to a number of nearby small caves. And the 1972 expedition discovered that from Mammoth Cave there is a passage to the Flint Ridge cave system and the true length of all the tunnels has not yet been established. The cave has three underground lakes, rivers with eight underground waterfalls. One of the huge halls reaches a length of 163 m. The cave was discovered in 1809 and received this name because of its enormous size.
Crow Cave, Abkhazia
And the deepest cave in the world is located in Abkhazia, in the Arabica mountain range. The entrance to it is located at an altitude of about 2250 meters above sea level, in the Orto-Balagan tract.
The Krubera-Voronya cave was discovered and first explored to a depth of 95 meters by Georgian speleologists in 1960. It was then that it received its first name: Krubera Cave, in honor of the father of Russian karst studies A.A. Krubera. The cave was explored for the second time by Krasnoyarsk speleologists to a depth of 210 meters already in 1968. They called it the Siberian Cave. In 1982-1987, the cave was remembered again. This time it was explored by Kyiv speleologists to a depth of 340 meters. A third name appeared: Voronya Cave.
At the beginning of the 21st century, the Ukrainian Speleological Association began exploring the cave with the participation of Moscow speleologists. As of 2012, the depth of the explored part of the cave is 2191 meters.
Before this, the Austrian cave “Lamprechtsofen”, 1632 m deep, was considered the deepest. At a depth of 1710 m, the Voronya (Krubera) cave has a vast hall with a lake. This hall was named “The Hall of Soviet Speleologists.” The discoverers say that the record of this cave is the merit of all Soviet speleologists.
Fingal's Cave, Scotland
Fingal's Cave, or as it is also called the “cave of melodies,” is located on the island of Staffa, part of the inner Hebrides of Scotland.
Rapidly rising upward, the volcanic lava slowly cooled, forming incredible hexagonal columns... The sea was agitated below... And the best architect in the world - Nature - rubbed his hands with satisfaction. The new masterpiece was a great success! To be his island of Staffa. But the sea did not calm down: sometimes gently stroking, sometimes fiercely attacking the basalt rocks, it still gained the right to be considered a co-author of the masterpiece, eventually washing out in the rock an amazing and unique cave - Fingal's Cave.
The length of Fingal's Cave is about 113 meters, and the width at the entrance is 16.5 meters. It is impossible to get into the cave by boat - the entrance at the bottom is too narrow. So the only way in is a narrow path passing above the water itself.
Fingal's Cave looks more like a basalt temple submerged by the sea. Its walls are slender rows of dark gray columns, the height of which reaches 20 meters.
But not only the wonderful “architecture” of the cave is its main feature. The sounds of the surf, reflected from the walls and domed vault of the cave, form magical melodies in calm weather and a menacing noise heard far out to sea - in storms and during high tides.
Han Son Doong Cave. Vietnam.
Hang Son Dung Cave (Mountain River Cave) is located in Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park and was discovered in April 2009 by British speleologists. The cave system turned out to be huge. British researchers suggest that this cave is the largest in volume in the world!
In the underground hall of the Hang Son Dung cave there is enough space even for a 40-story skyscraper. The largest hall of the cave has a total length of more than 5000 meters. The total length of the cave is 9000 meters. The width of the halls and corridors is 100 meters, and the height reaches 200 meters.
Hang Son Dong Cave - a jungle cave! In the vaults of the cave there are gaps through which light penetrates, and as a result of this, plants grow in the cave - the limestone ledges are covered with a carpet of delicate greenery. Following the plants, not only insects and snakes, but even monkeys and birds descend into the cave. The Rao Tuong River has created tunnels in solid rock over many centuries. During the dry months the river becomes a small stream, but during the rainy season the underground river becomes full again, so that in some places it comes to the surface of the earth.
Underwater caves of Yucatan, Mexico
The largest underwater cave system on the planet, commonly known as the Great Cave, is located in the northern part of the Mexican Yucatan Peninsula, where the ruins of cities of the ancient Mayan civilization lie. Since 1987, special research has been conducted there, headed by M. Madden and R. Unicker. They already confirm the uniqueness of this underground natural reservoir.
Through the efforts of cave divers, over 550 km of underwater and underground passages and hundreds of different cave systems have been explored, but no one knows the full extent of all the caves and what other secrets they keep.
Incredibly beautiful and large caves have formed on the Yucatan Peninsula, and the entire peninsula practically consists of a variety of grottoes and underground caves. There are no rivers in this area, however, there is a lot of fresh water here. All the water is underground in these cenotes. In the Mayan language, cenote sounded like “tsonot” - something deep.
Cenotes were sacred to the Mayans, and water was taken from sacred cenotes only during religious ceremonies. The Mayans called them “the gateway to the kingdom of the dead” and considered their waters sacred.
The map shows the location of the cenotes in the northwestern part of Yucatan. It can be seen that some of them are lined up in the form of a clearly defined arc - these wells are located along tectonic faults along the perimeter of the ancient Chicxulub meteorite crater - from the same meteorite, the fall of which the authors of popular articles and films usually declare to be the cause of the extinction of dinosaurs. The cave system communicates with the waters of the Caribbean Sea, and in many of them there is a layer of sea water under a layer of fresh water at a depth of 30-60 m.
It is an axiom: stalactites and stalagmites do not form in underwater caves. But here they are literally at every step. It was once dry here, once people lived here. Radiocarbon dating of soot from the ceiling of the half-submerged hall gave an approximate age of 8,100 years. The coals of a fire at the bottom of a nearby cave can no longer be analyzed, but in a dump of gnawed bones the remains of the prehistoric elephant Gomphotherium, which became extinct 10,000 years ago, were found. Human remains recovered in 2010 and fragments of a cave bear skeleton found nearby are of the same age.
Diving enthusiasts come here from all over the world because of the amazing underwater scenery and crystal clear water. Here you can swim past thousands of huge stalagmites and stalactites that were formed more than 65 million years ago. Sunlight, penetrating through various cracks, makes this place fabulously beautiful and unusual.
It must be fun to travel under the roots of a tropical forest in water so clear that it is indistinguishable from air. At the junction of salty ocean water with fresh water, you can see an unusual optical phenomenon - a halocline, in which a ghostly boundary of layers is felt, and any movement that mixes the water creates an incredible iridescent cloud. The water temperature in almost all cenotes is even and constant - 24-25 °C.
Reed Flute Cave, China
Reed Flute Cave is the largest and most picturesque of the karst caves in the Chinese tourist city of Guilin. Once upon a time there was an ocean in this place. Natural disasters forced the water to leave, raising fantastic mountains with strange gorges, crevices, grottoes and caves to the surface.
Reed Flute Cave, part of a system of caves and tunnels with many fragile stalactites and stalagmites, is one of the most famous caves. This karst cave goes 240 meters deep. The cave is given a very apt name: hundreds of small stalactites hang from the roof, many of which resemble thin pipes.
But the cave got its name due to the thickets of bamboo covering the surrounding area of the hill. The locals used bamboo from this place to make a musical instrument - a flute. The Flute Cave is huge, it won’t be difficult to get lost here.
Illuminated stalactites form pictures, according to Chinese tradition, poetically named in the spirit of 'the crystal palace of the dragon king'. Thanks to the unique illumination and reflection in the underground lake, one gets the impression of frozen actions, which have poetic names according to Chinese tradition: “Crystal Palace”, “Dragon Tower”, “Pine on the Snow”, “Dawn in the Lion Grove”, “Red Threshold” and so on. Inside the cave is divided into several fabulous rooms. One of them has a lake, one of the most beautiful underground lakes in the world.
Cuevas del Drac (Mallorca, Spain)
The name of the caves comes from an ancient legend, according to which the entrance to them was guarded by a dragon. According to medieval legend, the Dragon Caves were guarded by a fire-breathing monster. The residents of Mallorca told tales about a dragon who guarded the countless treasures of the caves. The Dragon or Drak Caves are a unique work of nature created over the centuries. Their length is about 2400 meters. The depth of the caves at the lowest point reaches 25 meters. This is one of the longest chains of caves on the island and they were fully explored only at the end of the 19th century.
Currently, a tourist route of about 1 km is open to the public. Among the underground halls, the cave of Louis Salvador and the observation deck of the Cyclops stand out. A distinctive feature of the Drak caves are six underground lakes. The largest of these is Lake Martel, which is the world's largest underground lake. Its length is 177 meters, width 40. It is named after the French speleologist Martel, who first discovered the Dragon Caves in 1896. The caves are also unique for their lighting equipment.
The water in the lake is so clean and transparent that the smallest pebbles located at the bottom of the lake are clearly visible. Lake Martel has an amphitheater with excellent acoustics and an auditorium. Chamber concerts are held there for tourists. To the sounds of classical music, boats, illuminated by candles, with musicians float out of the darkness.
Cave of Swallows, Mexico
In the tropics of central Mexico there is another amazing attraction - a huge hole 330-375 meters deep. It looks like a cave, expanding towards the base. Due to the fact that this mysterious place is inhabited by birds, it is nicknamed the Cave of Swallows.
It is known that birds love quiet places to breed their offspring, where they return every evening to spend the night. For the birds of the Mexican Cave, everything was exactly like this, but only until this place was discovered by base jumpers and cavers.
Cave of SwallowsThe cave attracts them with its unusual structure. From above it looks like a black hole in the mountain with a diameter of more than 50 meters. If you go down, at the beginning there will be only a narrow vertical passage, and then it will expand to 130-160 meters. Such a structure makes it very difficult to descend into the cave, not to mention going up. However, this only inspires and invigorates the athletes.
The cave tempts extreme sports enthusiasts from all over the world to try their hand at it. But you will need not only excellent physical shape, but also technical training. The ascent to the top using already fixed ropes takes about an hour and a half.
However, when such events began to gain momentum, Mexican biologists became concerned about the safety of the cave, birds and natural balance due to the careless actions of people. Therefore, nowadays tourists visit the cave only when the birds fly away from it - about 12 - 16 hours.
Jumping into the Cave of Swallows requires knowledge and implementation of a lot of nuances. For example, due to the fact that the landing area is very small, it is necessary to open the parachute at a strictly defined time. If you do this earlier, it may get caught on the walls of a narrow passage. Before the parachute opens, the fall time is 6-7 seconds. In terms of depth, this cave takes an honorable 2nd place in Mexico, and 11th place in the world.
Shulgan-Tash Cave (Kapova), Russia
The Shulgan-Tash (Kapova) cave is located on the right bank of the Belaya River, in Bashkiria. The cave stretches for more than two kilometers. The Shulgan River flows inside it. This three-story speleo system, about 3 km long and 165 m high, has been known since ancient times and attracted the attention of scientists back in the 18th century.
The entrance of the cave resembles a giant tunnel going deep into the mountain. The entrance arch is huge and has a width of about 40 m and a height of up to 20 m. To the left, from under this arch, the waters of the Shulgan River flow out in a stormy stream. All together, this creates a truly majestic and unique picture, stunning the imagination of even those who have already seen something similar. To the left of the entrance is Blue Lake, from which the Shulgan River flows. The lake is small - only about three meters in diameter, but its depth is more than 80 meters!
The age of Kapova Cave is about a million years old; people began to explore it at least 14 thousand years ago. Ancient wall paintings (mammoths, rhinoceroses, wild horses, various signs, etc.) made with red ocher dissolved in animal fat were discovered in the cave. Suffice it to say that there are no such natural-historical monuments not only in Russia, but throughout Eastern Europe.
The rock paintings of the Kapova Cave are from 14 to 18 thousand years old, that is, they are almost the same age as the images in the famous caves of Lascaux (France) and Altamira (Spain). This is the Upper Paleolithic period, the so-called era. Solutrean and Magdalenian cultures, the center of which was in the south of Western Europe - therefore the discovery of an equally ancient gallery in the distant Urals, in Soviet (then) Bashkiria became a sensation.
Melissina Cave, Greece
The secluded island of Kefallonia is the largest in the Ionian Sea. There is an appropriate atmosphere here - luxurious landscapes with clean beaches, delicious wine and ancient monasteries. The island is also famous for its caves; Melissana is the most beautiful of them. Only inexorable time and nature made the cave full of holes - after the earthquake, the dome partially collapsed and now sunlight penetrates inside. However, this only embellished the underground decoration.
Now the lake in the cave is illuminated by the sun's rays; visitors can admire the clear water of an amazing blue hue. But you can’t drink it - it’s salty, as it comes from the sea through hidden channels. This place was chosen by the ancient Greek priests long before tourists, who built a sanctuary for the god Pan here. There are a lot of legends around the cave, but is it possible to do without them in Greece?
Crystal Cave, Mexico
In 2000, while drilling the Nike mine in the state of Chihuahua (Mexico) at a depth of 300 meters underground, a crystal cave was found, later called the Nike cave. Inside the cave there are thousands of crystals, the length of which reaches 10 meters. The largest silinite crystal in the cave weighs 55 tons and is 11 meters long. It has been established that it could have reached this size in about 1 million years.
The Nike area lies on an ancient geological fault. The crystals in the cave were formed under the influence of a volcanic focus, which is located under the cave from groundwater flows enriched with minerals, mainly gypsum. The temperature inside the cave reaches 65°C with a constant humidity of 90-99%. In this regard, visiting this cave without special equipment is simply not possible. Crystals brought to the surface from the cave into fresh air begin to become cloudy and then collapse.
Movile Cave, Romania
In fact, this cave does not represent any kind of tourist attraction. There is no legend or myth associated with the Movile Cave. Great and famous people did not visit her. Moreover, it is dark and damp. And it was opened only in 1986. So what is her secret?
In 1986, during geological research before the construction of a power plant near the Romanian city of Mangalia, a closed cave system with peculiar conditions was discovered at a depth of about 18 meters. Fed by underground waters with significant hydrogen sulfide content, the cave, named Movile, had its own atmosphere, poor in oxygen, rich in carbon dioxide and containing significant amounts of methane. Her research began in 1990.
Movile Cave is almost completely flooded with water. This cave was formed approximately five million years ago, and has been sealed all this time. Those. There was practically no air flowing there. As a result, a truly unique microclimate (ecosystem) was formed in this cave.
When scientists opened and penetrated inside the cave, they discovered more than thirty new, previously unknown species of living beings. These creatures (mainly springtails, scorpions, worms and leeches) lived perfectly well in this cave in complete darkness for over five million years. A distinctive feature of all new living creatures discovered in the cave is that, firstly, they had color features (discoloration), because they lived in complete darkness. The main difference was that all species had well-developed symbiosis. In other words, every living creature, in the process of its existence, helps another to exist and develop.
The human presence in this place itself seriously threatens the life of the ecosystem: the breathing process of a speleologist alone can cause an imbalance in the gas composition of the atmosphere of the grottoes. Therefore, access to the cave is allowed only for research purposes with the permission of the custodians. Visits are limited to two hours, twice a month, in groups of no more than three people wearing clean overalls and shoes... or better yet, even without them.
Sarawak Hall on the island of Borneo, Malaysia
The dimensions of this cave are approximately 600x450 m and the height is about 100 meters. This is approximately the area of 16 football fields. This is approximately the height of a 40-story building. Considering that this volume of space is not in the open air, but underground, the size is amazing. Considering that this underground space is filled with stalactites and stalagmites, illuminated by colored lanterns, and jets of water flying down from a hundred-meter ceiling, the spectacle is amazing. Considering that the cave is inhabited by approximately three million bats, being inside is exhilarating.
Above the ceiling of the cave hall in the thickness of the earth there is a huge underground lake. There is still a thick layer of earth above the lake. And above, on the surface of the earth layer, a tropical rain forest grows already in the open air. It turns out to be a kind of “sandwich”. This “sandwich” is located in the thickness of the mountain, because... Mulu jungle grows on the slopes of the mountains. Since the forest is tropical and rain, tropical showers and light rains occur very often. Water falling from the sky waters the jungle, seeps through a thick layer of earth and fills a huge underground lake. Then, under the influence of gravity, the water again begins to seep down through the bottom of the lake, reaches the ceiling of the Sarawak Cave Hall and flies down from the hundred-meter ceiling in thin streams of a waterfall in the light of colored lanterns. There is a tiny chance that someday the water of an underground lake will wash away and break through the vaults of the Sarawak Hall like a dam. Then a multi-ton mass of water will fall down from a height of 40 floors, sweeping away everything in its path.
The cave amazes with its stone multicolor. The earth's rock is painted in many colors, and is also illuminated by colored lanterns.
Waitomo Cave, New Zealand
This cave also claims to be the most beautiful cave. The highlight of the cave is the local fireflies, or rather their larvae, which glow in the dark. The cave consists of three levels, which are connected by a shaft. Tourists moving along the underground river on a boat admire the most beautiful sight, reminiscent of a scattering of stars in the night sky.
In this case, you need to maintain silence; the larvae may go out when they hear the noise. The cave has been known for a very long time; tourists began to be taken to it back in 1889.
Lovers' Dream
Did you and your significant other get lost in a cave in a dream? The dream book interprets this dream as a bad omen. In the near future you will have misunderstandings in your relationship. Both you and your partner will begin to pull the blanket over yourself, and no one will want to give in. The subconscious mind warns that if you cannot slow down and insist on your way, the relationship will soon deteriorate. So learn to pacify your selfishness and from time to time give up your desires for the benefit of your partner. You need to perceive such sacrifices as an investment in your future. Love is never cloudless. But if you don’t try to understand your soulmate, you will soon notice that your loved one is gradually losing interest in you. A person who does not want to lose his beloved must make every effort to please the chosen one from time to time. In addition to taming selfishness, one should not forget about romance. Walking under the moonlight, going to the cinema and restaurants can significantly improve and enliven your relationship. The more time loving people spend together, the better.
Dream prediction Cave
A dream about a cave opening before you in the mysterious moonlight means that you will have many difficulties and your successes will be hindered by the machinations of your enemies. If you were in a cave, changes are ahead. Perhaps you will move away from people dear to you. A young woman who saw herself in a dream sitting in a cave alone with her lover may fall in love with a dishonest person and lose real friends. If in a dream you were hiding in a cave, then in real life you are trying to isolate yourself from the sexual side life by hook or by crook. And all because you are afraid of repeating a mistake that you made in the distant past. It is in vain that you deprive yourself of pleasure - your current partner will not cause you suffering.
Alone in a cave
What were you doing in your dream? Walked alone in a cave? The dream book interprets such night dreams as loneliness in reality. A person cannot find like-minded people and therefore suffers. The person worries that no one loves or respects her. Similar attacks of self-flagellation occur in people suffering from low self-esteem. If you cannot understand that you are a unique person who can handle anything, then you will constantly lose strength. The laziness and apathy that will haunt you will not allow you to live a normal life. Has your subconscious shown you a cave? Think about what mistakes you have made and what you cannot forgive yourself for. Remember that it is impossible to change something in the past. So don't reproach yourself for past sins. If you want to improve your life, then live in the present. Draw conclusions from your mistakes and perceive mistakes as useful life experiences.
Beast in the Cave
How does Loff's dream book interpret a cave? If you went into a cozy place where an animal was sleeping, it means that betrayal awaits you in reality. While the traitor is sleeping, this person can wake up at any moment. Think about who in your circle you don't trust. Find a person who seems suspicious to you and try to break off relations with her. Otherwise, the person will be able to ruin not only your reputation, but also your life. Do not listen to the advice given by a suspicious person, and also try to limit the person’s influence on your friends.
If a bear, wolf or fox did not sleep in a cave, then in reality a person should expect betrayal. Your significant other has cooled off lately, and it will be difficult to rekindle her feelings. A person will decide to cheat out of boredom and monotony. If you care about a loved one, then do not let him go. As long as the person hasn’t messed things up, he can be brought to his senses. Talk to your lover and find out how he would like to modernize your relationship. You can offer your ideas to improve your life together. By coming to a common opinion, you can adjust your life a little and make it happier.
No exit
Did you dream of a cave from which there is no exit? Such a sign of the subconscious should be interpreted as an image of hopelessness. A person who cannot get out of the stone labyrinth has lost his life guidelines and now does not know where to go. How can you improve your life? A person should think about what went wrong and what happened to his goals. If now old desires have become irrelevant, then it is necessary to come up with new ideas for implementation. You need to start with small changes and gradually implement them.
If a person gets lost in a cave, but is not confused, but has arranged his new home well and feels great in it, it means that in reality the person has a very narrow circle of friends. The dreamer may be happy with this, but the subconscious mind rebels against this state of affairs. You should make new interesting acquaintances and generally diversify your existence. The dull everyday life that a person spends at work and at home can very quickly lead to depression, from which it will be difficult to find a way out.
What to watch out for
Entering a dark and poorly lit tunnel means troubles in your personal life. If a train is rushing towards you, blinding you with its headlights, it means that you will soon have to change your type of activity. The dreamer must open up to everything new and unexperienced, since comfort not only relaxes, but also kills.
If the underground tunnel begins to crumble, then, most likely, enemies will begin to implement their insidious plans. You need to become extremely careful in your actions and statements to prevent the problem from growing.
Why do you dream of a cave from which it is impossible to find a way out? Most likely, the dreamer is afraid of public censure for his actions. He will begin to withdraw into himself if society rejects him. To prevent such a problem, you need to learn how to build relationships with people, even if it seems like a difficult task. The sooner the dreamer starts doing this, the faster the desired result will be achieved. There should be harmony in the heart, and not fear tearing into small pieces. Many dream interpreters insist that personality must constantly develop, and this can only be achieved by overcoming oneself.
Bad dream
The cave in Vanga’s dream book is associated with the dreamer’s state of mind. If a person saw a cave that frightened her, then she should be afraid of troubles that may happen in life. Moreover, the dreamer will be the cause of all his troubles. His bad character traits, as well as non-acceptance of certain situations, will greatly ruin his life. To avoid this, the person who dreamed of the cave must understand himself. A person should think about what makes her happy in this life and what annoys her.

This situation needs to be changed urgently.

Spring in a cave
What does Loff's dream book say? The cave, according to this interpreter, means life, which will soon be in full swing.

Treasure in a cave

A lady should not indulge her gentleman and satisfy any of his desires at the first request. A girl must understand that only whims and extravagant behavior will help a lady attract a man to her. Guys don't like girls who are completely at their disposal. Men are impressed by “snow queens” whose love they have to constantly seek.
