Ex-Husband, Ex-Lover - Dream Symbols

Here he/she comes again - it's been over for years yet they keep popping up in your dreams! What's up with that, you ask?

Well, this really has a lot to do with a "dream." Whether the relationship was good or bad, this person represents your dream of what you had hoped the relationship to be. Perhaps you ended the relationship and now regret it, or they ended the relationship and you've never quite gotten over it. Your dream likely reflects those feelings, especially if in waking life you have been longing for what once was. If the relationship turned out to be a nightmare, then your ex's cameo could be reminding you not to repeat past mistakes.

It's not uncommon to dream of a former boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife or lover when you're about to enter into a new relationship. This leaves the dreamer confused and sometimes feeling "guilty." Remember that people, events and things in dreams are not always exactly who or what they appear to be - this is why Freud and Jung called them "symbols." The old flame's presence in your dream symbolizes your feelings about relationships in your waking life now. Your dream might be a reminder to evaluate your expectations or a confirming that any warning signs you may have picked up on are worth taking a look at.

Dreams often don't spell the message out for us. They're subconscious and the Divine's way of making us go within and reflect upon issues we need to deal with and what we've learned from past experiences. So, document your dream, take a look at where you are in relation to the issue and check back with your journal in a few weeks or months to review so that you can move on to the next chapter with a fresh perspective.

Have a great week, and may all the good dreams come true!
