What is Symbolic Dream

Symbolic dream refers to the manifestation of dream meanings through symbolic means in dream content. Most of what we dream about is expressed through symbolic techniques. For example, if we dream of ascending to the heavens, it is symbolic because humans cannot actually ascend to the heavens. In this case, the heavens have symbolic significance, representing masculinity, nobility, and royalty, while the earth symbolizes femininity, motherhood, and fertility, and so on.

In dreams, our real-life goals and aspirations are represented through symbolic means. Such dreams are known as symbolic dreams because these goals and dreams are suppressed deep within a person's heart, unable to be expressed or achieved.
