Uncover Hidden Dream Meanings

Aunts in dreams can occur in many ways. So, we know that an aunt is a sister of your mother or father or your uncle's wife.

In my twenty years of study dreams, I can conclude that seeing an Aunt is connected to ether how you feel about the relationship or your anxiety in life. Now, to see your Aunt featured in your dream suggests that you may be apprehensive in life. The details around why your aunt appeared in a dream are important. Dreams about relatives are often connected to family matters of nurturing. You have keen a versatile mind and you are highly intuitive if you dream that you are the Aunt in the dream state. Aunts are normally disciplinarians in nature and this dream can be a highly emotional dependence upon the details. A dream where you see an aunt denotes family ties, value, and connection. It might represent how you view your personality.

If you are a teenager and you happen to see an Aunt in your dream ancient dream dictionaries denote that you will be punished for disobedience. If the aunt in your dream appears smiling it can suggest that, after being reprimanded, you will receive some good news which will make you happy. An aunt is symbolic of protectiveness, wisdom that comes with age, and trustworthiness. Aunts tend to be very protective of their nieces and nephews and they can educate and instill discipline. A dream where an Aunt is seen denotes that, you will meet people in your life who will have a positive impact. This can refer to new friendships that you find in your life’s journey. If your Aunt is smiling and showing love and affection to you then this is symbolic in that, you might be lucky to get a job through a person whom you know very well.

Detailed dream interpretation:

When you have a dream whereby you see that you have been visited by your aunt in your home (in the dream state) it can imply that you might be receiving an unknown visitor in your house who will cause friction. The person who will come in your waking life will make life difficult for you and other family members. It is a dream which is signaling an alarm that, you should be skeptical in accepting or welcoming visitors into your home that you don’t know.

When your aunt gives birth in your dream it denotes that there are changes which are about to happen in life in relation to your job or school. Depending on the number of children that you see your aunt giving birth to this is the number of changes which will happen in your waking life. Be ready for a change in your job whereby you might be moved to a new location, or be given a promotion. If you are in school, your parents may just be planning to relocate and thus, a need for a change of school. Seeing your aunt who died in your dream denotes that, you are about to learn secrets of someone you have been close to for a long time. Secrets which will change the way you view the person and which will make you re-evaluate the relationship. If it is a marriage, you might come to learn more about your spouse. Be ready for the shocking revelation.

Seeing yourself worried about your aunt in your dream denotes that, there is a part of your family heritage which you are not happy with. When you see an aunt die in your dream, it implies that there is a part of your culture or family value that you need to let go of. You have come to realize that, it doesn't add value to your life; it is burdening you for no good reason and this is why you are better focusing on yourself for a while. An Aunt featuring a dream who is not your aunt in real life indicates a good balance between the practical skills required in a career.  It can traditionally signify that you may be swept off your feet with a given situation. If in your dream, you couldn't find your aunt, it implies that there has been some conflict in your family. If you see your Aunt enjoying a birthday in your dream, it suggests that you will have to give up a job or person whom you value. If you see yourself unhappy during the birthday celebration it might be that you will be unhappy with a decision you make in waking life.

Experiencing incest with your aunt in the dream can be quite disturbing in nature. From a symbolic viewpoint, this dream suggests that you shouldn't take a passive approach to problems. In difficult times make sure that you keep focused. Having sex with your Aunt in the dream state Can be rather concerning. This is a symbolic dream meaning that you want to get closer to your family. It doesn't necessarily mean that you have passions for your aunt. If you have a strong sexual passion for your Aunt during the dream it can indicate that you are starved of sex at the moment.

What does it mean to dream of talking to your deceased aunt?

Dreaming of talking to a dead aunt can symbolize that you need advice from somebody. A dead aunt who speaks to you represents your inner emotions and fears in life. Consequently this is a positive dream in that your dead aunt could be giving you some advice on how to cope with certain avenues of your life. In bereavement, we grieve in different ways. If you are particularly attached to your aunt then it could just be a delayed grief process. Dreaming is obviously an experience that we all have every night. Bereavement provides from a psychological point of view experiences that may result in dream content. The loss of a loved one is a huge burden and it is quite common to dream of talking to your deceased aunt in the dream as part of the grief process.

What does it mean to dream of an aunt who passed away?

To dream of an aunt who’s already dead reflects your hidden fear of the possible outcome from something you’ve mistaken in the past. If you have encountered bad luck recently then in old dream lore seeing an aunt can suggest that this is about to change for the better. Thank goodness! I hear you say. In voodoo dreaming of a deceased aunt indicates that the curse will break and you will meet happiness again. I know that sounds a bit corny. If you have had little progress in your life recently then dreaming of the aunt can imply great things are coming your way. Elements of your life may start moving for you, slowly but surely. We sometimes encounter “roadblocks” in life and dreaming of an aunt who has died can represent that the delay will be lifted. Your dream reflects your either high or low opinion of her. If you appreciated your aunt like a mother this dream can indicate the loss you feel inside.

What does it mean if your aunt died in a dream?

If you dreamed that your living aunt died then I am sorry. That could be a rather traumatic dream, especially if you are close to her. Now, having such a dream suggests that you will learn something important about someone close to you. Maybe the friend you think is honest could be harboring some hidden secret that may risk or put an end to your friendship. Or your partner hides something that he does not want you to know, resulting in affecting your relationship in a negative way. To dream of a family member dying such as your aunt represents an aspect of yourself that you wish to remove. I will say this, maybe you are going through a transformation and the old “you” is dying. However, if you dreamed your aunt died when she’s already passed on, it means that you’re either traumatized by her death and miss her. Or you’re going through a stressful period. Yes, bereavement can still occur years later and at times we just think about our loved ones and they can appear in our dreams.

What does it mean to see your aunt in your dream?

Just to see your aunt featuring in dreams denotes the strong connection you have with her or your family. It can suggest that your family is most valuable to you and they be replaced by anyone or anything else. Your aunt represents an aspect of your personality that you either want to change or improve. At times, some people have contacted me when they dream of their aunt as a substitute mother. This means your dream is trying to remind you to look for alternative solutions to the problems you’re facing. Instead of stressing over things try to focus on solving problems in your life.

Your aunt in your dream also remind you to be an intuitive person, I say this because you should try to think about your intuition and how your “inner voice” could make some positive choices in life. On the other side, your dream can be interpreted in another way where you can learn about what your subconscious is trying to tell you. For example, your aunt in your dream could represent your deepest emotions that you hide so well. Here are some questions from dream lore in relation to the “aunt” featured in your dream: Why are you ignoring your past? Are you afraid that your emotions will overwhelm you? If so, it’s time you accept your past and allow yourself to mourn over the things you’ve lost.

The aunt represents your expectations of life and the transitional period you’re going through. If you are facing some changes in both professional and personal life then this dream is common. Spiritually speaking, this dream could also indicate that your daily mood is easily affected by your family. I hope this gives you some insight into your dream.

What does it mean to kill your aunt in a dream?

Sometimes when we dream the violence could signify something that we feel in everyday life. In fact, in a sleep laboratory in Germany, they carried out some research into “killing” dreams and discovered that 35% of their subjects (who were students) dreamed of killing somebody at least once in their lifetime. It is quite a common dream but it can suggest that we may be feelings and emotions in life. It's a great way to understand how you're feeling inside. Now I have mentioned how common killing someone in a dream is this leads to the question. What about from a spiritual perspective? Killing your aunt can symbolize that you may need to plan something right to the last minute detail. And while planning is a great thing it could also indicate that you're going to follow your heart instead of one's mind. This is a dream interpretation of killing your aunt from an older dream book in my dusty collection. I will say that dreaming of killing your aunt can be somewhat a transition of the relationship. It is never nice seeing anybody killed - especially a family member. Remember it is just a dream and could just be a dream of anxiety.

What does it mean to dream of your aunt chasing you?

Spiritually speaking anybody chasing you in a dream can signify that you are trying to hide or run away with your emotions moment. Interestingly this dream can signify that you may be having some problems with the family. To dream of being chased by your aunt can be unusual and somewhat bizarre. We are in fact during a dream are in a safe place. It's sometimes difficult to understand and solve these kinds of dreams. Being chased by your aunt and uncle in a dream can suggest that you're trying to avoid either a person or matters of your heart. To dream of trying to get away from your aunt or hiding from her can indicate that you are trying to escape from mental illness in your family. That might seem far-fetched, but that is taken from Sigmund Freud theory of psychological analysis of dream. He believed that being chased suggests that we are trying to process sensory information in the dream state. There are been many studies into the reasons why we are chased in a dream and generally, it is because we are trying to escape from reality.

What does it mean to dream of your aunt attacking you?

To dream of your aunt attacking you in a dream is quite interesting. If you are fighting her or you believe that she is going to harm you can suggest (according to my old dream books from the 1930s) that your subconscious mind is worrying about something in life. If you were attacked by other family members including your aunt then it can suggest you feel like the black sheep of the family. The interesting thing about this dream is it that it will focus your fears. In my opinion, it means that something is in a finish or concluded in your family unit. I would say that in the research that I carried out of your dream (if she is living and not deceased) then there is something she wants to communicate. We all energetically have chords that connect with people energetically, whether there is family alternatively friends. Often in dreams, we can pick up sensations on what these people are feeling. I hope this helps.

In this dream, you may have:

  • Visited your Aunt = luck will be yours!
