Casino Dream Meaning
What does a casino mean in your dream?
A casino is where a decision happens, you make that decision and you either win or loose. I also need to consider Sigmund Freud in psychological text that this could indicate a move of some sort.
In my dream dictionaries it says that to dream of a casino is about your need for luck. I don’t really agree. To me, seeing a casino is about the gamble in life and that it is likely spiritually you will encounter an opportunity. If we look at a casino, it keeps you betting in a building that's rigged to keep you losing. Turning this around it means that there maybe something that is stacked against you and you are looking at that.
What does it mean to have a dream of a casino?
If you've had a casino dream, it probably had less to do with a desire to win the jackpot and more to do with something happening in real life. A casino is always a stand-in for risk, the kind you've gone into half-closed your eyes, not fully thought through, not fully appreciated. It's risk you may be tricking yourself into thinking "excitement."
What does it mean to dream of going to a casino with friends?
Dreaming that you are at a casino with friends is rarely (never, really) a sign that your friends will become more important. It is a reflection of watching people you trust make big decisions. You have either joined in, or perhaps watched them get swept away by a gambling and feel the relief and guilt that no one but yourself was there when they actually lost. To see a risky move from someone (like putting all bets in) can just be your mind waiting for something in life to happen.
What does casino dreams mean about winning?
I rarely find that this dream is a prediction. It is all about your own unconscious mind, it is about being "chosen." Perhaps something in your life feels unfair, that debt that will never be paid off, or your status in the promotion you so deserve, or the relationship which will not change this time. Psychologically, it could also indicate the need for winning something in life.
What do dreams of slot machines mean?
When slot machines appear in dreams there is no human element. I like to think of this as the wheel of fortune in the tarot deck, there is no human input: no dealer, no players at the poker table, nothing but the mathematically designed computer generated screen. The slot machine in a dream to me, means that psychologically it is a game of chance with something in life. It could be chance that you take something or you don’t. I don’t see this dream as being negative, it is more about your mind making a change.
What does it mean to be at a table gambling in a casino?
In casino’s we have no sense of time, I think it's about giving control over an area of your life that you're having a hard time controlling to something external. Not necessarily a bad thing. People sometimes dream about letting go of control, sometimes as a precursor to waking up and actually giving it up. But it makes you wonder what you're giving up to chance. If you are at the table maybe on a roulette wheel this is directly spiritually associated with the wheel of fortune, it is about fate, good or bad. It is a positive card, like something is going to turn in life. If you are at the table with many others gambling in the casino this is connected to teamwork, especially in jobs and working with people.
Conclusion
At a spiritual level, dreaming of money is never really about money. If you dream about winning money gambling, then chances are that your subconscious mind is showing you an aspect of yourself and your own self-worth. It could be because you want to win in something close to you.
