Uncover Hidden Dream Meanings

A Joshua tree is a hearty desert tree that indicates perseverance, resourcefulness, and taking care of yourself.

They are generally good omens for a dream but also call attention to yourself and resting when you are over extending yourself. Many people don’t know it but Joshua Trees have the same healing and calming qualities as St. John’s Wart. The trees are sturdy desert natives that thrive on harsh desert heat and lack of water. Having a dream about a Joshua Tree is a positive omen indicating that you are prepared for the challenges that are heading your way and that you are in a place in your life positioned to thrive.

In this dream you may have

  • Cut down a Joshua tree.

  • Meditated and seen a Joshua tree.

Positive changes are afoot if

Detailed dream meaning

Cutting down a Joshua tree can be a good sign or a bad sign. Joshua trees have a reserve of water and can be a life giving source of nutrition if you are trapped or lost in the desert. Using the tree for sustenance is a positive thing regarding the dream and indicates that you will do what it takes to survive. This can also be an omen that you need to be resourceful and creative in your life right now. Cutting down a Joshua tree for a reason unknown or without a purpose is indicate of wasteful habits that are going to set you back regarding getting your goals.

Being in the desert has its own meaning and can be interpreted as the landscape of your life. When you are having many dreams or reoccurring dreams of Joshua trees this can be an indication of being or feeling desolate in your own life. Consider the meaning of a desert in your dream as well or the other surrounding. Sometimes the Joshua tree will be in a weird place – such as in a mountain forest or by an ocean. This is a warning dream that your life is about to take a change into a new direction and you need to be prepared for a dry spell ahead.

The helpful nature of the Joshua tree that provides food and shade from the scorching heat is also a parallel in your waking world as well. Consider your base needs in your waking world when you see the tree in a dream and if your needs are being met in your current situation. Usually this dream will reflect a relationship or the interactions between another in your life.

Meditating or reflecting on a Joshua Tree is a sign of taking care of yourself and is a positive omen for bringing peace into your life. The presence of the tree is your psyche’s message of letting you know that a difficult situation will pass and you will be alright. This is a positive sign for looking ahead to the future.

This dream is in association with the following scenarios in your life

  • Not having your needs met.
  • Needing to be saved or rescued.
  • Having a dry spell in your life.
  • Being in a good place in your life – being happy.
