158 dream interpretations
When people appear in your dreams, they rarely represent themselves literally. Instead, they often symbolize aspects of your own personality, unresolved feelings, or qualities you associate with that person.
Dreaming about your mother may reflect nurturing instincts or dependency. An ex-partner appearing in dreams doesn't necessarily mean you miss them — they often represent a past version of yourself. Strangers in dreams frequently embody unknown or unexplored parts of your psyche.
Consider your relationship with the person and how you felt in the dream. The emotional context reveals more than the person's identity.
