People frequent ask me but I am unable to help as this is not something that I am familiar with. In fact dreams interpretation is a separate skill by itself.
I read a book recently on Chinese Medicine and there is a part on how dreams were used in Chinese medical diagnosis. This is from a section in the Yellow Emperor's Medicine Classic called the Miraculous Pivot. I find it extremely interesting and I would like to share some of their analysis with you.
The classic says that fearful dream is a result of lack of qi in the heart and gallbladder. It can also be due to a prolonged illness or excessive anxiety.
Angry dream is due to stagnation of qi in the liver and gallbladder or hardening of the liver. It can also be due to the presence of gallstones. On the other hand, happy dream is due to the smooth flow of qi and indicate quick recovery even if you should fall sick.
Sad dream is due to deficiency of qi in the heart and lung, deficiency of yin in the liver for example with chronic liver disease and tuberculosis. Melancholic dream is due to imbalance in the liver and spleen.
What if you dream of continously striving for something? This is due to reverse flow of qi in the liver and gallbladder and increasing yang in the liver for example with hypertension and poor food digestion.
Floating and falling in dreams are amongst the most common type of dreams. Floating dream is due to excess in the upper part of the body but deficiency in the lower parts like deficiency of the kidneys, excess phlegm or coronary heart disease. On the other hand falling dream is due to deficiency in the upper and excess in the lower part. You see this often in water retention in the kidneys and deficiency of yang in the heart.
What is the meaning of the dream of looking for food and water? Looking for food dream imply a weak spleen and deficiency of yin in the stomach. Looking for water dream imply excessive yang and depletion of bodily fluids for example due to high fever or dehydration.
What about looking for wee wee dream? According to the classic this dream is often caused by painful urination, inflammation of the intestines, poor digestion or diarrhea.
Finally what about sleep walking? It is usually due to stagnation of qi in the liver or distractions!
That is dreams interpretation for you from an ancient Chinese classics.
