Dreams in which you have to flee from some kind of danger are akin to action-packed action movies, and therefore, like no other, they are disturbed by questions related to the meaning hidden in them. To get a complete and detailed answer, let's open the writings of some authoritative interpreters and find out, for example, what it means to run away in a dream from an unfamiliar man. Note that most of the interpretations and recommendations given in the article are addressed equally to dreamers of both sexes.
Opinion of an overseas connoisseur of dreams
We will start the review of the material with a dream book compiled at the beginning of the last century by the famous American psychiatrist Gustav Miller, who, among other things, explains the dreams in which you have to run away from a man. The interpretations of dreams given by this author are always based on the results of a survey of a large number of respondents, and therefore deserve special attention.
First of all, the author recommends paying attention to your own emotions that have arisen both during sleep and after waking up. According to himAccording to the statement, if the dreamer felt fear, this may be a harbinger of financial difficulties awaiting him, the extent of which will be directly proportional to the feelings experienced. In contrast, we would like to hope that the absence of fear is the key to future we alth, but we do not find anything like this in the dream book.
When running away, try not to stumble and avoid pursuit
Further, Mr. Miller wrote that if you really had to run away from a stranger in a dream, then it is important not to stumble on the go. Otherwise, the real life of a fugitive may be overshadowed by all sorts of troubles in the business sphere. What kind of troubles will fall on him, the author is silent, but warns that he will not be able to overcome them alone, he will have to look for a reliable patron.
And finally, the master tells his readers the good news: if the escape he dreamed of ends successfully and the pursuer cannot overtake them, then in reality one can expect worthy compensation for the fears experienced. The dynamics of later life will develop in the most favorable direction, and if difficulties arise, then all of them will be easily overcome. So if you have to run away from a stranger in a dream, then you should do it as quickly as possible.
Identify the problem and rely on friends
The dream book does not leave night fugitives without its friendly support, the compiler of which modestly calls himself "The Wanderer". This very popular publication claims that such a plot is associated with some internalexperiences that took possession of the dreamer in his real life. Some kind of persistent concern torments him, absorbing mental, and sometimes physical strength. The author edifyingly recommends to his readers who find themselves in a similar situation, first of all, try to clearly outline the contours of the existing problems for themselves, and then, if they cannot be solved on their own, turn to loved ones for help.
Noteworthy is the author's remark about what it means to run away in a dream from a man he knows in real life. Such a plot twist is considered by him as a very alarming sign, because if you fail to escape in a dream, then there is a threat in reality to fall into material or some other dependence on the pursuer. So, returning to the advice of Mr. Miller, given in the previous chapter, we advise everyone who flees from the chase in a dream to run as fast as they can, and thus, perhaps, save themselves from real troubles.
Two radically different points of view
Do not enter into polemics with the authors of the publications mentioned above and the compilers of the "English Dream Book". Covering the question of why they dream of running away from strangers, they share the general opinion about the extreme negativity of such a plot. According to them, a night flight is a harbinger of some kind of dishonor that awaits the dreamer in real life. However, such a turn of events is by no means inevitable and completely preventable, one has only to exercise elementary caution in communicating with others. It is also not recommended to indulge in any kind of riskyenterprises whose outcome is difficult to predict.
A completely different point of view is shared by the authors of the Modern Combined Dream Book, which successfully competes on store shelves with other publications of this kind. According to them, running away from a stranger in a dream is a sign that someone who offended the dreamer in real life intends to apologize to him and try to restore good relations. It is even possible that, in expiation of his guilt, he will provide some kind of material compensation for the moral damage caused. Such a denouement would be perfectly in line with modern mores.
Beware of male deceit and act decisively
If all the above interpretations are addressed equally to both men and women, then, looking through the dream books, you can find comments addressed exclusively to the fair sex, who happened to run away in a dream from unfamiliar men. Many authors focus the attention of their readers on the fact that such dreams are often visited by women who are naturally naive and gullible. It is they who become unwitting victims of male seekers of easy prey, and danger can lie in wait for them both in the business sphere and in their personal lives.
Thus, the above-mentioned Mr. Miller, referring to dreamers, prophesies life complications for them, the cause of which may be the object of their heartfelt affection. It is by no means excluded that in reality they will have to fall passionately in love with someone, and then suffer, having met instead of reciprocalfeelings are just cold calculation.
The readers and compilers of the Old Russian Dream Book inform their readers about the hidden meaning of such visions. To run away from an unfamiliar man, in their opinion, means that in reality a woman is extremely burdened by excessively protracted intimate relationships with a certain partner who has lost attractiveness in her eyes. Past feelings for him have long cooled down, and inflicting pain with an unexpected breakup lacks determination.
Dreams warning of scams and deceptions
Having found out in general terms why one dreams of running away from an unfamiliar man, let us now dwell on the interpretation of those plots in which the dreamer is pursued by a person with whom he has to meet in reality. Both men and women should know that visions of this kind are a warning from above that their nighttime pursuer is plotting something evil in real life.
Perhaps some kind of scam is being prepared on his part, which should be stopped in time. To everyone who has been visited by such dreams, interpreters strongly recommend not to dismiss them, but to carefully look at their surroundings in order to predict in advance where the potential danger comes from.
Explanations addressed to both young and old maids
Very curious interpretations are given by the authors of dream books about what a night flight from a man means, dreaming of a lonely, but not yet old woman. By all accounts, this story shows her unwillingness to change anything in her life and start, if not a family, then at leastboyfriend, which in most cases is a consequence of a certain mental pathology. In reality, these dreamers experience an overwhelming fear not only of physical, but also of spiritual intimacy with members of the opposite sex. Their lives tend to be dull and colorless.
The plot, in which someone you know is the pursuer, can be seen not only by mature women, but also by very young girls who are just making plans for their future life. The most famous interpreters of dreams, such as M. Zadeka, G. Miller, Z. Freud and a number of other authors, recommend future brides not to try to connect their fate with the person from whom they ran away in a dream. According to them, this is not a suitable candidate for them at all, and a hastily concluded marriage will only bring tears and disappointments.
Night escapes from lawful husbands
A special section of interpretations is addressed to those who happened not only to run away from men, but to see in a dream how they are being saved from their own husbands. In this case, the solution to the vision also depends on its plot features, but as a rule, it is associated with some kind of secret offense committed by a woman in relation to her husband and a heavy burden on her conscience. Usually we are talking about a banal adultery, committed not by the inclination of the heart, but only because of a momentary whim.
However, there is another explanation for such a vision, which is also often found in dream books. Running away in a dream from a man with whom a woman is married means that she is afraid of losing him bycause independent of her. In this case, there can be many reasons for internal panic - his love affairs, the coldness caused by time and the fading of former feelings, or even the illness of a spouse that can lead to death. In any case, the dreamer has a reason to think about her relationship with her husband and, if necessary, direct them in the right direction.
Escape from ex
As for dreams in which a woman runs away from her ex-husband, that is, a person lost to her, but who left his mark on her soul, in such a plot, most interpreters attach a positive meaning to such a plot. In their opinion, it is a sign that in real life the dreamer needs to cast aside all the fears and doubts associated with making the most important decisions. She has a strong enough intuition that she can trust without fear of making a mistake.
Be realistic in life
It is worth noting that, according to a number of compilers of dream books, running away from an unfamiliar man who has a clear intention to kill or at least rape his victim is not always a formidable warning of impending danger. In some cases, this is simply evidence of mental fatigue, which was the result of a continuous life race.
People, endowed by nature with an active and active character, sometimes tend to set goals for themselves, the achievement of which exceeds their physical and intellectual capabilities. Concerningexperts strongly recommend that everyone who has been persecuted by a maniac, murderer or rapist in a dream, critically approach the outlined prospects and, if necessary, bring them into line with their real potential. Otherwise, there may be a threat of a serious nervous breakdown.
In order to more fully present the most common interpretations about what dreams of running away from strangers, let us dwell on the judgment given by the authors of the Esoteric Dream Book. In their work, they warn those to whom the night gave such a vision of the danger posed by a close friend, and possibly even a relative. One should not think that the image of an aggressive stranger that appeared in a dream excludes them from among potential ill-wishers. Perhaps soon life will force the dreamer to reconsider his attitude towards one of those whom he infinitely trusted.
Love will come by accident…
And at the end of the article, let's cite a completely unexpected opinion expressed two centuries ago by Martyn Zadeka. He argued that if the pursuer had a weapon in his hands - a knife, a pistol, or at least a simple club, then this is an omen of the passionate and passionate love that awaits the dreamer in real life. It will pierce his heart like a knife stab, pierce his chest like a flying bullet, and deprive him of his mind like a blow to the head. Like it or not, we won’t argue, especially since Martyn Zadeka immortalized his name by writing the same dream book that once became the handbook of Pushkin’s Tatiana Larina.
