As you know, fights do not lead to good, because it is not for nothing that they say that a bad peace is better than a good quarrel, and even more so a brawl. However, in real life, skirmishes sometimes happen and therefore are reflected in our night visions. In this regard, a quite appropriate question arises: why does a fight dream in a dream and what secret meaning does it carry in itself? Armed with dream books, let's try to figure it out.
The interpretation of dreams that came from the ancient world
Starting fights, and, accordingly, seeing them in a dream, people started a very long time ago, perhaps even before they got the right to be called Homo sapiens, that is, rational beings. However, only in the era of high Hellenic culture did they bother to compile written interpretations of those outrages that they often witnessed in night visions. The classic of ancient Greek literature Aesop was especially successful in this. Let's start with his dream book.
Explaining to his contemporaries (and descendants, of course) what the dream dream promises them, the poet-fabulist expresses the followingjudgments. In his opinion, to be a witness to the battle, but not to get involved in it (which is very prudent) in real life means the approach of some kind of difficulty, which, however, will be overcome without much effort. If the dreamer nevertheless got into a fight, but not with the aim of supporting one side, but only in order to separate the brawlers, this may portend him imminent troubles, possibly caused by someone's rash act.
Further, according to the dream book compiled by Aesop, a fight in a dream with an opponent much superior in growth and physical development means an underestimation of one's own merits and a clear underestimation of self-esteem. If the dreamer not only refused to participate in the brawl, but also kept the militant crowd from this, then in reality this promises him unexpected support in a difficult situation, as well as the acquisition of faithful and reliable friends.
The opinion of an authoritative psychoanalyst
At the beginning of the 20th century, the Austrian psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud also found it necessary to tell the world what a fight in a dream means. Those who are familiar with his works are probably aware of the scientist's tendency to see intimate background in all movements of the human soul. He did not change himself this time either. So, in his opinion, if a man sees himself fighting in a dream, then this indicates his aggressiveness towards sexual partners. Moreover, this "sexual aggressor" clearly has sadistic tendencies.
At the same time, according to Freud's dream book, a fight in a dream committed by a woman,indicates that she is prone to masochism and, therefore, may become a victim of sexual aggression, well, at least from one of those men mentioned above. But on the other hand, dreams in which a woman constantly fights with someone betray her desire to start a relationship with a sexual partner who is much younger in age.
Concluding his comments on what the fight he saw in a dream could mean, the venerable master shares with readers another curious thought. In his opinion, if a person dreams that he is watching others fight, but does not intervene himself, this indicates his secret desire to observe the sexual pleasures of strangers, especially if they contain elements of sadism.
Dream book for adults
The baton of interpretation of dreams in the style of "18+" from Freud was taken by the now out of print "Intimate Dream Book", the name of which indicates its very specific specifics and this alone attracts the attention of readers. Needless to say, they are not disappointed. For example, about what the fight seen in a dream means, its authors boldly argue that it indicates the dreamer's fear of failing in a love bed.
In their view, such dreams happen to people who feel insecure and for this reason, at the most crucial moments, they give in to internal panic, which leads to the most sad results. As a result, they become stronger in the opinion of their inferiority and, as a result, give up trying toestablish an intimate relationship with someone.
But let's not talk about sad things, but let's see what the very self-confident English say about this, because they sometimes have to see fights between men and even women in their dreams.
English dream book
Among the inhabitants of Foggy Albion, there were always enough fighters, not without reason that modern boxing came to us from there. Well, since daytime realities, as a rule, become plots of night visions, the British often had to ask themselves the question of what a fight means in a dream, of which they happened to be witnesses or participants. Based on their opinions, the world-famous “English Dream Book” was created, which has recently become widespread in our country.
The main idea contained in it is that dreams of fights can hardly bode well. In most cases, they portend the dreamer to family troubles caused by his misunderstanding of loved ones and attempts to withdraw into his selfish aspirations. In a detrimental way, such a dream can also affect lovers - having a fight in a dream, in reality they, as a rule, part.
Don't run away from enemies and don't fight ladies
The British also noticed that if in night dreams a dreamer runs away from someone and receives a fair amount of slap in the face, then in real life this portends the triumph of his enemies, secret or overt. But if he still finds the strength to overcome fear and, turning around, slap the pursuer with a good slap, then in reality he will be able to adequatelyresist intruders.
In a very unexpected way, the authors of the English Dream Book answer the question of what a fight with a woman they saw in a dream promises (although it is difficult to imagine a fight between a gentleman and a lady). Oddly enough, but, in their opinion, she portends a quick love to the dreamer, especially if the image of the lady with whom he grappled in night vision corresponds to some real prototype. However, this novel will not bring happiness, but will only serve as a cause of spiritual experiences.
Dream Interpretation Longo
Now let's see how such dreams are interpreted in our country, where a good fight from time immemorial has been almost an element of national culture. Suffice it to recall fisticuffs “wall to wall”, without which not a single holiday could do in the old days, or the “showdown” sung by M. Yu. Lermontov between the merchant Kalashnikov and the guardsman Kiribeevich. In order to get the information we are interested in in its entirety, let's turn to the dream book compiled by the popular Russian magician, illusionist and TV presenter Yuri Longo.
It is characteristic that his point of view is fundamentally different from the above judgments. First of all, the magician declares that a fight in a dream is a good omen, promising the dreamer an active life, as it indicates a surge of his internal energy. People who are given such visions by the night are not inclined to passively expect changes in life, but create their own future. In old age, they, as a rule, “have something to remember.”
Very original author interprets andthe question of what it means to separate the fighting in a dream. In his opinion, this indicates the dreamer's inclination in real life to play the role of an arbitrator, which, however, is not always possible, especially in the absence of proper authority among others. If, while separating the fighters, he himself receives a lot of cracks, then this indicates that in reality he likes to interfere in other than his own affairs, for which he is often punished. Conclusion: Don't stick your nose where it doesn't belong.
Fight with friends
Since in real life fights break out for a variety of reasons (and sometimes without them) and have countless forms, the dreams generated by them are very diverse. Their interpretations are given in the Modern Dream Book. By opening it, you can, for example, find out what a fight with friends seen in a dream promises.
It turns out that everything depends on what the real relationship with the hero of the dream is. If in reality the dreamer has strong friendly feelings with him, then after such a dream they will only intensify. And vice versa: a fight in a dream with a person who does not deserve friendship, but claims it, serves as a warning against further rapprochement.
Fight with close relatives
Still very curious is the clarification of the question of what a fight with a father or mother seen in a dream can mean. If in reality such blasphemy is difficult to imagine, then in night visions it may well happen. As it turned out, this dream most often visits young people and indicates their secret desire to free themselves from the overly intrusive guardianship of parents or relatives.relatives. They are encouraged, without judging their relatives, to act in accordance with their preferences, but at the same time not to go beyond the generally accepted morality.
Never fight girls
At the end of the article, let's consider another rather absurd, but often occurring dream plot - a fight with a girl. It also finds its interpretation in a number of popular dream books. For example, Mr. Miller, already mentioned above, believed that a fight with a young person indicates that the difficulties experienced by the dreamer in real life only seem serious and will soon be overcome.
However, he also makes a reservation that if the result of a fight is any external damage - broken noses, torn hair or bruises under the eyes, then in reality the case can turn into serious trouble at work or in personal life. It is even possible that they will have far-reaching consequences.
The opinion of our contemporaries
Mr. Miller expressed his opinion at the beginning of the 20th century, as for modern dream books, they also talk about what it means to fight in a dream with a girl. As in all other interpretations, the meaning of what is seen is made dependent on the general plot context. For example, if the dreamer is not a participant, but only a fleeting witness to a fight, this indicates a quick and useless waste of money. However, as soon as he lingers, carefully examining the presented picture, how in reality he may be in the center of some disturbing events. In the same timeas soon as the dreamer personally intervenes in a fight, his best undertakings will be crossed out in real life.
There are also two important things to consider. First: if you dreamed of two (or several) fighting girls, you should not try to separate them, since in this case you can become a victim of a false accusation in reality. And second: a wound received in a dream from a young person (heart wounds do not count), in real life, may portend betrayal by loved ones.
Let's add some optimism
However, not everything is so bad. You need to strive for victory not only in reality, but also in a dream (especially since it is much easier), and the reward will not keep you waiting. It has been established that if the dreamer nevertheless gets into a fight with the girl and is able to defeat her (which does not always work out), then in real life he will be able to avoid many unpleasant circumstances. Let's try to always avoid not only fights, but also fleeting quarrels, then dreams will not be overshadowed by their plots.
