At the word "monument" each person has his own persistent association. For some, this is a sculpture in the square, for others - a statue in the garden. Tombstones immediately appear before the eyes of some people when pronouncing this word, while others imagine historically significant buildings, that is, monuments of culture or architecture.
Accordingly, there are not so few meanings of what monuments dream of. A dream about graves and cemetery monuments and a dream about statues erected in city squares cannot have the same interpretation.
What is important for understanding sleep?
If you had a dream, the monument in the plot of which appeared as the main image, then first of all you need to decide what exactly you dreamed of. That is, whether it was a statue of an angel from an old grave, a tombstone, a monument to some historical figure, or something else, such as a building.
You need to pay attention to how exactlylooked like a monument. Whether it was old, shabby, rickety, crumbling, covered in moss or mold, or, conversely, shining with fresh paint and newness.
No less important is the development of the dream plot. What is the role of the monument? Was he just present or was he a background for some events, actions? Was the monument itself an actor? Did the statue speak, move, or remain an immovable monument? If a tombstone was seen, then what was its condition? Was the tombstone intact or cracked? Were there chips on it? Was it opened in a dream?
If you dreamed of a building, then which one? It is important to remember not only the appearance, but also the purpose of the building. For example, a theater or a governor's palace and a fortress with prison casemates do not dream of the same thing, although they are united by the concept of "historical monument".
It is also important whether people were present in the dream, who they were, what they did or said. Thus, literally every detail has a meaning that determines the understanding of sleep.
What else to consider?
It is impossible to correctly understand what monuments dream of without taking into account the life experience and personality type of the dreamer himself. For example, a monument to V. I. Lenin, which is in almost every Russian city, dreamed of by a pensioner and a convinced communist who devoted his life to the party, and a young man who has just graduated from high school, will have completely different meanings, although the plot is the same.
In addition to life experience, personality traits, upbringing,beliefs, worldview and other individual points, it is necessary to pay attention to your own feelings both in the dream itself and after waking up from it. A bad dream is always burdensome, but a good dream, on the contrary, inspires.
When sleep doesn't matter?
Night visions do not always warn or testify about anything. Every dream book reports this. The monument at the heart of the dream storyline is no exception to this rule, such dreams may also have no hidden meaning.
Distinguishing visions that carry a certain message from empty and meaningless ones, which are only a projection of the work of the subconscious, is quite simple. Important dreams are remembered in great detail, and often a person is able to retell what he dreamed after a few years as if he dreamed it the other day.
Accordingly, if a dream is important, then you don’t have to painfully remember whether monuments made of granite were dreamed in it or made of metal, were there cracks on them or not, and so on. All the details necessary for interpretation will be remembered and deposited in the brain. Dreams are empty, not having a hidden meaning encrypted in symbols, they do not have such a feature.
What is written in the dream books?
Interpreters do not appeal to such concepts as "monument of architecture". That is, if you dream of a building with a security plate, then you should look for the meaning of the symbol under a different name that the dream book has. Monuments of architecture should be sought in collections of interpretations, guided by their intended purpose. That is, to look for the meaning of suchsymbols like a museum, a pyramid, a theatre, an obelisk, a triumphal gate, an arch, a residential building, a palace, and so on, depending on what you dreamed about.
As for statues and grave monuments, they are usually referred to by this name in dream books. The meaning of this symbol is given differently.
What is written in Freud's collection?
Granite monuments, like any others, are interpreted unambiguously in this dream book. This is phallic symbolism. The dream interpretation does not share the concepts of "monument" and "sculpture". Each figure, depicted in sculpture, is a symbolic reflection of intimate life. A more accurate meaning of what exactly the ghostly statue symbolizes can only be understood taking into account the personal qualities of a person, his gender and age, as well as the details of sleep.
For example, a sculptural monument, in which several figures or other components are involved, speaks of the desire for activity in sexual pleasures and the thirst for changing many sexual partners. If there are animals in the sculptural composition, such as horses, sleep is understood as a direct projection of sexual intercourse.
Sculpting a monument or carving it out of a rock is a symbol of the desire to change one's own partner or change him. And broken statues indicate the collapse of relationships or a crisis in them due to sexual incompatibility.
What is written in the French collection?
This dream book is one of the oldest. The interpretations taken from it becamethe basis for many such collections, including Miller's famous dream book. Many believe that the French collection is outdated, because it does not contain most of the plots characteristic of the dreams of modern people. However, this is not a completely correct position. The plots of dreams, filled with a hidden meaning hidden in symbols, have practically not changed for centuries. On this stability, which is a mystery to psychologists, collections of interpretations of visions are based. That is, the plots are stable, only the symbols that a person sees in a dream change.
For example, in the center of the dream storyline is a car. Of course, there is no car in the ancient dream book. But it has a horse and a cart, a carriage and other old vehicles that served people well before the advent of automobiles. It is under these names that you need to look for the interpretation of the symbol "car" in the old dream book. There are also adapted versions of this collection, which introduced modern symbols with traditional decodings.
What the monuments dream about, the French collection interprets ambiguously and even oppositely. To see them from the side in a dream - to sadness, despondency, sad events in life. But to admire a beautiful exquisite monument is a good sign. Such a dream portends success in matters related to money and good news.
What is written in the Hasse collection?
This dream book also interprets the symbol ambiguously. The grave monument is dreaming to sadness and sorrow, to despondency. But to see an obelisk is evidence of an exemplary, decent and generally correct, prosperous life. If athe obelisk is seen by a young man, then he will have such a life. In the event that a dream visited an elderly person, then a dream means that this is how he lived the past years.
Seeing an abstract monument from the outside, which is simply present in the plot, means that vain, unclaimed work, senseless efforts await ahead. But seeing your own monument is a good sign, portending peace, achieving goals, recognition and peace of mind.
What is written in the modern collection?
In the modern collection of interpretations, the symbol of the monument is considered in the context of the plot of a dream and the actions of a person in it. This collection of interpretations deciphers the monument to himself as evidence of excessive suspiciousness and criticism of his own person.
The initiative in a dream to destroy someone's monument or the leadership of this process, one's own actions, according to the dream book, indicate the presence of a sense of guilt, gravity, a sense of duty. In this dream, you should pay attention to whose monument is being destroyed, and consider the relationship with this person. If a monument to a historical character, writer or other figure is destroyed, then this indicates trouble in the social sphere, rejection of the current life situation, the foundations of society, work, and possibly the state system.
The dream book attaches particular importance to the plot in which a person is surrounded by monuments and, besides them, there is nothing in the vision. Sucha dream warns of an inadequate perception of reality, which, of course, needs to be changed. Separately, this dream book considers a monument in a cemetery, for the construction of which funds are being collected. This dream speaks of the upcoming troubles and worries associated with dear and close people.
What is written in the esoteric collection?
What the monuments dream about, esotericists understand in a peculiar way. In accordance with this collection of interpretations, to see a monument to someone in a dream means that in life you will have to face obstacles that suddenly appear, difficulties, unforeseen difficulties. If a monument in the plot of a dream is erected to a statesman or a person known for other activities, then such a dream promises the emergence of bureaucratic delays, any obstacles and intrigues on the part of officials.
To see a monument to yourself, not a cemetery, but a sculptural monument on the square is a bad sign. Such a dream warns of imminent death. You should pay the utmost attention to the smallest details of the vision. It is in them that a detailed decoding of the circumstances of the future lies, the little things indicate where to expect danger from.
But the dreamer himself sees the tombstone for a long and fulfilling life. This symbol is a good sign. But even in this dream, the smallest details and details are important. For example, you need to pay attention to whether there are cracks on the monument, to the weather in the cemetery. Cracks are difficulties on the path of life. Accordingly, the more of them, the more difficult the fate of a person will be. The weather is a symbol of what will surrounddreamer in life in general, outside of close family circles and personal interests.
If another person dreams of a tombstone, then this is an occasion to rethink their own priorities and life values. That is, to think about the meaning of your own life, its compliance with inner desires and spiritual needs.
What does Longo's collection say?
The erection of a monument to oneself is interpreted by this dream book as evidence of endless vanity, ambition and desire to become famous. If other people erect a monument, then success and public recognition will come to a person. But with the independent construction of the monument, the meaning changes. Such a dream suggests that the dreamer will not wait for recognition by people.
