Dear Dr. Kathy,
How can a person tell whether their Dreams are a message from GOD?? and is it scriptural for Christians if they still don’t know what their dreams mean have it be interpreted??
I have a friend who wants to know the meaning of her dreams.
God Bless!
In Jesus Christ name,
Blessings to you and yours!

Hi Martha,

I will answer your questions in CAPS below:

“How can a person tell whether their Dreams are a message from GOD??”

ANY DREAM FROM HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS IS FROM SPIRIT, WHETHER IT BE OF MANS SPIRIT WITHIN OR SPIRIT OF GOD IS DETERMINED BY THE CONTENT. I CAN USUALLY TELL IF THE DREAM IS OF GOD, IF THE DREAM CONTAINS CONSISTENT SYMBOLOGY AND A CLEAR MESSAGE. WE DO DREAM FROM OUR SUBCONSCIOUS WHICH IS STILL SPIRITUAL-THE HIGHER PART OF SELF TRYING TO RESOLVE EVERYDAY SITUATIONS THAT CONCERN US. AS CHRISTIANS, I BELIEVE MOST OF OUR DREAMS ARE DIRECTED BY GOD. IN THE OLD TESTAMENT AND NEW, YOU NEVER READ ABOUT ANYONE DISMISSING A DREAM. PEOPLE ACTED ON THE MESSAGES THEY RECEIVED.I WILL ATTACH MY FREE E-BOOK ON NIGHTMARES WHICH HAS A SECTIONS ON DIFFERENT LEVELS/TYPES OF DREAMS.

“and is it scriptural for Christians if they still don’t know what their dreams mean have it be interpreted?”

HOW ELSE WILL YOU KNOW WHAT THE MESSAGE IS? 1CORINTHIANS SPEAKS OF THE SPIRITUAL GIFTS, THE ONE MENTIONED “GIFT OF INTERPRETATION” IS SPEAKING OF SPIRITUAL TONGUES. A PROPHET WILL GIVE A MESSAGE BUT NOT SURE OF THE INTERPRETATION HE GIVES. ANOTHER WILL GIVE THE INTERPRETATION THAT THE PROPHET SPOKE IN ANOTHER TONGUE. HAVING THIS GIFT, I NEVER KNEW WHAT THE PROPHET SPOKE NOR THE LANGUAGE USED, BUT BY FAITH I WOULD HEAR THE INTERPRETATION IN MY MIND AND REVEAL THE MESSAGE. I DON’T KNOW OF ANYONE WITH THE GIFT OF INTERPRETATION WHO UNDERSTANDS ALL LANGUAGES AND THEIR MEANINGS BUT BY LEARNING A LITTLE ABOUT THE PERSON, THE DREAM IS MUCH EASIER TO INTERPRET, AS WELL AS BEING CONFIRMED IN MY SPIRIT THAT I AM ON THE RIGHT TRACK (THERE IS ALWAYS SELF DOUBT…EVEN AFTER ALL THESE YEARS).

“I have a friend who wants to know the meaning of her dreams..”

IDEALLY, I BELIEVE GOD WOULD LIKE US TO INTERPRET OUR OWN MESSAGES. BELIEVERS IN THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT DID NOT NEED AN INTERPRETER BUT THE NON-BELIEVERS SOUGHT ANSWERS THROUGH A DREAM INTERPRETER. THE DIFFERENCE FROM THEN UNTIL NOW IS, THE DREAM WAS HONORED AND THIS KNOWLEDGE WAS PASSED ON FROM ONE “BELIEVING” GENERATION TO ANOTHER. DANIEL WENT TO SCHOOL TO LEARN OF SYMBOLOGY AND HOW TO INTERPRET DREAMS BY UNGODLY MEN, BUT EVEN HE REALIZED THAT THE TRUE INTERPRETATION IS FROM GOD.

BACK AT YOU…..

HOPE THIS HELPED.

Dear Dr Kathy,
In my dream, I was in a tub with my toddlers (4 and 2) and my mother came in. Side note: It was weird because an old friend of mine also came in the tub, another friend’s toddler, and eventually my husband who came afterward (who I promptly told to cover up!) I saw my oldest struggling to keep his head afloat so I drained the water out (which was mucky from cleaning products) to fresh, warm water. My two year old was on my right side at the time when I realized that I didn’t see him anymore. I looked below and he was under the water. I quickly grabbed him and tried to hand him to my mother to help me revive him, (he was not breathing at first) but she hesitated to grab him, not knowing what was going on. So I turned him over and hit him on his back until water came out of his mouth and he started breathing again. I was relieved at first, but after a little while, I noticed that he was dosing off in the tub again. At this point, my oldest son had gotten out of the water. I laid him out on the ground and pushed his chest in for CPR and more water started coming out of his mouth, I repeated this action. At the same time, I lay my hands on his head and prayed vigorously for his healing in Jesus’ Name. He seemed to be reviving, going in and out of consciousness, then I woke up. This is the second or third time I have dreamed that my son was nearly drowning, the last dream I had like this, he was drowning in a lake or pond. Thank you so much for your help.

Side note: In a completely different dream last night, my husband, the kids and I were going down a pier into a shallow body of water that was calm. He put his foot in the water but it was cold, so he told us to stay there while he swept the water away with a broom. After doing so, he helped us down and we put our feet in wet sand. That’s all I remember regarding that.
Ashanda

Dear Ashanda,
The tub of murky water is where you are spiritually. This indicates spiritual exhaustion on your part (and husband if he is in the same water.) The people in your life, the church, friends and family members zap you of your spiritual energy, leaving yourself wide open for spiritual attack. You are struggling to stay a float, trying to be all things to all people. You are willing to breathe life into others, healing them, but neglecting self. You may need to ask your Mom to help you with the kids for time-out.

The dream that follows at a calm beach indicates a definite need to take time-out for your spiritual renewal and healing for yourself. I hope you are praying for protection for you and family from attack otherwise negativity can attach itself to us, causing us to feel weighed down. You Need some spiritual cleansing and renewal but you are not taking heed to the dream warnings. This is why you are having so many dreams of drowning and water. I wish you blessings and rest.

Wellsphere member has sent you the following message:

Dear Dr KATHY,

I had a dream I walking to the kitchen. I was looking for something and heard a loud sneaking sound. I walked towards the sound and it was beyond cabinet . It was white ratlike creature on a trap. I set to kill rats. It was screaming and it looked at me but I kept my distance. It was trying to get out of the trap and attack but I ran.

Dear Dreamer
The kitchen is the heart of the home. Do you at times feel trapped in your own home? Are there times you want to just scream out loud to let everyone know you are hurting? Do you fear confronting your adversary or the “rat” that could be in your life now? Do you actually set traps in your home currently?

Let me know your answers before I confirm an interpretation.

Sincerely
Dr Kathy

Response from Dreamer:

Dear Dr. Kathy,
Yes to all your questions. My sister was in a bad situation with her ex husband and NY city court system. By the Grace of God, He steps in and what was done in the dark came to light. I had to help support her but I feel some how trapped. I know God is here for my sister but I afraid to move on. I know I made the right decisions to help. I sacrifice a lot and I need to go back out in the world. I don’t know if I doing the right thing. I already have regret because this situation. I don’t want anymore.

Dreamer

Dear Dr Kathy,
I dream that i am in city this city was not totally big but there is an event that I’ve seen my self looking on a top view of the city and i was amazed because this city was build in a mountain and on his two sides was filled with blazing fire i was wondering because this city is the only structure I’ve seen. cause the other environment i see was only a fire and a mountain everywhere on the land and i see a red bird flying in the sky and i call it Phoenix (in Myth) i am wondering what was my dream trying to tell me it is the ETERNAL FIRE of HELL?”

“Dear Vaanish”
The city is the center of activity going on in you. There are many changes taking place in your life. The mountain is closest to God…where you are. The fire represents purification. The phoenix is a mythical bird which can be consumed by fire and rise above the ashes, renewing itself for the better. This is a transformation process going on inside of you, a spiritual rebirth.

Thank you for sharing this dream…Very powerful symbols!

Sincerely

Dr Kathy

Dear Dr Kathy
What is your explanation for having sex in the dream?.
Thanks for your time & energy.

Dear Reader

Another “not so easy explanation”…but I will do my best to highlight the varied meanings…Unlike other dream interpreters, I don’t believe Freud’s concepts of dream interpretation, believing that most dreams are sexual by nature…NOT TRUE unless you are sexually pre-occupied or have a sexual addiction disorder, then your dreams might indicate the literal act of sex which would include your fears about sex or your own sexual thoughts, desires, or wishful thinking.

There are a number of reasons for having sex dreams. The first and most common is for the dreamer to get intimate with their male / female side. In cases where, a person is too male (e.g. causing them to repress their feelings, too macho, too much ego etc.) or too female (causing them to lack confidence in themselves, maybe too sensitive, too much nurturing to the point of enabling others), the dream tries to heal this by representing the male or female side as something desirable, something to develop within yourself.

Sometimes the act of sex between the two opposite sexes indicates you have chosen to accept these qualities and are working at being either more emotional or less sensitive (for example).

If you find yourself having sex with a male/female you know of, then ask yourself “what character traits does this person have that I want to develop within myself?” I have had dreams of a man I admire which indicated the type of man I wanted to be with someday. I dreamt of having sex with Patrick Swayze (the actor) because I wanted to dance like him as well as find a partner to dance with (dirty dancing movie). This dream actually motivated me to take ballroom dancing for fun….and I love it. Bring on that Mambo…I’m ready for it, thanks to Patrick!

The dream wants both male and female sides of the self to share closeness in an uninhibited way. This sharing restores balance to the dreamer so they can draw on the strength inherent in the aspect of their nature they were repressing. Ideally, we all want to balance our male/female sides. Our God is as much female as he is male. His compassion and heart felt love is a female aspect…among other traits. Our God does not think nor acts like our human macho man. He represents the character traits we all want to develop within ourselves…to be more like Christ.

Many people are shocked to find themselves having sex in a dream with a person of the same sex.. A woman having sex with another woman in a dream is a healing device intended to put the dreamer in close contact with her heart / feelings. It’s learning to love and accept you as a woman. (Unless you are a man, then it’s learning to except your male characteristics and to love who you are.) This can often be misinterpreted by sexes to mean they are “gay” individuals, when that isn’t normally the case at all.

Sexual Dreams can also be stress reducers. If you have been inactive for a while, you may just need release, but don’t desire to sleep around with just anyone to get it. In this case the dream attempts to heal stress or whatever impact abstinence is having on the relationship or lack of a relationship.

Whenever a dreamer is able to be honest with themselves in private but puts on a false image in public by appearing tough, non-emotional, may find themselves have sex or being naked in public indicating the fear of being vulnerable in front of others. Again the purpose of the dream is to face the truth about you, face the fear. Do not be afraid of being honest with others in private or public. So you get a little vulnerable, it’s okay, allow yourself to experience it.

There are many other sexual dreams that could be discussed here, but for the sake of time and my fingers cramping….I will end here. Should you have a specific dream you’d like help with, do not hesitate to write me.

Sincerely
DrKathy

Hello, my first time here & it was out of curiosity i visited this blog because am HUNGRY for information. I dream a lot that a xtain brother nick-named me ‘JOSEPH THE DREAMER when we were in the higher institution. My dreams started at an early childhood which some do come to pass, some not, some are attack & some are revelation concerning my spiritual life [anytime I do ask]. Regarding the response you gave ANNE, I am surprised because we have been taught that the living have no relationship with the dead & once a man dies, it is then judgement follows. please enlighten me. thanx

Dear Kareem,
The living in Christ (The righteous) such as Moses and Elijah, appeared to Jesus as a comfort to him before his soon to be death. See Luke 9:28-33 below:
28.About eight days after Jesus said this, he took Peter, John and James with him and went up onto a mountain to pray. 29.As he was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning. 30.Two men, Moses and Elijah, 31.appeared in glorious splendor, talking with Jesus. They spoke about his departure, which he was about to bring to fulfillment at Jerusalem. 32.Peter and his companions were very sleepy, but when they became fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men standing with him. 33.As the men were leaving Jesus, Peter said to him, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.”

34.While he was speaking, a cloud appeared and enveloped them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. 35A. voice came from the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, whom I have chosen; listen to him.” 36.When the voice had spoken, they found that Jesus was alone. The disciples kept this to themselves, and told no one at that time what they had seen.

There is no simple explaination but I will do my best to help you understand. The word “dead or “death” are used symbolically as well as literally throughout scripture. A death can be a dying to the old carnal nature of sin to arrive at a christian state of living…but not an actual physical death. Those that choose not to follow the ways of God are considered “dead already.” Matthew 8:22 says, “But Jesus told him, “Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.” And, “Matthew 22:32, “‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’ [ Exodus 3:6] ? He is not the God of the dead but of the living.”

This meaning, the living dead (Non-believers) are to bury the Physical dead. Those are the ones who are judged at time of death. The believer and follower of Christ just sleeps and the spirit is with God. Matthew 9:24, “he said, “Go away. The girl is not dead but asleep.” But they laughed at him.”

Now to answer your question: We, believers should not be seeking the unrighteous dead for answers about life. We can pray for the unrighteous and we may see them in our dreams as a reminder to do so. We may be visited by the unrighteous as a means to make an amends (from them or from you to them). But we do not seek counsel from such entities. As for those spirits that have crossed over from this earth plane to the living spirits in Christ (the righteous), we can also pray to them asking for guidence as oftentimes Catholics pray to Mary and other deceased saints for particular circumstances. In my reference above, Jesus sought comfort from Moses and Elijah. He (Jesus) was transfigured (in spirit body) as we are when asleep, visiting the other side.

In the same chapter of luke 9:34-36, the disciples heard a voice from Heaven, which was the voice of God telling them Jesus is his son and they should listen to him. So we have to ask, why didn’t Jesus go to his Father for comfort rather than Moses and Elijah? Hmmmm

I hope this has enlightened you somewhat and if you have further questions, don’t hesitate to ask. The fact you are hungry for the word is a wonderful thing. Keep seeking and keep asking until you find the answers you are looking for.

Blessings
DrKathy

Hello Dr Kathy,

I read your article about dreaming for other people. I am still confused about an ongoing situation.

Thanks
Anne
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Hello Anne,

Thank you for sharing your dreams with us.

Because you acknowledge your dreams and willing to be a messenger to others, the deceased loved ones on the other side will use you to be their messenger as long as you choose to and are willing. If for some reason you don’t want to be a certain party’s messenger, all you have to do is pray to God and to them, asking them to stop the contact. I began my ministry very similar to this, so I understand your dilemma.

You are going about this wonderfully and validation is important whenever possible. Excellent job!

Whenever loved ones cross over, they don’t always have time for closure for the loved ones they leave behind. Therefore they oftentimes seek a source willing to help in this process. You have been chosen!

If you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to ask!

Sincerely
DrKathy

Dear Dr. Kathy
I had this dream that me and my three friends was on the beach. We were going to go somewhere but we didn’t have no monies. So as I looked on the ground I saw a few coins, I picked those up. Then I saw more, at this time I’m digging and finding more and more coins. I have already gathered a full pouch of coins, then as I continue to digg. I saw a a white pouch buried, I picked it up and it was full of more coins. So I have now two pouches full of coins, I stopped digging and left the beach with the two coins in my hand. Can you tell me what you think this could mean,
Thank you
Tima

Dear Tima,
Your dream indicates you will never go without money for long. God will see to it you will always be provided for. Continue to seek him, dig into his word, and you will find his grace.

Blessings to you

Hello again dear Dr.K.

Here is another dream I need some help on (sigh)

Austin & I were driving in a Chevelle (My dream car), he was driving and I was the passenger. It was a sunny green summer day, we were on a dirt road and he over shot the corner while driving and went into the ditch. The ditch was steep and I told Austin to keep driving to go up the other side of the ditch and get up & out of it and he did, I told him to make sure not to hit a tree cuz it would definitely wreck the car, and then to look for a way down back into the ditch, but not too steep cuz then we would do a nose dive and crash and not be able to get out. During this I wanted him to keep up the momentum and not to stop so we wouldn’t be bogged down and get stuck before we had a chance to go through the ditch and get back up on the road. It turned out the ditch was too steep and he had to stop. He stopped in a place where I got out there was a electric fence, fencing in a 3 sections, like 3 big rectangles, about 40 ft by 50ft if I would have to guess size. The fence was a shiny metal wire and thin, unlike what a electric fence is for real. When I got out of the car I had no choice but to grab the electric fence in order to make my way through it, I knew I was going to get a shock and braced myself mentally, I did get a shock and I told myself to let go of it as fast as I could so I wouldn’t continue with the shock. That was the end of that dream…

Thanks
Robbie

Dear Robbie

Because you are in your dream car and Austin is driving I believe Austin represents your husband who is laid back and you see him as immature, possibly stubborn at times, trying to convince him to let you go ahead with your dream plans regarding the store/bakery. These roads and obstacles are symbolic of your mind racing to make this work. The electric fence is meant to keep you out, stop you from making a bad choice right now, therefore a warning that a poor choice could lead to a lot of pain.

..hmmmm what are you planning now in that busy mind of yours? The three triangle lots I believe symbolize your current 3 business/dream ideas. Do you feel your husband stands in the way of you reaching your dreams? This dream seems to indicate so.

Best Wishes

DrK
