Landscape Dream Meanings

The landscapes of dreams are symbolic scenarios in which each and every one of the elements that comprise it should be considered. For example, for a person overwhelmed by financial problems, a mountain ridge can mean a profit chart and economic losses. Now, to understand the symbolic meaning of a landscape you must distinguish the predominant features from the minor ones. So, when an element reigns above all others and unifies them (sea, desert, etc.), you must interpret the dream in terms of this main component. But if, instead, the landscape offers variety and balance of different elements, then it must be analyzed as if it were a painting, paying attention to the shapes of objects (flat, pointed, round, etc.) and the colors that stand out.

Lasso The meaning of the symbol varies depending on the type of lasso.

If decorative ones appear in your dream, you are probably in a moment when you need others to show you affection and tenderness. Your emotions are going through a fragile stage and you are not very sure of what you feel. You also don’t know how others feel about you. That is why you seek security in expressions of affection If a lasso is around your neck, preventing you from breathing normally, it means that you are immersed in a stressful process that may make you lose your nerve. You feel threatened by a danger that others don’t seem to consider very serious.

Landscape or scenery can represent: A real-life setting or scene.

Elements that create a particular setting or scene for dream action (such as a dark forest to convey a setting of remoteness or confusion).

Decoration, creative expression, or improvement (as in landscaping around a house).

The real-life people or things you encountered along the way in the part of your real life portrayed in the dream (similar to encountering different kinds of scenery on a trip).

The idea of being or feeling inconsequential (as the scenery in a play is often not part of the central action).

To dream of various landscapes symbolizes your current standing in life or relationships. This provides appreciation and recognition for the vital role you play in the community. According to Sigmund Freud, the landscape represents the human body.

To dream of seeing ever-changing landscapes represents psychological transitions or emotional advancement. It stands for different phases in your life. Then again, your dream may be a reminder for you to consider other points of view. Recall the important elements in the landscape and consider their corresponding symbolism and representations.

The meaning of this dream depends on your reaction to the landscape; if it struck you as being beautiful or pleasing, it signifies bright future prospects; but if it was ugly or unpleasant in any way, you must be prepared to sit out a season of dissatisfaction.

This dream depends upon the circumstances.

If the Landscape is a fine open one, that gives you pleasure, then it is a most fortunate dream. But if the view is shut out or obscured by hills or forests, then you will have to face many troubles and obstacles.

Freud saw this image as a symbol for the human body.
