Dream Case Studies:
Dream Example 1:
“In my dream, I was watching a performance. Although it was captivating with many spectators, I kept thinking about work. A young boy in the front row turned around, stuck his tongue out at me, made a face, and turned away.” (Male, 31 years old)
Dream Analysis:
Dreaming of a tongue in this context is negative, suggesting rumors that distress you. This period might be marked by mood swings due to rumors. However, rumors will eventually be clarified. If a young woman dreams of sticking her tongue out, it hints at emotional instability.
Dream Example 2:
“I dreamt that my tongue split into two parts, connected only in the middle. With some force, it felt like it could break apart. I was afraid of the pain, so I didn’t break it. The tip of my tongue felt numb. I bit it hard and a small piece came off, but it wasn’t painful. What does this mean?”
Dream Analysis:
The dream of the tongue offers two interpretations: (1) It reveals the dreamer’s health status. (2) It symbolizes speech, rumors, and expression abilities. The nearly severed tongue might suggest communication issues or challenges faced by the dreamer.
Dream Example 3:
“In my dream, my tongue felt like it was about to fall off but was hanging by a thread. It dangled outside my mouth, and there was a taste of blood. In the end, I managed to keep it in my mouth.”
Dream Analysis:
The tongue hanging outside indicates a risk of losing it. The taste of blood is a hostile force. However, there’s a strong desire to retain the tongue, indicating its value and importance.
