Dreams about stranger

Having a dream about feeling like a stranger in a group of friends or acquaintances is an ominous sign of the possibility of having a negative experience in the near future. It might be as trivial as getting a flat tire on the way to an important transaction or as huge as losing a house in a fire. It is the incovenience in the aftermath of such an incident which would really get on your nerves.

Dreaming about meeting strangers or people you have not met before and feeling uneasy and uncomfortable in their midst symbolizes change. Whether or not such change is in your favor depends on how the strangers looked in your dream. If they looked physically attractive, you could expect favorable occurrences which would turn your life around. If they looked repulsive, or at least you felt an instant aversion the first time you met them, your current situation in life could take a turn for the worse.

If you are a man, encountering a strange woman in a dream is a reflection of your feminine side. Similarly, a woman dreaming about a strange man could have subconscious projections of her masculine tendencies. Although it connotes a hint of homosexuality, people experiencing this dream vision are not necessarily gay, since all people have their strong and soft sides to them, although their gender and sexual preference would manifest the more dominant side. At times, this dream vision could be accompanied by a subconscious notion of the stranger being sexually attracted to you but as if you were unaware of it.

Having a dream about befriending a stranger, for instance initiating a conversation, is a symbol of the willingness to go to great lengths to please people. This desire could be manifesting at work where you ensure that everything your superiors and colleagues ask you to do is followed in toto, solely for their satisfaction. It could also show in situations where you are trying to develop a romantic relationship with the opposite sex. You would do everything which you think would endear the person to you or earn that person's respect, admiration and love.

A dream about encountering an angry stranger symbolizes fearlessness to express anger or opposition when the situation warrants it. You would not hesitate to show your true feelings through harsh words if you think people have it wrong on a contentious issue or if you know that an act of injustice is being committed. It is not in your personality to just accept a popular set of beliefs with a sigh of resignation or to just watch while one human being blatantly violates another human being's rights. This dream vision indicates that you speak your mind freely whenever and wherever you feel like it.

To dream about looking or staring at strangers from a distance is a symbol of favorable social encounters. You might soon meet a group of people with whom you could develop close friendships or who could serve as your mentors and play a hand in reaching your life's dreams and aspirations. These people could have the power, influence and resources which could help propel you to success. As a word of caution, you should not take unfair advantage of their kindness and generosity. On the contrary, you should play it fair and work to achieve success which would benefit everyone involved.

Having a dream about being among strangers or people you have not met before predicts taking part in decision-making activities which could have life-changing effects. These decisions could yield both positive and negative results at the same time, such as cutting your company's workers in half to avert a potential financial crisis. On the one hand, it could help you save on costs. On the other hand, it could lower productivity as well as make ex-workers extremely unhappy. Deciding to have a divorce would be another example. Doing so might give you the freedom and independence you have been hoping for. However, it might also break your children apart.

Milling around with strangers who looked restless and agitated in a dream is a subconsious reflection of a similar situation in wake life.

You would be overcome by problems and not know how to prioritize or react accordingly. You could get out of your predicament if you can learn to take on these issues one at a time.

Dreaming about running into strangers at a party predicts getting actively involved in a civic or community-based activity which encourages volunteerism. An upcoming event in your area might see you planting trees in your neighborhood to promote a clean and greener environment. Your company's corporate responsibility department might require you and your colleagues to conduct a medical mission for the benefit of indigents in poor communities. The experience would give you a sense of fulfillment and pride. Conversely, this dream vision also indicates that you might attend a concert, a rally or a huge gathering in the near future.

A dream about running into a female stranger with long, flowing hair is a good sign in terms of romantic relationships.

Encountering an old female stranger in a dream is an ominous sign indicating heartaches and pain as a result of a damaged reputation. It does not matter whether the circulating rumors against your good name have some truth to them.

How you would deal with such acts of betrayal could prove your invincibility or expose you as a wimp.

Meeting a pregnant stranger in a dream portends betrayal or treachery for personal gains. Some people in your close social cirle would go out of their way to tarnish your good reputation and destroy your character so they could gain unfair advantage of you. These people might be jealous of what you have achieved so far, and they would do everything to put you down if that is what would place them in your current position in life.

Dreaming about having a verbal or physical fight with a female stranger portends the posibility of losing the upperhand in a competition due to a secrecy breach.

This dream vision is, therefore, a stern warning of such dangerous developments to take place if you are careless enough to allow them to happen.

Having a dream about encountering a furious female stranger portends the possibility of taking the blame or being subject to shame which is not deserved.

Dreaming about yourself as a stranger, as if you had an astral projection or out-of-body experience in which your spirit detached itself and was able to observe your physical state from a distance, is a grim symbol of peer rejection. You could become a misunderstood person, and people might begin to distance themselves from you for seeing something in you which may be rubbing them the wrong way. This dream vision is telling you to do a self-assessment. Otherwise, it might cause you loneliness and isolation, which could in turn result in extreme depression.

If you are a young woman, dreaming about making contact with a handsome stranger predicts major positive developments in your current romantic relationship.

You should know that nothing good could ever come out of a bad deed such as this.

Dreaming about approaching a stranger enveloped in a haze portends experiencing minor issues and difficulties in wake life.

Encountering a filthy-looking stranger who looked like he or she has not seen a bathroom in a while is ominous of a similar real-life situation. It could be several things.

Secondly, you might get yourself involved in a very nasty conflict with the people who used to be close to you. Thirdly, you could grow more and more detached from your spiritual or religious beliefs. Lastly, your health could deteriorate in just a short period of time. All of these could result from your own undoing.

Dreaming about running into a stranger who is covered in blood is a symbolic representation of living a decadent life. You are currently or may soon be engaging in activities which might give you so much pleasure but would put your morality, decency and overall character into question. If you have already immersed yourself in these activities, you can still bail out and come clean. If you are still planning to do them, it would be wise not to cross the line.

To dream about a stranger covered with or submerged in water symbolizes indulgence in worldly pleasures. Rather than nourishing your spiritual well-being with meditation and thoughts of God, you would rather feed the desires of the flesh and do whatever pleases your body, unmindful of the consequences or of what people might be saying.

Dreaming about a stranger running away from you symbolizes self-deception in the sense that you might be clinging to false hopes about a plan or goal which would be impossible to achieve. It is not a bad thing to set high goals for yourself, but those goals should be realistic, achievable and commensurate with your actual abilities. Otherwise, you would end up feeling frustrated and unhappy every time.

A dream about a stranger following you is tantamount to failures tailing you in wake life. If you keep pursuing something which has eluded you from the start, you may just have to accept the fact that you would not succeed in that field after all. For example, you might be a bit too persistent in developing a romantic relationship with a particular person even if that person has turned you down several times in the past. You might insist on applying for a particular job even if you would never be qualified for some reason or other. This dream vision is telling you that you would be better off or be more successful doing something else.

Trying to get rid of a stranger in a dream, for instance excusing yourself from a group conversation, is like running away from your problems in wake life. You seem to find it difficult to face your fears and troubles, and your constant recourse is to flee from the people, places or events which you think are the cause of your woes. But the problem has little to do with the people, places and events in your life. It is the demons in your head. Unless you can muster enough courage to face these personal demons, you will keep running for the rest of your life. You might try to ask for people’s help along the way, but only you can overcome what has been bothering you.

Dreaming about witnessing a crime where a stranger is being raped or sexually assaulted symbolizes frustrations and personal struggles stemming from a failure. You may have put a lot of effort into something which you believed could turn your life around, only to end up gaining little to nothing from the experience. Consequently, you might be blaming yourself for pursuing a futile endeavor.

Having a dream about hearing a stranger's call for help indicates anxieties and fears causing inner turmoil in wake life. Your inner struggles may come from life's uncertainties, that is, not being able to know what is in store for you and your family in the near future. You may need other people's assurance to give you the peace of mind that you need, so it is wise to confide your worries in your friends and family members.

Dreaming about coming in contact with an aggressive stranger signifies trading morality and spirituality for material possessions. Often the root cause of all evil is money, and you may have been blinded by the comforts which money has bought you for such a long time. Since you are not willing to give up your lifestyle, you may have given up your set of beliefs and values instead, just to ensure that you continue to live a decadent life. But at the end of the day, you might want to know how you would benefit from gaining the whole world and losing your soul in the process.

To dream about meeting a humble stranger is a symbol of spiritual and personal growth. Whereas in the past you may have neglected a side of you which could give you a sense of calm and tranquility, you would soon take time out to discover your spirituality amidst the chaos of everyday living.

You might even have time to travel for leisure.

Having a dream about observing a stranger caring for children is a sign of gaining spiritual strength and personal growth.

Observing a stranger doing gardening work in a dream symbolizes unwavering hope for the best of what life has to offer.

All you need to do is to learn to prioritize these goals and they will fall into place the way you have always wanted them to.

To dream about observing a stranger breastfeeding a child is a symbol of affection and love for a romantic partner. The vision of a mother in the process of noursihing her child is a subconscious representation of a growing relationship between you and the love of your life.

Dreaming about seeing a stranger moving awkwardly, for instance walking like a zombie or a robot, connotes self-deceit and a belief in the opposite of the truth. Without being aware of it, you might see something as good and beneficial even when the opposite is true. For example, the fact that you have been married for a long time now may have convinced you that your partner truly loves you, unaware that your partner's reason for staying in the relationship is the security and comfort of your material wealth. Or you might believe you are a gifted child because your mother constantly praises you, even if your teachers and classmates think you need a lot of improvement.

Meeting a polite, well-mannered stranger in a dream is a sign of getting help or assistance from an unlikely source.

However, someone you think would be the last person to help you would provide you that needed assistance, much to your surprise and delight.

A dream about encountering a drunk stranger symbolizes engaging in an unprofitable project or business venture. Perhaps seeing the success of others who have ventured into a similar undertaking, you would be tempted to invest your hard-earned money in an attempt to join the bandwagon and make substantial profits in the process. You may not have realized that the market has been saturated because hundreds of other business-minded people had the same idea and now you are fighting over a very small slice of the proverbial pie.

Dreaming about giving a stranger a hug is a symbolic image of a sweet reunion. A very close friend or someone you used to know would give you a surprise visit and make up for lost years.

Dreaming about coming in contact with a stranger during one of your travels is an ominous sign of a derailment in a current project or undertaking.

This dream vision is a reminder that you should resolve the issue as soon as possible if you want the project to move forward.

Dreaming about a stranger trying to bite you, a scene reminescent of a serial killer trying to leave his or her signature tooth marks on a victim, portends a period of misfortune and despair due to bad decisions in wake life. You may think that your material wealth and social status would make you invincible. But all of the things which you believe are giving you a sense of security could disappear in just a blink of an eye if you do not take good care of them. These could even be a source of conflict among your family members in the future.

Dreaming about seeing a naked stranger lying on your bed or having sex with you is a symbol of an unsatisfactory sex life. You dismal sexual encounters with your romantic partner could be the cause of your stress and the growing tension between the two of you. If you fail to address this issue with your partner in a timely manner, it might lead to infidelity, or worse, a breakup.

To dream about responding positively to a stranger who was kissing you is a sign that your current romantic partner or spouse may be losing respect for you. You might want to examine your behavior and actions and see whether you are giving this person reasons to treat you with disdain. After all, in through their eyes, you could be fooling around or taking the relationship for granted. It would not be so hard for this person to accept it if you just told him or her the truth and be honest about how you really act.

Dreaming about a bald-headed stranger trying to hit on you or flirt with you predicts having to deal with an annoying or irritating person in wake life. There is something in the way this person behaves in your presence which rubs you the wrong way, and your immediate reaction when this person is around would be to get out of there first chance you get.

Dreaming about waking up in a strange and unfamiliar room predicts a surprise visit. A friend or relative whom you have not seen in a very long time would appear on your doorstep all to your pleasant surprise. Your reunion would bring back happy memories and set unfulfilled plans in motion. By all indications, your fateful meeting would only be the beginning of something you would do together on a regular basis.

Living in a strange town in a dream predicts a slew of changes in wake life. It could be anything from changes in your hairstyle or fashion sense, your place of employment, your current romantic relationship, or all of the above. You should thank yourself for having enough courage to effect these changes because they would make your life a whole lot better.

Dreaming about holding a strange device or apparatus and figuring out how it works portends an unwanted revelation.

Dreaming about befriending a stranger sheds light on your habit of being a people pleaser. It shows that you would go to great lengths for making people like you. It's something which you should avoid. The fact that you see yourself in prison denotes the ties which bind you from achieving your true potential. You can only do well for yourself once you break free from the notions that you are not worthy enough. Try to do things which actually make you feel comfortable instead of being worried about what others may think about you.

The man in a suit at the beginning of the vision is likely there to set the tone of the dream and provide context. In this case, the suit should be considered a warning that something bad is about to happen. Your efforts to kill him, then, represent your denial or unwillingness to believe you are in trouble. The type of trouble seems to be related to feelings of limitation or restriction. Learning that you were kidnapped could reveal that you feel trapped, possibly by your parent's or other people's expectations. However, the money you receive suggests that not all is bad, as there are individuals in your life who understand you and are willing to help when you need them. The red doors that you lock at the end of the dream could symbolize closing the door on irrational emotions. You may be trying to find a more logical answer to your problems rather than responding emotionally or over-dramatically.
