Dreams of weeping

  • I know we are not supposed to interpret dreams, but I’ve notice that I frequently have dreams that I am uncontrollably sobbing or weeping over my circuмstances in life. The last one I had struck me harder because in my dream my children were comforting me while I wept. 
    I do consider myself a cheerful person but have many personal problems that leave me terribly sad in my heart. Family problems you could say. 
    I also know that The Church is suffering and my heart is most definitely wounded for Her as well. 

    So I am wondering if there are others out there who sometimes weep in their dreams.

    I often research the meaning of my dreams using Dreammoods.com
    It uses psychological symbols and metaphors to interpret your dreams and has a vast data base on what a dream means.
    It is not prophesy or occult, it is based on psychology. In fact psychologists treating people for trauma often think dreams or nightmares are relevant and have a piece of the puzzle in them.
    For instance one time I dreamed of witches when I intended to go to Mass after not going there in a long time.
    I did not go. The meaning of the dream was that I had bad experiences with "cruel and heartless women".
    Another example. When I started posting on Cathinfo I dreamed I was in a passport office, and about something else which I cannot recall just now. The meaning of the dream was that I was "in a process of self discovery" and questioning my "identity" or something. It relates to whether or not I go back to being a practicing Catholic.
    I check my dreams all the time.
    Back when I was religious I used to have dreams of being in ancient monasteries and receiving communion often.

    I have no memory of having wept in a dream.
    I wonder why you say I know we are not supposed to interpret dreams?

    If you have the same dream repeatedly, I would surmise that for some reason you are not getting a message.

    Dreams come for a reason. We usually don't understand them, but I have had dreams that when I woke up I knew immediately why I received that dream. There was an observation, and a change I had to make in my life. I only apply this to myself and not to you. Just food for thought.

    I would balk at having anybody else but my husband analyse my dreams, since he knows me better than anyone.

    Here are some articles that you might find helpful.

  • Let me guess. Family members are not going to the SSPX and that make you sad.
    Doing sins. Not praying. Not like Catholic church.
    If so, what does their practice of religion mean in your relationship to them?
    You want to sit near them in the benches and tell them how to say rosary?
    What makes you think you will say it better than them if so.
    What makes you think their ignorance is not an excuse. The faith is not self evidently true.
    It is belief in unsubstantiated claims. The appeal of it is the moral lifestyle.
    A lot of Catholics are not moral.
    Why it matter. Why you not love them for who they are.
    If you heap conditional love on them, contingent on adherent faith, you are disowning them.
    You are placing a middle man between you and your own children. The middle man is the church.
    My family did that with me. They put a middle man between me and them.
    I never had a relationship with them afterwards.
    The children will only have resentment for you, and they will lose all love for you, if you are known to place some abstract principle or institution or argument they don't understand before them as a condition for the relationship.
    If someone asked me do I love my family, I would say no. If they died tomorrow I would think I was a free man.
    Free of that use of the middle man they put between me and them.
    Do not put any intermediary person group or ideology between you and your kids.
    You cry in your dreams holding them because you want to communicate something to them.
    Why can't you just communicate it. Why does it need to come with these add on coercive appeals to believe in some person group or ideology or argument. It doesn't.
    When you sin, is your middle man ideology, person, group, argument, like a brick wall that prevents you?
    No it isin't. It vanishes like it didn't exist. The same with good actions.
    It is only an impediment in your mind.
    Your children begin with a natural genetic loyalty to their own family and to nature.
    It is built into their genes. They cannot resist it unless they have a damn good reason.
    The post above sounds like things you may have experienced yourself or someone else you know perhaps, but it wouldn't apply to me at all thanks. Hard to guess people’s situation from an anonymous post lol

    Anyways I was wanting to know if others had experienced what I explained on the OP

    Thank you I will definitely check that out. I forgot that Don Bosco has amazing dreams and I always try to study subjects from the Catholic perspective. 
    I had heard or read somewhere a long time ago that we as Catholics are not supposed to interpret dreams, but I guess I’ll be looking more into this. 
    God bless!

  • I mentioned to my priest a few weeks ago that I dreamed he received a promotion and moved to another parish, and he said that we aren't supposed to pay any attention to our dreams.

  • That priest did not  address your questioning of dreams.  To say, just disregard, teaches you nothing.  And chances are your dream just might be true. Ha!

    I had a friend who had a dream of a priest that was controversial at the time.  Her dream was that he said something with his head turned and then he turned it the other way and he contradicted what he said.  I told this friend, ah, he his 2 faced.  It turned out he was, supporting the ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖs.

    Just as well St Joseph paid attention to his dreams. See Matthew chapters 1 and 2.

  • I have dreamed of white snakes slithering close to me several times over the past couple of years. I decided to look up any possible meaning and what was read said that white snakes means big changes, or need of it, is about to come. I find it unsurprising, because as of the end of 2016 my life feels upside down and there have been so much change in life situations and contentions as to what I really even believe...

    As Nadir said, there is probably something more to a dream if you are having it repeatedly.
        My Grandma, her sister and my Great-Grandma had dreams called "premonitions" and had them quite frequently, from what I understand.
    Many people say "For the Honor and Glory of God!" but, what they should say is "For the Love, Glory and Honor of God". - Fr. Paul of Moll

  • A long time ago about 1992, I had a dream of white asps in a moat around my home.  The snakes could not reach the house.  The snakes were as large as a man.  I went to touch one and my soul let me know, I was crazy to even get near one.  

    At that time I was reading federal grants to find out who was bringing sex education into the state of AZ when it was against the laws.  I found out by reading the grants that it was the dioceses!
