If you’re wondering if psychic symbols differ from dream symbols, the answer is yes! If you get a psychic vision of a dog, the meaning can be different from when you dream about dogs. Why? Because of the fact a dog symbol has conscious meanings society has agreed upon. While dreams are based on the dreamer’s unique symbolism.

How Psychic Symbols Differ from Dream Symbols

Psychic symbols differ from dream symbols because it’s external. For example, a red traffic light means stop. If a client asks me if they should travel by airplane and I get a vision of a traffic light turning red, then it’s obvious the answer is no.

Other ways a psychic symbol can come through to me is from a deceased loved one, angel, or spirit guide. If I get a vision of a red rose, it usually means love, although the meaning could be for someone who likes to garden.

Here are two more symbols I often receive from my spirit guides:

1. A vision of a field hockey team is symbolic that a client needs to play the field and date other people. Or the person you’re interested in is playing the field.
2. Another symbol I have is a cartoon of a construction worker wearing a hard hat and holding a shovel. This means he digs you and is a positive answer for my client. I know it’s weird.

Another example is I hear song lyrics as a form of symbolism, which is why I’ve been called the Musical Psychic. Here are two examples:

1. I’ll hear the song from an old McDonald’s commercial, “You deserve a break today,” if a client needs to take some downtime.
2. Stevie Wonder’s song, “Don’t cha worry about a thing,” is a straightforward message for my clients to stop worrying and stay positive. FYI, it’s you in the song, but I hear it as cha.

How Dream Symbols Differ from Psychic Symbols

Symbols in dreams are usually from a dreamer’s subconscious, with the exception of visitation dreams and precognitive dreams. Therefore, they aren’t based on society’s universal meanings for symbols. Instead, they’re based on each individual unique symbolism. Occasionally, there are exceptions, but usually, a symbol’s meaning is different for each dreamer.

Why? Because a symbol’s meaning can change based on the dreamer’s emotions, life history, present issues, and more… And the same symbol in one dream can have a different meaning in another. I know it’s complicated.

Let’s use the two physical symbols I mentioned above.

Field Hockey Team

Here are examples of two different dreamers, and neither meanings are about dating.

1. Mary feels terrified in her dream of playing field hockey and doesn’t trust her team members. Upon awakening, she knows her dream is about her current work situation.
2. Paul’s dream about field hockey reminds him of the good times he had with friends when he used to play ice hockey. He decides to see if he can find them on social media.

Construction Worker with Shovel

Again, I’ll use two examples to show how they differ from my psychic message of he digs you.

1. Tim is feeling aggravated as he dreams about shoveling snow off his porch steps and sidewalk. He wakes up and looks out the window to find a foot of unpredicted snow in front of his home.
2. Sherry dreams about her ex-boyfriend digging a grave to bury her in. Her dream is validation that she made the right choice to break up with him.

Hopefully, these examples help you see how psychic symbols differ from dream symbols.

In Conclusion

Symbols are usually easier to interpret in psychic messages than in your dream symbols. However, it takes time and effort to figure out the difference. If you need help with either, please check out my services. Or visit my shop page.
