You want change, but you don’t know where or when, or how to go about it. Things will become clearer.

This dream can also suggest that you are a great listener. People come to you with their problems, and you always manage to ease their burdens just a little. More often than not, you’re willing to help.

This dream can also be a pun on “barring” yourself from doing something. You may have created too many limitations for you to live freely. Or, you’ve wanted to do something for a while, but you’ve never gotten round to it.

A messy basement in your dream can indicate that you’ve lost control over your life, and you feel inadequate as a result.

In waking life, you may need the help of people you wouldn’t normally ask or people you barely know (or even like!). This is your subconscious’s way of reminding you of that. If you try to avoid asking, you may hold up your own progress.

Dreaming of a basketball points to needing to take the initiative. Things won’t wait around for you, you have to take them. Go after what you want if it’s in reason for you to do so.

Dreaming of being unable to find a bathroom indicates that you’re having trouble being honest with yourself or someone else. You’re in denial, or you don’t have the right words to express how you feel. Something is holding you back.

Dreaming of having to pay before you can go to the bathroom reflects how hesitant you are when it comes to being honest about your problems.

You’ve barely scraped the surface of your potential, and you could do with harnessing more of it. Are you looking for shortcuts where there aren’t any?

This dream can be a unity between your unconscious and your conscious mind, where you’ll wake up feeling refreshed or with a new perspective. 

The state of the water can mirror the wellbeing of your unconscious mind, and any issues that still need resolving. 

The weather and the state of the beach can reflect your waking mind, and how you feel everything is going. Consider if there’s a disparity between the two, and how you might find a solution.

If you dream of looking toward the sea, you long for things to change, or you’re wondering what changes the future will bring you. You welcome any opportunities the future might bring you.

If you have a beard in waking life, but you dream of a bare chin, you want to be honest with someone. You long to tell them how you feel.

If you dream you have a beard, but you don’t in waking life, this suggests you want to hide your feelings, either because you don’t want to be judged, or because you are trying to deceive someone.

If you dream of sleeping in your own bed, this dream provides you with some restoration away from waking life’s stressors. It can also suggest that you long for peace, or domestic bliss, or an all-consuming love. 

If you dream of waking up in an unknown bed, this dream’s message is that every action you take has a consequence, and it can refer to “lying in the bed you’ve made” or putting a drawn-out issue “to bed”, where you can finally move on.

If the bed in your dream was unmade, you are being careless in your relationships, or secrets will soon come to light. If the bed was made, this represents a strong sense of security within your life.

Dreaming of searching for a bed can indicate that waking life’s problems have left you exhausted, and you need to recharge. Alternatively, you are having trouble accepting yourself for who you are, or you feel you cannot express your sexuality or your intimate needs.

Dreaming of lying on your bed and then floating into the air indicates that you feel helpless in waking life. You feel disconnected from your emotions and your loved ones. If you’ve been particularly loud about your opinions lately, you need to tone it down.

Or, this dream is telling you to stop trying to control every tiny thing. Consider the phrase “beggars can’t be choosers”. 

If you dream of helping a beggar, this represents how you will overcome your long-standing anxieties or insecurities. You may also be in a great place to be able to help others. 

Begin

This dream is telling you that you need to push past what’s holding you back, and finally act. 

Behead

Dreaming of you or someone else being beheaded mirrors poor decisions that you’ve come to regret. It can indicate that you refuse to face up to the truth or your fears of being inadequate. 

You feel that if you don’t look at a situation, it doesn’t exist, and you then don’t have to confront it.

If you dream of a snake being beheaded, this can either point to a refusal to face your fears, or facing them head on, depending on how you felt in this dream. 

Behind

Dreaming of being behind someone indicates that you have someone’s back. You’re there for them when they need you. 

If you felt bad during this dream, it can also suggest that someone that you love isn’t considering your feelings in a situation which concerns you, or they don’t realize how something has affected you. 

This dream can also represent your unconscious thoughts and feelings coming to the surface.

Dreaming of being left behind mirrors how you feel in waking life. You may fear that you cannot keep up with those around you, or that you will eventually be left behind as your loved ones’ lives enter different stages.

This dream can also point to a misconception about yourself, where you feel you aren’t capable of handling something, or you’ve forgotten that your potential is very nearly limitless. 

If you dream of leaving something behind or someone behind you, your subconscious is telling you to stop concentrating on the past, and focus on the present moment. 

Believing

Dreaming of no one believing you suggests you suffer from feelings of inadequacy. 

This can be a self-fulfilling prophecy, as people tend to treat you in accordance with how you act. If you look like you are insecure, that’s how they will treat you. 

Try to look confident, and see how differently people treat you. 

This dream also indicates that you’re questioning your recent decisions. 

Bell

Dreaming of hearing a bell is a warning, or a call to rise to an occasion. You may have picked up on a big event coming into your life, and this dream serves to prepare you for it.

If the bell doesn’t stop ringing (see also Ringing Dream Meaning), this is anxiety bleeding from your waking life into your dream. 

A silver bell in your dream represents how you’re trying to limit negativity from affecting your life or your mindset. It can also represent the holiday season.

Bellow

Using bellows in your dream indicates a hard period in the future, where you’ll have to work non-stop in order to get something done.

This dream can be your subconscious telling you to trust in your instincts, and what your gut has to say about a situation or someone. 

Dreaming of a pregnant belly indicates that repressed emotions will soon surface. You can’t keep them locked down forever.

Below

Dreaming of seeing something below you can reflect waking life where you are judging others too harshly. You can’t know all the circumstances. This dream can suggest that you feel superior to someone or a situation that requires your input.

If that doesn’t sound right, dreaming of below can also signify exploring your innermost thoughts and feelings. 

Belt

It points to moral struggles that are preventing you from making progress while you try to decide the best course of action.
