Zhou Yi Dream Interpretation

In dreams, fighting, like in real life, often involves conflicts, whether they are conflicts of interest with others, conflicts of various value concepts, or the rebellious conflicts of adolescence against parents. Various conflicts may be manifested in dreams through fighting, accompanied by many negative emotional experiences such as anger, tension, and anxiety. From the process of conflict in dreams, we can see the dreamer's attitude towards conflict and the behavior pattern of handling conflict. By looking at several such dreams, you will find that different handling methods bring completely different psychological feelings to the person involved.

In dreams, fighting represents the conflict between two different value concepts.

Fighting may also symbolize oppression and resistance, competitive relationships, overcoming one's weaknesses, and more.

In dreams, fighting symbolizes overcoming difficulties.

Fighting may also symbolize friendship, exercise, and mutual promotion.

How can there be such a good fight? If you often watch animal programs on TV, you must be familiar with the sight of two little bears or two little tigers fighting. They are not fighting to the death but have a sense of proportion and do not hurt each other. You might even laugh at such a cute scene. However, they are very serious; they give their all, and while training their fighting abilities, they also build intimate relationships. If your dream features such an atmosphere of fighting, you will not feel anger or fear.

Another pleasant symbol of fighting is sex. In many folk dirty jokes, the process of sexual behavior is compared to 'a physical fight.' This kind of fighting is different from other fights in that it brings you a pleasurable emotional experience. The surrounding scene during the fight will not be gloomy or dark, and the color tone will mostly lean towards warm colors.

Many people also have dreams where they fight an opponent but cannot hurt or defeat them because the opponent is often themselves, representing ideas they do not want to admit or another aspect of their personality. In short, it is something in your mind. After having such dreams repeatedly, you will realize that fighting cannot solve the problem, and 'turning enemies into friends,' with mutual understanding and acceptance, is the best way to resolve inner conflicts.

Case Analysis of Dreaming of Fighting

Example 1

Dream Description: In the dream, I was talking with two female leaders. Both leaders criticized me harshly, and I listened in silence, filled with grievances and anger. One of the leaders became more and more excited, even coming up to push me with her arm. I kept retreating, feeling more and more aggrieved and angry. Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore, and holding a sharp knife, I slashed upward at the other's face...

Dream Interpretation: This dream shows that this woman's behavior pattern is to retreat and endure in the face of strong power, making her easily bullied by strong power. However, once her repressed anger explodes, it surpasses the initial amount. Her angle of attack is defensive rather than offensive, indicating that her attack power is used for self-defense rather than active attack. The fighting in this dream symbolizes the oppression of strong power and the resistance against it. As the saying goes, 'Even a rabbit will bite when cornered.' However, think about it: if she had not remained silent at the beginning and had argued reasonably for herself, what would the result of this fight have been?

Example 2

Dream Description: In the dream, I first fought with top martial arts experts and defeated them. On my way back from victory, I suddenly felt that someone seemed to be lying in ambush. So, in the dream, I threw a stone to test the way and placed a paper figure in front of me, driving it with my internal strength to walk ahead. Sure enough, a large number of ambushed enemy experts rushed out and smashed the paper figure. Realizing something was wrong, the enemies turned around and chased me, and I ran away...

Dream Interpretation: This dream reflects the dreamer's attitude towards life crises. At first, he adopts a frontal confrontation approach. Later, worried that the enemy might use tricks, he uses a tactic himself. This tactic enrages the enemy, making their hostility grow. The dreamer then switches to avoiding the conflict. Here, fighting symbolizes overcoming difficulties.

Example 3

Dream Description: This is a dream of a man. In the dream, he saw beautiful flowers blooming in someone else's private garden and wanted to enter the garden to pick them. Just as he was about to enter, a man in a black suit came up to stop him. The dreamer felt very angry and said, 'It's not your garden. How can you stop me?' The man in the black suit still wouldn't allow it, so they started fighting...

Dream Interpretation: In this case, the flowers symbolize women. 'Picking flowers in someone else's private garden' means wanting to possess a woman who belongs to someone else. The man in the black suit represents the dreamer's superego. The suit symbolizes formality and restraint, while the black color conveys repression and seriousness. Therefore, in dreams, the superego often wears a suit or similar formal attire in dark colors, rarely in light colors because light colors aren't imposing enough. The superego in this dream does not allow the dreamer to engage in immoral behavior, hence the conflict. This dream's fighting represents a conflict between two different value concepts.
