Psychological interpretation

Dream interpretation: When children begin to be curious about their bodies, an important developmental stage starts. In this stage, children understand the meaning of touch and the beauty of touching and being touched. If children are treated roughly and beaten, they may develop a fear of touch, leading to sexual disorders in adulthood. This initial mental trauma may fade but often reappears in dreams at appropriate times. When a person no longer fears exploring their body purely, they have truly grown.

Psychological analysis: In dreams, people can process their sexual desires. If one neglects their sexual instincts and does not respect this expression of vitality, the negative aspects of sexual desire will appear in dreams. Sexual desire in dreams compensates for the waking state, representing a desire to get closer to and connect with another person. It seems you want to find the lost part of yourself in the other person. The sexual partner in the dream symbolizes the closest distance you can achieve with the part of yourself you have lost. If you are complete, you may not have the desire for sexual union with others. Such sexual dreams convey messages that help you understand your needs.

Dreams of rape are related to sexual behavior and internal trauma. In children who have been sexually abused, rape scenes often appear in their dreams. However, it differs for adults with the same experience, as such scenes will only appear in dreams when you are ready to face the trauma.

Spiritual symbol: Sexual behavior is the highest expression of love and spirituality between two people or a selfish physical instinct.

Case analysis of dreaming about rape

Dream description: A woman deeply in love with her boyfriend dreamed of being raped by a man she knows in real life, who has a good family background and likes her. He said he liked her and that her past and having a boyfriend were not problems as long as she was with him. After a painful struggle, she agreed to marry him. He took her to see all his properties and transferred them to her name. Her family happily prepared for the wedding, and relatives asked her, "How did you deal with your ex-boyfriend?" She felt painful and wanted to hide her past. She told her relatives, "I am tired of this kind of relationship." In the end, she hugged her current husband and gratefully said, "Thank you for giving me marriage."

Dream interpretation: The dreamer has some suppressed desires. Although she deeply loves her boyfriend now, they may have arguments due to economic reasons or distance. Every woman desires her boyfriend to be talented and wealthy, but reality often falls short of ideals. Deep down, the dreamer longs for the life in the dream, and in dreams, thoughts are free from subjective control. Therefore, in dreams, suppressed thoughts burst out. As for the man in the dream, the dreamer need not care too much; the man proposing in the dream does not mean the dreamer has feelings for him or has changed her feelings for her boyfriend. In dreams, the subconscious mind will automatically find people or things that match reality to add to the dreamer's desired life. This dream represents the dreamer’s anxiety about the future and concerns about her relationship with her boyfriend. The dreamer should cherish the fate bestowed by heaven, let go of worries, and not let a dream affect her emotions or life.
