But what if there's more to them than just stories we tell others, or write about after?

但如果夢不僅僅是我們醒來後跟別人講或寫下來的故事呢？

Although there's no scientific evidence to prove that dreams hold special meaning, for many years, they have been studied to promote better self-awareness and to help us understand what's bothering us in our everyday lives.

雖然沒有科學根據去證明夢境代表著特別的含意，但他們已被研究多年，希望可以促進人們提高自我認知，並幫助我們理解日常生活中困擾著我們的事。

According to Suzanne Bergman, a social worker and dream specialist, "Dreams are a universal language, creating often elaborate images out of emotional concepts."

根據 Suzanne Bergman 所說，一位社工與夢境專家，「夢是一種國際語言，將情緒具象化成縝密的圖象。」

Have you been recognizing certain themes you frequently dream about?

你有注意過你很常夢見一些特定的場景嗎？

Here are seven common dream meanings.

這裡有 7 種常見的夢境啟示！

One, being lost or trapped.

第一，迷路或者被困住。

This is a common dream many people have.

這是一個很常見、很多人都做過的夢。

Being lost or trapped usually means you're unsure about what step to take next from a particular circumstance in real life.

迷路或者被困住，通常代表你不確定你在真實世界中一些特定情況下應該要做什麼樣的選擇。

People who dream about getting lost in the woods, a large building, or any maze-like structure in general, often feel overwhelmed and can't seem to find a way out.

夢見在樹林、巨大的建築物、或在任何像迷宮的結構中迷路的人，時常覺得不知所措且似乎遍尋不著門路。

This reflects the mental, physical, financial, or emotional burdens they're experiencing in real life.

這反映了現實生活中經歷的心理、心理、經濟或情緒上的負擔。

Two, missed opportunities.

第二，錯失的機會。

Do you ever dream about missing public transportation, such as a bus, train, plane, or taxi?

你有夢到過沒趕上大眾運輸工具，例如公車、火車、飛機或計程車嗎？

Often, people who dream about such scenarios tend to miss them only by a fraction of a second.

而且人們通常夢見只差零點幾秒就能趕到了。

This can also pertain to scenarios where you dream about being late for a job interview, performance, or special event.

夢見工作面試、表演、或在特殊場合遲到也可以歸類到這個情況。

In real life, these dreams may reflect the regrets you have for not going after what you wanted.

現實生活中，這些夢反映了你為自己沒有去做真正想做的事而感到懊悔。

Whether that means missing out on seeing your favorite band perform live, or not applying for your dream job on time.

不論是指錯過了你最喜歡的樂團的現場演出，或者沒有準時申請你夢想的工作。

Three, car troubles.

第三，車禍。

People who dream about these scenarios usually find themselves in or near a car vehicle.

人們夢見這種場景時通常發現自己在車中或者車子附近。

They can either be the driver or the passenger when they experience a brake failure, flat tire, or getting hit by another car.

他們遇到煞車失靈、爆胎、或被其他車撞時可以是駕駛或者乘客。

In real life, this typically means that you feel like you don't have control over a certain situation, or you might be headed for a trouble in the future.

在現實生活中，這通常指你覺得你無法掌控特定的情況，或者覺得自己在朝未來可能發生的麻煩前進。

Four, failing a test.

第四，考試被當。

Contrary to what it sounds like, people who dream of this scenario are usually no longer in school.

相較於前提所說，夢見這種狀況的人們通常已經不是學生。

Common dream scenarios involve having trouble finding the test room, being unprepared from lack of studying, or missing equipment to complete it.

常見的夢見包括找不到考場、沒有準備就上考場、或有考試要帶的東西沒帶。

They indicate that you are feeling tested in real life, which makes you anxious about what your future holds.

這指出你在生活中覺得受到挑戰，你對於未來感到焦慮。

Five, being chased.

第五，被追趕。

This is a common dream people with anxiety often have.

這是焦慮的人很常有的夢。

They usually dream about being chased by an animal, person, or something you cannot readily identify.

他們通常會夢見自己被動物、人或你無法確定是什麼的東西追。

In real life, it means that they are trying to run away from a certain situation, or it could be an emotion they are not ready to confront yet.

在現實生活中，這是指他們正試著逃離某種情況，或者他們還沒有準備好要面對一些事情。

Whether it's grief, or a breakup.

不論是悲傷，或者分手。

Six, tooth decay.

第四，牙齒衰敗。

Have you ever dreamed about reaching into your mouth, only to feel your teeth fall out, or that there is a missing gap?

你有沒有夢過手伸到嘴巴裡，結果感覺你的牙齒掉了，或者有牙齒不見了呢？

This indicates that you may feel insecure in real life, unattractive, or not good enough.

這指出你在生活中可能感到不安、不吸引人或不夠完美。

Whether it pertains to school, your work life, or romantic relationship.

不論是跟學校，工作或感情方面。

You may also have a fear of being embarrassed or judged by others.

你可能還有被他人譏諷或評價的恐懼。

Seven, falling or sinking.

第七，墜落或溺水。

People who dream of this scenario often find themselves falling from a high building, or sinking into an ocean.

夢到這個情境的人通常夢見自己從高樓上墜落，或溺斃在海裡。

They usually feel helpless and overwhelmed.

他們通常感到無助或不知所措。

It's a common misconception to believe that having those dreams mean a foreshadow to your own death.

夢到這種夢而預告自己的死亡是一個常見的誤解。

But in reality, they indicate your fear of falling, or that you're not content with where you are in life.

但現實生活中，這指出你害怕下墜，或你對於你人生的定位感到不踏實。

You may need to carve a new path, or make some new choices to help you find meaning again.

你可能需要找一條新道路，或者做些新的決定來幫助你重新找到自己的人生主旨。
