Night
To dream of experiencing night time represents a sense of being enveloped by a lack of safety, feelings that nobody is listening, or the unknown. A sense that nothing happening in a new situation has to see itself being safe. Feelings of danger, fear, vulnerability, confusion, obstacles, or setbacks. A lack of clarity. There is an issue in your life that you can't figure out, prevents you from moving forward, or that holds you back.
Nighttime dreams may also reflect situations that aren't positive anymore, or that have taken a turn for the worse. Something isn't good as it used to be. Unpleasant feelings about something good in your life coming to an end, and feeling scared that you don't have answers when you need them the most.
Night time dreams where the scene suddenly changes to night may reflect waking life situations that have suddenly taken a turn for the worse and left you experiencing your worst fears. These dreams may be a manifestation of your subconscious mind trying to process and deal with the uncertainty and negativity of your current situation. Feeling that you have been "left in the dark" with a negative situation.
Example: A man dreamed of trying to navigate a field at night. In waking life he was having difficult trying to get to know new people after enrolling in college. In this case, the night time may have reflected his feelings about lacking clarity about how to socially integrate himself, feeling the fear of being alone, or not knowing who to trust.
Example 2: A man dreamed of experiencing night time. In waking life he had become very socially isolated while hiding an illness. In this case, night time may have reflected the man's sense of isolation and loneliness due to his illness. He may also felt that he wasn't safe while being sick and alone.
Example 3: A man dreamed of day turning into night. In waking life he was experiencing an altercation with enemies that wanted to ruin his life. In this case, night may have reflected his feelings of danger, fear, and vulnerability in the face of the threat posed by his enemies. The sudden shift from day to night in the dream may have also symbolized a sudden turn of events in his waking life, where he felt as though things had taken a negative turn and he was left in the dark about what to do next.
