your dream denotes that there is something very wrong in your life
that you need to stand up to or fix. You may be choosing to permanently
suffer by never asking for help. Feeling that someone or something
never wants you to feel good ever again. Evil or jealousy that feels
intentionally imposed on you. Feeling cursed forever. Feeling let
down for the rest of your life. Behavior that is so awful it finds
every reason to never let go, embarrass you, or make you think that
everything you ever did in your life is your fault.
Satan in a dream may reflect one of your worst problems. Something
that keeps you in state of mind that feels like hell. A powerful tormenting
problem or fear.
Positively, dreaming of Satan might reflect a fear of temptation or
a struggle with choosing between right and wrong. It may represent
your attempt to resist bad influences or avoid choices that you'll
regret. Temptation of power and success that goes against the dreamer's
moral values. Feelings about yourself challenging or being at odds
with old fashioned conservative values.
Alternatively, Satan can represent your own rebelliousness or refusal
to conform to certain rules or standards. You may be going against
the grain or deliberately acting out of line. It may also indicate
feelings of guilt, shame, or self-reproach for actions you've taken
or thoughts you've had. Your own enjoyment or insatiable need to hurt
others. Feeling good trying to permanently keep someone else away
from happiness.
Example: A 16 year-old young boy dreamed of seeing Satan sitting on
a throne with dead trees at his sides. In waking life, he was very
good-looking and suddenly developed an illness that caused his hair
to fall out. He felt that his life was over and that he would permanently
be an ugly loser who would never be happy every again. In this case,
Satan may have reflected his overwhelming feelings of despair, frustration,
and fear due to the sudden change in his physical appearance. The
sight of Satan on the throne could symbolize his perceived loss of
control and the overpowering negativity he was experiencing. He may
have felt tormented by his situation, akin to feeling ruled by an
evil, unstoppable force, accentuating his sense of hopelessness and
fears about never regaining his former happiness and self-esteem.
Example 2: Giuseppi Tartini dreamed that the Devil came to him in
his sleep, sat on the end of his bed, and played the violin for what
eventually became the musical piece "The Devil's Trill Sonata."
In this case, the Devil playing the music may have reflected Tartini's
feelings of being inspired by a dream that was so incredible he could
never truly believe in himself again as a real talented musician because
the dream did all the real creative work. The dream indicates that
Giuseppi Tartini prided himself on being a professional musician and
had issues with respecting himself as original due to the strength
of the dream's inspiration. The dreams shows that God's creative inspiration
is so powerful with that it can make believing in yourself ever again
difficult because you are only a listener while God is the genius
you copied from.
Example 3: A woman dreamed of hearing the name "Devil" and
secretly thinking about Hitler when police officers came up to her
to inform her that a thought control machine had read her mind and
caught her comparing the Devil to Hitler. In waking life, she was
living in Nazi Germany under the increasing repressive laws of the
Nazi regime. In this case, the devil may have reflected how she equated
the power and control exerted by Hitler as being similar to Satan
because it felt evil with a sense of never wanting her to believe
in herself ever again.
Example 4: A woman dreamed of seeing a baby with devil eyes. In waking
life, she was pregnant and was beginning to think about the pregnancy
realistically. The need to grow up and live her entire life in a mature
way may have felt scary to her or that the baby would never allow
her to enjoy being young ever again. In this case, the "devil
eyes" may have reflected her perception of pregnancy as overwhelmingly
negative, fearful, and irreversible because it would ruin her youth
with the impending responsibility of caring for her child and never
allow her to believe in herself ever again.
Example 5: A woman dreamed that her daughter was Satan. In waking
life, she was living in her childhood home with her husband. This
childhood home was a place where she was sexually abused as a child.
She felt that the house was evil because she felt forced to live in
it with her husband due to finances. In this case, her daughter being
Satan may have reflected her feelings about the home forcing her to
live in the torment of remembering her past while requiring looking
after, similar to her daughter.

or shame. Your belief that religious dogma doesn't make sense or doesn't
apply to your life. Feelings about seeking salvation being a waste
of time. Questioning why bad things happen to you in waking life when
you feel it's not supposed to, while feeling you need an explanation.
Naively believing that if you do something all the time that you will
never have a problem.
Example:
A woman dreamed of reading scripture with God talking to her, but
never being able to remember what God is saying. In waking life she
wanted salvation. In this case the scripture may have reflected her
uncertainty or doubts about finding the answers she was looking for,
despite her strong desire for spiritual fulfillment.
Example
2: A man dreamed of being lectured by his mother about scripture related
to homosexuality. In waking life, he had recently deleted all the
porn off his computer and was trying to overcome his addiction to
it. In this case, the homosexual scripture from the Bible may have
reflected his feelings about fundamental morality regarding porn that
views it as difficult to accept immoral behavior. In summary, he felt
that porn was metaphorically "gay" to keep watching if he
believed in himself as a good Christian and need to be serious about
sticking to his values to stay away from it.

way.
Dreaming of a
dead loved one may possibly have no connection to their death at all
and simply reflect an aspect of your personality based on the memories
or feelings that stand out the most about them. For example, if a
person dreams of their dead father it may simply reflect an issue
they have with their conscience or decision they made.
Example: A woman
dreamed of seeing the spirit of her 14 year-old daughter moving towards
her. In waking life she felt that her relationship with her daughter
was permanently changed because she had moved in with her grandmother
