Explosive in dreams:Understanding dreams is not so difficult. In practice dream symbols translate into certain words within the English language. For instance a "Bomb" dream may simply translate into the words "Breaking point" and the dream may link to tension at work which has left you at "Breaking point". The dream is expressing the same thought but just in the language of symbolism.

Full list of keywords
In practice explosives have several symbolic meanings. Here is the full list. Look to see if any of these are relevant right now.
- "At breaking point" (Can you simply not take any more? Have you had constant pressure and now you are about to break? If so then the explosives is symbolic of this rage inside you. You maybe warning yourself that you cannot take it anymore and your about to "Explode".)
- "Temper" (We often use the term "An explosive temper" to describe someone's ability to explode in rage. That's a very good metaphor which applies equally in dreams.)
- "Provocative" (Who has been very provocative and nasty? Who can test anyone's patience? )
- "Prejudice" (Do you feel near breaking point because of prejudice against you? Are you likely to explode in rage? )
- "Health and safety fears" (Dreams can sometimes be about specific fears. Do you need to remind yourself about some flammable material in your house?)
- "Substantial opposition" (Has someone reacted badly to some plan or idea? Has there been an "Explosion" of opposition?)
- "A terrible argument" (Many dreams simply tell you about the day before - so if there was some argument then surely the dream is about that explosive situation.)
- "Explode an idea" (Are you trying to shoot down an idea?)
- "Something is lost or gone" (Have you just lost some relationship very quickly? Was something suddenly lost yesterday?)
- "Destructive" (Explosive dremas can tap into "Destructive people" and "Destructive forces". How would you use the word "Destructive" right now? Think of phrases like "She is so self destructive" or "This new system is causing so many problems. Its destructive and is causing friction." your dream maybe linking to conceptual feelings like these.)
here is how to interpret a dream. In practice dreams symbols link together certain conceptual thoughts and feelings. Explosions link together with "Temper", "Destructive", "Volatile" and "Quickly lost". So any of these can be symbols for the other. So look through the list of phrases and words which link to this dream symbol. Then think how you might use these words in real life right now - as most dreams link directly to the here and now. For instance, if you have recently been thinking "I have got to control my temper as I almost lost it last night" then "Explosives" could be a symbol for your "Temper". We can guess that the dream is a "Warning" - telling the dreamer to control his or her temper. But do not jump to conclusions as dreams may have complex meanings. It's likely that a dream links to a crucial thought or feeling. So if you were thinking "Losing my temper is the only way to get them to do anything" then the "Explosives" are still a symbol of "Temper" but we can guess that the meaning is different. Instead of warning against a "Destructive" temper the dream maybe noting the positive effects of losing your temper. The dream simply uses "Explosives" as a symbol for "Temper." in practice the symbol can be used in many complex and varied ways. So think of the words that link to "Explosives" such as "Temper", "Destructive" and "Volatile" and try to use these in any way and any context.
