"Terrorists" it dreams: Understanding dreams is not so difficult. In practice dream symbols translate into certain words within the English language. For instance a dream with "terrorists" in it may simply translate into a phrase like "phobia" and the dream capture an everyday thought such as "I am stressing out about my meeting tomorrow. I have terrible phobias about meeting up with people. They leave me panic stricken". Dreams will link to thoughts which can be translated into quotes like this. Once you can think of a quote which links to your like this you start to really touch on the heart of a dreams meaning.
Keywords linked to "terrorist" or "terror" in dreams
In practice "terrorists" in dreams has several symbolic meanings. Here is the full list. Try to write down quotes which capture your key feelings right now but which also feature the words listed below.
- "Stressful" (Did something big happen yesterday which you cannot stop thinking about? Did something shocking happen yesterday? Did something nerve racking happen the day before?)

Dreams are in the here and now which means that any analysis is made much more easier. Many people make the mistake of trying to link a dream to something in the long and distant past. So any analysis inevitably links a dream to something vague and deep in the past and too general to have any real meaning. In this case a dream where there is "terrorists" can simply translate into a word like "Stressful". Always try to translate a dreams meaning into a quote about something very specific. For instance, in the case of the example just given the meaning could link to a thought like "I am really stressed out about my exams. I cannot stop thinking about it. My whole future depends on it."
What immediately comes to mind will usually give you the answer to your dreams meaning. Dreams are in the here and now because they are part of the process whereby we transfer thoughts and emotions from short term into long term memory. Simply look for associations with the symbols in your dream and think of what comes into your mind. When you make a connection look for other associations which will help you understand how your mind stores intuitive thoughts.
