What does it mean to dream adultery?

Answer 1

If you dream about you having an affair with someone, it means that you have feelings for that person, that have to be hidden.

If you dream about your other half having an affair it highlights your fears of being alone and abandoned, and that you feel that you are lacking attention.

Dreams often express ideas and feelings through odd and uncomfortable symbols. A dream affair might not have any sexual meaning, but could illustrate the dreamer's concern about spending too much time, energy or effort on something other than the spouse / partner. For example, if the dreamer is putting in too much time at work, the subconscious mind could create a dream of "cheating" with a co-worker or supervisor, or something absurd, like an affair with a cell-phone. Too much time spent at church, or in sports or playing Video Games or anything else that takes the dreamer's time and attention away from the spouse can be portrayed as "cheating" in dreams.
