Why do i keep having dreams about a certain cave that doesn't exist?

Answer 1

It means that at some point, perhaps years ago, you saw photos or film about a cave that left a strong impression on your mind. This might have been something in a magazine (National Geographic, perhaps) or even a comic book. Yet again it might not even have been an image; a book such as J. R. R. Tolkein's The Hobbitcould have triggered your imagination to such an extent that your mind created its own images of this cave that appears in your dreams. In any case, the cave in your dreams is a symbol of something very specific to you. It might represent adventure, or anxiety, or your unconscious mind, or any number of other things.

You might figure it out for yourself by paying attention to when these dreams about the cave occur. Do they happen just before you have to take a big exam, or when you are trying out for a place in orchestra or on the ball team? Do they happen right after you've had a row with your boss or your best friend? Further clues might be found in the dream itself: how do you feel about the cave? Are you inside in the dark or do you see it from a distance? Do you feel the presence of something evil, or expect to find gold and jewels. All of these things tell you something about what these dreams mean to you.
