THE DREAM The following are short summaries of dream which all contain 'losing something'. I have tried best to isolate the symbolic meaning of 'losing something' in each dream.

A dream about a friend who had lost her shoes was linked to that same friend having lots of bad luck recently. She was getting overwhelmed by it all.

A dream about the dreamer losing her purse was linked to the dreamer being fired due to ill health. Losing her purse was possibly a symbol of her losing her income and her life falling into chaos.

A dream about a lost invitation took place as the dreamer had split up with her partner. It had been quite hurtful. She now felt shut out and her self esteem was affected. The lost invitation was possibly a symbol of her losing friends due to the breakup.

A dream where the dreamer had lost a coin took place after the dreamer had forgotten his laptop. He felt totally lost without it - he did not realise how essential it was to him.

A dream about losing a ring linked to the dreamer feeling left out by her husband. She sensed that something was wrong and wanted to talk through whatever problems he had. She felt that the whole purpose of marriage was to share problems.

A dream about waking up and losing something special was linked to the dreamer feeling very emotional when waking. She was stuck in a routine and needed to seek out new experiences.

A dream about losing his freedom linked to the dreamer starting a new job. He had now lost much of his former freedom.

A dream about her fathers body guard losing her body guard was linked to the dreamer not getting along with him. She was aware that if she said something about him breaking the rules he might lose his job. The dream was about her sensing that he did not trust her any more.
