Meaning of Dreams about Spirits -
Conventional Dream Interpretation for dreams incorporating Spirits.

Spirits: To see or be part of a séance in your dream, represents your intuition and awareness. It suggests that you need to have more insight into some situation. You need to look beyond what is in front of your and look at the big picture. You may be trying to assess hidden secrets and information within your unconscious.
Animals: This is a huge category, and I will only be naming the few that I have come across. Animals in general can be speaking to your drives and feelings about events and people with the usual social controls lifted. I have had dreams with animals nurturing their young and have interpreted this to mean something about my parenting role or relationship with my children. Native Americans assigned Totem Spirits to a variety of animals with the nature of the animal representing the nature of the spirit. These totems would watch out over a person or group of people such as a family or tribe, sometimes for generations. Some people think that totems and spirit guides and witches familiars are very similar in nature.

• To dream of spirits represents memories or issues that are lingering from the past. It may also reflect memories of people from your past. The essence of who someone was.
Music: Music or a musician in your dream indicates you have the ability to channel. You can communicate with discarnate spirits. If you accept that you are a body with a soul then communication with spirit is not so alien. It is merely one soul communicating with another.
Bra: Dreaming that you are wearing a bra, indicates support and protection. Perhaps you need to have your spirits uplifted. Alternatively, it may represent your nurturing side and maternal feelings. Dreaming that you are not wearing a bra, demonstrates that you have no discipline or control. Alternative, it may reflect your sexual nature.
Evil: A dream involving an evil atmosphere or evil spirits foretells that you will encounter obstacles to your current ambitions. You would be well-advised to consider a change of direction or plans.

Orca: Orcas are dolphins and dolphins symbolize channeling in a dream. A channel is someone who can communicate directly with spirits and Angels. Dolphins and whales mean this because they are mammals that live in the ocean. In dreams the ocean represents spirituality, so here we have an air breathing mammal that has adapted enough to travel into the spirit world. The type of dolphin or whale involved is not important, although orcas are killer whales. In this context, the killer portion of the name shows the fear the dreamer has with regard to talking with the dead. Also their strong black and white color indicates a difficulty the dreamer has with regard to accepting spiritual communication. In essence they must overcome their black and white attitude that tells them things are either good or evil. When you have this attitude it is difficult to open your mind to something new. This could be due to religious doctrine. -

Spirit: A spirit in a dream is exactly that – a spirit. If you can see them in your dream you have the ability to see spirits while awake. While this may sound scary, with a little education, it becomes a blessing. Since you can see them you do not have to take it on blind faith that there is more to life than what we can physically see. Seeing spirits in dreams is sometimes, but not always, indicative of being clairvoyant. It is highly indicative of being a channel but your connection for dialogue may be something other than clairvoyance.

Ship: Your transportation through life relating to spiritual, emotional and/or financial matters. They are interconnected since you can’t be in high spirits when you lack the necessities of life.
