Crowd

A number of possible interpretations for dreams of crowds suggest themselves. These range from a need for a feeling of unity or belonging; a sense of suffocation, feeling stifled or crowded out; a desire for anonymity and to blend into the crowd; a sense of feeling like a stranger, that you are misplaced or too much going on in your life. The details of your dream should help provide the meaning. In dreams, crowds can also express how well you relate to other people, particularly in a social sense. They may also indicate how well you hide yourself, hide aspects of yourself or attempt to avoid responsibility

A large crowd can suggest information overload, a crowd of problems or finding yourself in a situation that overwhelms you. A dream of feeling at one with a crowd—such as watching or singing along at a match or game in a sport’s arena—may have been emphasizing the security you derive from being with like-minded people. If, however, you do not feel at one with the crowd, your dreaming mind may be urging you to assert your individuality.

If you transformed into a cheerleader, your unconscious may have been highlighting the euphoria that you feel in waking life from being at one with the people around you. The denser and more claustrophobic the crowd in your dream, the greater and more demanding the problems in your waking life may seem; if you find a way out of the crowd or take control of it, your dream interpretation will be positive.

If you are trampled down in the crowd in your dream, this suggests that you need a great deal of help. Perhaps you are working too hard, caring for a sick relative or the problems you are facing are too overwhelming to deal with alone.

In dreams, unknown people in crowds or gatherings often represent aspects of yourself, such as your attitudes, strengths and anxieties. As social relationships are important for personal well-being and survival, such dreams also help you clarify your way of interacting with society in general. Are you in contact with the people in your dreams? Do you conform or rebel? Do you like the people in your dream and what do they mean to you? Questions like these will throw light on the meaning of your dream. Such dreams can also depict what public opinion thinks of you, so pay attention to the reaction of the people in the crowds.

Crowd

Feeling crowded out; public opinion; one’s feelings about people in general. Lost in a crowd: feeling without per­sonal direction; confusion on meeting many opinions; desire not to stand out. Attacked by crowd: fear of public opinion; feeling one’s own angry urges as threatening. Talking to, lead­ing, or pan of crowd at a central event: an impulse or idea which unifies many pans of one’s own nature—as the many aspects of our own being, such as visual impressions, sensual­ity, thoughts, musical sense, religious feelings, sexual drive, intuition, fear, ambition, hunger, our desire for acclaim, the sadist in us and so on, constitute a crowd. How we relate to the crowd: suggests our relationship with our own inner com­munity and the external public. Being unable to tolerate pans of ourselves leads to intolerance towards other people with those traits.

Dreams of a crowd symbolize your relationship with groups of people.

If you are going along with the crowd, then this dream may be showing you that it is time to express your individuality.

If you are fitting in and enjoying yourself, then this dream reflects your ability to harmonize and be supported.

If you feel out of place in the crowd, then you may be dealing with pressure to conform and/or to exert yourself.

The crowd represents powerful energy, either good or bad, depending upon the consciousness and intent. As in the story of the Ugly Duckling, it is important to find the tribe/crowd that supports your true nature.

The dream scenario of losing someone you love in a crowd is typically associated with the grieving process. It is not uncommon for bereaved people to feel, in addition to their sorrow, that their loved one has abandoned them. It might be, however, that the person lost in the crowd could represent a part of yourself you are unable to connect with. Dreams of trying in vain to struggle through crowds in a busy shopping centre or sports arena suggest conflict or barriers between your conscious and unconscious mind. Oppressive crowds between you and your goal indicate that you are not satisfying your unconscious desires.

To dream that you are in the middle of a huge crown and that it prevents you from advancing or moving easily, suggests that you feel unable to direct your life. Equally, the dream may be telling you that you need some space. On the other hand, the crowd could represent problems and worries that never stop pressuring you in reality.

If the majority of the people in the crowd are well dressed or wear bright colored clothes, soon you will meet many new friends.

Dreaming about being in a crowd can mean many different things. We may have had anxieties about being in crowds as a child, so crowds could simply represent anxiety. We can feel good about being part of the crowd, or unhappy about being part of the herd; we may feel “lost in the crowd” and want to “stand out from the crowd.” If people are looking at the dreamer, one could be anxious about public opinion.
