Dreaming About Money? What Does It Mean?

Have you been dreaming about money lately? Us, too. Find out what it means when you dream about money.

Before you shake your head and say that dreams have no impact on your waking life, consider this: Scientists have found that they can actually affect our daytime behavior.

In research published in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science, a team of U.S. and British researchers found a link between particular events in dreams and later real-world interactions with our significant others.

Other past studies have also found that dreams can influence our actions and emotional state the next day. Certainly the father of all psychoanalysis would agree. “Dreams are the royal road to the unconscious,” Sigmund Freud said famously in the 19th century.

So what does it mean if you’re dreaming about money? In dreams, money can reflect everything from perceived power and energy to resourcefulness and even self-esteem, says Kelly Sullivan Walden, author of “It’s All In Your Dreams.”

We asked her and two other dream experts to analyze the five most common money-related dreams. Keep reading to see what these money dreams mean.

You Dream About Winning Money: What Does This Dream Mean?

Before you chalk it up to just wishful thinking, dream expert Anna-Karin Bjorklund, author of “Dream Guidance: Interpret Your Dreams and Create the Life You Desire!” suggests that the “winning” feeling could relate to other aspects of your life you have good feelings about, such as being lucky in love.

“This is when you have the power to attract what you really want in life. It may not literally mean a lottery payout, but rather you can expect to attract more positive energy and winning opportunities your way,” Bjorklund says.

She also recommends capitalizing on how you felt when you were asleep. “I call this a wish-fulfillment dream. Take advantage of this amazing feeling you had and bring this confidence with you into your daily life.”
