Dreams are letters from the unconscious to us which are delivered without much evidence. Most of it will be forgotten, and what remains agonizes and pierces deep.
One such dream is being chased by someone or something. I often see dreams of being chased by a train. The chase is not at all fun, and if I fall, it’s much more entertaining.
Usually, these vivid dreams happen in the REM phase which lasts up to 20 minutes. Twenty minutes of running is too much for a work-from-home employee. Maximum 10 minutes is the limit.
The brain prevents this by cooking something to end the story, or a jerk in the muscle or external factor wakes us up.
Why do we see dreams of being chased? These dreams occur because you are trying to avoid something, not literally but metaphorically.
Chased by someone with a knife means avoiding the difficult action of removing a person from your life.
Chased by a gun means you are under a lot of pressure because of hurtful words directed at you.
Chased by a dog symbolizes issues with loved ones, friendship, or relationships.
Chased by a snake represents a low-key toxic person you are trying to avoid.
When being chased, ask yourself what you are retreating from. That will give you the answer.
