Some authors support the theory that the unconscious is warning us through dreams about a possible incubation of a disease, or some organic weakness. But others point out that the dream shows us a need for affection and care. There is also a curious and old theory referred to dreaming that a family member gets sick. If in the dream the relative is the parent it may be a prediction of some disease in our head. If the mother gets sick, the disease will be in the belly. In the case of a child, it will be the heart that gets sick and if the brothers or sisters are sick our arms and legs are in danger.

…A cow in a dream represents longevity. A black or a yellow cow represents happiness, prosperity and a good harvest.

Thus this ancient and traditional symbol is considered a good omen. Dreaming of fat and beautiful cows suggests that everything is okay and will continue to be this way at least in the immediate future. If a woman dreams about this, it means her wishes will be carried out. Dreaming about the milking of healthy fat cows suggests affairs are going well. Dreaming of skinny cows on poor pasture fields symbolizes the exact opposite. To dream about a stampeding herd of cows suggests affairs will go from bad to worse due to the lack of control and it threatens to cause significant losses. Dreaming about milking means longing for profit, quick enrichment, fun and pleasures, but…

Dreaming of acting very lovely with a person of the opposite sex, suggests that there are sexual needs that are not being satisfied, or at least the desire of getting into affair that will discredit you, especially if you are a woman. Dreaming of other people being overly loving insinuates that someone will soon make to you indecent propositions, even if it’s not exactly sex. When a woman dreams of being very romantic with a man without being her husband,…
