Going to the toilet I often have a stupid dream in which I need to go to the toilet but all the cubicles are either occupied or have no door. Eventually I find one but then I realise the door is made of glass and everybody has been watching me. Frances, Ipswich Dear Frances, Why you think your dream is stupid? In fact, you’d be surprised to know how many people have similar dreams. Passing water is one of the few activities over which we have little control. In the language of dreams, it therefore represents the ability to express yourself genuinely and spontaneously. Your dream therefore suggests a concern about how you will be judged if you tell other people what you really think. Do you perhaps harbour a secret fear of being thought foolish or in some way socially inadequate? The inappropriate glass door indicates that you find it difficult to create a boundary between yourself and the outside world. Do you, as a result, tend to put other people’s feelings before your own? Dreams like this often reflect underlying feelings of shame. For some people, these can date back to childhood experiences of being ridiculed. Whether or not this is true for ![]() (Sun Taurus, Moon Scorpio)
