Just last week, more than 125 tornadoes were reported in the U.S. Even though they were in Iowa, Missouri, Georgia and Mississippi – tornadoes in the news, might easily appear in your dream… if it fits what’s going on for you this week.
Since at the first level every dream is reflecting a very specific current issue you are attempting to problem solve, I suggest grabbing a pen and write down all the things that come to mind for you when thinking of a tornado.
The thing about a tornado is that while we typically get at least some warning it’s coming, we never know how much damage will result. Perhaps anticipating a situation in your life that might “toss you around” is eminent. This week I had a colonoscopy. I knew it was coming, but of course I didn’t know what results to expect. Given that I had colon cancer 14 years ago, the upcoming anticipation was a perfect scenario for me to use a tornado in order to describe to myself how I was feeling.
Hearing a tornado nightmare on air during a radio interview I did last week, the DJ shared his own brilliant, solution-oriented association to tornadoes when he said they leave a path. He also provided a wonderful example of how dreams about tornadoes need not necessarily be negative! Besides, his suggestion gave hope for the dreamer!
One of my all-time favorite dreams of a tornado came from an old friend, who I discussed in the context of how we might use the same image in a dream as a point of reference, in order to assess how we are moving along on a particular subject. I’m sharing the link to Dream Tidbit #95 titled, Using One Image as a Point of Reference, for you here so you can see what I mean.
Dreaming About Tornadoes Potential Meanings
- Being caught up in a whirlwind of ideas or events
- Unresolved emotions: The swirling winds and unpredictability of tornadoes in dreams can mirror suppressed or neglected emotions, acting as a subconscious signal to pay attention to unresolved feelings. Similar to how a tornado releases pent-up energy, your dream may be urging emotional release.
- Fear of change: The destructive nature of tornadoes could represent a fear of impending changes. The swirling chaos might mirror concerns about disruptions or upheavals.
- Feeling powerless: The destructive nature of tornadoes in dreams may symbolize a sense of being overwhelmed by challenging circumstances, external or internal, in your waking life. It could indicate feeling powerless or struggling to manage a chaotic or out of control situation.
- Transition and transformation: On a more positive note, tornadoes in dreams may symbolize transformation and change, clearing away old structures and signifying the end of something, paving the way for renewal and personal growth.
- Concern for others: Dreaming about a tornado chasing family members may suggest worries about their safety or welfare. It could prompt contemplation on the protective or nurturing role you fulfill in their lives.
- Spiritual awakening: Understanding tornadoes in dreams from a spiritual perspective could symbolize a deep internal metamorphosis or awakening. The destructive power of the tornado might signify the breakdown of outdated beliefs, paving the path for spiritual advancement.
Have you had dreams about tornados? Please let me know. I’d love to hear if you connect them now that you have some ideas.

Last night, I Dreamt of several tornadoes forming all around me. I was trying to deliver something, a semi truck, a little cow, if I remember right. Trying to hook the trailer up, I watched them form-there were so many of them, finally grabbed the little cow and we took shelter in a rickety little shack, as we got there my mom came running in. I was watching you, worrying about you. I’m right here. She didn’t do much, crouched down and took shelter. I laid on top of the little cow, holding it down, I kept asking mom should I just let it go, will it’s natural instincts kick in? In my mind I thought “it’s too domesticated.” And said I’ll my best to keep it safe, atheist here I can see if its safe or not plus I have to make sure it gets where it needs to get. Mom disappeared and I went on my way. I went out and unsure of what else happened but I was at an event of some sort. Lots if my clients were there, I didn’t want to be recognized but also kind of did. Again, I watched the sky transform into a tornado making sky full of clouds funneling down. I ran to a church right before begging them to open it up. I scaled down the stairs, it was as if no one else was concerned about the tor does even though they were developing quickly and right there in front of everyone. I saw myself scared and in my mind I kept saying why am I so scared, no one else is. Why aren’t they as scared as me? And then that’s all I remember.
Hi KC. Thanks for reaching out. A dream is an interior conversation about a very current situation in our life we are attempting to come to a conclusion about. I am not a psychic. I have a psychological approach to dream analysis. It’s a back and forth conversation that takes place between you, the dreamer and myself. Once we speak you will understand exactly what it was you were saying to yourself inside this dream and I am sure you will be fascinated as your dream is very detailed. I invite you to book a private consultation and you can do so at this link. https://thedreamanalyst.com/dream-interpretation-consultations/ I look forward to speaking with you and you learning not only why you had this dream, but at the same time learning how to analyze a dream, so you’ll never have to wonder again!
I was driving on the highway. (Not in my car). I changed lanes, to pass the car ahead of me when a tornado lifted me and the car into the air. Just spinning away slowly. Woke up before I was able to land.
Hi. Thanks for your dream. Since every dream is reflecting a very specific, very recent waking life situation, if this was my dream, I’d be looking for some circumstance where at first I felt in control—-and then suddenly my situation changed —-and now I no longer feel in control. I hope that helps! I should add this dream leaves me not sure about how my situation is going to resolve……Perhaps I am “still up in the air” on that!
I dreamed I saw a large tornado from afar, and I had to urgently grab my baby and run to the church basement. My family and friends were there and we hunkered down while the tornado hit us. Debris falling around and hitting us. My baby was in her car seat and I pulled the canopy all the way down and threw a blanket over the both of us as we sat under a table. Then I woke up
Hi. Thanks for reaching out and sharing your dream. In case you’re not aware, a dream is an interior conversation that takes place between your conscious and your unconscious mind. This conversation is triggered by a person or situation in your life this week that’s bugging you. The good news is that the solution to whatever is bugging you appears in a dream before you get it consciously. That’s what I do. I teach people how to recognize a solution when it comes in the form of a metaphor. It sounds like when you had this dream, something was going on around you that left you feeling like you needed to run for cover! Since I am not a “psychic” and so working with me is not an experience like that, if you want to investigate what specific waking situation you were discussing with yourself when you had this dream, I invite you to book a private consultation with me. You can do that by going to this link. https://thedreamanalyst.com/dream-interpretation-consultations/ I look forward to speaking with you, Layne Dalfen
I dreamt I was in a mobile home (not my house) and I could feel the house moving to where it felt so real. I was holding on to the wall and a table trying to turn the corner to get to the bathroom. I remember thinking about needing to get my dogs and woke up shortly after.
Hi. Since at the first, (or surface) level every dream is triggered by either something you thought about or something that happened to you the day before the dream, the job of dream analysis is always, first— being able to attach your dream to whatever that very specific situation is. Once you know the issue you were discussing with yourself in the dream, you can look for the solution. The solution to an issue you are facing appears inside a dream first, before you get it consciously.
All that said, if this was my dream, I would focus on what happened in my life recently that’s got me feeling I’m on extremely “shaky” ground, or perhaps I am “trying to get somewhere” and having a hard time getting there. Getting somewhere, when used in a metaphor might mean getting somewhere in a relationship……or getting somewhere in your work, so stay open to the possibilities…..If you need some help analyzing your dream, I’m right here and I welcome you to book a private consultation. Here’s the link. Have a great day.

I dreamt I was walking along a road I’d been on before. I was alone and came to a small town on the coast. There were lots of people looking out to sea looking for a tornado. Then I saw it . It was beautiful. Pink and violet with stars caught in it. A farmer in a tractor was trying to follow its path. I shouted ‘no way!’ and tried to take a photo. It was very beautiful. Then it disappeared into the sky
Since every dream is reflecting a very specific waking situation, I would ask you to name how this dream made you feel—-and then look at your life in these last few days to be able to name what VERY recent circumstance made you feel in a similar way. You were “interrupted” in your dream when the farmer came by. I am wondering if there was also an interruption in whatever situation you guess this dream is reflecting. The thing is—-in a dream you are actually having an interior discussion with yourself! The way I see it—-in your dream you shouted at the farmer which has me wondering if the solution to whatever you were discussing with yourself is perhaps to speak up! I hope that helps!
I had a dream I was holding a big thick dark Tornado and actually putting my arms around its swirling vortex and redirecting it from harming anything or anyone. As someone else was with me and not being helpful as I’m yelling to have them help warn everyone and help me with it.
Hi Rebecca. Since our dreams are, in fact, an interior conversation about something or someone who is on your mind THIS WEEK, the first goal before seeking a solution, is to help you name what current situation you were discussing with yourself when you had this dream.
I can tell you, if this was my dream? I would be looking for a very recent circumstance in which I am trying to “protect” myself and those around me! Like for example, if you have someone in your family who has a really bad temper……My point is in the plot of this dream? You are “doing it all alone”—–Even asking for help with no apparent volunteers!! Perhaps your dream is here to encourage you to SPEAK UP LOUDER! …..After all, I am sure you will agree with me, a tornado is pretty hard to contain all by yourself!
I had a dream where my estranged mother of two years awkwardly kissed me on the cheek and put her arm around me. The next thing I knew I was standing in front of an oncoming tornado and did not have time to run for cover. There was a metal railing within arms reach so I held on as long as I could but the pressure swept me up by the feet and into the swirl. Oddly I wasn’t scared rather more curious.
Hi Lisa. Thanks for reaching out. If you would like a private consultation, I invite you to click this link and book a time. I am sure you and I will uncover exactly what you were saying to yourself in this conversation called the dream. I am not a psychic, so I will need you–the dreamer—to work together with me in order for you to understand what you were saying to yourself during this dream. Have a nice evening! Here’s the link:

I dream I fell asleep in the car and i woke up seen a big tornado coming and we all ran into this building and we went back outside and it was coming towards the building. It was me and this light skinned guy and the closet and he began to cry and pull two chairs up in front of us. The tornado had started taring the building up.i held the man because he was still crying and I began to pray over him until it passed over.
Hi Drea, It’s funny because I just finished re-reading all I wrote in this blog post. Reading it has me wondering. Are you able to connect the events you describe in your dream to a very recent waking situation from your life? I look forward to hearing back from you, which examples I site in the blog post that you “connect to” and we can further investigate what recent subject from your life you were discussing with yourself in the dream. If you want my help to look inside this dream with you, I invite you to book a private consultation at this link. https://thedreamanalyst.com/dream-interpretation-consultations/ Looking forward to hearing from you. Best, Layne Dalfen
Hola, soñé que estaba con mi hijo en la recámara y por la ventana vi como se empezaba a formar un tornado, se empezaba hacer muy grande, los dos nos acercábamos a la ventana y observábamos que el tornado empezaba a tocar árboles pero al momento de hacerlo los transformaba y hacía que salieran rosas y flores, mi hijo me volteó a ver con admiración y yo sentí mucha paz y alegría. Empezaba a llorar.
Hi Andres. I am sorry this reply is late. I have been away. Unfortunately, I do not speak Spanish so I am not able to answer you! I wish you my best though! Layne Dalfen
I had a dream last night that I was caught in a tornado. I was at a friend’s house (real friend, not her house). I was in the basement bathroom when it hit. I remember wondering if I should flush during the storm or not. There was a little window with debris flying in. Then I could sense the tornado digging the dirt away from the side of the house and eventually it pulled out part of the foundation and the floor from the second story. I had a bunch of stuff in one of the bedrooms upstairs and it was all unharmed. I remember the neighbors coming to help make the house stable for my friends to live in while they repaired it.
Hi Angela. I was away and only just saw your message now. I believe you must have read on my blog post that every dream is triggered by something you thought about or something that happened to you the day before you had the dream. I have a psychological approach to dream analysis, which means I would need to speak with you and ask you questions in order to be able to understand what situation you were discussing with yourself when you had this dream. The fact that you dreamed you were caught in a tornado—-If that was my dream, the first thing I would be looking for is what recent event in my life is making me feel in a storm—-perhaps an argument, directly with me or with people around me that I am subjected to. If you would like to book a consultation, you can do so by clicking on this link. I look forward to speaking to you and I do promise you will understand exactly why you had this dream….and more importantly, discovering how the solution to the problem is there inside the dream!

I dreamed that me, my spouse, our two older children and our one year old were on a day away trip. We left our girls with someone we trusted and took the baby to go pull the car around. After getting in the car we noticed subtle hints at what was coming. Wind picking up and people struggling to walk. Then our car got lifted and turned around. Once it stopped moving I left my spouse with our baby and ran to go check on our girls. I located them, made sure they were okay and left to go bring my spouse and baby back with me. I found our car and they were okay but woke up as soon as I told my spouse we needed to get back to the building.

This was the first dream I’ve had in a while. I dreamt that I was in this house, and I looked out the window and saw a black tornado forming, until it eventually touched the ground. It was black, skinny, and funnel-like, but the sky all around it was blue. I warned everybody that was with me (I can’t remember who the people were, but I know they didn’t have much significance to my life). I could only see it from a distance at first, but then it started slowly approaching the house I was in. Someone told us where to go for shelter, which was this bunker space that was basically in the back yard, under a metal shop (the entrance was on the outside of the shop, going underground). Everybody left from the house to go there, but I hung back longer than everybody, basically pacing around for no reason, looking for something that clearly wasn’t there (not sure what I was looking for). I went to the place for shelter, then came out shortly after because it was gone (it’s also worth noting that the people were no longer there and they would never pop back up). Then I ended up in this mobile home, where I saw the same tornado again. This time, it picked up the house I was in and then let it down. I got out of the mobile home, went to this patch of aspen trees, and watched that tornado leave. I woke up shortly after.
I have a feeling it’s symbolism for stuff happening at work because we’ve had a lot of “dumpster fires” come about within the past month, and literally JUST took a step forward in having some progress. It’s been stressful dealing with it, and there are still some things going on, but we’re reaching an end-point in the whole situation. And I think that the aspens, along with the tornado going away, was a way for saying that it’s almost over with? I don’t know, but I thought it was crazy that this was the first dream I’ve had in MONTHS and was able to remember specific details.
Hi Tana. I believe you must have read on my blog post that every dream is triggered by something you thought about or something that happened to you the day before you had the dream.You seem to have named the situation your dream is addressing very well! The fact that you dreamed you were caught in a tornado really does seem to reflect the circumstance you are experiencing at work. The fact that you remembered this dream in such detail is your healthy unconscious mind calling you!! It wants your attention and looks like it succeeded. If you would like to book a consultation, you can do so by clicking on this link.

Recently, I had a dream that I was at my childhood best friend’s wedding. We had a falling out and I was not at her actual wedding. So in this dream I knew I wasn’t supposed to be there. My mom who I have a tumultuous relationship with was also there. I roamed around this wedding venue looking for my friend. Eventually I found her. I had this internal dialogue wanting to apologize but it was like I couldn’t speak. Then next thing I know we are walking out in a street together. We were in a quaint town, lots of brick buildings. We were walking to a shop of sorts. And tornados started appearing behind us (and mind you I live somewhere where tornados do not happen so I’ve never seen one in real life). We kept on our way as the shop was in reach. We entered and my friend just was looking around. I said to the owners “thank you for holding my stuff.” A familiar travel backpack of mine was there on their clothes rack. I opened it up. My passport and a change of clothes were in there. I said thank you again and left the shop. A red, fancy, old timish car was waiting for me. My friend no longer with me. I was still in my dress and heals and I reached the vehicle. More tornados appeared. But I just drove like they didn’t matter. That’s all I remember.

I had a dream that the biggest tornado ever was heading towards us, my family lives in different states so I called to warn them about the gigantic tornado and they were all dealing with their own storms, hurricanes, tsunamis and dust storms. As the tornado got closer I felt less scared and wanted to get closer to it so I stayed outside. As it approached I saw a green portal open up and beings from another planet. I was ready to go inside and see what was going on inside the tornado. Felt brave, like a leader…I woke up.
Hi Michelle. Thanks for sharing your dream. If that was my dream it would be me rehearsing. Literally– building my confidence about taking control and stepping up to the plate. It looks like the current waking situation may be that everyone around me these days is “dealing with their own storms”…..But the important thing is, it appears you are “ready” to take control over whatever recent situation you were discussing with yourself inside this dream. Bravo!
I used to have a very big childhood fear or tornadoes/storms. However- growing up I’m not as afraid. I Have had multiple tornado dreams, and often times they are very intense but I’m always barely safe from the danger. I’m always either at my parent’s house or in my grandpa’s basement. I’ve been through a divorce 3 years ago and life is busy with my children growing. I haven’t had a tornado dream in awhile, but I had a very intense one last night. Multiple ones coming through the area- I can always see them from a distance, but I’m always “barely” safe– I remember feeling fear and being terrified. Just strange that I had one after not having one for quite some time.
Hi Rebecca. Thanks for reaching out. A dream is a discussion you have with yourself concerning an incident that happened or that you thought about the day before you had the dream. The easiest and fastest way to uncover what very recent situation you were trying to work out inside your dream is to connect to how you felt in the dream and ask yourself what is making you feel in a similar way. If you would like a private consultation, you can do so by booking through this link. I look forward to meeting you! https://thedreamanalyst.com/dream-interpretation-consultations/
I had a tornado dream last night. It waa a couple short segments of the same area but different scenes I witnessed and apart of. First one, there was panic as one was spotted coming towards town, but I didnt see it. Second one, was a smaller one that I was witnessing engulfing a pickup truck and spinning it around still on the the ground. I was in the pickup and emerged safe and sound. After the tornado spun me around for a few seconds and revelutions, I got out and looked down over a hill next to the road to see a serine, peaceful valley with a few clouds scattered within it. I was above the cloud cover and it looked so peaceful. Third, I saw smaller, twin tornadoes heading towards a little house. Then, as they got near, they separated a little bit, and went on either side of the house, not causing any damage at all. Lastly, I remember hearing g a tornado siren. I was with maybe 10-15 people at the time, outside, in town, very close to the volunteer fire department building. We didnt see amything in the sky and was wondering where the next one would show up. It was very calm during this segment weather wise.
After all of that, I woke up for the day and typed this out.
Hi Keith. Thanks for sharing your dream. As I imagine you read in my blog, our dreams are reflecting a specific current waking experience. And we are having an interior discussion deciding what we might want to do about that specific situation or person. How do I want to react to my experience? That’s the dream’s discussion. In order for you to name the recent event that you are mulling over,you might break down how you felt in each part of the dream and see what happened recently that made you feel the same way. The one thing I noticed here is you’re not actually “in it”. You’re an observer. I’d be looking for if I’ve been watching others in my life arguing with each other. Perhaps at home or work. I also notice that what looks like it could be terrible seems to calm down. That’s what I’d be thinking if this was my dream.
I just woke up and had a dream about tornadoes.
It starts out by driving on the road where I see people along side the road and under a bridge looking worried and fearful into the same direction. I decide to turn around and join them to see what’s going on. It’s a tornado and I immediately think Oh I should not be under this bridge. But there’s a woman there who looks overcome by fear and I tell her to get on my car. As the wind picks up, we are racing away. The next moment I’m in my home/bar. The weather is fine but someone says oh look, tornadoes! I go outside and there are 5 tornadoes out there. I call my husband to help me get everything that’s outside in so there’s no debris flying around. After that we go to our neighbor who has a store and we try to safe as many things as possible. My husband shows me a turtle trinket he likes that he will pay for later. We go back to our own home/bar where I attempt to shut the shutters, but somehow it’s the sunshade that comes down. I decide that the bar guests might actually like to see the tornadoes coming through.
We wait and there’s the tornadoes, who turn out to be just a little gust of wind. The bar guests are disappointed. My husband calls me because the neighbor want to see us in private. I thought it was because of the help we gave but it turns out he never says anything about it but starts trying to sell us stuff instead. I feel myself getting irritated and that’s when the alarm wakes me.
In trying to help you name the very recent waking incident that triggered this dream, I am drawn to the action. It seems like your role throughout all these tornadoes is trying to save things before they are too damaged. Perhaps you also found yourself “in the line of fire” while it was all going on and realizing you are in the wrong place. (Under the bridge)….If that was my dream I’d be thinking about me trying to “bridge” a disagreement I’m observing between my kids, or perhaps if friends I know are arguing. But like you say, it turns out to be just a gust of wind. I might add after all the caregiving you seem to do — instead of a thank you — it’s more a case of feeling as if some people around you still want more. (Trying to sell you stuff). If this was my dream I’d be thinking about assessing how much I’m giving out. Perhaps my dream is here to encourage me to move closer to those who appreciate my good intentions!
Ola,sonhei que estava escurecendo eu estava chegando no conjunto que morei ,vi os carros parados no conjunto como um trânsito parado ,que nunca vi no conjunto ,olhei para o lado e deu um relâmpago e vi um grande tornando imenso perfeito na luz do relâmpago .
Dado que en el primer nivel cada sueño refleja un problema actual MUY ESPECÍFICO que estás intentando resolver, te sugiero que pienses en cómo te sentiste durante el sueño del tornado y qué crees que sucedió recientemente que te hizo sentir de manera similar.
Parece que estás describiendo algún tipo de “anticipación” o una especie de expectativa… pero no necesariamente una expectativa positiva… ¡ya que, después de todo, estamos hablando de una tormenta!
I was in my car and I looked over and saw the clouds forming and wind was crazy then all of a sudden while I’m parked in a sonic drive thru (right next to my job and CEO was there.) all of a sudden the tornado takes my car and we don’t necessarily spin like crazy but it makes me feel scared at first but then I prayed and remember just getting dropped in the air and landing really hard but being ok. I called someone to let them know. I think it was my husband but him and the kids were in a different car and they drove away way before I did even though we were all together just earlier in the dream.
If it helps the only reason I drove back to the sonic right before the tornado look me it was because the food they gave me had ants in it…
Hi Jessica. Thanks for reaching out. Reading your question, I am left wondering if you read this blog post! I am only asking because I posted this article full of suggestions to help you attach your dream to the waking event from your life this week that helped trigger your dream! Since at the first level every dream is reflecting a VERY SPECIFIC current issue you are attempting to problem solve, I suggest grabbing a pen and write down all the things that come to mind for you when thinking about how you felt inside your tornado dream…….And then think about what has been happening in your life in these last few days that has you feeling a similar way. What has you feeling scared or nervous these days? Since the tornado happened “all of a sudden” you say in describing your dream, look for what situation in your life came on you “all of a sudden”…..Finally, if this was my dream, I’d be looking perhaps for someone in my life who did’t “give me what I asked for.” I am saying that in response to you saying they “served you food that had ants in it.” The great news in your dream seems to me that while you did get dropped……(did someone end a relationship of some kind?)……But while you did land hard, (maybe your feeling were hurt?) you say you are okay. That’s very positive. That’s where I would focus. How maybe I was hurt and surprised….I seem to be okay.
Well funny enough, I literally woke up from the dream and immediately came across your page and just felt I had to post it to see what you had to say. As I read your reply I said hmmm I should probably go read her post. WOW. That’s pretty exact. I am actually in the middle of processing a potential divorce. I did however fall back asleep and it almost picked back up exactly however I was going down a dark road (I believe the way back home to get something) and there were a pack of wolves not letting me cross. And I turned around I believe to make sure I was prepared when I came back. But did look into that too and I read that I could be needing to face a truth or a path that I have been avoiding. Anyway, I thank you so much for your time Layne!
Hi!
I’m SO happy to hear that you’ve connected to your dream! You sound as if you are connecting to the concept of the problem solving we are doing and how perfectly the dream metaphor reflect the current waking life situations.
Hi, I had dream that I was in mobile house all the cabinets and refrigerators was open. So I closed the refrigerator only. Then pick up my son and breastfeed him which he was an infant in my dream when now his 6. As I breastfeed him I look at window and my fence was gone but the tornado was not far but far. Enough from my place. As I hurry get ready pack everything then like ants bit me on my legs and sting so I took off and stray for ants. I keep packing and kept observing the tornado then the tornado was just outside my back yard it’s a small one. But there was a guy in car stop tornado getting close my house as I grab more diapers another ant bit me but it didn’t hurt as much as other ones did so I just removed it like nothing and as I look at window the tornado had gone back other side but still was close enough. That’s when my sister walks in and I tell her help me but she told me she just came from my sister house as she packed and I told her what was going on. But now the house we where in wasn’t mobile house no more but regular house
Hi Jocelyn
Sorry for this late response. My life overtook me! Thanks for reaching out and for sharing your dream. I am not a “psychic” and so working with me is not an experience like that. I have a psychological approach to dream analysis. That means I need to speak with you, the dreamer, in order to uncover what your personal associations to the images you chose in the dream are, how you felt in the dream and most importantly what specific situation in your life was going on that week that triggered this dream.
In case you didn’t catch me explaining this in my articles—– a dream is an interior conversation that takes place between your conscious and your unconscious mind.
This conversation is triggered by a person or situation in your life this week that’s bugging you. The good news is that the solution to whatever is bugging you appears in a dream before you get it consciously. That’s what I do. I teach people how to recognize a solution when it comes in the form of a metaphor.
Since it was a few weeks ago, perhaps you will remember some situation where, as you described in your dream, you could see “trouble or better said, a “rumble coming in the distance” and preparing yourself “to meet the storm”….or better said, run from it! Dreams like this often happen when we are anticipating an argument. For me the most poignant part of your dream is how it highlights the lack of “control” we have over people and their reactions and moods. That’s a great tornado dream “lesson”, so whatever tension was going on in your life during the week you had this dream…..for me one of the lessons is how we have about as much control over people as we do over tornadoes. Perhaps your dream was there to encourage you to let go of trying to control a situation or a person you can’t control! I hope that helps!
Hey my name is Andrew, I never had a dream about a tornado before, but in my dream it was me, my oldest brother, his ex wife and, girlfriend in my house mother project apartment that 16 floors. The tornado hit one side of building and the building collapsed on the side close to my mother apartment. I know it had to be over a hundred’s of people die when the collapsed but I wake up before another could happen to us out my dream
Hi Andrew. Thanks for reaching out. As I am hoping you read this blog post, you must now know, a dream is a discussion you have with yourself. It’s an interior—personal—movie—and it’s you who writes the script. At the first level a dream is triggered by something very specific that happened in your life or that you thought about the day before you had the dream. I don’t know how you felt in your dream, but my guess is very frightened. We usually conjure up dreams like this when something is going on in your life that has you feeling nervous—-but we’re NOT talking about it! When you are not talking to someone you trust about the stuff in your life that’s worrying you, the emotion you hold inside has to come out! —— And that’s the nightmare! It is your healthy unconscious trying to get your attention. Trying to get you to speak to someone and give your feelings an outlet.

Hi Layne,
I rarely dream. However, last night I had a dream that was so vivid. The part I remembered the most was being in a car with two guys I didn’t know in the front seats. They were taking me to a friends apartment building that I also did not know and had never seen before. A beautiful apartment building was ahead of us from a bridge crossing. Behind the building were dark tornadoes all around but we were heading toward it. The driver got to the apartment building and I said all the tornadoes are behind the building let’s turn back. When he made the left to turn that way, we saw a flood coming in and I felt it hit the car as he tried to turn us around. I lifted my hands in prayer and closed my eyes and that is when I woke up. To say this is concerning would be an understatement. Thank you for taking the time to read my dream. Right now I am fearful but trying not to think about it. I am at a point in my life finally where I don’t feel anxious. I hope it stays that way.
Hi Donna
Thanks for reaching out. My response here is very similar to another I just responded to in how our dreams call our attention to a very specific situation brewing —- that we are not attending to! By not attending to, I am meaning to say, not talking about! The dream creates a scenario to grab your attention. Literally. Your dream seems to have accomplished that end.

Last night I had a dream that my husband and I were standing next to each other when we noticed a large tornado formin a few blocks away in front of us. He reacted first by running across the street and up a flight of stairs at a nearby hotel. I assumed we would run to the hotel to our right as it was closer, and we were staying there. I was surprised that he chose to do that. I had no time to catch up to him, so I turned and started running up the outdoor steps. The wind picked up and it was becoming more difficult to climb. The last few steps were agonizing, but I was determined to make it to safety. I could hear him yelling at me to run and that I could do it. I got inside a room, licked the door and took cover.
We have had a tumultuous decade, and I wondered if this was symbolic of us going our separate ways. The fact that he didn’t join me and instead fled for safety away from me left me with an uneasy, yet predictable feeling. Any insights are appreciated.
Hi Jennifer. From what you are describing, it sounds like you have done an EXCELLENT ANALYSIS!! So my comment is bravo! This is what I call “a re-evaluation dream”, when we’ve experienced something and a little while later we “review” the situation. We get comfortable with it. Great use of metaphor. The best part of this message?? YOU MADE IT TO SAFETY——ON YOUR OWN. Great message. Great rehearsal.
