| To
dream that you are taking an exam indicates
that you are being put to the test or being
scrutinized in some way. Such dreams highlight
your feelings of being anxious and agitated.
You may find that you cannot answer any
of the questions on the test or that the
test is in some foreign language.
Is
time running out and you find that you can
not complete the exam in the allowed time?
Or are you late to the exam? Does your pencil
keep breaking during the exam? Such factors
contribute to you failing this test.
These
dreams usually have to do with your self-esteem
and confidence or your lack of. You are
worried that you are not making the grade
and measuring up to other people's expectations
of you. You may also experience the fear
of not being accepted, not being prepared,
or not being good enough. You feel nervous,
insecure and tend to believe the worst about
yourself.
These dreams also suggest
that you may feel unprepared for a challenge.
Rarely, are these dreams about the content
of the test, but rather the process and
how you are feeling during the exam taking
process. Generally, you feel distressed
and frustrated. These feelings may parallel
how you are feeling in a particular challenge
or situation in your waking like.
Dreams
of this nature are also an indication that
you are being judged and this dream is a
signal for you to examine an aspect of yourself
that you may have been neglecting and need
to pay attention to. You may harbor some
guilt because of your neglect in preparation
for a school exam, meeting, business project,
or some challenge. Most of the time people
who have such dreams are unlikely to fail
a test in real life. This dream goes back
to their fear and own anxiety that they
may not meet other's standards of them.
They are afraid to let others down.
Now let’s look at some specific symbols
that appear in dreams and what they might
mean.
