Dreaming Lens: Where was the earthquake? Were you in an earthquake, or was your dream after the event? Was it your home or someplace else? How much danger was present? What was the duration of the earthquake? Was there any death? What was the level of the damage? Were you prepared?

Personal Focus: When the tectonic plates of the Earth shift and collide, the result is an upheaval of colossal magnitude. The energetic source of these violent alterations of the ground is deep below the Earth’s surface. The shift of landscape is the result of changes that originate in the subterranean world. This is representative of how unconscious thoughts and feelings can have an enormous impact when they suddenly become conscious. Earthquakes themselves are of relatively short duration, so the life event this image may be reflecting is likely something that occurred quickly or appeared suddenly.

The symbolic meaning of an earthquake is comprised of three elements, which are: A great change has already taken place. The onset of the change originated from a deep and unconscious place. And things will never be the same.

The enormity of an earthquake renders its victims helpless to avoid the consequences of the changes taking place. Look to situations in your current life that are, or seem to be, inevitable or unavoidable. If a shift in your life is knocking you off balance, an earthquake may reflect a level of vulnerability and a lack of security. The real danger of earthquakes arrive in the aftermath: more people die in fires and post hoc structural damage. A dream earthquake could be a warning about danger that is pending due to recent dramatic changes in your waking life.

Try to make a connection between your dream and your waking life. Are there signs that you might lose your job or that your relationship is in trouble?

You may find that rebuilding your life makes you a stronger person because you can build on the ruins of your past by learning from your mistakes.
