Wish dream meaning is explained below using 7 different sources. Each interpretation is shown with its source.

Interpretation 1 — Versatile - Anonymous

Material aspects: By regarding a wish as an appeal to the powers that be, from a mundane viewpoint we need to be very clear that what we wish for is what we want. Dreams can have the function of sorting out what we really want and getting rid of the non-essential.

Psychological / emotional perspective: Emotionally, we are able to ‘power up’ our wishes in dreams. By bearing our intent in mind prior to sleep, we can add the additional energy of the unconscious to making things happen. This is called manifestation.

Interpretation 3 — Eric Ackroyd

(see also Anxiety, Punishment, Wanting)

According to Freud the intention of every dream is the fulfilment of a wish, usually an instinctual wish but sometimes - in dreams of punishment - the wish of the super-ego, or ‘conscience’.
