A dream I had! Help!?

Question

Okay, when i was like 5 - 7 years old, I had this scary dream when i was living in this house but we moved eventually because it was aweird house anyway, in the house i would have the stairs, and at the bottom of the stairs, there would be the front door, so this is my dream:

I am walking upstairs, late at night, but some force is dragging me down the stairs, and i'm trying to get up but i keep falling off the stairs and as this is happening, i see my front door and in the window of the door, the devil is coming closer and closer and starts shaking the door handle. Thats when i woke up.

It had frightened the **** out of me for ages but i always think about it to this day =/

Thanx for reading =]

Answer 1

if you are a religious person, the stairs probably symbolize going to heaven. you need to get closer to god but you can't because sins keep dragging you back in. not necessarily sins but maybe someone you know is doing alot of bad things and they are trying to drag you into it. or around that age someone may have been a bad influence

Answer 2

Just a dream about fear. Fear that your efforts towards anything can and may be thwarted by forces you are not in control of. A natural, common human fear. Without foundation, but common.

Answer 3

Most likely, even at such a young age, you were realizing you were more inclined to do wrong than right in some areas!  You are trying to walk upstairs (do what is right, obey your parents, etc.) but something keeps pulling you back (your own desires and human tendency to rebel).  Because of this, you feared you were letting the devil in.

Answer 4

To see the devil in your dream, signifies negative aspects of yourself. It may also indicate feelings of guilt that you have been harboring. It is time to release these feelings. Alternatively, the devil may represent intelligence, cunningness, deception, and cleverness. See http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionar... to determine what your dreams mean, it's real cool.
