Your dreams are useful on so many levels, you will not believe it!
Indeed, they may have a powerful emotional impact on you, such as when you dream about your crush.
However, as soon as you learn what they mean and why you have them, you won’t get enough of them!
You see, your mind creates images and stories as a way to…
- … sort through daily information
- … highlight your innermost unconscious desires and struggles
- … improve your problem solving-skils
- … help you process emotions
What does this really mean? It means that dreaming about your crush is a common experience and is full of significance!
However, the meaning of your dreams changes according to what actually happens in them, as I’ll explain later.
But, first…
What is the meaning behind dreaming about your crush?
Dreaming about your crush has general possible meanings, as follows:
- Your crush appears in your dreams because your brain processes the latest memories you have about them and decides which ones to keep and which to forget
- You dream about your crush because you have fantasies related to them or because something about them or a possible relationship with them troubles you
- Dreaming about them in various instances means that your brain is preparing you for more than one possible real-life scenario that involves them
- Your crush shows up in your dreams because of your feelings for them or related to them that you don’t think about while you’re awake

Do Dreams about my crush indicate that they are also thinking about me?
Psychologically and neurologically speaking, there’s absolutely no connection between your dreams and your crush’s thoughts.
Your brains are not connected to each other, so experiencing such synchronization is not very probable.
However, if you’re a spiritual person who believes in soulmates and twin flames, then you can count it as a probability.
Cosmic couples are capable of telepathically communicating with each other and manifesting in each other’s dreams.
Numerous spiritually-gifted people think that’s true. However, there’s no scientific evidence to back that up.
Summary:
You can have both positive dreams about your crush or negative ones. Either way, you now have all the needed information to decipher your dreams.
Remember that most of the time, they reflect your desires, struggles, and feelings. They don’t predict the future or reveal secrets that you are not aware of.
Your dreams may also be real-life simulations meant to prepare you for certain situations that might happen to you while you’re awake. However, this doesn’t mean they’ll come true.
So, try to keep an open mind and analyze your dreams objectively!
