Ayurvedic practitioners use dreams to tell us about the underlying psychology of a person. Dreams let us know what dosha is dominating the mental and emotional activity of an individual. Paying attention to your own dreams is one way that you can learn what dosha needs to be balanced for you. Here are some guidelines to help:
Unbalanced Vata causes people to dream about fearful situations and flying. Such dreams include: flying through the air, becoming a bird, being in an airplane, being alone, people chasing you, your romantic partner leaving you, betrayal, any dream scenario in which you feel frightened, insecure, or lonely.
Unbalanced Pitta causes dreams that relate to image, conflict, and career. Such dream scenarios include: being late for something, showing up to an event or place wearing no clothing or being inappropriately dressed, dreaming about your job, failing a test, fire, physical fights, arguments, war, and violence.
Kapha imbalances cause dreams that are full of water and indulgence. Unbalanced Kapha causes dreams such as seeing your own death, drowning, eating lots of sugary foods, or being unable to move quickly.
