Dream Symbols: L

A B D E F G J K L M O P R U V X Y Z


Lace 
The intricate design created by the way you live your life
Lace can be used to describe creativity at it's best and the smallest details link together to create an overall pattern. Holes will describe the holes that were left from letting go of the links you have with people, they leave a hole in your life. They could also describe the hole left by moving on from a job or something like this.  
Fraying might be describing when you feel frayed at the edges, or when something is unravelling before you, the truth can be unravelled.  
The frills in life?

Laboratory 
(Machinery)
A laboratory represents learning and discovery, finding out the things you need to know to be progressive, either about yourself or about other people. Think about what is happening in the laboratory. 

Testing times.
Work out what you need as a person.
Research and discoveries.
Understanding how it works.

Ladder
(Climbing/Tools)
Help is available for you to reach the heights that you want to go to. Think about what you are trying to reach in the dream and if you can climb without problems. Falling off a ladder means something is out of reach at the moment and you might not like that, hitting the floor is a way to explain when it hurts not getting what you want. If it's someone else falling from a ladder the symbolism is about them, perhaps it's you' not giving them what they want. 

Falling for someone's charms?
Trying to clean windows from a ladder in your dream is a way to explain when you want to see things with more perspective and more clarity, climbing a ladder will then explain the lengths you have to go in order to understand someone else's perspective. In this case, falling will describe when you are not able to do this, in other words, you cant understand each other or find common ground.
Climbing up in your endeavours?

Effort is needed for progress!
Getting on the property ladder?


Lake
(River/Water) 

Emotions
Water nearly always represents your current emotional state, therefore, the size and depth of the lake can help you to acknowledge and deal with your own or other people’s feelings. A lake helps you to understand that you keep your emotions well contained most of the time, but any surplus of water/emotion will need to be dealt with. This symbol can help you to see how deep someone’s feeling are, or how shallow a person is.
If it is a calm lake you dream of it can help to explain your calmness in emotional situations or that calmness is needed, especially if the water is clear, whereas murky water symbolises emotional confusion.
Freshwater tells you that you need a fresh approach to emotional issues, you need to express your emotions clearly so that another person can understand where you're coming from. If there is something in the lake translate this as well because this can help you understand what is going on under the surface. If there are a lot of fish in the lake, then your dream is nudging you to search for a worthy partner and showing you all the different available choices. Some you will want to throw straight back, and some are possible keepers, you never really know for sure what you are going to get. 


Lamp
(Light) 

Enlightenment
A lamp post is a mix of a signpost and light which means that you need to take notice of the signposts in your life that help you find the way forward, take comfort that the way ahead is lit up for you, the darkness of despondency you feel will eventually pass.
A ‘light bulb moment’ describes your sudden awareness of information and knowledge.
A guiding light to show you the way.
You need a positive and open mind to see the way forward.

Language and Talking
If you cannot understand the language being spoken to you in a dream then this can represent your own lack of understanding of someone, you do not get them, or understand the way they are. There are issues with your communication or the way you put yourself over to each other.
Speaking in another language in your dream is also a sign of having the gift of communication which is useful in spiritual development. Dreams, for example, have their own language and speaking in another language is a way for you to consider 
that you have a gift and can translate from one person to another, you can converse the spiritual language used in spirit to the living, or as a mediator between living people. It's all about using your mediation skills when two people cant positively communicate with each other.
In dreams talking on the telephone is sometimes impossible and this is because you do not understand what someone is trying to tell you, or you can’t make yourself understood by the person you are attempting to talk to.
Have you ever noticed how in our dreams we don't actually use our mouths to talk? We don't use this physical process in our dreams, communication is through 'thought and intention'. This happens naturally and isn't always noticed. This is actually the way we communicate when we are in our true spiritual form.
Good communication is needed.
Spiritual communication.

Late
Being Late
Dreams where you are late remind you that you are late for the next phase of your life perhaps because the fear of change is keeping you captive. You are missing out on valuable experience or the chance of happiness because of lack of enthusiasm or energy.  
You are missing out on opportunities! 

Laughing
Laughing is a practical symbol of happiness, perhaps you need to laugh more, enjoy the present and share the love.
Something will make you happy.

A laughing stock?

Lead
(Metal)

(Machinery)
Strength but a lack of ability to compromise
Metals give you clues to the strength of something so the several types of metals can help you understand how strong you, someone else, or something like a relationship is. Think in terms of how strong your character is, how strong a relationship is, how strong your willpower is, anything like this. There is only one problem with metals, they don't bend, so they can represent a persona that doesn't give and take or bend a little with their views.  

Lead can explain a dead weight that you carry around, what the dead weight is symbolic for only you can decide. If you have legs that feel like they are made of lead in your dream then this is because you can't progress or go on with the weight you are carrying around with you. Its time to offload, like I said what the weight symbolises is for your personal attention, don't forget it could be literal and mean your  'physical weight'.
Lead in a pencil can help to explain your own or somebody else’s lack of purposeful communication, words that are spoken don't hold much weight. If you dream there is no lead in a pencil or it keeps breaking, this might link with your ability to perform sexually. Your dream is telling you to get the issue sorted and you will be 'all write'.

Leaks
(Water) 

Emotions
There could be something filtering into your life that you need to plug as it is causing you to lose energy, physically or mentally. Information leaks out which could cause damage.
What is draining you?

Lending
Borrowing in a dream informs you that you may need to use someone else's skills or attributes. If someone is borrowing from you they need something that you have, this could be your time, help, skills or money.

Letters
(Documents/Ink/Mail) 

(Posting a letter)
Communication and understanding information
When you are aware of a letter in a dream it can be because someone wants to make a connection with you, they might want to tell you something important or explain their side of a situation. The spirit world has been known to send messages in this way; letters can highlight the need for you to communicate with other people either personally or on a spiritual level. This might also link with an obstacle dream because there is always some frustration when you can't read the letter. This frustration is shown because it is created when someone can't get their message over to you, they can't say what they want to say in entirety. Other symbols in the dream might help you understand a message.

Does your paperwork need sorting out?  

Levels
(Lift/Energy/Elevator/High)
If different levels become a feature in your dream then the dream is trying to explain the various levels of opportunities that are available for you. Trying to get up on another level shows your own attempts to move upwards, if you are moving downwards then you are coming back down to earth. Obstacles or difficulties in a lift or on stairways express the difficulties you must overcome to get to the next level.
If you are on a different level to someone else in your dream it simply means you should think about the fact that you are on different wavelengths and have different levels of thinking, although sometimes this represents the distance or space that stands between you. 

Spiritually, levels can be used to explain raising your vibration to converse with higher levels of existence. If you are trying to climb different levels in your dream there might be obstacles that prevent you from going higher, spiritual learning is slow and should never be rushed, and getting to the next level requires time and experience. Sometimes certain subjects of learning are blocked from you until the time is right.

Library
(Books/Computer/Museum/Reading)
Information and knowledge are available from a library, quiet contemplation/meditation will help you with your thoughts and ideas.
Earth is viewed as a giant learning library.
A bank of knowledge is available to you.
Your personal learning and growth.
The collective consciousness!

Enlightenment.

Lifeboat
(Water) 

Emotions and healing 
This rescue service is showing you that there is help available to you with your emotional struggles.
Learn to control and regulate your emotions.

A spiritual Savior, but only if you ask!

Lift
(Elevator/Energy)

(Levels above) 
(Machinery)
Your personal standpoint
An elevator can give you information as to if you are progressing upwards or moving downwards in life, or in any venture that you are involved in, this can also link with your career. Spiritually, lifts can help to describe the link we make with the spirit world and needing to higher the vibration to make contact.
Lifts are often used in obstacle dreams because they are an ideal symbol to translate how something presently stands. Not being able to get to the floor or level you want explains how you are lacking in a true direction because you do not have a goal to aim for. Tackle one thing at a time rather than going from floor 1, straight to floor 10.
The lift not moving at all represents personal inertia or lack of progress and being stuck between floors can signify being stuck between people, or stuck between two ideas or two different plans. The lift getting stuck can also symbolise being stuck in the confines of a situation that you can't get out of. Not being able to push the buttons or the buttons not working properly in a lift suggests not being able to choose a firm route or direction, you can be indecisive and this hinders your progress. Is someone pushing your buttons? meaning they get you riled up.
A lift dropping or free-falling links with your fears of being dropped in some way and it also shows the uncertainty of how things will end up or turn out. 

A lift in your workplace will just be used so you know that the symbolism is connected to your work and career or to your spiritual work. Remember, even if you don't think that you do spiritual work, even helping a neighbour is considered as your spiritual work!
Lifts in your dream can also help you notice if you or someone else is feeling up or down. 
Make a choice and stick with it! 

Lighthouse

Enlightenment
The doubts about where you belong or where you should be in your life right now, have held you back for long enough, now you must move forward regardless and find solace from the storm.
Have faith that you will find a way forward.
A Guiding light.

Lightning
(Energy/Weather)
This type of electricity is a physical manifestation of overactive energy, it builds up suddenly, and it needs to be released and expelled safely. Electricity is used in dreams to describe anger, love, lust, sexual tension or any other intense energy/feeling that needs harnessing or release. 

Tension builds and bursts out suddenly.

Lights
(Lamp above)

Enlightenment
A beacon of light to guide you on your journey through life.
Happiness and contentment.
The light of your life?
Enlightenment.
A positive force of energy.
Seeing the light at last?

The source, God, the whole consciousness.

Loch

(Boats/Canal/Journey/Water
Unlocking emotional blockages?
Transferring your energy to where it is needed.


Lochness Monster
This symbol could represent someone who is very evasive, who is very emotional and given to shutting themselves away from people, and they can be a bit of a monster at times!

Locks
(Keys)
Locks show you if things are available to you or not, locked doors explain that the way forward is blocked. Locked boxes or trunks can hold secrets that are locked away. It depends on what is in the boxes/trunks for the correct translation. Locks can also symbolise protection from outside sources, this might link with the spiritual journey in that you must learn to lock-out negativity and block out negative people.

Locks can also symbolise the heart being locked or unlocked.

Lost
(Abandonment)
If you are lost in a dream it is because you do not know the way forward with an issue in your life. When we are lost and cannot find our way home it is because we cannot return or go back to a time or place that still has sentiment, your heart is in one place but your body is in another. Home is where the heart is, so being unable to get home in a dream shows restrictions stopping you from being with your loved ones. Perhaps you cant get back to that feeling of being 'home'. contented and in the right place. Spiritually home is where our soul returns to.


Lottery
(Jackpot)
If you win the lottery in your dream the win could represent the winning of someone’s heart, the winning of a cause that you are fighting, getting a new job, something like this, rather than a monetary win, although it has been known for lottery winners to have dreamed about it before a win.
Feel lucky because you will manage to get what you want.

Love
Wonderful feelings of love surround you in any translation.
You are loved, and you are capable of loving.

Learn to love yourself.

Luggage
(Packing) 

(Packing my suitcase dream)
(Visiting other countries)
Your baggage 
To translate the lost luggage dream think about what you are losing in comparison to what you have gained. Consider what was in the luggage and if it was worth worrying about. 

The family?
The baggage that you carry around with you.
Letting go of detrimental feelings that weigh you down.
Travel or moving on?

Lump
Any kind of lump will describe a hurdle to get over, if the lump is on the body then it will link with personal issues that need to be dealt with before they grow bigger. Lumps on the body tend to cause fear and worry, but this dream is more about getting you to deal with the unknown, you need to discover what is going on underneath to disperse the root cause of your fear. Consider where the lump is on your body to get a better translation, the size will also be important. Please do tend to any lumps that give you concern in your waking life, facing your fears is better than spending ages worrying. Dreams do occasionally transmit messages like this so that you take action.
