By Vicki Karigiannis Did you know that 8% of your dreams revolve around sexual situations? Sex is very prevalent in both women and men’s dreams; and while dreaming about sex could suggest that you’re consumed by it and just want to get some, it also actually does have a more thorough meaning, pertaining to your career, your personality, and your relationships. Read on to find out what last night’s hot dream really meant! Your dream: Having sex with an ex-boyfriend. What it means: If you’ve dreamt about an ex from times past more than once, it doesn’t mean that you don’t love your current sweetie. Your former flame is just a symbol of a time when you were younger and more carefree. Perhaps you have been stressed with work and other responsibilities as of late, and your dreams may be nothing but a reminder that you need to slow down and find some time to relax.
Your dream: Having sex with a faceless stranger. What it means: This is a very common dream. The facelessness of your dream lover implies that you are unable to read a certain someone and that you’re trying to get to know them on a deeper level but they are not letting you in. It could also mean that there are certain needs and desires you have that you have yet to—or are not prepared to—confront or fulfill; you are somehow protecting yourself.
Your dream: Having sex with a celebrity. What it means: If you’re knocking boots with Brad Pitt or Clive Owen in your nightly fantasies, it implies that you have a deep-seeded need to be popular and accepted by your peers. Your dream association with random Hollywood hotties basically means you seek a higher social status than the one you currently are at in the waking world, and that you want fame and acknowledgment.
Your dream: Having sex in public. What it means: Dreaming about having sex in a public place with masses of people watching you (or even just walking by and not acknowledging your floor show) shows that you are usually very honest with yourself when alone, but that you put up a front in public. Try not to repress your true feelings and emotions in front of others and just be yourself.
Your dream: Having sex with someone of the same sex. What it means: If you’ve dreamt that you’ve made love to another woman, it doesn’t imply that you are subconsciously attracted to other women. Rather, it means that you have reached a certain amount of acceptance of, and respect for, yourself. It also may mean that you have a need to be more in touch with your feminine side (i.e. your feelings and emotions) that you may have always avoided.
Your dream: Having sex with multiple partners. What it means: If you dream about being at the center of an orgy, it may mean that you have certain repressed desires (be they sexual or otherwise) that you want to express; you are quite possibly a very creative person. You may have so much pent-up energy inside of you that you want to break free and try something new and exciting.
