Doll Dream Meanings

Doll Dream Meaning: From 20 Different Sources


Doll

This dream (especially if a woman experiences it) represents childhood nostalgia, the desire to feel protected and cared for, and above all, the urge to avoid present responsibilities. Sometimes the dreams featuring dolls suggest that the dreamer faces overwhelming situations.

If the dreamer is a man, the dream may indicate in very scathing way that his attitude toward women is old-fashioned and immature. The dream could also refer to dreamer’s maternal instincts.

If you have your own children, maybe you should ask yourself if you behave maturely enough with them.

Dolls have played an important role in history. From Voodoo, in which they represent the enemy and are stuck with needles, to the image of a girl telling a doll about her problems. This dream expresses the same concept, our needs, fears, desires, and hopes to seek a way to be expressed.

During childhood, you have much more trust in a doll than in any adult. Perhaps, in the dream, you are telling your doll a big secret.

Example: ‘She continues to attack him and, to my horror and feeling of helplessness, his head comes off. But the neck is made of some son of material with a string hanging off it, and I realise it is a doll’s head* (Mr RH). Many ‘doll’ dreams are, as the example, using the doll as a target for violence. This may refer to how the dreamer felt as a child when smacked or attacked emotionally—like a helpless doll. Also, in general, childhood states of feeling about ourself, a means of displacement for anger or feelings the dreamer would like to discharge on another, a feeling of wanting to be a precious ‘doll’ to someone, wanting to be loved.

Doll

Dolls in dreams are lifeless images of real people. They are suggestive of a person that is not genuine and does not express her feelings. Most dreams are about our personal issues and concerns and not about others. Therefore, think about yourself and try to see if you have been behaving in such ways that have been less than “real.” Dolls as a dream symbol may represent the way you relate and interact with your internal and external environments.

If feelings of detachment and phoniness prevail in your daily life, then they may be reflected in this dream.
