Intimacy Dream Definition

Intimacy

Similar Dreams: Marriage, Rainbow

If you experience intimacy in your dream it could be a sign of many things.

The nature of the intimacy and who you are experiencing intimacy with will be very telling. Intimacy does not always refer to sex, either in the dream world or in waking life.

It does suggest a need or a desire to get closer to someone. Perhaps you are missing intimacy in your life or long for intimacy with a specific person. It could be that you have too much intimacy in your life, and you need to tone down in this area. Consequences of intimacy may appear in your dream then and this might be a message to you to slow down in this area.

This is not usually a sign that you still have feelings for your ex or that you want to be back with them. This dream often highlights a desire to heal.

Dreaming about others watching you during intimacy:

If you dream you are being watched while being intimate with another, this can highlight real fears with sexual performance during waking life.
