Oyster Dream Interpretation

An oyster in your dream may have sexual connotations. It usually represents the female sex organ or, if eaten by a man, may represent his ability or desire to perform well sexually. Oysters are also considered symbols of humility and wisdom. Their meaning is associated with that of pearls.

The most negative interpretation is that the oyster represents a well guarded individual; a person who has shut himself off from others. Attempt to connect some of these ideas to your emotional life and overall experiences and keep in mind the setting, context and outcome of the dream. When considering the interpretation of feeling pain in your dream, first look at you physical health.

If you are feeling pain in your daily life, it may carry over into your dream state. Additionally, if the pain is emotional in nature, question the painful feelings and attempt to identify their source.

The dream state is usually a safe way to experience negative feelings with which you may not want to deal.

Oyster Dream Interpretation

An oyster may be a sexual symbol, representing the vagina.

Pain

Pain felt in a dream may have a physical cause (though to what extent any pain is purely physical in origin is debatable: perhaps pent-up emotion is the root of all pain). Otherwise, it may express emotional deprivation. Where is the pain? It may be that what is associated with that part of the body (e.g. self-expression, associated with the throat) has not been allowed adequate expression. But there is no simple one- to-one correspondence between part of body and type of emotion: for example, any emotional blockage may cause pain in the chest; and the same applies to the belly - where we must not assume that pain invariably indicates unfulfilled sexual desire.
