By far one of most common yet feared dream feeling is falling in dreams or dreams of falling. The dream can be as simple as falling out of bed or as extreme as falling from a rooftop, ladder, high building, mountain, cliff or even out of an airplane without a parachute, to name just a few.

Yet, regardless of the height the dreamer is falling from in the dream, the experience is terrifying to the dreamer from the result of having lost complete physical control in the dream often followed by an overwhelming fear of dying or being hurt in the dream. As a result, the dreamer generally wakes up hyperventilated, afraid, filled with anxiety, sweating, struggling for each breath he takes, heart pounding in his chest as if it were about to explode.

Most Often Causes Of Falling Dreams

Although there are hundreds of reasons why a person experiences dreams of falling, the most common are: guilt, fear of a situation, problem, crisis or dilemma the dreamer is experiencing in the natural when they have little or no control over or answers for. As a consequence, the individual often experiences feelings of helplessness physically, and emotionally both in the natural and in their dream states, thus opening the door to experiencing a falling dream or a dream of almost falling down.

As a rule, the extent of the depth of the falling dream is controlled by the severity of the guilt, situation, problem, crisis or dilemma the dreamer is experiencing in the natural and in their awakened state.

Although Falling Dreams can result as the result of a loss of power, fear, guilt or loss of control, there are is yet another aspect that often plays into the psyche of the dreamer and the dream equation, and that is self punishment. Because self guilt is a part of man's DNA, when the dreamer loses or is losing his power over a situation, guilt sets in and the dreamer subconsciously tries to punish himself in their dream state because he blames himself feeling that he is responsible for a problem and deserves to be experiencing punishment for events occurring in his life.

Other Causes For Falling Dreams

A rebellious attitude, fear, doubt, confusion, betrayal, deception, indecision and blindness to a truth make for propelling forces that have people falling in dreams. There also can be insecurity in a marriage, relationship, family member(s), career, workplace and finances.

Among other causes of Falling Dreams can be the result of an inferiority or inadequacy the dreamer has or feels he has in regards to his career, workplace, relationships, marriage that is causing the dreamer to feel he is not going to measure up to the challenges demanded of him.

Environment, emotions and circumstances can also cause dreams of falling because of shame, sorrow, lack of confidence, and lack of self pride the dreamer feels in himself in regards to his life and accomplishments. And because of these feelings of separation, disillusionment and discouragement, the dreamer feels that he is looked down on or is not or will not be included with others.

To the Christian, falling most often represents and is symbolic of a sin nature or a demonic attack on finances, career, workplace or a family member through others.
