Dreams Related To clock

A wall clock

A wall clock in your dream likely serves to remind you not to take anything for granted. You may be too focused on trivial and worldly things. Or perhaps you are too wrapped up in work and duties that you oftentimes miss out on appreciating the small pleasures of day-to-day existence. There is also a possibility that you would neglect your friends and family in pursuit of your dreams. Perhaps you need to think about your priorities and the essential things, otherwise you could end up alone and miserable. Alternatively, the wall clock could also signal an unexpected event that has the potential to lead you to a completely different path.

Mother showing time on the clock

I am female, my mother in spirit came in my dream and showed me a small blue cover clock showing the time of 3 o'clock. What is the meaning of this please?

The spirit of your mother reveals your need for guidance. You are feeling out of control and having a hard time managing a demanding project as illustrated by the image of a clock. As such, 3 o'clock can have a personal meaning to you and this would reveal the hidden meaning behind it. But in general, 3 o'clock usually carries religious connotations. If this is relevant to you, then your subconscious could be telling you to have faith and believe that challenges are not given to you if you cannot handle them.

Observing time on a clock

Observing time on a clock is a dream that in itself can be interpreted in different ways, all of which depend on the clock's speed. If in the dream, the clock hands were spinning much faster than they should be, you may be feeling that time's going by too fast. Maybe there are facets of your life that are progressing too quickly for your liking, such as a job or a relationship. A different connotation of this version of the dream may involve an anxiety deriving from an aspiration, or desire, including sexual desires, which may not have been realized yet. You feel that time is running out and that terrifies you. On the other hand, if the clock's hands in the dream were moving too slow, you may be dreading an inevitable event coming into your life. The event in question may run the gamut from a deadly accident to a long-sought sexual encounter. A slow-turning clock in a dream may likewise foreshadow a long life ahead. The more specific the nuances of the clock, the more detailed the dream's message could become.

A stopped clock

Dreaming of a clock that has stopped often reveals the dreamer's poor time management skills.

A broken clock

Dreaming of a broken clock reveals intimacy issues with your current partner. You may be dissatisfied with your sex life for various reasons, one of which may be your partner's unwillingness to perform certain acts that turn you on. Perhaps your partner's lack of experience is also a factor. In that case, you may have to teach him or her to be more relaxed and uninhibited during sex in order to avoid being sexually frustrated. On the other hand, if you were just angry and annoyed at seeing the broken clock, then perhaps this vision also alludes to your impatient and domineering personality.

A clock showing midnight

Looking at a clock which shows the time as midnight in your dream usually does not bode well for your plans. The image of the clock showing midnight means important events you have been looking forward to would end up not happening.
