S2 Ep 2 – What Kind of Dream Was That? Understanding the Language of Your Dreams

Have you ever woken up from a dream and thought, “What kind of dream was that?” This episode launches a three-part series designed to help you understand how dreams communicate and how to begin interpreting them with clarity and confidence.

In Part 1, Tricia and Murray lay the foundation by exploring the language of dreams—because dreams speak in symbols, stories, and metaphors, not literal sentences.

Tricia shares Bruce’s dream, one he initially believed was prophetic but later realized was a counseling dream, highlighting why identifying the type and language of a dream is essential before interpretation. Murray then introduces the Three Rules of 3, focusing on the first key principle needed to understand dreams correctly.

Together, they unpack three primary “languages” dreams use:

• Biblical Language – Understanding symbolism through Scripture, including Proverbs 1:5–6 and the powerful imagery of the Lion and the Lamb in Revelation 5. Why does the symbol change, and what is God communicating?
  

• Cultural Language – How common expressions like “stuck in second gear” or “life in the fast lane” show up in dreams, with biblical insight from Gideon’s story.
  

• Personal Language – Why the same symbol (dogs, baggage, cars, windows) can mean very different things to different people, based on personal experience and context.
  

The episode closes with encouraging dream stories that highlight God’s heart to speak life, hope, and direction—reminding us that dreams are meant to draw us closer, not leave us confused.

Part 2 and Part 3 will build on this foundation, helping you recognize dream types and discern whether a dream speaks to your past, present, or future.
