Dream dictionaries provide descriptions of symbols but these need to be considered in the correct context. A bull grazing peacefully in a lush green meadow is quite different from a bull in a china shop! Many dream dictionaries are translated from other languages and this causes confusion as many of our dreams feature puns and homophones. These often become lost in translation such as the amande/amende homophone mentioned here. Usually if you dream of almonds, it doesn’t actually mean that you need to take revenge. That really would be nuts!
