TELEPATHY May in a few cases be real telepathy during sleep. But could symbolise sympathy, agreement, understanding, or sudden insight into yourself or others.

TELEPHONE Communication or contact with aspects of yourself or others. If you do not answer the phone, it may suggest you are unwilling to listen to your inner feelings or intuitive advice, or are avoiding contact or communication with someone else. No one on the other end suggests feeling isolated and alone.

Emergency calls: A desperate attempt to be heard, or a cry for help in a difficult situation or feeling state.

TELESCOPE Trying to understand something more clearly, getting a more overall view of your life. It may also symbolise making something big out of a small experience, as a mountain out of a molehill.

TELEVISION/TV What you feel, understand or intuit about what is going on in other people's lives or the world. Looking at the drama taking place in your own life that you may have overlooked. The strategy you use to blank out the world and relax.

TEMPERATURE See: Cold; Heat.

TEMPLE See: Church.

TEMPTATION Conflict between different aspects of self - perhaps sexual urges and social fears, or personal boundaries.

TEN Ten represents a new beginning on a higher level. A fresh start, almost as if from scratch, but all the past experience lies behind us. The seed, falling from the pod, and growing, carries with it the essence of the old plant. So it symbolises reincarnation, the starting again, under the influence of past experience and karma. The astrological sign is Capricorn, the priest or ambassador. It rules the knees and circulation, and the tenth house governs careers and notoriety. See: Numbers.

TENNIS See: Games.

TENT Your relationship with natural forces in your life. A temporary state of being, attitude or experience. Or an attitude of changeability, lack of perseverance, not building a solid life.

TERROR Inability to face or cope with those emotions, fears, ideas or urges represented in the dream. It is important to find where you felt that sort of terror in the past. This releases its hold on you. This is not easy, because many memories have never been verbalised, or occurred either prior to learning speech, or when you were under anaesthetic. But they can be realised through steady dreamwork.

TEST/TESTS/TESTING An attempt to deal with difficult questions or problems which life poses. Fear of inadequacy or of being tested. Comparing yourself with others, or with the opinion of others. Doubts concerning fitness and capability in life, marriage, or parenthood. Stress in connection with a competitive job or situation. Responses still active from school experiences.

Testing equipment: Possibly something to do with some aspect of your body, or perhaps a skill you have. It may also refer to sexual capability.

Medical tests: Concerns about your health. Or pleasure in being examined.

THREE It is symbolised by the triangle, and represents a unity of the positive and negative to create a new condition. Thus we see it as mother and father bringing forth child, which is a mixture of both but different from either. So it might represent family. Creativity out of opposites or opposition. It can also suggest non-sexual relationship when there are three people - three's a crowd..

THRESHOLD Beginning of a new experience, idea, of life or decision. To cross the threshold is to begin the new thing, so it deal with possible change. A wife is carried across the threshold to prevent her stumbling, turning back, or escaping.

THUNDER Warning of stormy emotions, anger.

TICKET To get the ticket is to get the idea, method, or capability. A ticket also represents the ability to pass through barriers or difficulties in life, as the price has been paid in life experience or self-giving. It can also mean a sense of validity and ease, or lack of it.

TIDAL WAVE/TSUNAMI Any release of emotional or sexual energy. The reason this image is used is that when we feel enormous release of emotions such as might happen when we fall in love, have a baby, or are publicly condemned, our ego often feels carried along by the experience rather than in control. We may have learned how to ride such waves as surfers do. This requires confidence, daring and balance. If we can do it we can open ourselves to much greater range of feeling or change than if we felt threatened. Even happiness may be repressed due to feeling threatened. Anxiety or depression is one of these enormous waves that may threaten to engulf us, and so is one of the human conditions the tidal wave represents.

TIDE Opportunity or power of events. The ebb and flow of enthusiasm, desires, cravings, ambition or energy. See: Moon, Sea.

TIE/TIED/TYING Creating bonds, either in the form of unifying, binding or restricting. Trying to mend something or keep things together. See: String.

TIGER/TIGRESS Power, anger, sexual power, inner anxiety or terrifying urges. Fear of another person’s anger or forcefulness. Sometimes the power of a mother's protectiveness. A woman’s anger or sexual craving. See other entry on tiger.

TIME - The passage of time in our life; our age; our sense of ease or pressure. There are certain times of day that we have deeply ingrained habitual responses to - such as morning coffe is for some people, luchtime, time to go to work or end it. So time in a dream might refer to one of those things for you.

Idioms: It's about time; all in good time; at one time; do time; for the time being; half the time; gain time; have no time for someone; lean times; time after time; time flies; behind the times; big time.

TIN Softness. Protection. If a can it can suggest storage of memories or nourishing feelings and experiences.

TOAD Feelings that might make us uncomfortable. Also the deeply biological processes of your body, of reproduction and transformation - the tadpole to toad process of conceptions and birth. See: Frog.

TOILET The actual room: Many people find their only privacy in the toilet, so it can depict their need for, or feelings about, privacy.

If it is a bathroom and toilet: Possibly includes the need for cleaning up your sexual attitudes or general attitude to others and self.

Toilet bowl: The part of you that deals with your body wastes, and the emotions you need to discharge. It can also represent the female sexual organ; 'sexpot'.

Going to the toilet: Expressing yourself; releasing feelings, often creative; letting go of tightly held attitudes, the past, or sexuality; acceptance of your own natural drives and needs.

What you put down the toilet: What you consider to be the least important or most unpleasant aspects of yourself or your experience; what you want to get out of our life. See: Faeces, Cesspool, Urine.
