What does it mean when you dream about eggs?

Of all the things to dream about, one of the most interesting and tricky, involve dreams about eggs.

Eggs are so commonplace and mundane that most people think that their nighttime visions involving these food items are nothing to worry about or be concerned with.

But what does it mean when you dream about eggs?

The answer will probably surprise you.

General meaning of dreams about eggs

When you dream about eggs you are actually dreaming about a symbol of fertility, and the newness that it brings.

Anything that is alive came out of either an egg or something that operates like an egg.

This is a fact that is hard coded into our existence.

Accordingly, when you see the eggs emphasized in your dream this indicates that you have a tremendous amount of potential.

This potential only needs certain conditions for it to come to life.

Just like an egg needs sperm for it to turn into a wide variety of animals whether we’re talking about mammals, lizards, or fish, eggs are the medium for life.

It symbolizes fertility, it is the foundation for life.

Another general meaning of eggs indicates opportunities.

We’re not talking about opportunities that only need to be built upon or scaled up.
We’re talking about completely new opportunities.

It’s as if you start with the building blocks, and come up with something new or even surprising.

Finally, eggs symbolize the transformation of potential to the actual birth.

This is one of the most important meanings of this dream symbol.

You have to understand that all people have potential, but very few live up to that potential.

For whatever reason, we did not put in the proper amount of time, effort, and yes, sacrifice to turn our potential into things that can be a blessing to others, as well as a blessing to ourselves and our loved ones.

This is one of the biggest struggles and frustrations of life because we know deep down inside what potential we possess.

We know what we could have done should have done would have done and for whatever reason, we failed to live up to our fullest potential.

We have to live with this disappointment for the rest of our lives.

This is where a lot of conflicted and interesting emotions come in because how do you contain that sense of disappointment?

How do you get over that letdown?

And depending on your coping mechanism and your approach, it can have a positive or more likely negative effect on the people around you.

What does it mean to dream of raw eggs?

The dream meaning of raw eggs involves untapped potential.

By raw egg I’m talking about eggs that are fertilized, these are not sterile eggs.

When you hold these eggs up against that strong light, you will see several red dots that indicate fertilization.

The problem is it’s still in egg form.

It symbolizes untapped potential, either you did not see this potential in your waking life or you already know but you have other bigger fish to fry.

Your priorities may not line up with your potential and that’s why they remain untapped.

Raw eggs in your dreams can also mean that there are opportunities surrounding you.

The problem is you’re focused on something that has reached a point of diminishing returns, you keep pounding at it, and you keep devoting day after day of your life to it.

But the truth is, whatever yield that you’re getting, is the best you could expect.

Don’t expect anything more.

All this time, you have all these other opportunities that yield a better return on effort.

At some point, y you’re going to realize what these opportunities are.

The question is, are you going to wait until your back is against the wall and you have no other options?

Or are you going to be proactive and be more curious as to what else is out there and possibly start the ball rolling?

It’s up to you.

What does it mean to dream of broken eggs?

When you see broken eggs in your dream, this doesn’t mean that your potential for greatness or achievement is gone.

What it means is that for a variety of reasons, and because of certain decisions you’ve made, they’re going to unfold differently.

You’re still going to be tapping into your potential but the manifestation is going to take a different shape, you may end up in a different place.

The question is are you going to be happy with where you end up?

Are you going to adjust?

Because a lot of people don’t want to play with the hands they are dealt.

They would like to imagine that they have two aces so they come up with all sorts of justifications and excuses but in reality, their life is what it is.

You have to deal with the hand that you are dealt, you can’t imagine a different life that is based on your potential that you choose to not tap.

You have to look at your life based on the decisions that you made and you have to accept what exists.

When you dream of broken eggs, your subconscious is really trying to communicate to you that there’s a part of you that imagines itself free or above your actual reality.

Maybe the reason why you’re frustrated with certain areas of your life is that you choose to see the world based on how you think it should operate instead of how it really is.

When you see broken eggs, understand that you have set in motion a certain chain of events.

At some very low level, it draws strength from an aspect of your potential.

You don’t fully tap your potential.

You don’t fully uncover its power and as a result, your life is unfolding in a different way than you originally imagined and now you’re dealing with all sorts of coping mechanisms because of that.

What does it mean to dream of eating eggs?

If you see yourself eating eggs in your dream, your subconscious is trying to draw your attention to the reality that whether you accept it or not, and whether you’re aware of it or not, your life has actually gotten easier.

You might be thinking that this is not that big of a revelation, but you’d be surprised.

A lot of people enter this “struggle mode”.

Everything has a sense of desperate urgency.

They often find themselves in a “fight or flight” emotional state.

When in reality, they don’t need to do that, in reality, the worst is over.

They have gone through the hardest or most challenging part of a certain stage in their life and things have actually settled down.

When the main focus of your dream involves you eating eggs, your subconscious is trying to wake you up to this fact.

You don’t have to stay in that panic, emotional mode because it can make you toxic, it can make you miss opportunities, and it can also push you to focus on what you can grab today instead of what you can build for tomorrow.

People in that panicked or desperate mindset develop tunnel vision.

They can only see what’s in front of them, they don’t plan ahead, they don’t look at the future, they just focused on surviving.

Well, your subconscious is telling you, that things have improved to the point that you don’t have to be in survival mode anymore.

You can start to build, you can start to hope, and you can start to move on.

What does it mean to dream of easter eggs?

If you’re seeing easter eggs in your dream, your subconscious is telling you that you have
hidden talents that you haven’t been sharing with the rest of the world.

Just like a hidden easter egg message in a video game or in a movie, you have easter eggs hidden in plain sight.

You have to line up your desire to improve your life with a desire to explore your hidden potential.

A lot of people think that they are just another face in the crowd, they too easily dismiss themselves as “generic”, just another cog in the machine, just another mouth to feed.

Of course, people will not tell you this to your face but based on how they behave and how they perform at work, and elsewhere this is what they believe about themselves.

It’s really too bad because most of us have a lot to offer the rest of the world but the problem is we can’t be bothered to figure out what it is that we can offer.

You have a lot of hidden potentials.

Put in the time to explore it.

Put in the time to cultivate these because not only can you help make the world a better place, but you could be a happier person inside that world.

What does it mean to dream of breaking fresh eggs?

If you see yourself cracking open fresh eggs, this indicates that you are making your own luck.

There’s an old saying, “The harder I work, the luckier I get”, you have to understand that luck involves being at the right place doing the right things at the right time with the right people to produce your desired outcome.

That’s a lot of work.

That’s a lot of preparation.

I can understand things falling into place by random serendipity every once in a while but to achieve constant “luck” takes work.

Your subconscious is telling you that there is a direct connection between the effort that you put in and the “good luck” that you stumble upon.

You can improve your overall luck by simply being prepared.

What if I told you that the people who seem to be always at the right place at the right time with the right people to receive the universe’s blessings, don’t do that by accident?

They have prepared so when things line up, they are ready to claim the opportunity.

Compare that with somebody who’s just completely clueless or simply doesn’t care and it’s a 50/50 proposition, sometimes they enjoy good luck, the other 50% they completely miss it, or they settle for cents on the dollar.

Do you see how this works?

A little bit of preparation goes a long way.

If you want to improve your luck, be mentally, psychologically, physically, and most importantly, spiritually prepared.

I know this might come as a shock but the universe is trying to pour abundant blessings into your life.

I’m not talking about the future.

I’m talking about right here right now.

The reason why you’re not enjoying it is that your mental wallet or the spiritual basket that you’re using to collect that blessing is very small.

Be prepared.

Accept the fact that you can be blessed.

Give yourself permission to be blessed.

What does it mean to see a nest of eggs in a dream?

If you come across a nest of eggs in your dream, pay attention to the context.

If some wild birds had a nest and you stumble upon the nest, this indicates that because of your preparation and the hard work you put into other opportunities, these new previously unseen or hidden opportunities have manifested themselves.

This is not an accident.

By preparing for opportunities that you normally anticipate or are aware of, you put yourself in a position to recognize opportunities that others may be blind to.

If the nest in your dream is a commercial nest or an egg layer nest on a farm, your subconscious is telling you that you are become more systematic in handling your day-to-day life and this is going to lead to consistent and predictable success.

It’s one thing to stumble upon good fortune every once in a while by being spiritually prepared.

That is well and good.

But if you want to be consistently “lucky”, you have to have a system, you have to have a way of filtering, slicing, and dicing the data that you face every day and prioritizing them so you can figure out which opportunities are worth pursuing.

That’s how you achieve consistent and reliable success on a day-to-day basis.

What does it mean to dream of ostrich eggs?

Your subconscious is telling you that there’s a part of you that thinks small.

You focus primarily on what you think you already know and you fail to scale up your estimate of the world’s opportunities because your baseline is too small.

Let’s put it this way, you will not appreciate the value of an ostrich egg if your mental frame of reference is that of a hummingbird egg.

Do you understand?

We mentally “anchor” our reality.

And if we have a very small starting point or frame of reference, we don’t do ourselves any favors because whatever we claim from the universe is always going to be smaller than it should be.

As I mentioned above, the universe is trying to pour all these blessings into your life, you can take the form of a better partner, better health, a more rewarding career, a higher net worth, you name it.

The problem is your mindset is much smaller than it needs to be.

Accordingly, the basket that you’re trying to collect all these blessings with can only capture a fraction so you settle for crumbs that are not a well-lived life, that is not living up to your fullest potential.

That path does not lead to real deep fulfillment.

Learn to think big.

Because a lot of this has to do with insecurities, a lot of this has to do with a deep sense of inferiority.

Maybe part of yours thinking, “Well, that top guy in our class, he’s the one prepared to claim all the universe’s blessings. I’m just the guy who barely passed. What right do I have to demand grace and blessing?”.

The truth is, in certain instances and in certain areas of your life just being able to name the blessing starts the process of qualifying you for claiming that blessing.

The problem is we don’t even get to that point, we don’t step up instead, we focus on the crumbs and we think that “If I just settle for a little bit, slightly bigger crumb, then I’m good”.

Talk about all the wasted opportunities and also talk about the pattern that you’re setting for your children or the people who look up to you.

You’re training them to be small.

Ostrich eggs in dreams symbolize big opportunities that are born or manifested from big thinking.

This means boldness.

What does it mean to dream of cracked rotten eggs?

One of the hazards of buying eggs is if you get a carton of eggs where one is slightly cracked, you can keep it in the fridge for a while but it’s already starting to rot and by the time you get around to that egg, you find out too late.

If you bought a bad egg you probably can’t take it back to the store.

Are there parts of your personality that poison your potential?

Is there a part of your total persona that contaminates your attitude which in turn infects other people?

Don’t underestimate the power of personality and attitudes because they can be infectious.

Have you ever gone into a subway car where somebody’s laughing?

Chances are your mood would lighten because you’d want to laugh too, you don’t exactly know why they’re laughing but the fact that they’re happy and laughing lifts your mood.

We are social animals.

We pick up on signals and we bounce it off and if somebody comes to you and they’re frowning or they have a scowl you gonna bounce that signal back.

On the other hand, if somebody has wide eyes and a big smile on their face, and it’s beaming with positivity, you can’t help but be drawn to that person and bounce back that same energy.

When you dream of cracked eggs, there is some sort of contamination in your life.

Maybe you’re watching YouTube channels that fill you with negativity, suspicion, possibly even resentment, or envy.

Maybe it’s your social media diet, or worse yet, maybe there’s somebody in your family or your circle of friends that is a steady source of negativity.

The key here is to first identify the source of the infection and the second is to take steps to contain it, neutralize it, counter it, or divert it so it works for you instead of against you.

I’m not advocating you cut off people from your life instead, admit that they are being toxic and figure out a way to possibly channel that otherwise negative energy.

What does it mean to dream of breaking an egg perfectly?

When you break an egg perfectly, the yolk and white are still together it’s as if they just flopped from inside the egg to whatever container you’re putting them in on the surface, this seems like a very positive sign, in fact, that even hints of a great deal of skill and mastery.

But in reality, it’s more complicated than you think.

There is a part of you that believes that if somebody is successful, it’s almost always at your expense.

I know people will not admit to this readily, but the next time you check your Facebook timeline or your Twitter feed and somebody announces something really positive like a promotion, or they post pictures of their vacation, audit your emotions.

A lot of times you are not angry or upset at that person instead, you will feel left behind.

You feel that there are just so many blessings in this universe and for somebody to enjoy what seems like a larger chunk of that blessing, your share or portion of the universe’s bounty necessarily gets smaller.

Again, few people would admit to this, but we all have it.

Some would readily label this as jealousy or envy but it’s deeper than that.

Understand that the world doesn’t have to be a zero-sum game.

Just because their slice of the pie got bigger doesn’t mean yours have to be smaller because there’s not just one pie, it’s layered one on top of the other.

In many cases, the more people cut up the pie, the larger it gets.

So stop putting yourself in that situation mentally, because you’re not doing yourself any favors.

Instead, when you dream of somebody breaking an egg perfectly, marvel at their mastery and understand that if they can do it, you can do it too.

What does it mean to dream of quail eggs?

Quail eggs are very small and quite yummy.

But when it comes to dream symbology it indicates immaturity.

Now, please understand that there’s a big difference between being childlike and being childish.

If you’ve been reading this blog I’ve been suggesting to readers that they should be more in touch with their childlike nature because the power of their inner child can help them unlock their full potential.

The problem is our childish immaturity.

This is the part of ourselves that refuses to grow up.

This is the part of ourselves that when confronted with a setback or a challenge, picks up our ball and goes home, you don’t want to play.

When you dream of quail eggs, your subconscious is trying to draw your attention to your childish aspects and we all have this, nobody is fully mature, nor fully childish.

We’re all a mix of both.

What is your childish aspect?

Is it your zero-sum game mindset?

Is it your crab mentality?

Is it your tendency to sabotage yourself?

Is it your tendency to engage in emotional tantrums, because you’re impatient?

Whatever the case may be, you need to deal with your childish aspect and the best way to do that is to put yourself in a tough situation that pushes you to grow up.

If you have a problem with patients, then put yourself in a situation where you are forced to be patient.

If you have a tough time, being kind to others, put yourself in a situation where part of the job is to be kind, like be a nurse or be an assistant to a nurse, that kind of thing.

What does it mean to dream of a duck egg?

Depending on the type of duck egg you’re dreaming of, if you’re dreaming of a salted duck egg this indicates that the relationship that you have with that special person in your life tends to look backward.

You tend to focus on nostalgia.

Pay close attention to your conversations, they talk about stuff that you’ve done in the past, they talk about the laughs that you’ve shared in the past, and that’s going to be a problem.

Because if you’re still in a relationship with that person, your relationship must be all about the eternal present, not the past because a lot of people end up setting up impossible metrics for their relationship by constantly thinking about or pining for the past.

The reality is the past, let it go.

Make new memories here and now.

If the duck egg in your dream is not salted, this can indicate that your love life is interesting, to say the least.

It is neither fish nor fowl like a duck.

The duck is half the time on the water and half the time on land but it has potential.

And the reason why you feel kind of not exactly fully committed to your relationship is you don’t exactly quite know where it’s going to go.

The key here is to decide whether you’re going to be fully invested in your relationship.

You have to make a decision.

Are you going to be on the land or are you going to be on the water?

There’s no 50/50.

And if you are a person who is fully in love with your partner, this can indicate that you sense this reluctance on their part.

What is the solution?

Communication.

You have to communicate with that person.

What are you expecting from the relationship?

How do you define the relationship?

And if you see eye to eye then you have something solid to build on.

But if your relationship is just based on casual sex or financial arrangements, then you have to be clear with each other.

It can still work if you are okay with that level of commitment.

What does it mean to dream of scrambled eggs?

There is such a thing as shiny object syndrome.

Put simply, this is when you work on a project, get all excited about it, put in the time, effort and energy and before it even succeeds, or before you even have a chance of succeeding in the long term, another”bigger, better and brighter opportunity” appears on the horizon.

So what do you do?

You drop everything, and you take advantage of that new opportunity.

You jump on, and you put in everything that you’ve got and after all that blood, sweat, and tears, yet another opportunity comes so you repeat the same process.

Now, you may be asking yourself, “Well, what’s wrong with that? Isn’t that what a lot of people do?”

Precisely, and what happens to those people?

When they reach the age 60, 65, 70, you name the age, they look over their shoulders, and what do you think they see?

They see a long trail of the carcasses of half-baked, half-developed, half-completed projects in their lives.

I’m not just talking about businesses, I’m not just talking about startup ideas, or educational prospects and projects.

I’m talking about relationships, I’m talking about other people.

Imagine that, a long trail of half-completed projects, your life is essentially a collection of unfinished business.

And what do you think your emotional state will be for most of the time, as you stare off into the horizon?

Remember, mortality is a reality.

That’s right, it will be filled with regret.

You will be thinking about what could have been if I just focus on one thing.

When you’re dreaming of scrambled eggs, your subconscious is projecting the imagery of dream symbology to you in terms of contrasts.

The scrambled egg represents in this context your need to focus on one thing because if you have too much on your plate things are going to crash and burn.

Because the things that you should be prioritizing, don’t get enough attention, and the stuff that you should be avoiding gets too much attention.

Do you see how this works?

What does it mean to dream of eating eggs with soldiers?

If you find yourself in an unusual situation in your dream while you’re eating eggs with soldiers, this indicates that you have to let go of your old beliefs.

You have to turn your back on the old ideas that you may have or old worldviews and just move on.

A lot of people have a tough time doing this because of pride.

They fall into this mental fallacy where they think they can make things work out by doubling down on a bad investment or a bad choice.

It doesn’t work that way.

That makes just as much sense as me paying for a ticket, watching the first five minutes of the movie and realizing that it sucks, and then deciding to stay to watch the rest of the movie because somehow I hope that by me staying the movie will magically improve.

Does that even make any sense?

There is such a thing as a sunk cost.

It’s not going to improve.

For example, if you buy a crypto scam, (there are too many of them nowadays) and you got in another $1,000 and it crashes all the way to point 0001.

Do you think by you staying things will improve?

Do you think by you holding that crypto instead of cutting your losses and moving on to other projects that have a higher chance of succeeding things will improve?

When you dream of eating eggs with soldiers understand that you have to let go of old beliefs where you do claim new beginnings.

You have to fight your battles wisely.

What does it mean to dream of boiled eggs?

I don’t know about you but I love boiled eggs.

I love boiled eggs on salad, love boiled eggs and soup.

Boiled eggs are great.

They go with everything.

I also like them plain, just roll them on some grains of rock salt, yummy.

But in a dream context boiled eggs mean boredom.

I know shocking, right?

Well, at least it’s a shock to me.

This dream symbol means that you feel that you’ve struck some sort of routine and it seems that things are not going to change.

Sure you’re being materially benefited or your creature needs or more than taken care of but the part of you that is looking for adventure isn’t being satisfied.

It just seems so plain vanilla.

Well, the truth is, it’s all how you read your situation because you may be reading this from middle America, and you can look out the window and you can see your nicely manicured Suburban Lawn.

But please understand that there are so many people that would kill to be in the same position as you.

It all depends on your attitude because if you want to be bored, you will be bored.

It doesn’t matter if you hopping on a jet, night after night to go to exciting spots all over the world, surrounded by supermodels and the multi-billionaires who want you to get in on their awesome deals for absolutely no money.

You will find a way to get bored if you want to be bored.

It’s a mindset.

So when you’re dreaming of boiled eggs, your subconscious is telling you that your boredom is a choice.

So take a look at your daily routine.

Find something to be excited about.

Reignite that sense of possibility and adventure that your inner child has because ultimately the solution to aboard mindset is to reawaken that childlike nature we all have.

Again, I can’t emphasize this enough, because when I was a kid, in the middle of February, I would look forward to Christmas.

And by the time Christmas came, I was just beside myself and happy.

I grew up in a country where Christmas started in September and ended in the middle of January.

We had a full quarter of the calendar dedicated to Christmas and the Christmas spirit and it’s that sense of anticipation that made the year worthwhile.

It doesn’t matter what kind of natural disasters the year brought, maybe it’s a typhoon, maybe it’s some drought, maybe it’s a manmade disaster, like a riot or something else.

But it didn’t matter because Christmas was just right around the corner.

That’s how powerful the sense of anticipation is and you need to reignite that.

Your childlike nature has that and if you are bored doing stuff that a lot of people would love to do, then there’s something with the mindset that you have chosen.

Find something to be excited about that triggers your sense of adventure because life is too short to live bored.
