We have all had a dream where we forget what happened the second we wake up. This can be a really frightening experience and nobody really knows why it happens. But there are a few different interpretations as to what forgetting in a dream signifies. The first of which is that it represents the confusion that you feel when you are trying to remember something important but just cannot.
The second interpretation is that it symbolizes being trapped within your own subconscious and not being able to escape, which is why these dreams are usually so vivid and detailed. This could be because you’re trying to make sense of things from your past or because you’re trying to fix some conflict within yourself or with someone else or for some other reason entirely.
Forgetting in a dream also signifies or represents how you tend to forget things in real life. You could be forgetting about something that is important to you, or you could be forgetting about your own feelings.
If forgetting in a dream is related to a specific event, then it might signify that the event didn’t matter to you after all. On the other hand, if you’re forgetting parts of your daydreams, it could signify that you’ve been busy and have not had time for yourself. If you’re forgetting people’s names, then it symbolizes a lack of connection with others or an old relationship that has fallen through.
