Trial Dream Meaning

Dream interpretation from 17 unique sources about Trial

If you are on trial and other people are judging you, the other people will usually represent parts of yourself. In other words, you are the judge and jury as well as the accused. Whatever the details of the dream (which may help you understand why you are declaring yourself guilty), bear in mind that guilt-feelings and self-denigration contribute nothing to your well-being or personal development; that all parts of you are of equal value insofar as their contributions are needed for personal wholeness; and that the conscience that judges you is usually parental and social expectations and prohibitions now functioning as mechanisms of your own psyche, and these ‘do’s’ and ‘don’tY themselves need to be judged in terms of whether they are life-enhancing or life-denying. [1]
If you see yourself sentenced to a trial in your dreams, it symbolizes the need to review your behavior, your way of treating people, or the way you focus your life projects. The trial indicates that you are not satisfied with your own behavior. In and of itself, the trial is a symbol of the fight between good and evil.

If you are in the role of judge rather than the accused, it means that soon you will take on a great responsibility.

The majority of oneiric oracles agree that this dream foretells legal disputes. [2]

Psychological / emotional perspective: To dream of a scenario where we are being prosecuted suggests that we feel that authority has us on trial and we must justify ourselves, usually from an emotional perspective, but sometime in our actions or demeanour. Trial by ordeal, such as the supposed witched went through in previous times, appearing as a dream image signifies that we may be feeling persecuted. [3]
Vision: If you are taking someone to court: you will get involved in a nasty business that comes to a “happy” ending only at the last minute.

If you are taken to court: your selfish behavior will be your undoing. Winning a court case: and you thought you didn’t have a chance! Losing a court case: try to make peace with your adversary7 or find a compromise.

Depth Psychology: See Court, Lawyer. [4]

At the heart of a trial is the principle of right and wrong, and the process of deciding what is true. You may dream about a trial when you are feeling guilty about something or when you are being accused of something you are innocent of.

The word “trial” is synonymous with any very challenging situation, and such a dream image may appear when you are facing anything in life that feels onerous and difficult. [5]

Dreams of a trial signify that you are assessing the innocence or guilt of yourself or someone whom has hurt you. You are integrating and grappling with your inner critic and judge, passing a verdict about an important situation that has just occurred in your life. Keep in mind that your greatest life lessons are usually learned through trial and error.

A trial in the spiritual sense is anything that tests our spiritual beliefs and understanding to the limits. Often such a dream will highlight our weakest points – sometimes ways in which we can be most judgemental – in which case we have the opportunity to reach more understanding in waking life. [7]
Material aspects: When in waking life we are on trial, such as on probation at the beginning of a job, images of legality such as justice, judges and so on can appear in dreams. Understanding the relevance of these images can help us to overcome our own doubts. [8]
Justice.

Authority.

Judgment or accusation.

Arguing.

Being on trial can represent feeling or fearing scrutiny or judgment, perhaps due to a particular action you’ve taken or are considering.

See also: Court, Courtroom, Justice, Attorney, Judge, Jury [9]

If you dream of being on trial, you are too self-critical and should be nicer to yourself.

If you attend or watch a trial in a dream, you haven’t yet made up your mind about whether you like someone you’ve met in real life. [10]

If you are the accused, pay close attention to what you are accused of.

If you are the accuser, take a look at what injustice has been done. You need to be objective, focused, and fair in your everyday life.

See also: Attorney. [11]

Dreaming of being on trial may indicate that the dreamer needs to be more accepting of himself or herself and less judgmental of others. [12]
1. Judgment, prosecution.

2. An experiment in behavior.

3. See­ing an injustice.

4. Very emotional period in life or situation. [13]

You have an admirer whose merits you have not hitherto valued. You would be wise to study and develop this friendship. [14]
Going through a test in your life. Need to remain detached to see what the lesson is. [15]
A literal trial may be revealed beforehand in order to lessen or avert [16]
