Being small in a dream is a way the mind handles a current reduction in the reach of one’s influence. When the brain rehearses a reduction in size, it is often attempting to integrate a recent experience of diminished influence or a perceived loss of command over a situation. This sorting process helps the mind work through a world where the usual ways of exerting control no longer seem to function.
The mechanism of this dream is a way for the psyche to calibrate its position when the surrounding world feels disproportionately large or demanding. This can be a heavy experience, as the dream shows a moment where the person feels overwhelmed by things that cannot be shifted or directed. Such a dream provides a way to examine these limits from a different perspective, which allows for a more grounded awareness of where one stands. The mind finds a way to accommodate these shifts in reach, making the current state of affairs easier to observe.
Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
