Owen SterlingEating a light bulb occurs when the mind attempts to process a sharp or sudden realization through an internal mechanism that is not built for such intensity. This dream shows a mind trying to take in a sudden idea by making it part of its own substance, even when that substance is too jagged to be held easily.
The brain’s attempt to digest a thought that is too cutting creates an internal friction. This friction manifests as an awareness of the tension between a new mental breakthrough and the capacity to handle its sharp edges. The attempt to adopt such an idea results in a self-inflicted strain. The dreamer finds that clarity does not always come without a cost to the ease of thought.
Eating light bulbs suggests a pattern of repeated exposure to these sharp mental shifts. The frequency of such an event in a dream indicates that the mind is currently engaged in a sustained effort to make sense of complex or cutting information.

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.
