Going to the desert in a dream means the mind is preparing for a time of scarcity or a demanding stretch of life. This movement occurs when the brain is sorting through the necessity of leaving a current state to face an environment that offers little in the way of immediate sustenance or comfort.
The dream identifies a phase where the internal resources are being stretched thin. The brain is testing how the person functions when the familiar buffers are removed and only the core remains.
The dreamer finds that the journey involves a necessary confrontation with emptiness. This movement away from the known serves to clarify what is essential. Clarity often accompanies this thinning of circumstances.

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.
