Masturbation
Universal Landscape: Self-expressed sexuality.
Dreaming Lens: Were you masturbating in the dream? Was someone else masturbating you? Were you masturbating someone else? Were you watching the act of masturbation?
Personal Focus: Any image that involves sexuality is going to be complex and is best interpreted by at least starting with the symbolic meaning first, and breaking down the image to its basic parts. Masturbation has a specific purpose, which is to induce orgasm. There are two functions that might be assigned to orgasm. One is the pleasurable relief from stress that it provides and the other serves to remind the masturbator of their sexuality. The Dreaming Lens will offer some insight as to which direction to go with your interpretation. Also of importance is the current state of your sex life and your relationship to your sexuality in general.
If there is another person involved, consider him or her as a Character Aspect of your own personality. If you are watching someone masturbate (or you are masturbating someone else), then the qualities you assign this person may be the part of you that has access to elements of your sexuality at the time of this dream. The same is true if someone is masturbating you; however, this distinction connects more to an aspect of your personality that may be trying to stimulate a sexual response in you. The gender of this other person should be considered as well, no matter what your sexual preference. A man connects to the masculine principle of taking action whereas a woman embodies the feminine principle of being receptive.
The human sex drive contains the same power as the creative instinct. Masturbation in a dream may not necessarily be expressing the need to be sexual as much as the need to be creatively expressive. Look to where your life might be calling you to wake up your sense of passion. (See also Sex).
