Teacher
The meaning of this dream depends on your
own experiences with teachers or teaching, and of course the
circumstances in your dream. The dream could be addressing your
issues with authority and approval. Also, you may have a need for
guidance and new learning.
Teeth
First look at the physical and note if you
are having any current dental problems. Otherwise, teeth usually
symbolize power and/or control. Animals use their teeth for
defense and nourishment, and show their teeth when angry. Human
beings are not much different, except that with the help of our
teeth we can speak clearly and properly. Look and see if you are
loosing or abusing power and control in any area of your life
(especially if you are loosing teeth in your dream, or if they
are breaking away). Old dream interpretations say that dreaming
about teeth is a bad omen which suggest financial difficulties.
Telephone
In our dreams the telephone could be a
symbol with which we are expressing a desire to communicate with
ourselves and with others. Our unconscious and/or intuition may
be trying give us messages that we have been unwilling to listen
to. If you don't want to answer the ring ask yourself why?
Tidal wave
Tidal waves or tsunamis, suggest that you
may be in a period of emotional upheaval. Anxiety, stress and
unconscious materials may be coming to the surface and effecting
your daily moods. Giant tidal waves from your dream may be
symbolic of current emotional unhappiness and psychological
stress, which are threatening to destroy you. The outcome of this
dream could reveal to you how much strength you have to
"ride" this storm. If you are not consumed, or you
survived the tidal waves of your dream, be assured that you will
survive the challenges of life and living. Also

Tiger
This large and very beautiful can can
symbolize femininity, power, anger, unforgiving vengeance, great
force and cunning. Tigers can not be ignored, and usually they
get exactly what they go after. Consider all of these
characteristic and try to see if they apply to your or anyone
else's current mood or character. See: Animals and Cats.
Tornado
Tornado is a violent storm in nature and it
may represent violent emotional storms in your dreams. If you
continually dream about being in a tornado consider the emotional
changes in your life and also the amount of anger and rage that
you may be currently experiencing. Tornadoes could also represent
disruptions and upsets in you immediate environment, and
specific, current issues or problems that may be overwhelming.
Train
Going on a train ride may be symbolic of
your life's journey. If you are the engineer, you may be
reassuring yourself in the dream state that you are in control of
a specific situation, or your life in general. Freud said that
the train is usually a phallic symbol, and that a train going
through a tunnel represents intercourse. Freud also said that
there are other possibilities to this symbol. For example if you
missed the train in your dream, you may be fearful of missing
important opportunities.
Tree
The tree in your dream is you. The health,
size and overall quality of the tree is indicative of how you
feel about yourself. This interpretation is to be made, only when
the tree is the focal point of the dream. Also, consider whether
the tree is alive with leaves, flowers or fruit, or if it's
barren. You may see trees in your dream as a part of a landscape,
or as a secondary symbol. At those times consider all of the
details as they may have different interpretations than the one
given here.
Turtle
These animals hold interesting symbolism.
Most people loved turtles in childhood and some do in adulthood.
The ideas that they convey are those of steadfastness and
caution. They move and change very slowly, and in your dream
about them, you may be expressing some of your reluctance to
forge ahead. The turtles have strong protective shells, which may
also be symbolic of your defense mechanisms or real life
protection with which you have surrounded yourself.
Tunnel
When interpreting this dream consider all of
the details and the quality of your experience. Did you see a
light at the end of the tunnel, or were you trapped in a tunnel
and could not determine your location. The tunnel could represent
a variety of things. If it was not an unpleasant experience it
may symbolize a transitional period and a passage into new levels
of understanding, or ways of living. Freud thought that any
tunnel like object represented the vagina.

Twins
If you dream entails giving birth to twins,
or you are dreaming about baby twins, please see
"birth". Twins in astrology represent opposites, and we
may use this symbolism to explain our dream. The twins could
suggest a duality of ideas, heart or even consciousness. The
details of the dream, will give you a clue to whether or not
these varying aspects are in harmony with each other, or in
conflict. The twins could also represent balance, which is
extremely important to our emotional and psychological health.
Old dream interpretation books say that dreaming about adult
twins foretells of "double trouble followed by double
