Dream Book Alcohol: what alcohol, drunk people and fulfilled stories mean in dreams

Alcohol in a dream is always a strong emotional symbol. But its meaning depends entirely on the context. Being drunk or intoxicated in a dream means that the dream character does not adequately perceive what is happening to them in life at the moment. However, these can be states of a person caused by both positive events and negative, adverse ones. This is a fundamental point.

Being intoxicated in a dream by wine or champagne is one thing. Because it is joyful, and in the dream the person experiences positivity. And it is quite another thing to be “dead drunk” or “drunk to death,” as people say. Because in this case the person has stopped thinking rationally and being aware of what is happening due to being unable to cope emotionally with what is happening in their life.

If a person is intoxicated and at the same time looks beautiful, happy, glad, satisfied – the event is good. And it is precisely because of these positive circumstances that they “lost their head.” Yes, they cannot bring their emotions under control, but it is precisely because of happiness that their “head is spinning.”

This is often dreamed by people in love. And people who have had something radically important, significant happen in their life may also see this. It is precisely a happy event, and because of it they have “lost their mind.” The plot of the dream usually contains information about the event itself.

What different types of alcohol mean in a dream

Strong alcohol is a symbol of a certain stressful situation, when a person drinks it and then cannot control themselves. Which as a consequence leads to irrational perception and actions on their part.

For example, often in dreams that came true, strong alcohol was seen in a negative aspect, and afterwards some tragic or quite shocking, stressful events occurred. A person experiences them so intensely that the surrounding world ceases to exist for him for a while.

If in the dream the alcohol was “light”: sparkling wine, champagne, a strong drink (but one that men usually drink in small quantities just to relax – brandy, cognac, liqueurs, etc.), – the dream means situations when in exactly the same way a person will be celebrating something, marking an occasion, relaxing.

Dreams about alcohol and spirits that are shared with another person or people – are about relationships with those same people.

A dream about cognac and stress that came true

One of the participants said: in the dream she was drinking cognac with cola, making a cocktail, and was very drunk. The dream came true quickly, the next day. Everything exactly as in the dream. There was very strong stress, and my nerves were frayed all day.

This dream shows the negative aspect of strong alcohol. Cognac with cola – a strong drink that leads to loss of control. The participant indeed experienced severe stress, which knocked her off balance.

A dream about a drunk man and the death of his wife that came true

Another participant said: in the dream the man was in a state of very severe alcohol intoxication. In real life, a day later his wife died. The dream showed his stressful state.

This dream is a classic example of how alcohol in a dream points to a strong emotional shock. The man was so depressed that his subconscious showed his state through the image of alcohol intoxication. The tragedy that happened a day later confirmed that the dream was a warning about his emotional state.

A dream that came true about a drunk father-in-law and his death

I dream of my father-in-law, who says to me and my husband about himself: “I will die soon!”, I start crying, then he repeats his words. The picture changes, and I am standing in front of the door of the apartment of a woman with whom my father-in-law is in contact in real life. She opens the door for me, very drunk, around her right eye there is a black circle drawn with a pencil, and she says: “And here we are commemorating Kolya.” Then she gives me half a bottle of vodka. It is dark outside, and I walk home.

Realization

In reality, my father-in-law had a stroke. It was his first warning of death. He lay in intensive care for several days, but did not survive. The first to be informed of his death was the woman with whom he lived, and she then informed them.

The drunk woman in this dream is not simply drunk. She is commemorating her father-in-law, even though he is still alive. This is a warning of his imminent death. The vodka she gives is a symbol of the stress and loss that are yet to be endured.

A dream that came true about an alcoholic uncle

A participant said: she met a guy, and at that time she begins to dream of her uncle, who has problems with alcohol. She thought: interesting, why did he appear in a dream. Once, then twice, then three times. She became worried, why was he appearing in dreams. And at that very time the guy began to show hints that he liked to drink. After a short time she realized that he was really a future alcoholic, and she broke off contact. After that, her uncle stopped appearing in dreams.

This dream shows how the subconscious uses the image of a familiar alcoholic to warn that a new person in one’s life has the same problem. The uncle kept appearing in dreams until the participant understood the essence of the warning and ended the relationship.

What beer means in a dream

Beer is a low-alcohol drink. It points to a situation where a person wants to relax but at the same time maintain control. In one of the dreams, the participant says to a man: “I really want a beer, let’s go to a cafe.” In life, she drinks practically nothing alcoholic except beer, in order to relax and at the same time control herself.

In this dream, the man orders beer, but one of the small glasses falls, the beer spills on the floor, and he doesn’t pay attention. This indicates that in reality the man doesn’t notice some important details. He literally clings to the participant, won’t let her go. She feels attraction, but also an inner conflict.

The answer to this dream: men, by their very nature, will always desire intimacy immediately. And here a moment of doubt comes for the woman: “I want to, but it pricks.” With her mind she understands that the man is barely an acquaintance, yet in fact she is afraid to refuse him direct access. She is afraid because she thinks that this will be the end of it and the relationship won’t happen.

In reality, this isn’t such a complicated question. It can easily be resolved both for oneself and for others. Learn to refuse gently and put someone in their place without humiliating male dignity. A normal man will always appreciate this.

A dream that came true about red liqueur and success

A participant recounted a dream: she is in a large room, high ceiling, large windows, lots of light. She is in a joyful mood, practically jittery with excitement. There is a large table, and she keeps bringing and piling various candies in bright wrappers onto it. She has strewn the whole table with candies. Next to her at the table appeared a young man, very pleasant to her. He is a programmer.

The young man places on the table a sealed bottle of champagne and a bottle of liqueur filled to 1/3. He pours her the liqueur into a beautiful glass. The liqueur is red and seems to glow with a golden light. The young man explains: “The champagne is for everyone, but the liqueur is for you.” She sees a plate of cream eclairs on the table next to her.

Realization

The dream occurred on March 1. And on March 2, the participant received a call and was invited to take part in an exhibition dedicated to March 8. She gladly agreed. She was very excited about this event. Due to the pandemic, the traditional Christmas exhibition had not taken place, and she had been very upset then. Therefore, from the offer she received there really was a jittery excitement, just as in the dream.

She brought all her works to the exhibition and beautifully arranged her place – these are the various candies in bright wrappers. The programmer young man, pleasant to her, is her craft. She has not been doing creative work for very long, which is why the young man is young. A programmer – because she was literally reprogrammed to come out of isolation and move forward.

For the other exhibition participants it was simply a celebration; champagne was prepared for them. She was a success, her items were bought, admired, and people took her phone number to place orders. This is the fiery-red liqueur. Why was the bottle filled to 1/3? Because usually such exhibitions run for 3 days, and this one lasted 1 day.

Liqueur is a sweet, high-grade, strong alcoholic drink made from fruit, sugar, and essential oils. In life, she practically never drinks alcohol. She had never drunk liqueur at all. Here her emotions from joy and happiness were reflected — she was as if drunk. The room was exactly as in the dream — an exhibition center.

This dream is an example of positive alcohol. Champagne is for everyone, liqueur is for her. The red glowing liqueur is her personal success, her achievement.

What the state of intoxication in a dream means

If there are several characters in a dream, the dream will immediately show the participants of the event. Who else will share the joy, or with whom you will share it. For example, when you drink champagne in a dream. Since it is champagne that is the symbol of the dream, meaning an occasion to celebrate a joyful event, an accomplishment, an achievement.

A drunken man (an acquaintance) in a dream means that he is in a strong emotional shock. The cause must be determined by the plot of the dream. Usually in such dreams there are always accompanying clue symbols.

A drunken female acquaintance often dreams of a scandal and a confrontation. If in the dream there is a drunken unfamiliar woman (as an aspect), the dream may be a harbinger of illness of a nervous nature, psychosomatic in character. This is especially indicated by the symbol of a naked and drunken woman. Here, the additional aspect of the symbol is shame and disgrace.

Drunken deceased, the dead, or corpses dream of troubles that have “surfaced from the past.” Although you thought they had long been done with.

If you dream of a drunkard who also drinks in life, in the dream he means either himself, or is a prototype of another person who will also start drinking.

How to distinguish good alcohol in a dream from bad

To correctly understand a dream about alcohol, you need to determine the aspect: is it alcohol to relax and enjoy pleasure, or is it “strong alcohol”? Strong alcohol means stress. Light alcohol, champagne, wine mean joy, celebration, being in love.

If you were in the company of a person of the opposite sex drinking tasty wine or champagne, the dream points to a relationship with that same person. And if you liked such a drink, if it was tasty, the dream means being in love (to the point of dizziness), a desire to be with him (with her). Often it is also an intimate relationship, passion.

If in the dream you were drunk and at the same time felt unwell, the dream is about a premonition of losses, betrayal because of deceit. If in the dream there is a meeting with a drunk person, it means worries and anxieties because of other people’s actions toward you.

What to do if you dreamed about alcohol

If you dreamed about alcohol, pay attention to the details. What kind of alcohol was it? Strong or light? Were you drinking it or was someone else? Were you drunk or sober? What were the emotions?

If you were drinking champagne or wine and were happy, expect a joyful event. If you were drinking vodka or cognac and were drunk, expect stress, losses, emotional shock.
