You can breathe a sigh of relief if you keep having these nightmares. The feeling of waking up in the middle of the night in a panic, covered in snakes or feeling close to death can be frightening. However, therapists and analysts say that dreams mean that certain common nightmares have a positive value behind them.
According to John Sovec, LMFT, a therapist and trainer, these scary dreams are often remembered because they shock our system, waking us up. However, this does not mean that these nightmares will come true.

dream that you are dying
While this nightmare can be frightening, it is not a literal sign of death. We often dream of death during major life transitions as a way to process changes and release unresolved feelings, according to Sovec and Loewenberg.
dream that you are pregnant
Even if you are not planning to have a baby, dreaming that you are pregnant can have a positive meaning. This dream could indicate the beginning of something new in your life, such as the development of a new idea, project, mindset or even a relationship, explains Loewenberg.
dream about snakes
While snakes may seem like a negative symbol, they can represent healing and transformation. In fact, the symbol of two snakes wrapped around a staff is widely associated with medical professions and healthcare institutions. Therefore, dreaming of snakes can indicate an ongoing healing process.
It is important to remember that dream interpretation is subjective and personal. Each individual may have their own associations and meanings for dreams. If you are concerned about a specific dream, it is recommended that you seek the advice of a therapist who specializes in dream analysis.
Overall, these scary dreams can be seen as opportunities for reflection and personal growth.
