Detailed dream meaning

Depending on the tone and nature of the dream, what the music box represents can vary. If you dreamed of a music box that is similar to one that you had as a child, you may be feeling a bit nostalgic about your childhood. In this case, you might even have been reflecting on some of the hopes and dreams you once valued so much as a child that you have lost sight of as an adult. Sometimes, our psyche speaks to us in dreams to show us something that we have forgotten over years. When this happens it usually indicates that you are on a path to realize a forgotten goal or to remind us that there are still things we need to accomplish.

Dreaming of giving a music box to a friend may represent the way feel towards that person. The act of giving a sentimental item in a dream often denotes that you deeply love or care for this person and want them to have something that you love in their life. If you are giving the music box to a young child, you are giving them a piece of the childhood happy childhood you once had.

If in the dream you broke or lost the music box, you may be feeling like your inner child’s spirit is damaged. You may also feel that you long for the safety and security of being cared for by your parents. This feeling can be the result of the struggles of responsibilities or the feeling that you have not yet accomplished as an adult some of the things you had hoped for as a child. As an adult, it is common to have feeling of regret or remorse over ‘letting your inner-child down”, and you may feel as if you have in some way failed your younger self. When you receive this type of message, it means that you may need to find a way to overcome some guilt and move in the direction of your future, without the past weighing you down.
