Detailed dream meaning

The overall feeling of the dream is going to be the biggest indicator of whether or not the dream is a prophetic one, one that indicates ruin in your own life, or if it is a sign of coming back after a devastating loss of some kind.

After dreams like these, you may note that while you are going through a tough time in your life that you can look on the bright side and see why things are happening as they are. These dreams, when prophetic, are signs that you need to not fight against the tide that is present in your life and keep in mind that some changes happen for a reason. When the depiction of ruin in your dream is devastating, terrifying, or unjustified then this is a dream of caution that there are going to be negative changes in your life. Consider how you can help prepare for the storm that is coming. Keep in mind that you are given enough that you can handle and that the dream is meant as a warning and not as a prophetic terror inciting vision.
