If you dream of being terrified in a dark forest, your liver may be low on energy; if you are caught in a fire, your heart energy may be deficient; and if you often feel hungry in your dreams, you may need to strengthen your spleen energy (spleen refers to digestive system).
Your movements in your dreams may not only reflect your activities during the day, but may also speak for your organs. If there's too much energy, especially yang energy, in the liver, you may find yourself in a state of agitation in your dreams.
If there's too much energy in the lungs, you may dream about weeping or flying. If heart energy is too strong, you may laugh in your dreams, but in a frightening way; if there's too much spleen energy, you may dream about singing, or find your body is too heavy to move.
If there's too much energy in the kidneys (reproductive/urinary tract system), people are usually terrified in their dreams.
