General interpretation
To dream of a telephone symbolizes one's ability to communicate with other people and obtain information.
However, this ability to communicate can relate to other people as well as parts of one's own personality that come into contact with each other. If the dreamer receives a call on the cell phone or landline, this is interpreted as an indication that he is receiving information about which he knew nothing in his consciousness.
For the further interpretation, it is important to know who the dreamer called and what this person means to him. If there are difficulties in the dream in getting one connection or another on the line, this indicates despair, which the dreamer feels in waking life.
If the dreamer is called, but does not answer the phone, they will have contact difficulties or inhibitions in waking life.
Psychological interpretation
The psychological interpretation sees the telephone in the dream as a means of communication with the dreamer's environment. If it is used frequently, then it has many contacts or it would like more contacts.
Contact difficulties are symbolized by a broken telephone or faulty lines. If the disorder is corrected in the dream, the dreamer is already on the way to getting out of loneliness.
A phone call in a dream can also be a warning from the subconscious about bad influences. However, a call can also be an acceptance or rejection related to professional or private life.
If the dream chooses a number, an interpretation can be made based on the numbers. Often the subconscious knows that it would be important to make contact with a certain person and gives hints about this in the dream.
If the dreamer is looking for a phone number, it usually indicates confused thoughts, which also relate to planning for the future. The content of the conversation can also be important for interpretation. Maybe there is something that should finally be said?
spiritual interpretation
If the dream symbol telephone is interpreted spiritually, the telephone call will be interpreted as a conversation with the guardian angel or your own spirit. Because, as with a telephone conversation, you cannot see these interlocutors yourself.
