Destination
A destination, in a dream, can represent your hopes and dreams. This can be a visual for your goals, showing you which direction you should accomplish them. The destination in your dream may also be a picture of something you want to obtain in your waking life, or the place could be somewhere you actually want to go.
Destruction
To dream about the destruction of something is a bad sign. This dream can suggest that there is some conflict going on in your waking life that you don’t know how to deal with on your own. You may be acting in a way that brings conflict to you instead of helping to clear it away. Know that it is okay to ask for help when you need it.
Detective

Detention
Dreaming that you are stuck in detention is a sign that you need to look at how your actions affect your daily life. This could show that your actions are negatively affecting you. It is best to determine which behaviors hurt you and replace them with actions that can benefit you and the people around you.
Devil
Seeing the Devil in your dream can mean several different things, all of which are bad, but not all of which are terrible predictions of what is to come. At its most basic meaning, seeing the Devil in your dream can represent fear. Anxiety, stress, anger, hate, and social pressure can negatively affect a person’s mind and dreams. The Devil is a recognizable representation of bad things globally, making it understandable that a person would see this figure if they were having a hard time in their waking life.
The Devil can be a representation of evil thoughts that a person might have. Most people want to fight someone or yell every once in a while, but this rarely solves the problem at hand. It is best to talk out your negative thoughts with a friend or professional (depending on how bad your thoughts are) before acting on them.
The Devil can also represent indecision, which can be caused by several different things and come in many forms. Many people feel like they are not in control of your waking life. You may feel like everyone else is making all of your important decisions for you. You may feel like you want to express yourself and your desires, but you do not know a healthy way to do it. Finding a good way to express your thoughts and feelings can make a big difference when it comes to getting power over your own life.
This dream may also suggest that you are dabbling in one too many sins; if you see yourself as a religious person, this may bother you more than someone who is not. Common “sins” that can cause this are greed, envy, and pride. Making yourself a more modest person can clear you of feelings of guilt, likely removing the Devil from your dream.
This dream may be a sign that you are starting to fall ill. This does not mean that you will die because of it.
