E – Seeing the letter “E” in dreams
Seeing the letter “E” in your dream can imply that it’s time for you to take it easy and that it’s time to sit back and relax.
The “E” can also stand for ecstasy. If you think this is the case, see Drug* for further dream symbolism.
Eagle
The eagle can stand for the traits of nobility, bravery, and power. This bird could reflect the feelings you have for yourself or someone else you saw in the dream. If you do not feel this way about yourself, this could be a sign that you should feel this way to boost your self-esteem.
To dream that you see a dead eagle or kill an eagle can suggest that you will crush all of the obstacles in your path, even if you do not do so in the most honorable ways. This will help you rise to power or acceptance in the short-term, but if you keep it up, then your ego will be your downfall.
To see the meaning of other situations involving eagles, see Bird* for further dream symbolism.
Ear
The most obvious meaning of focusing on ears in a dream is that you need to stop listening to the people and things around you more often. You may be ignoring important words that could be helping you out in your waking life. Listen out for opportunities that may come your way.

Ear Plugs
To dream of wearing earplugs can imply that you are not letting yourself listen to something or someone. This can suggest that you are not ready to listen to new ideas because you fear that it will conflict with your own ideas and that you won’t like what you hear.

Earwax
To dream that you have a lot of earwax or, at least, enough for it to be noticeable in your dream can imply that something is going on in your waking life that you don’t want to listen to.

Earwig
To find this disgusting bug in your ear is a bad sign. This dream can predict that you will face bad or otherwise disappointing news in the near future.
Earth (Ground)
To see the earth’s ground can suggest that you have potential waiting inside of you that needs to be nourished by some outside force before it can come to any use of you. Do not sit around and wait for this, but go out and try to find something that will spark your interests.

To see that the ground is barren and dry can suggest that you feel you have no potential, a sign that your self-confidence is low.

Earthquake
If you are caught in the middle of an earthquake in your dream, then this can imply that you feel like you are on unstable ground in your waking life.

See Disaster* for further dream symbolism.

The eastern direction has to do with the meaning and mysteries that are in life. This dream could imply that you need to find yourself spiritually.

Eat
In a dream, eating can mean many things, but what you are eating and how you feel when you are eating can do a lot more to affect the dream symbolism than the actual act of eating itself. However, generally, eating can imply that you need to take something in to keep moving. This could suggest that you need to learn new tasks or talk to more people to fuel your mind. Ironically, you need to take in other things and ideas if you are to be independent.
To dream that you are eating alone can suggest that you need to talk to other people to grow or end up lonely and depressed. To dream that you are eating with others predicts joyful times to come with your friends and family members.
Avoiding Eating
If you are actively avoiding eating in your dream, then this can imply that you are turning yourself away from society and ignoring the pressures that come with it.

Only by learning can a person grow.

Food Taken Away
To dream that someone takes your food away is not a good sign. This dream can predict that a small annoyance will ruin your day shortly. This annoyance will likely be caused by a careless person’s accident or because of minor bad news on top of an already bad day.
Looking up the type of food you were eating, or the general term Food* can also provide you with additional dream symbolism.
Eavesdropping
Dreaming that you are eavesdropping is a bad sign. This dream can be seen as a prediction that you will hear bad news shortly since you are likely to be listening in on something that you shouldn’t be.
This dream could alternatively imply that someone is keeping a secret from you. It is best not to pry for information, as the secret they are keeping from you would likely upset you if you found out about it.
Ebony
To dream of ebony wood or anything made of it can predict that you will find distress in your near future. This will likely be caused by a fight with a friend or family member.
See black under Colors* for further dream symbolism.
Echo
Hearing an echo in a dream is a bad sign. This dream can be a prediction that something bad will happen to you. To make a bad occurrence like an echo, the problem will become nearly twice as bad as your friends, and family members are not likely to help you with your problem.
Eclipse
To see an eclipse of the sun is a bad sign. This dream can be seen as a prediction of an amount of time filled with failure in business or a setback in your personal life.
To see an eclipse of the moon is also bad. This can predict that you or someone close to you will have ill health shortly.
See Moon or Sun* or both for further dream symbolism.
Ecstasy
To dream of feeling ecstasy is a good sign. This is a prediction that you will have a great time with your friends or family members shortly.
If you are dreaming of the drug ecstasy, see Drug* for the proper dream symbolism.
Edge
To dream that you are coming close to the edge of something can imply that you have reached a boundary in your waking life. This could be an implied boundary, a physical boundary, or a rule you have made up for yourself. Depending on the dream’s mood, this term could imply that now is either a great time or a horrible time to cross this boundary. Use your intuition to make this decision.
Editor
To dream of seeing or being an editor can suggest that you are holding back some part of your personality in your waking life; you are censoring yourself, so to say. You may be bottling up your feelings so that it does not offend others. While keeping things to yourself is okay sometimes, try not to make a habit because when people hold in their emotions for too long, they tend to explode.
Looking up what you or the editor are editings can also provide you with additional dream symbolism.
Education
To dream that you want an education can imply that you really want to learn more in your waking life, even if you do not want to go back to school to do your learning. This could imply that you need to learn new things to advance yourself in your career or social life or that you want to learn more because you like obtaining knowledge.
Looking up places of learning like College and School* can also provide you with additional dream symbolism.
Eel
To see an eel, if you can hold onto it, is a good sign. If this is the case, then this dream can suggest that you will be able to grab onto a better future. Your social life and business life are bound to feel lucky shortly.
To lose your grip on an eel can imply that you will lose your grip on your goals. If you do not hold tight and work hard, then success will escape from your grasp.
To dream of seeing a dead eel can suggest that you are willing to do whatever it takes to advance, even if it means making your peers look bad.
See Animal* for further dream symbolism.
Eerie
To dream that something feels eerie in your dream is a bad sign. This is likely caused by something in your dream that is creepy and doesn’t make sense. This dream term can imply that something in your waking life has you both confused and anxious (or scared).
If you face the eerie thing, this could be a sign that now is a good time to face your fears. However, if the eeriness overwhelms you, then this could imply that you should take small steps to change. Something that might seem bad now might not be so bad once you learn more about it.
