1- There is a condition in sleeping where we becomc alert to the fact that we arc dreaming and that we can wake up. This appears partly as a way of forcing us into taking note of a particular action or circumstance, and partly to enable us to use the therapeutic tool of being able to wake up and make an adjustment to a dream which might have a happier ending.
2- To wake up in a dream can indicate that we have come out of a period of mourning and withdrawal.
3- Spiritually, to wake up signifies becoming aware.
The dream state alerts us to various ideas and concepts we should be looking at, although it may take us a little time to ‘wake up’ to them.
