Escape, celebration, loss of control
Number Three
Trinity, creativity, expression
Alcohol
Alcohol in dreams represents altered states, social lubrication, celebration, or escape from reality. Drinking socially may reflect your relationship with relaxation and social connection. Being drunk suggests loss of control or lowered inhibitions. For those in recovery, alcohol dreams are extremely common and can represent both fear of relapse and the processing of past behavior.
Number Three
Three represents the creative principle, expression, and the resolution of duality into synthesis. The trinity archetype appears in countless traditions: Father/Son/Spirit, Maiden/Mother/Crone, past/present/future. In dreams, three often represents the beginning, middle, and end of something, or the mind-body-spirit connection. Three objects or events suggest a pattern or a message about creative expression.
