Clock
Clocks represent your relationship with time — the most universal human concern. A clock ticking loudly suggests time pressure and deadlines. A stopped clock may indicate feeling that time has stopped or that you're wasting time. Clock hands spinning rapidly reflect the feeling that time is moving too fast. The specific time shown on a clock may carry personal significance.
Storm
Storms in dreams represent emotional turbulence, internal or external conflict, and the powerful forces of nature within us. The type of storm matters: thunderstorms suggest anger or confrontation, tornadoes represent chaos and sudden change, hurricanes indicate prolonged emotional disturbance, and blizzards can represent emotional coldness or isolation.
