Computer
Computers represent mental processing, intellectual work, and the logical mind. A malfunctioning computer suggests cognitive overload, confusion, or an inability to process information. A computer virus may represent toxic ideas or corrupted thinking. In modern dreams, computers increasingly represent the boundary between real and virtual life. Being unable to use a computer may reflect feeling outdated or unable to keep up.
Fighting
Fighting in dreams represents conflict — with others, with yourself, or with aspects of your situation. The opponent reveals the nature of the conflict: fighting a stranger may represent internal conflict with your shadow, fighting a known person reflects real-life tension, fighting a monster represents battling overwhelming fears. The ability to fight back indicates your sense of agency in dealing with conflict.
