The presence of a mother in a dream indicates the presence of Oedipal or maternal complexes in the dreamer.
If a young man or a man dreams that his mother is in love or is alone with his father or any other man, he has a clearly expressed Oedipus complex. He is jealous of his mother for all men and dreams that she belonged only to him and hates his father.
If a young man or a man dreams that he is having sex with his mother, he has become a victim of the mother complex, that is, he cannot choose a partner, because he compares them all to his mother, but cannot find anything similar.
If you see your mother in a dream - you are tormented by a guilt complex, because you do not pay or did not pay enough attention to her.
If a girl or woman dreams of having a mother, it is possible to have a sexual rival.
