Statistically, the second most prominent dream that my clients seems to have carries the theme of being chased by someone or something.
The full interpretation would also need to look at the dreamers surroundings while he or she is being chased and, of course, who or what is chasing them.
The chasing dream would also come under the umbrella of anxiety dreams, as they represent our need to escape whatever it is we are anxious or worried about. the number one cause of this dream comes down to fear; fear of ones own failures, of responsibilities, or of the emotions we cannot seem to handle (such as jealousy).
Another way to interpret this common type of dream would be to use the word vulnerability. More and more women come to me with this dream in which they are eventually assaulted or attacked by their chaser. Although many of these women are externally very strong, their vulnerability is expressing itself through dream as it needs to be recognised and addressed.
