Admiring – Admiration is a straightforward dream symbol that usually just means what it looks like. If you admire someone else, this is an indication that they have some quality you would like to emulate or adopt within yourself. If you dream about being admired, it indicates a desire for approval. This may be the approval of someone else, but more likely it is your own approval that you are seeking in this sort of dream. A dream in which you are or want to be admired indicates that you want to see yourself as an admirable person, and that you want others to want to be like you.
