In General the sexuality of human beings develops at very early age. When the baby starts discovering his own body, he discovers senses and pleasures that never felt before. At this stage of his life, he learns which parts of the body has to be touched if he wishes to feel the pleasure. Sometimes, when parents notice babies touching themselves they are afraid of such actions, therefore the babies are punished in many various ways. Because the child has been traumatized in his childhood, he has more dreams that are related to sexuality than any other ordinary man. These feelings are suppressed, but in dreams they occur more and often.

Psychological Meanings:

One of the instincts human beings have is the sexuality. On the psychological level, the sexuality is dreamed of usually when it is suppressed in reality. There are many different reasons, why the sexuality is suppressed, as for example the childhood, where the dreamer interpreted the sexual act as a sin.
On the positive note, the sexuality is the primal need for intimacy and the way to find the union with another person. Those who have no sexual partners in their lives have more of sexual dreams, than those who have the sexual partners in their lives, because of the mental state of their mind is occupied with the thoughts rather than feelings. The energy that is hidden deep in their mind is expressed through the dreams, therefore something must be done, as it is not healthy to suppress your needs.
The negative aspects of your dream might indicate the ego of the dreamer. There is a possibility that the dreamer is overconfident by his ability to perform not only sexually, but in many various ways either. The overconfidence brings negativity in the life, when others starts to reject him. The dreamer must adapt himself in community being confident, but not too impudent. The other dream explanations can be interpreted depending on the tendency of the dream:

The dream could also represent the actual fear of catching the disease which is transmitted by sexual act. The fear is coming from the distrust of your partner or because of huge variety of sexual partners you have.

Question:

What do I have to understand that I can live with my strength?

General Meanings:

An eagle indicates inspiration and strength. It also can stand as a support for the need to rise after the dissolution of old ideas and attitudes. As a bird of prey, the Eagle is able to take advantage of all opportunities which are offered to him. To dream an eagle, means that you can do the same or want to.

Exaggerated power or too proud Eagle generally stands for courage, boldness, pride, dignity, vision, desire for freedom and striving for higher things ( as a symbol of power – at the back of coins). When eagle appears you always must ask yourself – if you do not overdo and exaggerate in reaching higher striving, or overestimate your own strength, or you encounter with pride in front of the others, this is the real life situation.

Psychological Meanings:

Success and big ideas From a psychological point, the eagle indicates that the dreamer has the ability to use his mind to be successful. He takes his life into his own hands. Perhaps the eagle is also a reference to the need to be factual and take another point of view. Eagle of the Lord of the skies can be interpreted positively as earthly ties, it is the exhilaration of great ideas, but often also for the consuming passion of the mind.

Realization and happiness Who sees the eagle flying high up in the sky -there is a hope that he can realize and move high-flying plans into action. Who catches the eagle will be able to enjoy success on their own.

Who gambles high, may fall deeply An eagle, which falls down and dives for its prey, points to the speed of thought and the courage of the dreamer, could indeed prove recklessness in the waking life.

Mental freedom and sexuality Freud says that the eagle on the basis of the mythology is an overpowering sexual symbol, because the predator can not control his urges and wants to have his victim. Freud justified this by saying that the eagle is a large bird and the word bird in the vernacular is another word for penis. In some cases the eagle can absolutely stand for the sexuality, more arises from the dream connection: if the eagle can fly badly or not at all, this points to the austerity of the mental freedom or on the fact that the dreamer neglects his spiritual interests.
