Need Meaning for My Dream

In my childhood days, when i used to get feverish I come across a dream like i feel my hands and body become bigger and feel like i have gained weight only in Hand and legs.

After long days, Within this year, almost twice in a week, I get such a dream and i even feel my hands become big even when i am awake or speaking with someone. I started meditation whenever i feel like i have no work or i idle time. So it has come down, But still i get it. It nothing like i avoid it, but i need to know, if ant psychological reason behind this. Thanks..

Seems to me like you have too much time to think about things. It also seems to me that you think there is something wrong with you and you want to confirm it.

Your dream meant nothing then, and it means nothing now. If your thing is to want to spend your time thinking about it, then I suppose it could be a good pass time for you like fishing or gardening is for others.

This is a very typical question for trading forums Comes up all the time...

It is a neurological condition. ie it is physiological, not 'psychological' per se.
I don't think it has an official medical diagnostic label like the visually oriented conditions (macroscopia, etc.) but its occasional occurence is not that rare
It's correlated with fevers (current and in history), certain types of migraines, epilepsy, schizophrenia, brain damage / trauma, drug (both prescription and 'recreational') interactions, and in rare cases, brain tumors.

You're having some capacity to 'meditate it away', narrows it down some for me to migraine (whether you have other 'real' migraine symptoms or not) or low level brain damage from fever - but doesn't exclude the others!!! ie don't ignore (painful or subtle) symptom clusters... hth
