Aliens, the extra terrestrial kind, when helpful, remote, friendly or in authority signify your guides or guardian angles. They show up as aliens in your dream because you are not quite sure that you are the same as them. When you become more comfortable with the fact that you are, dreams of them as aliens will diminish. The only difference between you and them is their state of awareness and the fact that you currently inhabit a body. Aliens, when threatening, signify entities such as malicious spirits or illness. Going to bed in an angry mood can trigger dreams where you are fighting off aliens when you end up on a low level of the astral plane.

To dream of an alligator indicates that you are either too assertive (your bite is too large) or the opposite; you need to drop your timid nature and stand up for yourself. You will know which applies to you. This dream is healing and intends for you to get renewed strength to get a grip on things. Sharpen your teeth and like the alligator do not let go once you have sunk your teeth in. You should only bite off in life what you can chew but the first part is also to be able to take the bite at life. See teeth for more. An alligator in a swamp represents your colon. Here the alligator symbolizes a health warning so look to the other symbols in the dream to indicate what you need to do to prevent it.

An amusement park is healing for depression or a request to enjoy yourself. Parks symbolize your heart so an amusement park is trying to put a sense of fun and amusement back into your heart.
