Spiritual Meaning:
The zodiac wheel is symbolic of our relationship with the universe.  Sometimes the signs of the zodiac are used in dreams to demonstrate time or time passing, and also suggest courses of action we might take.  Each sign also rules (has responsibility for) a particular part of the physical body, and any imbalance is reflected into dreams through the symbolism of the zodiac.

Psychological / Emotional Perspective:
Hidden information often comes to us through dreams. As we become more knowledgeable these symbols tap into arcane wisdom which allows us to live our lives in tune with the universe. The spheres of influence of the planets were first described by Plato and modern astrology stills tend to follow his teachings.

Everyday Material Aspects:
Everyone has a fascination for horoscopes, without necessarily understanding the significance of the zodiac wheel. It is often only when we begin the journey of self-discovery that images and symbols from the zodiac will appear in dreams. Frequently, the animal or creature associated with our own star sign will appear, almost as a reminder of basic principles. The way we deal with that image will give us insight into how we really feel about ourselves.
