As with most symbolic reference in dreams, there would be subconscious relevance and associations, resulting in interpretation that would normally have a bearing on emotional requirements, as well as potential anxieties.

Relationship expert and "The Love Goddess" Tamara Trusseau, author of The Key To Your Dreams, describes some of the more common erotic dreams, and explains what they may mean for you.

Kissing an ex - A desire for stability and more fulfilling romantic possibilities.

Sexual interaction with an ex - Subconsciously looking back at past encounters; a return to certain aspects of past situations.

Sex toys - Using sex toys within a dream refers to an urge for a different method of emotional expression and individuality

Dreaming about an ex - Depending on the events involved, dreams concerning an ex may highlight the need to examine and understand past situations; alternatively, there can be a reference to a new situation, that from a certain perspective resembles the past.

Temptation - A subconscious awareness of emotional situations that may prove deceptive.

Ultimately dreams represent communication triggered by the subconscious. They are an honest portrayal of hidden reality designed with great deliberation in an effort to instigate awareness and realisation.
