Every now and then I have a dream that causes me to jump on google and look up the possible meaning behind it. Last night stood out to me because the dream involved snakes... something that otherwise has never made an appearance before. Whether it's one of the following reasons, or my recent 'Kill Bill' movie marathon over the weekend I can't say..
BUT
Dreaming about snakes is usually interpreted as being related to challenging issues that you may be facing in your daily life. It is a phallic symbol and could be related to a male figure, male energy or sexuality. (Freud)
A few other meanings/ interpretations:
- A snake is a symbol of the unconscious
- Snakes or serpents indicate you’re in the process of healing and resolving issues
- The snake is a symbol for an untamed part of yourself or an untapped resource
- Snakes could represent your intuition or spiritual aspects of yourself; your instinctual drive, what moves you from the depths of your soul
- Snakes or serpents tend to show up in dreams in times of transition and transformation
- From the classic Freudian perspective, a snake or serpent is a phallic symbol
