dreams

Snakes are what I dreamt of for two consecutive nights. The first time it wasn’t scary, what I saw was a normal snake. Not able to recall anything after a long time yet I am sure that the snake wasn’t harmful. Then, yesterday again, I dreamt of snake. Not one but two. Both of them are so different. One was the calm inactive looking snake while the other was fierce, wanted to attack me at any moment. Of course I was scared by the fierce looking one. I don’t really have ophidiophobia but having reptile to attack you, for sure you’ll be afraid. Driven by curiosity, I googled to search for the meaning of snakes dream.

From the net, it says “Well, generally snakes are predominantly a symbol of fear and also a sexual symbol. They say every woman dreams of snakes at least once in her life and the interpretation is often fear of a rival or fear of the male gender. The serpent stands for physical drives and if something is not quite right in that area of life, the snake dreams can come. Now often by the time the dreams come, it is also signifying healing of this area or the desire to heal and balance this area of life.”

Opinion #1:

Usually when you dream of Snakes, it has to do with some form of the Kundalini (sexual grounding power) . You need to look at what the snake was doing and if you were frightened of it, than likely you would be subconsciously dealing with something of the sexual nature that makes you uncomfortable. Or if you were not afraid of it, maybe a part of you is breaking free and developing new strength.

Opinion #2:

Snakes speak to transformation, death and rebirth, the taking on of a new skin, new roles, responsibilities and even attitudes... and the cobra would speak to the fact that you may be afraid of the changes you feel coming.

Opinion #3:

Another meaning of snake is letting the old go and accepting the new. Because snakes shed their skin. You could be afraid of something new coming to be or you may be stepping into something new with ease. It does feel however that with the Cobra and it being so big to protect itself with the way it is built that you are trying to protect yourself from things that are happening around you. It feels like you want to accept some new things but are afraid of being hurt, and thus you can sometimes attack and get your back up instead of just accepting.

But in my case, the advice that suits me is “to dream of a snake is to dream of yourself. If the snake turns and bites you it is supposed to be good, a self revelation”.

Should I get my dream interpreted accurately? Guess not. Hope no bad things come up. Keep my fingers crossed.
