I'm pretty good at figuring out what dreams mean, however NOT nightmares. Most nights I get nightmares but occasionally I can depict their meanings. I'm going to dedicate this blog to helping people with their dreams by sharing some of my own.
Intro:
Last night I had a dream I was in a house. This house had a lot of people in it whom I believe I knew through modeling, sports, etc. I can't quite remember but something tells me it was an overnight trip in this house. There was a huge plastic box filled with water and I remember eagerly trying to get some. THEN... my dream shifts completely
Snakes:
I was looking for a small black snake.
*Note: When remembering your dream try to remember details such as colors, time of day, and numbers.
Snakes in dreams can mean a good amount of different things but because in this dream the snake was BLACK it can be considered an evil. Snakes are ground creatures and can be a peril for the underworld. Generally, any type of snake is a sign of negative power or trouble. If your snake was a different color say green or brown it could be depicted as a sexual dream. The black snake in my dream was SMALL- no bigger than the size of my hand. This could mean that I have been facing some sort of lie, an enemy, or a hidden fear.
Action: I remember holding this snake trying to kill it with my fingernails. My memory isn't the best but I'm positive I did end up killing it because I remember seeing a second snake just like it later on. Killing a snake means I am trying to overcome an obstacle in my life. Looking at my current life situations I know it means my life is taking a turn for the better.
Meaning: In MY dream the snakes represents my past. Because I am killing it means that I am moving on from my past and the hardship it has brought to my current life and I am now moving on.
Number: Seeing ONE snake in a dream might symbolize a person you feel threatened by in your life. However, since I saw TWO (possibly three) snakes in my dream it can be referred to as a problem within myself.
Complex: This is where my dream gets a little complex. The second snake I remember grabbing it and instead of killing it with my nails I held its head as it was about to bite me and moved it in a way so that it accidently bit its own body and died.
I did a little research because this was VERY strange to me and even I could not think of what it could mean. There is an ancient symbol called the Ouroboros where a snake is shown eating its own tail. It represents rebirth or a cycle. Since the snake in my dream was in fact biting itself I believe that my overcoming of the past is just a phase and will be shortlived.
Then again, I could be very wrong with the last part. With dreams the smallest detail you remember can change the meaning of the dream entirely. Normally I remember mine but I was abrubtly woken up by my dog this morning and could only grasp few bits of the dream back into my memory.
