Dreaming of an Acrobat

acrobat, tightrope walker, tumbler · negative

An acrobat in a dream speaks of risk, mockery and a reputation under attack.

What happens in the dream

  • Acrobats in tights: you are seeking to please others
  • You see acrobats: others' foolish fears keep you from risky schemes
  • You perform acrobatics: you will have to answer for a stir, and enemies will mock you
  • You see women acrobats: your name is slandered and your business hindered

How you felt

  • Imbalance: the dream may reflect juggling too many things
  • Exposure: it may express fear of being watched and judged

Ask yourself

  • What tightrope am I walking right now?
  • Am I taking risks to impress others?
