Dreaming of a Beard

beard, moustache, stubble · mixed

A beard speaks of rivalry and vanity, but a long full beard means success.

What happens in the dream

  • You comb and admire your beard: your vanity will grow with success and drive old friends away
  • A long, full beard: success in business and love
  • You see a beard: a disagreeable person will oppose you, and the struggle may cost you money
  • A gray beard: bad luck and quarrels
  • A very thin beard: lawsuits
  • You dream you have a beard when you don't: your dearest wishes will soon come true
  • Someone pulls your beard: you will narrowly avoid losing property
  • Your beard falls out: the loss of a relative or disgrace

How you felt

  • A need to assert yourself: wanting to be taken seriously
  • Self-consciousness: perhaps worry about your image

Ask yourself

  • Do I feel taken seriously?
  • Is my pride pushing certain people away?
