Dreaming of a Camera

camera, photograph, smartphone, snapshot · mostly negative

A camera signals changes that will land you in surroundings you don't deserve, and disappointment from a friend.

What happens in the dream

  • A camera: changes will put you in an environment you don't deserve
  • Taking pictures: an unpleasant near future, and a sharp disappointment from a friend

How you felt

  • A wish to hold on to the moment: the dream often mirrors a fear of change
  • Feeling watched: it may reflect concern about the image you project

Ask yourself

  • What would I like to freeze before it changes?
  • Am I too concerned with how I come across?
