Dreaming of Demons

demons, evil spirit · very negative

Seeing the devil or another infernal creature was held to be one of the worst dreams of all.

What happens in the dream

  • The devil or an infernal spirit, if you're healthy: melancholy, anger and violent illness
  • The same vision, if you're ill: an omen of death

How you felt

  • Fear: the dream often reflects an anxiety or anger that feels monstrous
  • Inner conflict: a part of yourself you reject

Ask yourself

  • What am I truly afraid of right now?
  • Is there anger I don't dare look at?
