Dreaming of a Drum
drum, drumbeat, percussion · mixed
Seeing a drum points to prosperity and a peaceable nature; hearing a drumroll, to a sudden call.
What happens in the dream
- You see a drum: a kindly nature that shuns quarrels, and prosperity in any trade
- You hear a muffled drum: an absent friend is in distress and calls on you for help
- You hear a drumroll: you'll be called away from home or work unexpectedly
- Soldiers march to the drum: an unexpected message will bring trouble or excitement
How you felt
- Alertness: the dream often reflects a sense that it's time to get moving
- An inner call: perhaps a feeling that someone or something needs you
Ask yourself
- What call am I ignoring?
- Who around me might need me?
