Dreaming of Eggs
eggs · mostly positive
Eggs promise wealth, fertility and success, unless they're rotten or break at the wrong moment.
What happens in the dream
- You find a nest of eggs: substantial wealth, a happy marriage and many children
- You buy or sell eggs: whatever you're doing will succeed, in love or at work
- A crate of eggs: profitable speculation
- Birds' eggs: a legacy from a distant relative, or an unexpected gain
- An egg hanging by a string at the head of your bed: you'll find hidden treasure
- You eat eggs: depending on the reading, trouble at home, or else a birth and thriving affairs
- Fresh eggs broken open: fortune showers you with gifts; but eggs broken by accident mean losses and quarrels
- Rotten eggs: loss of property and disgrace
How you felt
- Hope: the dream often reflects a project or wish that's still incubating
- Fragility: perhaps a fear of breaking something that hasn't hatched yet
Ask yourself
- What is hatching in my life?
- Am I afraid of breaking a project that's still fragile?
