Dreaming of Epaulets

epaulets, insignia, shoulder strap · mixed

Epaulets in a dream are about rank and prestige: a passing disgrace before honors, or an unwise attraction.

What happens in the dream

  • You wear epaulets as a soldier: disfavor for a while, then honors
  • You're introduced to someone wearing epaulets: an unwise attachment that could lead to scandal

How you felt

  • Admiration: the dream may reflect an attraction to prestige or authority
  • Impatience: you may be waiting for recognition that is slow to come

Ask yourself

  • Am I drawn to the rank or to the person?
  • Am I willing to get through a thankless stretch before being recognized?
