Dreaming of a Friend
friend, buddy, pal · mixed
A happy friend in a dream brings good news; a troubled or transformed one warns of worry and distance.
What happens in the dream
- Your friends are well and happy: good news of them, or a reunion soon
- You see a friend dead: oddly, joyful news, perhaps an early marriage
- A friend stands like a statue on a hill: you will move beyond your present path while keeping your values
- You shake hands with someone who wronged you, and they leave looking sad: a falling-out with a close friend
- A friend looks troubled and haggard: they are facing illness or distress
- Your friends take the form of animals: enemies will come between you and those closest to you
- A friend who usually dresses quietly appears in bright red: unpleasant events that will cause you anxiety
- A friend's face is covered with a white cloth: someone will harm you while pretending to be friendly
How you felt
- Attachment: the dream often reflects the place a friend holds in your life
- Worry: it may show a fear of losing a bond or being let down
Ask yourself
- Which friendship have I neglected lately?
- Is there a friend I have doubts about?
