Dreaming of Glass
glass, pane · mostly negative, with a few happy exceptions
Glass is mostly about fragility: dashed hopes, fickle love and broken plans, with a few bright exceptions.
What happens in the dream
- Looking through glass: bitter disappointments cloud your hopes; through a clear window, work but in a junior role; through clouded glass, a difficult position
- Seeing yourself in a mirror: neglect in your relationship and fruitless investments
- Seeing your partner in a mirror: worries about your happiness and broken promises
- Breaking a mirror, glass dishes or a window: plans that end badly, and a grave omen in the old books
- Being handed a glass of water: a wedding soon and children who do well; if the glass breaks, heartbreak or bereavement
- Another face beside yours in the mirror: a double life, and friends deceived
- Breaking glass: your sweetheart may leave you, and unexpected trouble
- Being given cut glass: you'll be admired for your talent; giving it, though, means failure
- Breaking or spilling a glass during a pregnancy: a worrying time for mother or child
How you felt
- A sense of fragility: the dream often reflects fear that something precious will break
- Distrust: you may doubt someone's openness, or your own
Ask yourself
- What feels fragile to me right now?
- Do I show people who I really am?
