Dreaming of Hypnotism

hypnotism, hypnotism, spell, trance · negative, unless you hold the power

Hypnotism in a dream is about control: being under it is dangerous, wielding it shows strong will.

What happens in the dream

  • You hold others under a spell: you will govern your surroundings with real willpower, the one happy omen
  • You are hypnotized or under someone's power: disastrous results, as enemies will hold you in thrall
  • You feel under strange influences: immediate danger, so be careful
  • You watch hypnotism or sleight-of-hand: worries and confusion at work and at home

How you felt

  • Powerlessness: the dream often reflects a fear of losing control
  • A wish for influence: you may want more sway over events

Ask yourself

  • Who or what has too much hold over me?
  • Am I really making my own decisions?
