Dreaming of Opium

opium, drugs, morphine, narcotics · very negative

Opium in a dream is a bad omen: illness, money troubles and sly influences.

What happens in the dream

  • Dreaming of opium: strangers will block your chances to get ahead by sly and seductive means
  • Seeing the drug: illness and poverty
  • Seeing someone under the influence of opium and in danger of dying: misfortune for you or someone close

How you felt

  • Numbness: the dream may reflect a stretch of life where you feel you've lost your grip
  • Wariness: it can mirror a fear of being seduced by an easy way out

Ask yourself

  • Is something lulling me away from what I want?
  • Who or what has too strong a hold on me?
