Dreaming of a Pistol

pistol, handgun · very negative

A pistol is generally a bad omen: schemes, envy and revenge.

What happens in the dream

  • You see a pistol: bad fortune in general
  • You own one: you'll develop a scheming streak
  • You fire it: you'll envy an innocent person and go far to avenge an imagined wrong
  • You hear one fired: you'll learn of a scheme to ruin your interests
  • You arm yourself with a pistol: a loss of standing, perhaps hardship

How you felt

  • Anger or fear: the dream may reflect a need to defend yourself
  • A sense of injustice: a grudge looking for a target

Ask yourself

  • Whom am I holding a grudge against?
  • What do I feel I need to defend myself from?
