Dreaming of Praise
praise, applause, compliment, flattery · mostly negative
Being praised in a dream points rather to gossip, and warns against flatterers.
What happens in the dream
- Your partner praises your looks or kindness: be wary, they may mostly be flattering their own vanity
- Someone praises or flatters you: a sign of scandal
How you felt
- Pleasure mixed with doubt: the dream may reflect difficulty believing compliments
- A need for recognition: perhaps a wish to be seen for who you really are
Ask yourself
- Do I trust the compliments I receive?
- Whose recognition do I really need?
