Dreaming of Sliding

sliding, skidding, sledding, slipping · mixed

Sliding foretells disappointment and false promises, except on smooth ice.

What happens in the dream

  • You slide on smooth ice: good luck
  • Someone helps you slide and you enjoy it: a pleasant romance is coming
  • You slide: business disappointments and broken vows in love
  • You slide down a green grassy slope: flattering promises will lead you to ruin
  • Rough, wet or broken ice: difficulties
  • You fall on the ice together with your sweetheart: a wedding soon

How you felt

  • Letting go: the dream may reflect either enjoyment or fear of losing control
  • Wariness: it can flag promises that sound too good

Ask yourself

  • Which promise seems too good to be true?
  • Where am I sliding along without braking?
