Dreaming of a Vow

vow, pledge · mostly negative, with one happy exception

Making or hearing vows mostly signals accusations of disloyalty, and breaking a vow bodes ill for everyone.

What happens in the dream

  • You make or hear vows: someone will accuse you of being unfaithful in business or in love
  • You take religious vows: you will come through a hard time with unshaken integrity, the one good omen
  • You break or ignore a vow: serious consequences in your dealings

How you felt

  • A sense of commitment: the dream may reflect a promise that matters to you, or weighs on you
  • Guilt: you may be afraid of letting someone down

Ask yourself

  • Which promise am I finding hard to keep?
  • Am I committing for the right reasons?
