Dreaming of Weeping
weeping, sobbing · mixed
Weeping in a dream signals family trouble, but seeing others weep means reunion, and one tradition reads it as joy.
What happens in the dream
- Others weep: a happy reunion after a period of estrangement
- You weep: bad news and family upset; by another reading, the opposite, joy and good cheer
- If you are in a relationship: quarrels that will only be settled through give and take
- If you are in trade: temporary discouragement and setbacks
How you felt
- Sorrow: the dream may let out grief you've been holding in
- Relief: weeping in a dream sometimes reflects tension letting go
Ask yourself
- What sorrow haven't I voiced yet?
- Who would I like to make up with?
