General Meanings:

The snake is the ancient symbol of dreams and should always be thoroughly analyzed by individual associations. The result of deep analysis will give you an important insight into your personality. For the start there is a lot of examples what a meaning of a snake dream can be.

Hidden worries or unmasked dangers – Dreaming of a snake indicates secret fears and hidden worries. These are threats for you. In this case, a snake in the dream might be an alert to wake up and see what is going around you, that is not already discovered. Alternative interpretation of the snake dream is the contradiction. Its meaning foretells the discovery of a threat. So, in this case a snake is an indication that a raunchy person or such situation is revealed in some way. Maybe it is a situation where you can not trust a person, or a person whom you know and can not keep it under control.

Psychological Meanings:

Importance – Snake is most important archetypical character of dreams. According psychiatrist C.G. Jung a snake demonstrates something significant in the subconscious. It can be dangerous or can bring salvation. Since the Expulsion from the Garden of Eden, the snake is most commonly met with fear.

Good or bad – Because of snake mysterious nature, it is seen as the carrier of deepest energetic forces of the soul, but snake also is seen often in a conflict, so snake dream has both meanings – positive and negative. Therefore snake can show splitting subconscious into one of two directions – good or bad. Two-headed snake – Especially the snake with two heads, one on each end, in the dream represents that the dreamer is being forcefully pulled in two different directions. Maybe there is too big load for you, too many things to carry. And that makes you not going anywhere. In this case your actions are having the opposite of the desired effect. Also two headed snake can be seen as a symbol of love affair or love triangle. The bicephalic snake (two heads on one side) in the dream represents parenthood or indicates your strong feeling of wanting to have children. Alternative interpretation of the two-headed snake indicates any kind of relationship and teamwork. Maybe you need to be more cooperative to achieve outstanding results.

Secret – A snake, that emerges from the darkness, signifies the fear of losing something special. As example, it represents closely guarded secret, that could be snatched from the dreamer.

Temptress – A snake in men’s dreams can appear as the symbol of a seductress and then often embodies a cold, calculating woman. Thus, it also has a warning function.

Sexuality and fear of it – Psychoanalytic Sigmund Freud saw in snake dreams a typical phallic symbolism. The snake may have this meaning very well, especially in dreams of young people. It symbolizes the instinctive impulse of human nature. Since snakes relate with sexuality, then maybe you have unresolved problems in this area or the fear of sexual activity. Snake in the bed – Especially, a snake on your bed in the dream represents that you are feeling intense sexual power from someone and that makes you uncomfortable or even sexually threatened. Maybe you are inexperienced, too much nervous or it is just too soon for you.

The golden snake symbolizes the abundance of wealth and the power of the Spirits. The white snake implies the depth of the soul. Dark, black snakes can alert the dreamer to change his life. Green snakes represent the body energy, which could still be used.

Kissing, touching or any other friendly contact with snakes in the dream, represents the possibility of betrayal and deception.

Healing, freeing and protecting – Together with other symbols this animal can be interpreted very positively and often represents some kind of healing: not for nothing a snake winds around the wand (rod) of Asclepius (Latin Aesculapius), the Greek God of medicine, healing, rejuvenation and physicians. At all times snakes’ deadly poisons was used in small quantities for the cure of certain diseases. Therefore, it is in the dream also as a symbol of change and healing. If snake sheds it’s skin in the dream, since old times such symbol is interpreted as the recuperation, recovery from an illness or a disease, or the liberation of condition, situation. The skin of a snake in the dream is as the safeguard for the dreamer and thus symbolizes protection from diseases or illnesses.

Detailed interpretation of wolf in dreams by Denise Lynn

Wolves have very strong sense of family (pack). They are together all the time – they hunt together, they raise their young puppies together and they have a very strong sense of hierarchy.
In North America isn’t known any single case of death of a human in an attack by a wild wolf (although in Europe and Asia it sometimes happened). As a rule, the wolves are not aggressive at all and clashes between members of the pack are extremely rare.
You should ask yourself: do I feel support of my family? Maybe I need to balance my personal needs and interests of my family? In this case, wolf is a clear sign that shows your relationship with family and your feelings for family. This sign maybe tells you that you need more love and emotional support. And sometimes for some people the wolf in the dream can be a symbol of fear.
