What It Means to Dream About Money
Money dreams are said to reflect not so much money luck itself, but the state of your love, confidence, and energy. We explain them by scene — finding money, losing money, and more.
The Basic Meaning
Money dreams are easily mistaken for dreams about financial luck, but in dream interpretation, money is often read as a symbol of energy, confidence, and love. A dream of gaining money represents expectations of abundance, or a wish to be recognized; a dream of money decreasing can represent a depletion of vigor or breathing room. Rather than a prediction of your real finances, it is a dream that reflects the state of your heart's richness. The state of your wallet, bills, and coins also represents your current sense of how much margin you have.
What It Means in Different Situations
Finding Money
This is sometimes read as a first sign of an unexpected happy event, or a new connection. It can also indicate fruition in matters of love.
Losing Money
Contrary to the worry it causes, in dream interpretation this is sometimes read as a turning-point sign: worries and burdens can be let go. It is a season when the sorting of your feelings progresses.
Losing Your Wallet
A state where your confidence or sense of security is a little shaken. It is a dream that becomes a chance to review what is important to you.
Receiving Money
This points to a season when appreciation and affection from those around you are rising. Receiving that gratitude with an open heart is important.
Giving Money
This expresses the emotional room to share abundance, and a wish to be of use to people. In time, it circles back and leads to your own fruition.
Counting Money
This expresses a wish to confirm your own situation. In real life, too, reviewing your income, spending, and plans will lead to peace of mind.
Having a Large Sum of Money
This represents rising confidence and ambition. You may be getting mentally ready to take on a big goal.
Small Coins
A symbol of small daily fruits, and of modest happiness. It represents the importance of accumulating steadily, bit by bit.
Not Having Enough Money
This can represent a lack of margin, or an unfulfilled wish to be recognized. It is a season to restore your energy with rest.
Being in Debt
This represents a burden on your heart, or an awareness of obligations toward someone. Rather than carrying it alone, it is important to organize it and think it through.
Your State of Mind When You Have This Dream
You are likely to have this dream when a wish to be recognized, or to become more abundant, is rising — or conversely, when you feel a lack of margin. Your feelings about your own value are reflected in it. It also appears in seasons when you have many occasions to think about work evaluations or income.
How It Differs from Similar Dreams
A lottery dream is about expectation of good luck itself, while a money dream reflects the daily state of your energy and confidence. A toilet dream is a symbol tied to money luck and cleansing, but a money dream represents the heart's richness more directly.
The Flow of Your Luck, and Some Advice
Your financial luck is in a season tied to your emotional room to breathe. Holding back on impulse purchases, and spending in ways that put your life in order, will stabilize the flow. Kindness to people and words of gratitude are the beginning of abundance's circulation. Small acts that delight someone will, in time, circle back as your own fruition.
