Mirror

Mirrors in dreams reflect self-perception, truth, introspection, and how you see yourself or wish to be seen by others.

Interpretation

Mirrors in dreams are powerful symbols of self-reflection and self-awareness. They invite you to examine how you see yourself, how you present yourself to the world, and what truths you may be avoiding or confronting.

Common Meanings

  • Clear Reflection: Honest self-assessment, clarity about identity
  • Distorted Image: Confusion about self-image, distorted self-perception
  • Broken Mirror: Fragmented self-image, bad luck beliefs, shattered illusions
  • Can’t See Reflection: Loss of identity, feeling invisible or unacknowledged
  • Different Appearance: Desire for change, alternative self-image, transformation

Cultural Context

Mirrors have long been associated with truth, vanity, and portals to other realms. From Narcissus to the Magic Mirror in Snow White, mirrors reveal both literal and metaphorical truths.

Personal Reflection

Consider these aspects of your mirror dream:

  • What did you see (or not see) in the mirror?
  • How did seeing your reflection make you feel?
  • Was the mirror clear, broken, or unusual in some way?
  • Were you alone, or did others see your reflection?

Mirror dreams often emerge during periods of self-examination or when you’re questioning your identity or how others perceive you.
