Raincoat

Interpretation

A raincoat shields you from showers while acknowledging the weather you walk through. Your dream suggests tender feelings—sadness, pity, or shame—asking for gentle containment. Guard your heart without numbing it.

Compassion feels safer when your boundaries stay fastened.

Common Meanings

• Putting on a raincoat: Preparing for emotional conversations, creating space to grieve, or practicing self-care before stepping into difficult environments
• Wearing a heavy or oversized coat: Carrying others’ burdens, noticing guilt, or adjusting boundaries to fit your frame
• Removing the raincoat after the storm: Letting vulnerability breathe, celebrating resilience, or sharing lessons learned with trusted allies

Cultural Context

Rain gear has long symbolized resilience in unpredictable climates. Dreaming of it highlights the importance of protective rituals when facing tender seasons.
