Volcano

Interpretation

Volcanoes symbolize explosive emotions, repressed anger emerging violently, passionate creative force, or destructive power rising from unconscious depths. They represent pressure building until inevitable eruption.

Common Meanings

• Erupting Volcano: Explosive anger, passion released, repressed emotions surfacing
• Dormant Volcano: Controlled power, repressed emotions, potential danger
• Running from Lava: Escaping destructive emotions, avoiding consequences
• Volcano Threatening: Building pressure, imminent eruption, suppressed anger
• Creating Land: Destructive creation, transformation through intensity

Cultural Context

Volcanoes represent earth’s creative and destructive power—creating land through destruction, Pele’s fire, Pompeii’s doom. They symbolize forces that cannot be contained indefinitely.

Personal Reflection

Consider:

• What emotions are building pressure?
• What anger has been repressed?
• What creative force seeks expression?
• What needs controlled release versus explosion?

Volcano dreams often arise during repressed anger, building emotional pressure, passionate creative urges, or when destructive forces threaten to overwhelm through explosive release.
