What Do Dreams About Snow Mean?

Have you been sleepwalking through a winter wonderland? Dreaming about snow can symbolize many things and like most dreams can be a message from your subconscious or the Universe. 

What Dreaming of Snow Symbolizes

Snow can be a magical thing and inspire a sense of wonder and awe. For many ancient civilizations and indigenous cultures, winter is the perfect backdrop for lore and storytelling. Snow symbolizes themes of healing, rebirth, and endurance. 

To decipher what snow in a dream might mean, think of your personal relationship with snow. Is it a chore to live in or a beautiful addition to your season? Do you enjoy the cold or do you long for summer days? How you feel about snow is a big indicator of whether its appearance in your dream may be positive or negative.

The meaning of a dream is often highly situational and personal. Below are some of the most common meanings, but speaking to an expert Dream Analysis Psychic can offer you an in-depth perspective on your dream’s meaning.

Dreaming of Snowy Landscapes

Dreaming of a peaceful, snow-covered landscape can symbolize a strength of intuition and spiritual awareness. If you’ve been having a hard time this winter, the dream of glistening snow can be a reminder to be kind to yourself.

When snow falls fresh, it’s pure white. Dreaming of fresh snow can set the stage for a time of reflection and herald new beginnings, a symbol of a clean slate in the new year.

Dreaming of the Holidays

Winter is a time for holidays, so snow in a dream may echo feelings embedded around these festive months. It can also be a reminder that the sun and light are returning to our lives soon, and that the slumbering darkness does not last forever.

Dreaming of enjoying the snow with others, whether out on a sled or indoors with a cup of cocoa, can symbolize the close-knit relationships that help you make it through the winter. If the holidays were a time that brought you a lot of joy as a child, dreaming of this time can suggest the desire to enjoy a simpler and innocent time.

Dreaming of Deep Snow or Ice

Dreaming of deep or heavy snow that’s hard to walk through can reveal feelings of frustration or highlight areas where you may feel stuck or uncertain. 

If the path in your dream is icy, it may be a warning to proceed with caution in your waking life. If the snow is melting away in your dream, it can serve as a message to stay resilient as the road ahead begins to clear.

Dreaming of Snow Outside of Winter

Dreaming of snow that happens at an unlikely time like in the middle of a summer BBQ, may be a warning that things don’t always go as planned. It can be a helpful reminder to prepare for even the most unlikely of situations.

Dreaming of Individual Snowflakes

Dreaming about snowflakes can be a reminder that people are naturally unique, because no two snowflakes are alike. There’s beauty in each individual big and small. It can remind us of the power of unity and order that can be created when we come together. As each snowflake slowly falls and builds up, it is a reminder that change and progress can take time.

Because snowflakes are quick to melt, a dream with them can also serve as a timely reminder that moments are fleeting. By practicing mindfulness and recording progress in a dream journal we can hold on to these moments for just a little bit longer.

Dreaming of Coming in from the Cold

Dreaming of coming in from the snow can be a signal that easier and warmer times are up ahead. Many creatures — including humans, are able to conserve resources and employ adaptation skills in order to survive the snow. Dreams of snow remind us that we are strong as individuals and even stronger as a community.

Other Meanings of Dreams About Snow

Melting snow can also be a sign that secrets or suppressed emotions are coming to the surface and are ready to be shared. Defrosting your feelings might seem scary at first- but spring is on the horizon with a season of rebirth and peace.

If the snow is falling softly in a dream, it may divulge themes of purity and innocence. On the other hand, if the snow in your dream is part of a darkened storm, it may signal feelings of anxiety and worry, particularly about unknown factors in your life.

Dreams are often anchored in challenges and events that we are facing in our waking lives. Take note of how you feel before and after you wake. Keeping a dream journal may help you decode the meaning behind dreams about snow along with any other memorable dreams that come to you as you sleep.
