Snake Dreams Meaning and Interpretation

What does snake mean in a dream?

Snake is one of the animals often appear in our dreams. It is popular in the folk that dreaming about the snake is a symbol of wealth. In the psychological analysis of dreams, however, the snake doesn't mean wealth but has multiple meanings like sex, wisdom and intuition.
First of all, the snake in our dreams is symbolic. In women's dreams, the snake is a symbol of penis while the viper symbolizes sexual assault. The attitude to the snake in the dream, such as love, hate and fear, often indicates the dreamer's attitude towards sex. The common dreams include being chased, wrapped or bitten by a snake. Running away or running after is a symbol of the dreamer's fear of sex; being wrapped by a snake is a symbol of making love between a man and a woman; if a woman often dreams about being bitten by a snake, she may have been worried about being sexually assaulted.

Sometimes, the snake in the dream is a symbol of wisdom. In the myths and folklores of many countries, the snake represents the wise and the gods. So, if the snake in the dream has the myth color, it often represents wisdom.

Sometimes, the snake in the dream symbolizes intuition which is one of the four psychological functions and tells you how to do. The snake is a nimble animal similar to our intuitive response.

Sometimes, the snake in the dream also symbolizes temptation. For example, in catching a frog, the snake would keep its body unmoved and stare at the frog; after the frog letting down the guard, the snake would suddenly attack the frog. Likewise, if the similar scene appears in your dream, such as being stared by a snake, it may suggest that you will meet someone who is very attractive.

In addition, the snake also represents evil, cunning, cold-bloodedness and deception, which is same with its image in many myths and folklores. In the Bible, it is the snake that tempted Eve to eat the forbidden fruit.

In terms of physiology, the snake also represents the spine and the wounded snake may indicate the spine lesion.
