Rain

Universal Landscape: Emotional expression; tears.

Dreaming Lens: How severe or gentle was the rain? Were you prepared for the results of the rain? Did you enjoy it or was it unnerving to get wet? Did the rain feel romantic, sinister, welcome, limiting, or frustrating?

Personal Focus: Water is always a symbolic expression of emotion. Since falling rain is very similar to tears, rain is the closest representation to the act of crying. As such, it symbolizes the process of allowing our feelings to flow freely. Rain is considered cleansing for it washes away dirt particles and leaves the air clearer. Tears can also be said to wash debris from the soul. Rain indicates that an emotional experience is taking place that is ultimately healing. The Dreaming Lens will offer clues to what area of your life is evoking such a deep, emotional response. Your reactions to the rain as well as the quality of the rain itself will provide even more information for your exploration.

A light, gentle rain could indicate a small disruption in your life that is causing some emotional reactivity. Torrential downpours, such as hurricanes, point to more intense undercurrents of feelings being expressed. The relative intensity of the rain in your dream will mirror the intensity of what your unconscious is trying to express. How you respond to the rain in your dream will illuminate for you the level of resistance you are in. The mightier your attempts to escape the onslaught of the downpour, the more likely you are avoiding the free flow of emotional expression.

Rain

To be out in a clear shower of rain, denotes that pleasure will be enjoyed with the zest of youth, and prosperity will come to you.

If the rain descends from murky clouds, you will feel alarmed over the graveness of your undertakings.

To be sitting in the house and see through the window a downpour of rain, denotes that you will possess fortune, and passionate love will be requited.

To hear the patter of rain on the roof, denotes a realization of domestic bliss and joy. Fortune will come in a small way.

To dream that your house is leaking during a rain, if the water is clear, foretells that illicit pleasure will come to you rather unexpectedly; but if filthy or muddy, you may expect the reverse, and also exposure.

To find yourself regretting some duty unperformed while listening to the rain, denotes that you will seek pleasure at the expense of another’s sense of propriety and justice.

To see it rain on others, foretells that you will exclude friends from your confidence.

For a young woman to dream of getting her clothes wet and soiled while out in a rain, denotes that she will entertain some person indiscreetly, and will suffer the suspicions of friends for the unwise yielding to foolish enjoyments.

Rain

If you are caught in a rain shower or storm in your dream, the key to the interpretation will be your reaction. Did you feel miserable or elated? If the former, it is possible that an outpouring of emotion—your own or that of someone you know—is raining down on you in real life. The dream might also signify emotional release or the desire to feel love again. Rain does often have positive liberating associations in dreams, but if the descending water takes the form of hail, the message is negative as it may suggest that you are about to become the victim of stinging verbal abuse. Hail has similar associations to rain, but is much colder and harsher. A mere spot of drizzle or a brief shower would suggest a situation that is less serious.

In the Bible, the flood is a symbol of preparation for a new way of life or a fresh start. This meaning fits well with both Freud’s association between water and the womb, and Jung’s symbolism of the flood or deluge as both deadly and life giving. As a mother image, a flood submerging you or a house could suggest an intense relationship with your mother or another dominant female figure in your life; it may also suggest that you are feeling overwhelmed by life’s pressures.

This is a dream of strange variation in mean- ing depending on your cir-cumstances and on the character of the rain. A soft spring rain is a lucky omen promising many good things to come, in- cluding possible benefits from work done in the for- gotten past If you are struggling or only modest- ly well off, a heavy down- pour predicts a substantial improvement in your cir- cumstances; but if you are one of the affluent society, it signifies a period of re- verses.

A fine drizzle por-tends petty difficulties which will soon pass; to be out in an average kind of rainfall indicates the happy demise of an ailing affair, but to be drenched in a blowing rainstorm is an augury of unexpected wealth, likely to be through a legacy.

Rain

A sign of fertility, rain portends abundance and prosperity when it falls heavily: it may be that new stage of life is about to begin. However, it is a sign of obstacles if it becomes a downpour.

If it is light but steady, the fruits of your efforts will soon arrive; whereas, if it’s muddy, disasters and risks draw near. To see thunderclouds before rain denotes a fear of failure; and to hear the rain from inside, the tendency to delegate to your problems to others.

Generally, dreaming of rain is considered a good omen, unless it falls on livestock. In this case, it announces losses in business.

Interpretation is contingent on your current circumstances as well as the kind of rain that is falling. Rain naturally cleans, refreshes, and “provides life-giving moisture.” Depending on the dreamer it could suggest a period of renewal and fertility (reproduction or creativity). However, dark clouds and a heavy downpour indicate feelings of isolation and helplessness. On the other hand, the heavy downpour could represent unconscious materials and emotions attempting to enter the dreamer’s conscious mind.
