Blood Dream Meaning: From 37 Different Sources

Blood

Universal Landscape: Life force. Passion for living.

Dreaming Lens: What color was the blood? Was it a healthy red, or a depleted blue? Was it a strange and unnatural color? Was it flowing from a wound? If so, was it being lost slowly or rapidly? Was it in a container of some kind? Was blood being removed from or added to the physical body? Did you find it repulsive, or a source of fascination?

Personal Focus: The elixir of life, blood courses through our veins and keep our bodies alive and healthy. Lose enough of it and life slips away. If your dream includes receiving or losing blood, this may reflect a message that you are either in need of more energy or are being depleted by some situation. How this occurs in your dream will add texture to your interpretation. A wound inflicted by another may reflect an external struggle, whereas a medical procedure connects more to an internal process necessary for healing.

Science tells us that there are different kinds of blood and that certain types are incompatible with others. In fact, disparate types between a mother and her fetus can be life threatening. Therefore, dreaming of blood types could connect to conflicts about compatibility that are deeply rooted and may be impacting you in areas of life that you are passionate about. When blood type and compatibility are being examined, the stakes can be as high as life and death. HIV brings a whole new view of blood as something that is potentially dangerous, because it transmits this disease, effectively shifting our collective conscious view of blood as a substance to be potentially feared as contagious on a life-threatening level. Incorporate the Dreaming Lens into whatever issues of compatibility may be surfacing in your waking life.

Bloodlines have figured prominently as coveted evidence of ancestry throughout history. While this perspective may appear to be an archaic form of class-consciousness, we are now aware that blood typology is an effective tool to establish biological ties between family members. If this idea is expressed in your dream, your interpretation should reflect blood as connected to primal feelings about your family connections. Your dream may be expressing this as powerfully passionate, or energetically depleting, depending on the Dreaming Lens.

The color of blood is significant in a number of ways. If this is thematic in your dream, your interpretation must examine the meaning behind it. Oxygen-rich and healthy blood has a distinctive color of deep red that is found nowhere else in nature. If tapped out of nutrients, it turns blue. In the world of science fiction, the blood of alien beings can be anything from green to colorless chemical compounds made up of deadly acids.

There are also many culturally-based meanings associated with blood. The term “red-blooded” is synonymous with virility and strength. Conversely, to be “blue-blooded” connotes a passivity and lethargy related to wealth or privilege. Issues of racial prejudice often included erroneous beliefs that blood differed significantly between people of different cultural background or skin color. The mixing of bloodlines was considered by many as likely to have disastrous results. While that level of ignorance is not as prevalent today as in our past, the foundation of these beliefs still resides in the collective unconscious and can appear in your dreams and is worth considering.

Your personal reaction to blood is also a factor in interpreting this dream symbol. Some people are squeamish and the sight of blood can be very upsetting. For others, curiosity or a sense of eroticism may be stimulated. There are those, too, who are unaffected by the sight of blood by being accustomed to it if their profession frequently brings them in contact with it. Any of these responses can reveal your relationship to the levels of passion and life force you are currently experiencing.

Blood

Blood in a dream has many meanings. Some of the most common: To dream that you are bleeding represents a feeling of loss of power. You may be suffering from exhaustion or feeling emotionally drained. It may also denote bitter confrontations between you and your friends. Your past actions may have come back to haunt you. Try to avoid any sort of controversy with friends or relatives.

To stop the bleeding of yourself or others represents a vital, energetic nature. Dreams of blood when you can’t see who is bleeding means you are undergoing a confusing change in your real life.

If you dream of donating blood, or having a blood transfusion, you can expect your troubles to go away soon.

If you see the word “blood” written in your dream, it may refer to some situation in your life that is permanent and cannot be changed.

To dream of getting a blood clot inside you suggests that you are stuck in a difficult situation and feel powerless to make things better.

If you dream of passing a blood clot out of your body, you may have recently experienced a personal loss or disappointment.

A recent experience has left you feeling tired and possibly changed.

To dream of donating blood can mean you are worried about someone. It may also mean you are giving too much of yourself emotionally to others, and should save some time and energy for your own self.

To dream of having green blood suggests that you are jealous of a friend, or you are having friendship conflicts that are leaving you emotionally exhausted.

Blood

Blood is an important symbol, not only of life itself, but also of the soul, of physical strength and rejuvenation. Whether you were cut or seriously injured, dreams in which you are losing blood or suffer a hemorrhage may therefore refer to loss of moral or physical strength; they may simply indicate a need for more emotional nourishment. Dreaming of drinking blood or receiving a blood transfusion may refer to the opposite: gaining strength and vitality.

If a person you know gives you blood in your dream, your unconscious may have signaled that they have the potential to revitalize you.

If a woman dreams of blood, it may be associated with the onset of a period, the blood depicting whatever feelings she may have about menstruation. Blood is also a symbol of passion, love, anger and even violence.

Blood on the ground or blood stains on clothes in a dream suggest great injury or emotional pain to someone, perhaps to you or someone you know.

If you dream of blood in a sexual context, this may refer to loss of virginity, fertility or menstruation.

Blood

Bloodshed symbolizes the sacrifice. All liquid materials that ancients offered to the dead, spirits, and to the gods (milk, honey, wine) were images or allegories of blood. This was the most precious gift, and was presented in classical cultures through the sacrifice of lamb, pig, and bull. Further, it is a symbol of life.

If you dream that you are bleeding out, you may experience physical tiredness or you may feel emotionally drained. On the other hand, it could also indicate a profound change in your personality. In either case, blood can represent a range from passion and love to fury and violence.

It is an admonition that you reflect on your actions, as you may be forgetting one of your values. (See RED)

In antiquity, one was supposed to drink the blood of sacrificed animals during rituals. It manifested the union of the force and power of man with that of the gods. In this sense, dreaming that you are drinking blood could foretell that you will receive energy and renovated vitality.

Blood

Red. ‘Blood is a very special liquid,” (Goethe: Faust, Part I)—it is that which is alive, the driving sub- stance, expressing fire and passion (something that Freud and Jung agreed on). Life, love, and passion, hut also injury and disappointment. Blood also—and often—points to Mother, and can symbolize soul and will. When the “voice of the blood” is speaking, a very special sensibility or domination of one’s urges is being addressed.

Exchanging blood (or drinking blood) represents a joining of life forces (brotherhood).

The blood of Christ is symbolically served at communion; it has a universal healing power.

Loss of blood usually means loss in love; blood transfusion corresponds to the strengthening of vitality.

Blood

(1) Blood may be a symbol of life, or, if shed, of death, and therefore - if on one’s hands — of guilt.

(2) Blood may also symbolize passion, especially love or anger.

(3) Possibly the blood is (displaced) menstrual blood. By ‘displaced’ I mean that what you are really seeing in your dream may be menstrual blood even though it appears as just a pool of blood on the pavement or a nosebleed.

If you are a woman, such a dream may be expressing a sexually related anxiety; if you are a man, it may express your horror - that is, fear - of sex and / or women.

(4) Drinking blood means receiving (new’) life or strength. (In religious ritual, symbolically drinking the blood of a sacrificed human or animal may symbolize participation in the life and powder of God.)

Blood

Dreaming of blood can have one of two meanings. It can signify that we feel that a sacrifice is being made on some level. This links into the ancient belief that the blood somehow contained the life of the spirit and, therefore, spilt blood was sacred. It can also represent renewal of life through its connection with menstruation. Many people fear blood and thus a dream about blood can highlight the need to come to terms with these fears. On a more spiritual level it represents the blood of christ. Also consult the individual entry for blood.

Blood

One’s energy and sense of existence. Being hurt—such as hurtful remarks, being told we are not loved—can sap our motive to live and may be depicted as blood, injury, often from past trauma, which is causing us to lose energy or moti­vation, our fundamental biological, evolutionary life, and thus a link with all life, so seen as a sacrament. This is portrayed not as injury but nourishment, wine or bloody meat. In sexual dreams: may refer to loss of virginity, menstruation or fertility, or hurt to sexual drive.

Blood

Blood has a rich and complex symbology and can represent any number of different kinds of human experiences. Because of certain familiar experiences and metaphors, many of these do not require explanation (e.g., menstrual blood may symbolize fertility; one can be “bled dry”; one may have “blood on one’s hands”). Blood often represents vitality and the life force. Images of confused, bloody violence often occur in the dreams of people undergoing some sort of emotional upheaval.
