Dreaming of snow

Meaning and interpretation

What does dreaming of snow mean?

Dreaming of snow often evokes calm, purity and silence, but also cold and stillness. Gently falling snow tends to reflect a peaceful period or a fresh start, a blank page; a blizzard or frozen landscape, a feeling of isolation, frozen emotions or a stalled situation.

Questions to ask yourself when you wake up

A dream's meaning lives in your own context, not in a dictionary. These three questions get you there faster.

  1. 1

    Did the snow calm you, or isolate you?

  2. 2

    Has a relationship or project cooled recently?

  3. 3

    Do you want to start over on something?

A dream predicts nothing and diagnoses nothing. If a distressing dream keeps coming back and weighs on your days, talk to a health professional.
