What does it mean to dream of a storm? |

Dreaming of a storm can symbolically represent the level of energy or emotions that the dreamer keeps inside. These accumulated feelings can result in a storm. That is, dreaming of this phenomenon may indicate the need to channel that energy into something that will be productive.

Check out more details below to help you better understand what you dreamed of.

Reflect on the context of dreaming about a storm

How does the storm occur? How does the dreamer position himself in relation to her? What emotions does contact with this symbol evoke? Is there electricity in this storm?

Reflect on what the unconscious may be signaling when dreaming of a storm

Do I neglect my emotions to the point where I can no longer deal with them in a healthy way? Do I allow what exhausts and bothers me to be answered in a measured way or do I release everything at once in a destructive way in my relationships?

Understand possible applications of dreaming about a storm:

Dreaming that a storm is happening

Storms in a dream can indicate that the psyche is overloaded and has reached its limit. The storm teaches the dreamer that the accumulation of emotions can turn against him in a destructive way, and can erupt into impetuous attitudes that push away opportunities or discount frustrations on people or situations that are not necessarily the source of the discomfort.

To dream that you are sheltered from a storm

Being sheltered from a storm in a dream can indicate that there is a creative way out to avoid emotional outbursts. It can also bring reflection on ways to deal with the discomforts of reality. These ways can be meditative and resting states or learning to respond to discomforts in a “homeopathic” way, without letting them accumulate to the point where they can no longer be contained or released healthily.

What does the storm symbolize?

Storms are natural formations from a large amount of condensed water. It is water or ice that falls from the heavens in an intense, continuous and often violent way. It is a revolting expression of this element and full of movement, in all directions. As a psychic symbol, this information allows us to reflect on our internal storms, on a desperate and unrestrained cry, on the dynamics of flowing because we can no longer bear it.

The limit has been reached and now the dreamer is faced with an outcome that may be destructive, but not necessarily so. Again, it is necessary to observe how the dynamics of the dream as a whole take place and how the dreamer relates to the symbol.

Containing something too much, be it water, energy or emotions, certainly leads to accumulation, and the psyche is no different. Energy too contained one hour needs to be channeled, whether consciously or unconsciously, whether creatively or destructively.

Zeus, in mythology, was the god of storms, especially those with lightning, showing the electric, nervous and impetuous character of this symbol. Such electricity makes us reflect on the level of stress and exacerbation of limits that an accumulative attitude can generate.
