The thing is, your subconscious mind knows it’s there. It may be a tiny seed of fear deep inside of you – one that you barely even know exists. Whether you work with kids or not, snakes symbolize something that you are afraid of, intimidated by, anxious about, or worried about. When we have things on our mind during the day that are negative, to put it simply, they show up in our dreams dressed as snakes. Snakes, for most people are dream symbols for something (anything, really) that’s evil, bad, scary, or undesired in any way. Needless to say, the theme is actually beautiful – the thought that people who are in charge of kids care so much about “saving” them and protecting them that it carries over to their dreams. Honestly, this is such a recurring theme for people involved in education and kids that books could be written. the subconscious mind realizes just how much the individual sometimes feels as though he or she is fighting for a child or children without anyone backing them up. How could it not? Although most handle it admirably and you’d never really know the lack of support they sometimes encounter, their subconscious mind ALWAYS knows. Teachers aren’t even paid as much as they deserve – no doubt the frustration sometimes gets to them. They feel very overwhelmed, at times, due to a lack of parental support and/or a lack of support from the school system, principal, school board, etc. They’ve dedicated their lives to them, so they obviously feel very strongly about young people. One of the reasons I believe this is so common is that teachers, undoubtedly, often feel very much “up against it.” They love kids and sincerely want to help them. The frustration of the dream stays with these dreamers as much as the image of the snake or snakes do. Many will even say things like, “I know it’s going to hurt a lot of people and I want to stop it…” However, they can’t get anyone to get on board with them and help out. They’ll confront a snake (or another representation of evil) that they’re trying valiantly to destroy. MANY adults who work with kids, particularly teachers, frequently have a similar dream involving snakes: That’s a lot of dreams to be analyzed and studied! I’ve noticed something over the years that fascinates me. I’ve been a dreamologist for over 10 years. Here’s something that I find to be extremely fascinating. As someone with four cats, this is completely common for me and I never give it a second thought.įor most of us, however, snakes do represent BAD (fear, anxiety, frustration…). When they dream about snakes, they’re no more alarmed that I would be if I dreamed about cats. And when these snake-lovers have dreams about snakes, they usually symbolize something entirely different.
As a matter of fact, when a lot of people talk about their beloved pet, they’re referring to a snake. Granted, there are those who love snakes with the same type of adoration the rest of us have for our cats, dogs, birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, and so on. Snakes represent, to most of us anyway, great fear and uncommon anxiety.
