SYMBOLISMAll transformations are invested with something at once of profound mystery and of the shameful, since anything that is so modified as to become ‘something else’ while still remaining the thing that it was, must inevitably be productive of ambiguity and equivocation. Therefore, metamorphoses must be hidden from view—and hence the need for the mask. Secrecy tends towards transfiguration: it helps what-one-is to become what-one-would-like-to-be; and this is what constitutes its magic character, present in both the Greek theatrical mask and in the religious masks of Africa or Oceania. The mask is equivalent to the chrysalis.
The mask, simply as a face, comes to express the solar and energetic aspects of the life-process.
Wearing a mask in a dream can suggest presenting a false persona to others to protect against ridicule and shame.
To dream that you disguise yourself with a mask reveals that you do not feel comfortable with your personality. Consequently, you hide behind an artificial element to become successful. Although the mask may protect you from others, this attitude leaves your true self on a lower plane. You must ask yourself why you put it on.
It is necessary to gather your courage to be who you really are.
According to Arab tradition, he who has a pure soul will never be disappointed by his dreams. Otherwise, it will means that we are fooling ourselves.
Deceit from an unsuspected quarter is indicated in a dream of a person (or people) disguised by a mask. If your dream concerned wearing one yourself, it predicts that you will end up with a profit from a scheme intended to cheat you.
A mask covers the true face and presents a particular version of one’s persona to the world. This is a symbol for the way in which human beings never quite reveal all of who they are, but there are masks that are presented to the world. This occurs in degrees of authenticity, and a mask in a dream indicates a stronger separation between what is being presented and the true identity that is hidden below.
Consider the mask itself from the dream; if you know what it looks like, you will have a better idea of what you are trying to portray at the time of the dream. If the mask is being removed, you are stepping into a more genuine version of your self-expression.
If you wear a mask in your dream, you are putting on an act for others or maybe even for yourself. This isn’t you, but you feel more comfortable being this other person right now. You might be protecting yourself—this disguise is more comfortable. Or maybe you just don’t want to admit the truth.
If you dream someone else is wearing a mask, someone is hiding something from you.
