Dream meaning of money

To dream of money generally means positive omens. It may indicate that you will soon receive pleasant news that represents professional advancement or personal joy. However, it may be a warning for you to save and avoid spending on unnecessary things.

Dreams about money lead us to several interpretations.

If you gave money to someone, the omen is positive, it indicates good and unexpected earnings; lending money is a warning that you will receive good news; and if you borrowed money from someone or from a financial agent, the advice is to cut superfluous expenses, to save, because hard times are coming.

When, in a dream, you use money to pay someone or something, it indicates good fortune in the future and increased material gains. If you have asked for money or received money, the time is favorable for new investments. If you dream that you find money, it is a sign that you will be able to rise in the professional field; and if you lose money, it is a warning, try to invest in studies, recycle your knowledge, because you will need it.

Any form of money exchange is a sign of material increase. When, in a dream, you spend money moderately, it is a sign that an unforeseen stroke of luck will change your life; however, spending money excessively is an announcement that you need to value the spiritual side more.

Those who count money in a dream, can expect good luck in all areas of their life. To keep money is an omen of happiness in the affective and personal field. If you saw a lot of money in a dream, it is a warning for you not to risk new investments or a new job, wait a little longer.

If you dream you are stealing money, it is good to pay more attention to your health, take care of yourself, otherwise you will be affected by an illness; and if you dream you are burning money, expect a birth in the family or a grand trip.

Counterfeit money, any form of involvement, is a sign of complications ahead, beware.

To Dream that You Found Money

If you dreamed that you found money, anywhere, it doesn’t mean that you will find $20 bills lying around, but it does represent that you will be lucky in your life and that very soon you will be rewarded with things that will be worth much more than just money.

To Dream of Counterfeit Money

To dream of counterfeit money represents that you are going to be disappointed with someone you used to like who turned out to be bad faith toward you.

To dream of paper money is a sign that you will find money somewhere soon. It may also mean that you will receive more money for your work. Perhaps extra for your competence and good services, or even a rewarding increase in your salary.

To dream of torn money

To dream of torn money is not a good sign, because it can mean that you have made bad financial choices, and even though you may fool yourself and try to convince yourself that the choices were correct, you deep down inside know that they were not. It represents money that you invested that didn’t bring you any return, as if you literally tore money.

To Dream of Money in Coins

Coins, since forever, have been considered as a sign of emotion. If you dreamed of money in coins, it means that your emotions are mixed, shuffled, both bad and good, such as coins of little value and coins of great value. It means that you are emotionally confused and need some time to relax and reflect on your life, venting your emotions and letting them flow.

To dream of money in your wallet

A wallet is the place where you keep your money, representing a safe place. To dream of money in your wallet means that you are at a time when you need to prioritize your financial stability, keeping everything you have of greater value where only you will have access. Restrain your spending, save your earnings, and save your money so that in times of trouble you will have some “fat to burn”.

To dream of money in your pocket

If you dreamed that you had a pocket full of money, it means that you will be successful in just about anything you put your mind to. It represents all your talents, skills and competencies that are hidden and have not yet been developed, but that with the passage of time and the demands that life gives us, they will appear and take you to the places where you will use them to their full potential.

When you have money and use it carelessly, usually for fun, you end up spending too much and before you know it you are penniless and have no one to pay your debts. You end up alone and without money. Pay attention to your attitudes and be more careful with how you manage what you have.

To dream of money paying off debts

Being in debt is a horrible situation, because you feel trapped into an obligation to pay off that debt. If you dream that you are paying off your debts, it means that you will be satisfied and relieved, unlike the distress you previously felt from being in debt.

    Any dream that involves money is connecting to the principles of abundance, power, and freedom. In a dream, money often represents your inner resources. Your sense of personal value, power, or the ability to make something happen can be expressed by the symbol of money. As a symbol, large amounts of money can represent any sort of achievement or sense of fulfillment as an unconscious expression of desires met.

    No matter what the financial situation in your waking life, your dream state can find you available for limitless abundance or attached to absolute lack. Since money in life is symbolic in nature, in the dream world it can represent any form of abundance. The appearance of this in a dream could connect to the acquisition of any desire, from a new sense of inner riches to outward expressions of expansion such as a new relationship, job, or other appearance of a heart’s desire. On the opposite side of the spectrum, money in a dream could be pointing out feelings of lack that you are experiencing in life. As a wish fulfillment or compensatory dream, connecting to money could be balancing out feelings of limitation.

    Money that is counterfeit is revealing a relationship to abundance that is false or inauthentic. Though it may look real, it has been manufactured with dubious intentions. In a dream, this might point to ways in which you are (or someone in your life is) trying to get away with presenting yourself as bigger than you really are. Also be willing to look at the various aspects of your current situation; are there circumstances in your life that are costing you more than you can afford? This can apply to both material and emotional conditions. Look at the amount of money or lack of money in the dream as connoting how much or little of some needed commodity appears in your life. This can be spiritual, emotional, or physical. How abundant do you feel?
