Clothes

Clothes Dream Meaning
To me, life is like a wardrobe. Every piece of clothing you have in this wardrobe indicates a decision, a chapter, a moment in your life. This dream means you're tired. Tired of all the crap in life.
In most books I have read, dreaming has been comparable to conscious life for Jung. He also saw dreaming was an expression of individualism as real and important as everything else you will do in the active state. Jung also thought that the human being should go through individuation to be happy, fertile, and integrated. The end of the process happens when the conscious and also the unconscious become compatible and complement one another. They are going to then be able to communicate peacefully with one another so clothes in dreams is all about this individualization in life.
What is the spiritual meaning of a clothes dream?
Some clothes might be so comfy and others not and you are probably wondering what the clothes dreams actually mean. Seeing really worm or horrible clothes represent the struggles, mistakes, and lessons you've been through. But here's the key, each piece has its purpose. The tattered jeans taught you resilience, while the elegant suit reminded you of the heights you can reach.
If you are wearing a school uniform or standard business attire in your dream, you may be feeling as if you are misunderstood or unheard. Nobody listens to your input, or else you do not contribute as much as you would like to. A uniform signifies that you are feeling like part of the pack, somebody who blends in with the crowd. Try to be more open and expressive in your daily life. Sit down with your boss and ask what you are doing well and what things you could try to work on. Tell a loved one something that is bothering you. Make yourself heard.
Is the dream of clothes good or bad?
Clothes in dreams often mean little aspects of your personality or the roles you play in life, I think this is a good dream. For example, wearing a formal tie and suit might represent a desire to appear professional or competent, while trainers and things like that might indicate a more relaxed outlook in life. I also feel the colors and styles of the clothes can provide further insight into your emotions and mindset during the dream. Sometimes, our outer clothing expresses our inner emotions. In waking life, our clothes try to help us better express who we are as people. In a dream about clothes, then, you may be searching to better communicate or understand you true inner self.
What is the meaning of clothes in your dreams?
If you are wearing formal clothes in your dream, you are afraid that others see you as cold and rigid. Your subconscious is using these clothes to tell you that people around you may sometimes fear you rather than respect you. Do something nice for someone you normally would not recognize. Make someone feel loved or recognized for his or her achievements. You will feel better about yourself, and others will begin to look up to you for the right reasons.
If you find yourself dressed as a specific career choice (clown outfit, nurse uniform, janitorial clothes, etc.), your dream wants you to think about how that specific job pertains to your life. If, for example, you are in a clown outfit, your subconscious is begging you to become more expressive and to do more fun things. If you are in a nurse’s or doctor’s clothes, you may need to take better care of your health. If you are in a janitor’s uniform, you have either been neglecting your duties, or you have been overly concerned with things around the house.
If you dream that you are dressed inappropriately in any way, your dream is showing you that it is time to stop worrying about your emotions. Your dream self has worn an inappropriate outfit (such as a workout outfit at a wedding), your subconscious is trying to express its true self rather than hiding behind conventions. Sometimes, it is okay to break the rules and stand out a little bit. Try not to worry so much about what other people think of you.
If you are proud of what you are wearing in your dream, then you have an easy time expressing your emotions, and you generally exude confidence. Be careful though; some may see this as excessive pride or arrogance.
If you are ashamed of your outfit, you might need to change something in your life. You are having trouble communicating your feelings or you are doubtful about a major life change. Address these issues in your life, and see what can be changed so that you can better express your true self.
If you put clothes on in the dream, you are hiding behind a false front. In other words, there is something holding you back from accomplishing a task. If you are taking clothes off, on the other hand, then you are good at expressing yourself and you do not make excuses. If you are entirely without clothes, you may be exposing too much information about yourself, or you are lying about something important. If you are attacked by clothes in your dream, you are feeling so many emotions that you are unsure how to deal with them.
What does it mean to dream of tatty worn or torn clothes?
To dream of old, tatty worn-out, or holey clothing could mean feeling of insecurity. It might suggest you need to have more self-worth. To wear tatty clothes in the dream means you may have gone around and around a million times with some people. To dream of others in tatty clothes mean you have protection behind you and someone is feeling it and they are in their karma.
