Window Dream Meaning

In dream and biblical terms a window signifies our own internal sight.

The window can be connected to some aspects of your own mentality. Windows in dreams show us the importance of our own mind. We need to look at why you had a dream about a window and more importantly what this can mean. The windows in dreams have distinct symbols of “looking through situations” No matter how old you are, it’s not too late to follow our dreams. This intensifies after having a dream of “reflection.”

Reading this dream meaning maybe the most important step you can take that you need to work towards advancement and finish what you have started. It is time to think about the type of life you wish to lead right now and it is time to succeed. When we look through a window we are seeing something different. A view or something that draws attention. If the window is clean this can imply that you need to look more deeply into areas of your life. Windows can indicate changing our attitude to life. A dream of dirty windows could mean that there are things in life that are not what they seem. To see rain or snow out of the window can indicate that you might be looking for a new start. The most important part of this dream is to look at where you see the window. If you are looking from your living room then this can imply that you are challenging your own comfort levels.

I recently had a dream whereby I was looking out of a window at people walking past. They were all going in one direction but coming towards me. They could not see me looking at them, strangely this was a few days after I launched this new website. It had to be the people that were coming to the site, I could see them as numbers on my traffic but not in real life. What you see "outside the window" dream is important. It can denote what direction you are going to go in now. Seeing something pretty like landscape can indicate calmness in life. 

Glass and the window

Glass is an important factor in the window dream. To see glass on the window, or open window indicates there is a barrier between you and something else. Seeing no glass can suggest there is no barrier. For example, in my dream above there was no glass. I was just looking at people walking past in a sort of framed window but I was inside.

Stained glass can mean happiness and joy. It suggests that you will be stained with all the colors of the rainbow! Dreaming of opening a window can mean opportunities will open. Windows often bring with them a different perspective and enable you to rethink areas of your life. To hear something or someone try to gain access to the window indicates that you will encourage change for the better.

Broken window dreams:

To dream of a broken window I believe means that we are focusing on moving forward with our life but we are not reviewing what this could potentially result in. There are many people that contacted me about dreams of “seeing people looking at them through windows.” Quite scary I know. If this is the case in your dream, it can signify that there are elements in your life that you're not too sure about.

Biblical meaning of a window:

If we turn to the Bible and look at the book of Judges there is a quote which says “through the window she looked forth” what I'm trying to say here is that in order to clarify and overcome any difficult situations or problems you need to look beyond your own mind and thinking. There is a key message presented in the dream: in that you must care for your own mind. No matter how many difficult situations or problems that you are currently facing the dream about a window can indicate that those problems can be rectified.
