Bomb Dream Meaning

Bomb Dream Meaning

Bombs can have an understandable link to the feelings within you. If you or anyone around has been in a terrible mood lately, then this dream can signify it is time for you or the others to chill out. A bomb in a dream usually represents a destructive force or event. They can represent repressed anger or rage that is about to explode. If you dream about bombs, you may be preparing for some element of yourself or your life to "blow up." Dreams about bombs may also indicate an impending threat or danger.

Bangs, Explosions, and bombs, especially with fire flashes and perhaps seeing the world tumbling down about are never nice to see in a dream. Seeing such a damaging set of events in dreams causes an understandable emotional surge.  I always feel that the dreamer is feeling overwhelmed by some situation in their life when bombs present themselves in dreams. The stress and anxiety of a situation could be manifesting themselves in your dreams - just as the bomb goes off. Another interpretation outlined by Sigmund Freud is that the dream could be a way to repress anger or rage that is about to explode in waking life. Therefore, I believe that maybe this dream could be a warning to the dreamer to deal with some challenging issues before they get out of control.

What do explosion, fire, and bomb dreams mean in the bible?

The Bible often uses fire and explosions as symbols of God's anger and punishment.
