Dreams A–Z
Explore our complete collection of dream interpretations and discover the hidden meanings behind your nocturnal visions.
Shadow Circus
A twilight fair where performers and shadows blur; the dreamer observes a show that feels intimate, uncanny, and revealing.
Shark
A powerful predator in the dreamscape: instinct, boundary-testing, deep emotion, or a looming challenge that demands attention.
Shawl
A wearable wrap that shelters the shoulders and throat—symbol of warmth, protection, identity and the borders between public and private self.
Shed
A small outbuilding or the act of shedding — a place for tools, storage, shelter, and secrets; boundary between inside and outside; invites practical clearing or letting go of held identity.
Shelf
A shelf in a dream often stands for how you arrange, display, and contain parts of your life — priorities, memories, responsibilities and the stories you keep on view.
Shield
A protective barrier seen as armor, a hand-held shield, or an invisible field that blocks harm or feeling; symbolic of safety, boundary and readiness.
Ship of Leaves
A boat woven from leaves: a fragile vessel that travels on water or air, suggesting a journey held together by natural, shifting materials.
Shoulder
The shoulder as a dream symbol highlights support, burden, responsibility and the place where action meets relationship — what you carry and who carries you.
Shovel
A tool for digging, moving weight, and changing ground — symbolizing effort, uncovering, burial, and practical transformation.
Shrew
A small, quick mammal symbolizing sharp perception, survival instincts, boundary testing, and sometimes irritability or overlooked resourcefulness.
Shrine
A small, sacred space in the dream that holds offerings, a focal image, or a quiet light — a place of attention and devotion.
Shutter
A shutter — window or camera — opening or closing: a threshold that controls light, exposure, privacy and which moments are kept or released.
Signal Fire
A deliberate flame raised to be seen: a beacon of alert, guidance, or warning sent across distance.
Silence
A hush in the dream that feels deliberate rather than empty — an invitation to listen inward.
Silent Forest
A hushed woodland where sound is muted and movement is measured — a place of retreat, listening, and slow discovery.
Silhouette
A shadowy outline of a person or object lacking interior detail — the form is clear but the content is obscured. Often seen at dusk or backlit.
Silken Mask
A smooth silk mask suggests soft concealment: elegance that hides, protection that comforts, and a sensual layer between inner truth and outer presence.
Silo
A tall, enclosed storehouse symbolizing containment, preservation, hidden resources, or isolation — a vertical container of what you keep safe or locked away.
Silver Compass
A small silver compass guiding direction — literal navigation and inner moral/intuitive orientation; metallic clarity, cool reassurance, a tool that points before words do.
Silver Locket
A small silver pendant that opens to reveal a photo, inscription, or hidden object — a vessel of memory, secret, and intimate link to another person or time.
Silver Thread
A thin, luminous strand that appears in dreamscenes as a guide, connector, or fragile lifeline between people, places, or choices.
Sink
A domestic basin where water gathers, drains, clogs, overflows, or is absent — intimate site of cleansing, stagnation and repair.
Siren Song
A bewitching melody that calls from water or distance, testing boundary, desire, and direction.
Skiff
A small, simple boat carrying a lone or few passengers across shallow or changeable waters — symbol of modest journeys, self-reliance, and delicate passage.
