Mirror in a dream
A mirror in a dream is read as a meeting with yourself: it shows how you feel in your own skin.
Old dream books say a mirror in a dream is not about looks but about how you see yourself. A clean mirror and a bright face are read as being content with yourself and honest, a fogged one as a doubt about some choice. In folk belief, whoever looks in a mirror in a dream will soon understand their own wishes better. Folk tradition softened the tales about a broken mirror long ago: it is only a sign that an old picture is changing and making room for a new one.
The most common dreams
Dreaming of looking at yourself in a mirror
Read as a moment of honesty with yourself. It is said you will make a decision you will be happy with.
Dreaming of a broken mirror
In folk belief, you are changing your opinion of yourself or of someone else, and for the better. The dream carries nothing bad, only a change of view.
Dreaming of a fogged-up mirror
Old dream books say you are not yet sure what you want. A little time is enough, just as steam clears from glass by itself.
Dreaming of someone else's face in a mirror
It is said you look up to someone or are discovering a new side of yourself. It is read as growth and curiosity.
These interpretations come from folk tradition and are meant for fun; they do not predict the future and are not advice for life decisions.
