Roots in a dream
Roots in a dream are read as family, origins and a firm support that holds you when a stronger wind blows.
Old dream books tie roots to home, ancestors and everything you have grown from. In folk belief a dream about roots comes when you are looking for safety or thinking back to childhood and the place you come from. A deep, strong root is read as stability and good foundations, the thin root of a sapling as a beginning that is only just taking hold. This dream is believed to remind you that you are not alone and have someone to lean on.
The most common dreams
Dreaming of the deep roots of a tree
It is read as a strong bond with your family and your home region. People say that bond looks after you wherever the road may take you.
Dreaming of planting a rooted seedling
By tradition you are beginning something that will last a long time. The dream announces patient work that will, in time, bring you a fine harvest.
Dreaming of roots showing above the ground
Old dream books say an old family story or memory is coming to light. You will be glad to hear it and to learn something new about your own people.
Dreaming of tripping over a root
It is believed a small thing stops you briefly only so that you look where you are going. They say you will walk more carefully and more surely afterwards.
These interpretations come from folk tradition and are meant for fun; they do not predict the future and are not advice for life decisions.
