Dreams of Snake Biting You: Meanings, Remedies, and Significance in Astrology

Psychologists talk about the subconscious mind and how it is a repository for all the things we have suppressed from our conscious mind, because they make us afraid or guilty. But, from time to time, the things we hide deep in our subconscious mind will find their way to the surface in the form of dreams.

Snake dreams are quite common. They are rather frightening because snakes are poisonous creatures with negative connotations. Many believe that they represent evil, especially in the Christian tradition. In Hindu mythology, they are mystical and powerful creatures associated with various deities, including Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu. In Vedic astrology, they represent Rahu and Ketu, which many consider as malefic planets capable of causing many problems in life, if they are afflicted in a person’s birth chart. Hindu belief offers both religious and cultural meanings for snake dreams. 

Swapna Shastra, an ancient religious text, states that snake dreams are considered auspicious. It indicates that you may enter into a new relationship, secure a new job, or heal from heartbreak caused by toxic relationships. 

In this article, we will look at some of the meanings of snake dreams.
