ARMOR
DREAM DICTIONARY
If you are dressed in armor in your dream, do you need to protect yourself against something or someone? In donning such heavy attire, you are better protected but you also restrict your movement; perhaps your unconscious is telling you that it might be better to open up about what is troubling you, instead of keeping it a closely guarded secret. If chains feature alongside the armor, this is a symbol of enslavement and unhappiness with your current commitments. If your chains break or are broken, this is a positive sign.
Protection and Defense:
Armor is a symbol of protection and defense. Dreaming about armor may suggest a need for emotional, psychological, or physical protection. It could indicate that you are facing challenges or feeling vulnerable and are seeking ways to shield yourself.
Emotional Barriers:
Armor in a dream might represent emotional barriers or walls you have built to protect yourself from hurt or disappointment. It could be a reflection of guardedness or a fear of being emotionally exposed.
Facing Challenges:
Dreaming about armor may symbolize your readiness to face challenges or confront difficult situations. It could indicate that you are preparing to defend yourself or overcome obstacles in your waking life.
Defensiveness:
Alternatively, dreaming of armor might suggest that you or someone else is being overly defensive. It could be a sign that you are putting up walls that prevent open communication or connection with others.
Strength and Resilience:
Armor is often associated with strength and resilience. Dreaming about armor may symbolize your inner strength and ability to withstand adversity. It could be a reminder of your capacity to endure challenges.
Self-Image:
Consider the condition of the armor in the dream. If the armor is shiny and well-maintained, it might reflect a positive self-image and confidence. On the other hand, if the armor is rusty or damaged, it could indicate feelings of inadequacy or vulnerability.
Spiritual Protection:
In some spiritual or esoteric traditions, armor can be a symbol of spiritual protection. Dreaming about armor may suggest a desire for spiritual strength and guidance.
