Enemy Dream Meaning

Dreaming of an enemy often mirrors an unresolved conflict inside you, and it does not mean someone in your waking life is actually against you. Who the enemy is and what you do when you face them shows where the conflict lies.

• Seeing someone you know as an enemy

  Some hidden anger or mistrust remains in your relationship with that person, perhaps something that was never said out loud.

• An unknown or shadowy enemy

  This points to a side of yourself that your mind is reluctant to accept. The enemy is often the face of a feeling such as greed or jealousy that you find uncomfortable to admit even to yourself.

• Fighting an enemy and winning

  It speaks of getting back confidence you had lost.

• Running away from an enemy

  Avoiding a problem again and again has become a habit for you.

• An enemy suddenly becoming a friend

  It speaks of a wish to make peace. Deep down, your mind is ready to clear up an old misunderstanding with someone.

The real work of this dream is not to show you who your enemy is. It brings up the feelings you have not yet found the courage to talk about openly.
