Pants Dream Meaning

Seeing pants in a dream is usually tied to how you present yourself to the outside world and how prepared you feel. Pants cover the lower body, the part you lean on to move around, so they often become a symbol of practical sense and your ability to make everyday decisions. What happens to the pants decides the meaning of the dream.

• Pants tearing or suddenly falling down

  Behind this hides a quiet fear of being embarrassed in public. Perhaps you feel unprepared in some situation.

• Not being able to find your pants

  You feel hesitant about taking on some responsibility.

• Wearing new pants that fit well

  This is a picture of confidence. You feel comfortable in a new role in life.

• Putting on someone else's pants by mistake

  This dream carries a passing doubt about your own identity, or a feeling of having taken on someone else's responsibilities.

Even something as ordinary as a pair of pants can remind you in a dream that confidence often hides in small preparations.
