Smile Dream Meaning

Seeing someone smile in a dream, or smiling yourself, usually speaks of contentment and a good connection with someone. An open smile brings relief in waking life, and in a dream its effect is much the same: you wake feeling a little lighter. The meaning depends on whose smile it is and in what setting you see it.

• Someone you know laughing freely

  That relationship is in a good place right now.

• A stranger's smile

  This can be a sign that you are open to a new opportunity or a new relationship.

• Your own smile feeling forced

  In waking life you may be hiding inner pain and pretending to be fine.

• Someone smiling mockingly

  This points to a fear of being humiliated, or to a lack of self-confidence.

• A smile breaking through tears

  Even in a hard time, hope is still alive inside you.

However tangled your feelings are, a real smile can still heal a great deal, and a dream of smiling reminds you of that.
