Steam Dream Meaning
Dream interpretation
Dreaming of steam is often seen as a sign of obscured vision. It can indicate a cloudy state of the eyes or symptoms of cataracts. If you dream of steam coming from your mouth during the summer, it may be a warning to pay attention to your health or eyesight. Such dreams remind you of the need to focus on your physical condition.
Ibn Sirin
Steam — Islamic interpretation
From Imam Muhammad Ibn Seerin's Dictionary of Dreams According to Islamic Inner Traditions — entry "Steam" (page 412) — resolved via the equivalent "Vapor" entry.
In a dream, vapor represents a symptom of cataract that makes one's eye cloudy and obscures his sight. If during the summer one sees vapor exhaling from his mouth in a dream, which is a common phenomena in cold weather, it means an internal disease, or exposing one's secrets. If the person in question in such a dream is a believer on the path, he may become heedless. Ifhe is a man of knowledge, he may invent a provoking trend. On the other hand, vapor in a dream may imply falsehood, lies and idle talk. (Also see Clouds)
Note: Islamic dream interpretation depends on the dreamer's circumstances and state. This is a general guide drawn directly from the source book.
