The hugs are, next to kiss, one of the greatest signs of closeness and affection. However, you don't have to be a loving person to dream that they give you a hug since, although in reality it has an obvious meaning, in a dream it can be interpreted in a thousand different ways.

What is the meaning of dreaming of giving a hug?

Normally, a hug symbolizes existence of a beautiful relationship with the person you give it to. The usual thing is that this person is an acquaintance in real life, that a stranger does not appear suddenly in the dream. A friend, your girlfriend, even your mother ... all of them are candidates to appear in your dreams in which you hug them tenderly as a sign of affection. If they are having a bad time, you may feel condescending and during the night the subconscious reminds you to pay more attention and comfort them.

However, dreaming of giving hugs can mean other things, since It is not the same to dream of hugging a close person (represents closeness and personal bond) that a stranger approaches you to wrap your arms around you (a sign of mistrust of society). It is important to take into account the context and your mood to make an accurate interpretation of your dream. Details matter a lot.

Dreaming that you hug an object

Were you hugging an object? It symbolizes a materialistic personality if what you have in your arms is a chest full of silver (see the meaning of dream of silver). On the other hand, if you are clinging to a tree, it indicates your close connection with nature and your concern for the environment.

Dreaming of giving a protective hug

Dreaming of giving a hug as a sign of protection is one of the most beautiful dreams that exist, because they leave a feeling of inner peace that will wake you up calm and happy. Independiently of it have you dreamed of a friend or with the spirit of a dead relative, the mind suggests closeness and affection.

Even if it is someone you have not seen in a long time, you will feel that you are close to him and that will comfort you. When you are going through a time of happiness, you may dream of an enemy who tries to hug you, or someone who wants to take advantage of your success. This occurs because you feel that envy circulates around you and you must remain alert.

Dreaming that a hug is rejected

Are you afraid of rejection? In this case, you will be able to notice how that person you were trying to give a hug leans backEither because you are afraid that it will remake you, or because you have argued strongly and you are afraid that you will not fix things. Thinking they can turn their back on you creates frustration when you sleep. The best way to solve it is to speak things clearly. In addition, dreaming of hugs can also have negative interpretations.

Dreaming that you cry and they give you a hug

Moreover, dream of crying and that a friend hugs you it is an indication of the need for affection. Trust your friends to solve your problems. They are there for the good times and the bad. Do you have a strong desire to be hugged? It means that you have emotional deficiencies. Have you distanced yourself from your partner? Doesn't it make the same case to you anymore? Did you lose your family and miss them?
