Dreaming of a snake

Dreaming of a snake is one of the dreams Korean tradition has the most to say about.

What it traditionally means

A snake is read as wealth and vitality arriving quietly, and it is one of the symbols most often called a taemong.

What changes the reading

Being bitten is read as the lucky version in the old books, while killing or chasing off the snake is read as refusing something that came in an unfamiliar shape.

What to do with it

Give the odd opportunity one honest look before you say no.

Reading a dream of a snake is a way of looking at what is already on your mind rather than a forecast of an event, and nothing here is health or medical information.

Where it sits in the Five Elements
