What can be found in Miller's dream book
Psychologists believe that a person who is able to control a flame in a dream has a number of positive qualities. If you dreamed that everything around was sparkling, it means that the emotional sphere is overflowing. What you see means a lot of heated debates in business circles, at meetings that will lead to the dreamer proving the correctness of his position.
Explaining why one dreams of lighting a fire, Miller’s dream book attaches importance to the following details:
- the flame quickly goes out - to despondency;
- sparks fly in all directions - to disputes, debates;
- reflections are visible far away - to acquaintance, making friends;
- seeing measured combustion means profit.
Listen to yourself!
If you happened to light a fire on the bank of a river, then the dream book advises you to prepare for a real fire, near the house - for the harm that you will cause through your own actions, in the forest - for a real hike.
If in a dream you happened to light a fire near your house, then expect news that will surprise you beyond words. I dreamed of many hotbeds - listen to your premonitions and use your intuition to solve problems.
Seeing a fire burning right in the house means that you will soon gain strength. This vision also predicts prosperity in business. And a fire in the forest reminds you that you urgently need to solve a certain problem.
Feel free to make plans for the future
Helping someone light a fire in a dream means living together, developing an important project. The dream means that you have to get involved in scrupulous, but very interesting work. Acquiring allies and meeting like-minded people is exactly what one dreams of keeping firewood and branches burning.
The dream book of Nostradamus prophesies a holiday in glorious company if you dreamed that fiery reflections were visible throughout the surrounding area. At the same time, you will be the center of attention and will be able to win the affection of others.
The meaning of the image of a fire in a dream
More than one generation of researchers has been deciphering the images that come to a person during sleep. And if in ancient times visions were considered exclusively as an esoteric phenomenon, today another way of interpreting dreams has appeared - psychoanalytic. According to this point of view, all dream symbols are a subconscious reflection of real emotions experienced by the dreamer the day before. Esotericism considers dreams as signals from the subtle worlds, warning about the future.
The image of a fire belongs to somnological symbols, which researchers call dual. This means that this symbol can have many meanings, and they are not exclusively positive or negative.

In any case, for the most accurate interpretation of the image of fire or a bonfire in a dream, one should rely on the plot data of the dream, namely:
- Human actions in relation to the fire;
- Fire location;
- The identity of the person having the dream.
Let us consider separately each of the above nuances of the dream plot.
Depending on human actions
The nature of the interpretation of the dream, both positive and negative, depends on a person’s actions in relation to fire in a dream. Thus:
- Lighting a large fire , from which black smoke appears, means that in reality you will find yourself in an unpleasant situation or an annoying misunderstanding will occur in your life;
- Lighting a fire in a stove in a dream means that the dreamer will soon feel the strength to accomplish many things. Such a dream portends success in all endeavors;
- Seeing a fire burning in the distance and walking into the light of the fire indicates that there is a problem in the dreamer’s life that requires an immediate solution;
- Jumping and dancing around a bright fire in a dream means that bad thoughts are ripening in your head. Try to get rid of them completely;
- Seeing strange mythical creatures dancing in flames, according to Vanga’s dream book, is a bad sign. Perhaps an unscrupulous person is trying to spoil you;
- putting out a fire at the end of a passionate affair with a person you still love. Trying to put out the fire in the hearth is not a good idea to start new things, as they will end in failure. If you believe the interpretations of Longo’s dream book, if you put out the fire in a fire with your own hands, you will face failure in one matter on which great hopes are pinned. However, you should not worry about this, since all difficulties are temporary. Sooner or later you will be able to get out of trouble;
- If you dream that you are trying to light a fire without much success, then in the near future you will be completely consumed by chores and household chores. However, in this case, you should not put all your responsibilities on your loved ones;
- Seeing other people seated around the fire means heated arguments that will not lead to a compromise;
- Burning some things at the stake in a dream means that in reality a person will abandon his own principles and will pay for it;
- If you manage to ignite a flame, the tongues of which rise to the very sky , scattering sparks, in reality you will be overcome by bad premonitions. However, if you cook your food on this fire, the dream promises prosperity in the house.
An extinguished fire that cannot be rekindled, according to Longo’s dream book, will symbolize the collapse of all hopes. If the extinguished flame emits a ghostly light, your hopes will be in vain.
Depending on the location of the fire
The location of the fire in a dream is also of great importance for the interpretation of the image. Thus, if in a dream a fire is lit in the forest , night dreams are deciphered depending on the details of the plot:
- A dream in which you make a fire in the thicket of a forest is a dream about an upcoming hike in the company of friends (according to the 21st century Dream Book);
- If in a dream you happened to light a fire in the forest in the presence of a loved one, it means your feelings are filled with sincerity and mutual respect. You have complete mutual understanding, common interests, and also have excellent prospects for the future (according to Freud’s dream book);
- Looking at the dying flames and seeing the ashes falling onto the coals means that you are nostalgic for a time that will never be returned;
- Collecting firewood in the forest in order to start a fire, dreams of an upcoming quarrel or disagreement with a loved one;
- Going into the forest to prepare firewood for the winter in a dream means that you will have to try very hard to achieve your goal.
If you dream of a fire or a bonfire near a house , the dream meanings may be as follows:
- If you dreamed of a fire burning near a house, according to Miller’s dream book, you should expect guests in the near future, whom the owners will be extremely happy about;
- Watching a flame blaze in the garden near your home - such a dream means that all the work and efforts of the dreamer will soon pay off, and he will receive considerable profit;
- For a farmer, the image of a fire near his house foreshadows a rich harvest, which he will be able to sell at a favorable price;
- A house fire , according to Miller’s dream book, is a dream of absolute happiness or good luck. However, if you extinguish it, you will destroy your happiness with your own hands;
- If you dream that you are putting out a fire near your home, Miller’s dream book warns that temporary setbacks will soon occur in business.
You should also pay attention to other possible locations of a fire in a dream:
- Lighting a fire on the river bank means that perhaps a real fire will soon occur in the sleeper’s house;
- Looking at a flame being lit in nature foreshadows a natural disaster;
- Seeing a fire floating on water means that an unscrupulous person is plotting against the sleeping person;
- Watching bright flames in a cave in a dream is a prediction in reality, which will certainly come true.
Seeing will-o'-the-wisps in a cemetery - such a dream can symbolize betrayal and betrayal on the part of people close to you.
Depending on the personality of the dreamer
The meaning of a dream about a bonfire or fire also depends on the gender of the dreamer. Women are much more receptive than men on a spiritual level. Therefore, their dreams are more colorful and imaginative, and the very interpretation of fire in a dream may differ. Representatives of the fair sex should give preference to the interpretations of the Women's Dream Book, according to which:
- If a young girl dreams of a fire near her house , this is a sign that she will soon meet a young man who will become her betrothed;
- If a woman collects dry branches for a fire, she is dissatisfied with her sex life and wants changes;
- Kindling a flame with an unknown young man is a sign for a girl of a fateful meeting with her future husband. Moreover, if the flame is high and bright, the marriage will be successful; if there is thick smoke and the fire is almost invisible, the husband will turn out to be a bad person;
- If a woman cooks fish on a fire in a dream, she will gain material well-being in the near future;
- , pouring water on a flame in a dream means prolonged loneliness and melancholy.
Special for both a man and a woman, according to Freud’s dream book, is a dream in which he or she sees a representative of the opposite sex burning at the stake . According to the famous psychoanalyst, a married man who dreams of burning a woman is eager to have a mistress. A woman who has such a dream, in turn, secretly dreams of a threesome.
Pay attention to health
But why you dream of trying to light a fire and not have success, Nostradamus’s dream book explains as follows. Damp firewood and matches symbolize stagnation in business. Disappointment and loss of enthusiasm await you if you happen to see that the wood was smoldering, but could not flare up.
In addition, Vanga is in a hurry to warn about an impending illness if she accidentally gets burned in her sleep. The healer advises you to monitor your diet and lead a healthy lifestyle. In addition, an empty fireplace can symbolize a bad mood and mental anguish. To avoid getting depressed, try to occupy yourself with an exciting hobby, or simply an interesting and useful activity.

Interpretation of a dream according to Freud's dream book
Psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud believes that the temperature and size of a fire flame in a dream directly depend on the strength of people’s love relationships. The larger the fire in the dream, the greater the passion and desire of the person in love in reality. If the fire has almost burned out, then, like a fire, love will soon burn out.
