Earthquake
Earthquake dreams represent fundamental disruption — something shaking the very foundations of your life or beliefs. These dreams often appear during major life changes: divorce, job loss, health crises, or identity shifts. The intensity of the earthquake reflects how deeply you feel the change affects your core stability.
Snow
Snow represents purity, stillness, and the covering or concealment of what lies beneath. Fresh snow suggests new beginnings and a clean slate. Melting snow indicates the thawing of emotions or the revelation of hidden truths. Being trapped in snow reflects emotional numbness or isolation. Snowfall can be peaceful (gentle transformation) or threatening (blizzard, burial).
