Lice are a common problem that can be found in areas where a lot of children and people gather. Lice are small parasites that live on the scalp of humans and other warm-blooded animals. They can live in your hair, but they usually only cause problems when they start to grow. They can cause itching and discomfort for their hosts, but most people don’t even know they have them because lice look like tiny bugs with six legs.
Lice are not a common symbol in dreams, so if you have dreamed of lice, it means something important that you should pay immediate attention to. So, what does it mean to dream about lice?
You Have To Declutter Your Life
In a dream, lice signify dirtiness, uncleanliness, and vanity. They could indicate that you should clean up your life and get rid of the clutter. Lice do not always mean that you should improve personal hygiene. Rather, it means that you do not have an organized life or environment around you. Clutter can lead to stress, reduce productivity and prevent, for example, money from flowing into our lives, so set a day at least once a week to clean your house carefully and throw out what doesn’t belong in your purse or wallet (old receipts, tickets from urban transport, etc.) which prevents new energy from flowing into your life.
Having a clutter-free space will allow you to focus on the things that are most important to you, and it can also increase your sense of well-being and happiness.
You’re Not Taking A Proper Care of Yourself
Lice often appear in dreams to warn us that we do not take proper care of ourselves. Often this dream speaks of our physical and mental health. Go to the hairdresser or for a massage. Invite yourself to the spa hotel and enjoy a relaxing weekend. Or, if you suspect an illness, do not delay and contact your doctor. Maybe you are the type of person who likes to help others. However, it is time that you must first take care of yourself in order to take care of others.
The dream of lice is a sign that we do not take care of ourselves enough or forget about ourselves because we try to satisfy the needs of others.
Something’s “Eating You” Alive
If you’ve ever had lice, you know how uncomfortable it is. Sometimes it may even feel like lice are “eating” you alive. In dreams, lice can indicate that there is something in your life that “eats you alive”. These can be negative thoughts (such as what other people think of you), doubts, or financial or other issues. Often this is something that will not let you sleep because your mind is constantly working, thinking, or creating the worst-case scenarios.
This dream can be a warning one, because if you don’t do something about your situation, it can escalate.
Bottom Line
Dreams are a way for us to connect with our inner wisdom. By interpreting your dreams, you can gain deeper insight into what’s going on in your life and learn the meaning of your current circumstances. Lice in a dream are just a symbol, so that doesn’t mean you have or will have lice. Instead, focus on what lice symbolize and what this symbol could mean in your waking life.
