The image of a multi-headed snake could be a terrifying picture to paint. However, dreaming about it is a different experience altogether.
Seeing unusual creatures in your dreams are symbolic of emotions that you may be repressing or dealing with heavily as of the moment.
What does a dream of a multi-headed snake mean?
A dream of a multi-headed snake could have lots of representations. Here are some of them.
Symbolic of confusion
It is possible that you need to make an important decision in your life right now, one that makes you choose between two or more things. You are confused about which one to choose, and which one is best for you.
There are a lot of things plaguing your decision, and you don’t quite know which is the best criteria to make your selection.
You may also be thinking about having the best of both worlds, and not having to choose between or amongst a lot of different decisions at all. This could be a reason why you are dreaming of a multi-headed snake.
Symbolic of different emotions
Often, dreaming of a multi-headed snake is symbolic of having a lot of strong emotions about different things that may be burdening you as of the moment.
It is possible that one particular topic or person is making you feel different emotions, that range from positive to negative ones.
This fact in itself is confusing you – you have been brought up and conditioned to think that if you love someone, the only emotion you can have about that person are pleasant ones.
This is a very rigid way to live. People are fluid, and you are allowed to have different emotions regarding the same person.
Let yourself feel what you are feeling and don’t pressure yourself to figure it out too much. The answers will come to you when you are able to let go and trust that you are always on the right track.
Symbolic of fear
A multi-headed snake in your dream could be symbolic of something that you fear in your life. There may be something that is causing your peace, and making you have doubts about yourself.
The best thing to do is to not take these fears too seriously. Let the thought or emotion just pass through you – there is no need to dwell on them or think about them heavily. Every time this happens, just dance and flow with it.
You will realize that you are able to allow life to just be, without needing it to be any particular way in order for you to be happy. In this way, you are able to shore up your power even more.
Symbolic of betrayal
A snake is a common symbol of betrayal and falseness. Dreaming of a multi-headed snake may symbolize your insecurity regarding your current state.
You may be dealing with people whom you do not trust, and this is causing an uneasy feeling inside of you. Try to check why you are feeling this way, and trust your gut about it.
Symbolic of intuition
The snake is also a symbol of gut feel and instinctive powers. Dreaming of a multi-headed snake may be symbolic of the great power you wield in whatever situation you find yourself in right now.
Just go with what your guidance is telling you and trust it fully. There is a reason why these are your thoughts and this is how you feel with different people. Just observe it and don’t hold on too tightly – the answers will come to you soon.
Symbolic of control
The multi-headed snake has been a powerful symbol of control in a lot of historical folklore and cultures. There are people who play music via a pipe and the snake follows what the musician does.
The snake also goes with the tune. You may be wanting to control a certain person or situation in your life right now, but can’t quite figure out how to do it yet. Try to ask yourself why you want to control this person to begin with.
Then see how you can adjust your own energy before being dependent on what another does or how another person behaves. You will see how you will be able to get so much more control of your life in this way.
Symbolic of underhanded power
There may be people who are wanting to manipulate you in some way. Or this may be the energy that you are experiencing in your life right now.
Try to see why this is so. If it bothering you, remove yourself from the situation so you can establish your own energy before you are too affected by what others do or say.
