Dream H

Hair

Hair has wide-ranging symbolic significance. In popular belief, the white hair of old men and women is seen as a sign of wisdom. Black hair is connected with great passion, while blond hair is seen as a sigh on inconstancy. Red-haired people are considered dangerous.

Hare

In the middle Ages, the hare was a symbol for God. Three hares in a picture symbolize the Trinity, which continuously keeps watch and sees and hears everything. It is only recently that the hare has degenerated from being a symbol of fertility to being exclusively a sexual symbol.

Hearth, kitchen-range (stove)

The domestic hearth is a symbol of marriage; it is the focus for family activity. Its significance is, however, wider ranging. In the hearth, the energy of the fire transforms, so to speak, foodstuffs into all-important food for the family. (Of course nowadays its cooking function has been taken over by the electric or gas stove). The hearth thus has the significance of a symbol of transformation and of life itself. It is a serious sigh if the fire in the hearth goes out in a dream. Similar dream images appear in presentiments of death in the family.

Horse

The horse is a dream symbol of great significance. Dream research has to some extent confirmed the popular superstition that the horse is a messenger of death.

Hospital

The hospital appears as an image of spiritual illness and impoverishment. The specific departments in a hospital or clinic refer to corresponding psychic functions. Heart disease, for example, refers to emotional disorders, eye trouble refers to the failure to see a problem or a relationship with someone in its true light, a stomach ailment indicates that a situation of conflict has become 'indigestible' and is thus causing illness, etc.

Hotel

The dream image of a hotel refers to areas or situations which bring transition or changes with them. The hotel is not a place where people live permanently; new people are encountered there. Translated into dream language, this would mean that the people whom the dreamer meets in the hotel embody unconscious or unknown psychic influences.

House

There are medieval pictorial representations of man in the form of a house. What is meant here is the house of the soul. In a dream, the house also assumes this symbolic meaning, and the individual rooms can be interpreted correspondingly. The cellar is the realm of the unconscious. The kitchen, in which psychic nourishment is prepared, is the province of female and motherly aspects. The living room and study have exactly this significance for the psyche's area of experience. The bedroom is the marital sexual domain and the attic has, in a dream, the meaning of an area of forgotten or suppressed memories

Haggard

To see a haggard face in your dreams denotes you will meet with defeat in your love affair or it may promise business losses. Your own face appearing haggard may mean you are in for a bout of ill health for yourself, or the ill health of a business enterprise. Your haggard face and a feeling of being tired means you should slow down and rest before illness strikes.

Hail

To hear hail beating on your roof or windows shows you will be having some trying times very soon. If you are in a hail storm all your endeavors will meet with poor results. If you see hail stones fall through the sunshine then will good fortune smile on you.

Hair

If you dream of finding a hair in a piece of butter and it does not disgust you then you will be fortunate in all your dealings. You will take a long trip if you dream of combing beautiful hair. Ruffle someones hair and you will come into money. To dream you are getting bald foretells your generosity will cause you loss and mental anguish. Seeing your hair turning gray shows death or disease in the family. If a woman dreams of comparing black and white hairs show that she will receive two offers and must choose the best one.

Hairdresser

For a woman to dream of going to a hairdresser shows she will soon be entangled in some family scandal concerning the morals of a member of her family. Should she have her hair dyed, she will narrowly escape imprisonment. For a man to dream of a hairdresser will presage much gossip or a need to dominate a beautiful woman.

Hairy Hands

If you see yourself with hairy hands this denotes that you will bear false witness against someone who is guiltless. The longer the hair the worse the lie. To see the hair fading away shows there are those who will block you from harming this person.

Hallways

There is not much significance to a hallway other then denoting an abnormal period of worry and concern, so this dream should be interpreted using the other symbols in the dream and reserving hallways under, 'worries'.

Halter

If you dream of putting a halter on a horse this denotes that you have someone you wish to lead around to your way of thinking, etc.. If you see a halter on a young horse shows that you will have prosperous business dealings with a certain person.

Ham

If you dream of eating ham then you will lose something that means a lot to you. Dreaming about curing a ham denotes that you are being thrifty and that success will be yours in due time. If you dream of seeing hams then this shows that you are in some sort of emotional danger from a person close to you.

Hand

If you dream you see blood on your hands this denotes you will feel guilty if you do not aid a person for whom you could help better their life. If you have an injury to your hand it shows that someone else will garner the rewards that are rightfully yours. Large hands show that you will go far in life towards achieving your goals. If you see a detached hand then you are destined for a solitary life if you do not change your ways. If you dream your hands are tied you will have difficulty in completing something that you have begun.

Handbills

If you dream of printing and distributing handbills this denotes that you will hear some unfavorable news concerning a pending lawsuit. If you dream you are writing them for distribution you are about to let a secret out that someone has trusted you with.

Handcuffs

If you find yourself handcuffed in a dream this shows that you will be beset by enemies. If you see a pair of handcuffs this will show that there is a possible illness for you in the near future. If you see someone else handcuffed then you will overcome all your enemies and win out.

Handkerchiefs

If you lose your handkerchief in a dream it is an omen showing that your engagement is in danger of breaking up. If your hankie is torn then the lover's quarrels will be so bad that you will not be able to make up. If you see a stack of pure white handkerchiefs it shows that you will hold yourself true to your betrothed and enter into wedded bliss. Waving good-bye with it may denote disgrace for the dreamer.

Haunting

To dream you are the victim of haunting by the spirit, or supernatural side, shows that you have many things on your mind, and/or things that 'come back to haunt you'. Use all the parts of your dream to find out just what situation in your life is haunting you and put your mind at ease.

Hats

This is a variable dream and depends more on the action in the dream rather then the hat itself. These are a few meanings: A new elaborate hat denotes a rise in status and good luck, while old shabby hats are a wide range of bad luck; if you lose your hat you will have a loss of finances, etc..

Hieroglyphics

Home (family)

If you dream of visiting your old family home you will hear some very good news. If the home itself, is in a dilapidated condition and general neglect, this then is an omen that you will soon hear of the death of a close relative or a very dear friend. If you go home and find everything much the same as it was and you feel and express joy in the dream you will find love and joy in your present home.

Horse

If you dream of a herd of wild horses roaming wild and free it could be a fantasy wish fulfillment for your waking daydreams of freedom from cares and responsibility. To dream of riding a dark horse shows that you will be successful in your business but use shady dealings to get where you are. If your dream is of white, or light colored horses then your fortune or your love is assured.

Hospital

To dream that you are a patient in a hospital shows that you may soon be exposed to some contagious disease and there is the possibility that you will contract it. If you are only visiting a hospital then you will be able to avoid the illness. To see a friend in a hospital shows that you will soon here some distressing news about that person.

Hugging

If a woman dreams she is hugging other men then her husband, she will become involved in an affair that could threaten her marriage. If you dream of hugging in a general way, you will lose your lover or your business. Hugging itself is a show of affection, but in a dream it is not a very good omen, the effects of which could be toned down to a general warning if the other signs in the dream allow it.
