Discover the dream symbol interpretation and spiritual meaning

Hindu

Dreams containing anger symbolize a conflict with or negative feelings for someone you consider a close friend.

Jungian

A person who can process anger easily will feel anxiety in a dream, but not anger. If you are clearly angry in your dream, then look for how you might be repressing anger in daily life. This is an emotion, which we learn early to repress, and each of us processes anger in different ways. Therefore, you may dream about other characters acting with anger against you. This is the only way the person 'who is never angry' will have of processing and integrating this 'unpleasant' emotion. A ferocious animal attacking you is a clear example of how anger is portrayed in a dream. Since you cannot own the emotion during the day, you experience it as something 'wild and uncontrollable' attacking you in the dream.

Islamic (Ibn Sirin)

Leaving one’s home angry in a dream means entering a prison. If one gets angry for material gains in a dream, it means that he has disdain and contempt toward God’s religion. However, should he get angry in his dream to defend God’s rights, then it means gaining strength and power. Becoming angry for someone else’s sake in a dream signifies a corrupt contract, a tainted agreement, a marriage consent with a hidden intent of a divorce to follow, fighting for unlawful earnings, or it could mean accumulating money from usury. In a dream, usury and anger mean falsehood in wakefulness. (See Foam; Frothing at the mouth; Sneezing; Suppressing one’s anger)
