What does it mean to dream about weapons ? Is it good or bad to dream about weapons? Dreams about weapons have both real-life influences and reactions, as well as the dreamer's subjective imagination. Please see the detailed explanation of dreams about weapons below.

　　To dream of wielding weapons in the rain is a bad omen.

　　A hero's dream of wielding weapons in the rain foretells that he will not achieve fame or success; his talents will be buried.

　　Dreaming of weapons can sometimes be symbolic.

　　A woman's dream of a man attacking her with weapons often represents the man's sexual desire for her. In the dream, the woman often sees a man rushing towards her with knives and guns and is frightened, running away in a hurry. However, in reality, these dreamers crave a more proactive and aggressive approach from the man. What the dreamer truly fears is her own inner desire: the desire to be conquered by a man, the desire for a man to sexually possess her.

　　For men, dreaming of weapons can sometimes be symbolic, especially when the "enemy" in the dream is female. At other times, however, it represents aggression, hostility, and anger. But most of the time, the victim and the aggressor are both yourself—different parts of your psyche. Sometimes, weapons are used for self-defense against formidable enemies, which often indicates that your life is overly stressful and anxious.
