If a dreamer dreams of lighting a fire for illumination, or if they dream that someone else has lit a fire, or if the room or surroundings are illuminated by a fire whose origin is unknown, it could be an indication that the dreamer is in a state of exploration and curiosity. By investigating and pursuing the meaning of the dream, the dreamer may gain insight and awareness.
If a dreamer dreams that their clothing is burned by a lit fire, it could signify harm or injury. Additionally, if their hand is burned in the dream, it could suggest that they may experience damage or injury to one of their body parts.
On the other hand, if the dreamer dreams of sitting next to a fire but is forced to move away due to the intense heat, it could indicate that they may be the subject of gossip or negative talk behind their back. They may encounter criticism and fault-finding from others in different settings.
According to old scholars, the act of removing fire in a dream could signify consuming forbidden property or taking advantage of an orphan’s possessions. While fire is typically destructive, if one dreams of lighting a fire without being burned, it could indicate future success and accomplishment.
However, if a dreamer dreams of being thrown into a fire and wakes up in fear, it could suggest that they will be oppressed by a powerful source. On the other hand, if the dreamer is unscathed by the fire, it could imply that they may embark on a journey with little or no benefit to themselves.
Dream interpretation of coal and fire
According to Mohammad Bin Sirin, dreaming of coal could indicate forbidden property. If the dreamer takes coal from someone or somewhere, it could signify acquiring forbidden property. Conversely, if the dreamer places coal on a fire and ignites it, it may suggest that they will conduct business with a king, and benefit from their property. However, if the dreamer’s clothes or body turn black, it could mean that they will experience grief and misfortune.
Dreaming of burning coal could signify difficult times and a longing for something better. If the coal burns strongly, it may indicate an increase in wealth and happiness, as well as a pure and blameless life.
The interpretation of seeing fire smoke in a dream
In a dream, smoke can signify either war, sedition, sadness, or boredom. It can represent a type of melancholy that brings on feelings of depression without necessarily making one cry. All the factors that cause one’s heart to be sad and ultimately lead to depression and boredom may appear in the form of smoke in a dream.
War and sedition may also symbolize serious business conflicts or family disputes, such as an argument between husband and wife or a conflict between children and parents. If smoke is seen coming from the sky and descending to the ground instead of rising from the ground and ascending to the sky, it is a stronger indication.
If the sky over one’s home is filled with smoke to the point where the source is unclear, it suggests that there will be a family problem, causing one to feel upset and sad.
If one sees cigarette smoke or a small amount of smoke, the depression or sadness will be minor and will pass quickly. If one sees smoke rising from their house and going away, it is better than seeing smoke coming into the house from an external source. If smoke comes from the kitchen, one may have a disagreement with their spouse, and they may feel offended by them.
If one sees smoke rising from their clothes, it may indicate that people are speaking ill of them behind their back and questioning their character. If one sees a stream of smoke coming towards them, it could indicate that bad news is coming.
Firewood and fire dream interpretation
In dreams, the sight of firewood signifies a future of unrest, conflict, and distress. Firewood has been viewed as an omen of war by many experts, and this may be traced back to a poem by Saadi which likens war to fire and considers China the hapless woodcutter caught in the middle. Therefore, the presence of firewood in a dream may indicate that war and strife are on the horizon.
In any case, firewood has historically been associated with ideas of conflict and disturbance, and if you find yourself preoccupied with gathering firewood in a dream, it could be interpreted as a sign that you are inadvertently fanning the flames of discord and turmoil.
